or before May 2, 2016. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

referencing Docket ID No. EPA–HQ– 

SFUND–2012–0104 online using

Center, Environmental Protection 

Agency, Mail Code 28221T, 1200 

Pennsylvania Ave. NW., Washington,

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 

the PRA, EPA is soliciting comments 

and information to enable it to: (i) 

Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the Agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; (ii) evaluate the 

accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the 

burden of the proposed collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (iv) minimize the burden 

of the collection of information on those 

who are to respond, including through 

the use of appropriate automated 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of 

responses. EPA will consider the 

comments received and amend the ICR 

as appropriate. The final ICR package 

will then be submitted to OMB for 

review and approval. At that time, EPA 

will issue another Federal Register 

notice to announce the submission of 

the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to 

submit additional comments to OMB. 

Abstract: The Small Business Liability 

Relief and Brownfields Revitalization 

Act (Pub. L. 107–118) (‘‘the Brownfields 

Amendments’’) was signed into law on 

January 11, 2002. The Act amends the 

Comprehensive Environmental 

Response, Compensation, and Liability 

Act (CERCLA), as amended, and 

authorizes EPA to award cooperative 

agreements to states, tribes, local 

governments, and other eligible entities 

to assess and clean up brownfield sites. 

Under the Brownfields Amendments, a 

brownfields site means real property, 

the expansion, redevelopment, or reuse 

of which may be complicated by the 

presence or potential presence of a 

hazardous substance, pollutant, or 

contaminant. For funding purposes, 

EPA uses the term ‘‘brownfields 

property(ies)’’ synonymously with the 

term ‘‘brownfields sites.’’ The 

Brownfields Amendments authorize 

EPA to award several types of 

cooperative agreements to eligible 

entities on a competitive basis. 

Under subtitle A of the Small 

Business Liability Relief and 

Brownfields Revitalization Act, states, 

tribes, local governments, and other 

eligible entities can receive assessment 

cooperative agreements to inventory, 

characterize, assess, and conduct 

planning and community involvement 

related to brownfields properties; 

cleanup cooperative agreements to carry 

out cleanup activities at brownfields 

properties; cooperative agreements to 

capitalize revolving loan funds and 

provide subgrants for cleanup activities; 

area-wide planning cooperative 

agreements to develop revitalization 

plans for brownfields; and 

environmental workforce and 

development job training and placement 

programs. Under subtitle C of the Small 

Business Liability Relief and 

Brownfields Revitalization Act, states 

and tribes can receive cooperative 

agreements to establish and enhance 

their response programs through the 

four elements and meet the public 

record requirements under the statute. 

Cooperative agreement recipients 

(‘‘recipients’’) have general reporting 

and record keeping requirements as a 

condition of their cooperative agreement 

that result in burden. A portion of this 

reporting and record keeping burden is 

authorized under 2 CFR part 1500 and 

identified in the EPA’s general grants 

ICR (OMB Control Number 2030–0020). 

EPA requires Brownfields program 

recipients to maintain and report 

additional information to EPA on the 

uses and accomplishments associated 

with funded brownfields activities. EPA 

uses several forms to assist recipients in 

reporting the information and to ensure 

consistency of the information 

collected. EPA uses this information to 

meet Federal stewardship 

responsibilities to manage and track 

how program funds are being spent, to 

evaluate the performance of the 

Brownfields Cleanup and Land 

Revitalization Program, to meet the 

Agency’s reporting requirements under 

the Government Performance Results 

Act, and to report to Congress and other 

program stakeholders on the status and 

accomplishments of the program.
