Administration (GSA). NNSA owns the 

portion of the BFC known as the KCP, 

consisting of approximately 122 acres 

and 38 buildings. GSA owns the 

remainder of the BFC, consisting of 

approximately 175 acres and 13 

buildings. The KCP shares individual 

buildings and utilities with GSA 

operations at the BFC. The property is 

currently zoned M3–5, manufacturing. 

No wetlands are present on the KCP. 

There are no residences and no 

agricultural activities or farmlands on 

the KCP. The adjoining properties are 

mostly residential with isolated 

commercial tracts, except along the 

eastern and northern sides, which have 

been designated for public and 

recreational uses. 

The KCP has been extensively 

characterized for the presence of legacy 

contamination that might impact soils 

and groundwater at the site. Active 

remediation has taken place at 

previously identified solid waste 

management units, and NNSA 

continues to implement environmental 

remedies. On August 24, 2012, NNSA 

received final permit modifications for 

the existing Missouri Hazardous Waste 

Management Facility Part I Permit and 

the existing Hazardous and Solid Waste 

Amendments of 1984 Part II Permit from 

the Missouri Department of Natural 

Resources and the U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA). Those permit 

modifications require NNSA and GSA to 

conduct further environmental 

investigation, monitoring, and risk 

assessment, and will allow better 

coordination of environmental 

investigations. 

Beginning in 2013, NNSA will 

relocate its operations from the KCP to 

a newly constructed industrial campus 

8 miles south of the BFC. NNSA’s 

relocation of operations to the new 

facility was analyzed in an EA that GSA 

completed in 2008 and DOE adopted 

(DOE/EA–1592). When the move is 

completed, the KCP property at the BFC 

will be excess to the needs of NNSA’s 

mission and will be available for 

transfer. 

GSA is continuing to evaluate its 

options to potentially relocate its 

operations to a new location away from 

the BFC. If GSA decides to relocate its 

operations, its real property at the BFC 

also could be available for transfer. 

Purpose and Need for Agency Action. 

The purpose and need for agency action 

is to transfer the KCP as excess Federal 

property in an environmentally safe and 

fiscally responsible manner. This would 

enable NNSA to reduce its operational 

footprint and reduce operational and 

maintenance costs. 

Proposed Action and No Action 

Alternative. The proposed action is to 

transfer the NNSA’s KCP property either 

in whole or in part. In October 2011, 

NNSA issued a notice of availability via 

the Federal Business Opportunities Web 

site soliciting proposals of interest for 

the transfer, sale, or lease of the KCP. 

Through this ongoing notice of 

availability process, NNSA identified a 

preferred planning partner and 

determined that only land uses 

consistent with current zoning are 

feasible. Based on preliminary 

discussions with the preferred planning 

partner, and input received during the 

scoping process for the now-cancelled 

EIS, NNSA’s Environmental Assessment 

for the Transfer of the Kansas City Plant, 

Kansas City, Missouri (the KCP Transfer 

EA) will consider the No Action 

Alternative, where NNSA relocates 

operations from the KCP and maintains 

ownership of its property; and the 

Proposed Action Alternative, where 

NNSA transfers the KCP property for 

mixed use (industrial, warehouse, 

commercial, office). Under the proposed 

action, the EA will address the potential 

direct, indirect, and cumulative impacts 

of using the KCP property for uses 

consistent with current zoning. NNSA 

will also analyze the potential 

environmental impacts of partial and/or 

complete demolition of some KCP 

structures.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. What information is EPA particularly 

interested in? 

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

(44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), EPA 

specifically solicits comments and 

information to enable it to: 

1. 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. 

2. Evaluate the accuracy of the 

Agency’s estimates of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used. 

3. Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected. 

4. 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. In 

particular, EPA is requesting comments 

from very small businesses (those that 

employ less than 25) on examples of 

specific additional efforts that EPA 

could make to reduce the paperwork 

burden for very small businesses 

affected by this collection. 

II. What should I consider when I 

prepare my comments for EPA? 

You may find the following 

suggestions helpful for preparing your 

comments: 

1. Explain your views as clearly as 

possible and provide specific examples. 

2. Describe any assumptions that you 

used. 

3. Provide copies of any technical 

information and/or data you used that 

support your views. 

4. If you estimate potential burden or 

costs, explain how you arrived at the 

estimate that you provide. 

5. Provide specific examples to 

illustrate your concerns. 

6. Offer alternative ways to improve 

the collection activity. 

7. Make sure to submit your 

comments by the deadline identified 

under DATES. 

8. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, 

be sure to identify the docket ID number 

assigned to this action in the subject 

line on the first page of your response. 

You may also provide the name, date, 

and Federal Register citation. 

III. What information collection activity 

or ICR does this action apply to? 

Affected entities: Entities potentially 

affected by this ICR are companies that 

manufacture, process, import, or 

distribute in commerce a chemical 

substance or mixture and that obtain 

information that reasonably supports 

the conclusion that such chemical 

substance or mixture presents a 

substantial risk of injury to health or the 

environment. 

Title: Notification of Substantial Risk 

of Injury to Health and the Environment 

under TSCA Section 8(e). 

ICR number: EPA ICR No. 0794.13. 

OMB control number: OMB Control 

No. 2070–0046. 

ICR status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on June 30, 2013. 

An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, 

and a person is not required to respond 

to, a collection of information, unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. The OMB control numbers for 

EPA’s regulations in title 40 of the Code 

of Federal Regulations (CFR), after 

appearing in the Federal Register when 

approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, 

are displayed either by publication in 

the Federal Register or by other 

appropriate means, such as on the 

related collection instrument or form, if 

applicable. The display of OMB control 

numbers for certain EPA regulations is 

consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. 

Abstract: Section 8(e) of the Toxic 

Substances Control Act (TSCA) requires 

that any person who manufactures, 

imports, processes, or distributes in 

commerce a chemical substance or 

mixture and which obtains information 

that reasonably supports the conclusion 

that such chemical substance or mixture 

presents a substantial risk of injury to 

health or the environment must 

immediately inform EPA of such 

information. This information collection 

refers to that reporting requirement. 

EPA routinely disseminates TSCA 

section 8(e) data it receives to other 

Federal agencies to provide information 

about newly discovered chemical 

hazards and risks. 

Responses to the collection of 

information are mandatory (see 15 

U.S.C. 2607(e)). Respondents may claim 

all or part of a notice CBI. EPA will 

disclose information that is covered by 

a claim of confidentiality only to the 

extent permitted by, and in accordance 

with, the procedures in TSCA section 14 

and 40 CFR part 2. 

Burden statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to range between 5 and 51 

hours per response, depending on 

whether the response is an initial or 

follow-up submission. Burden means 

the total time, effort, or financial 

resources expended by persons to 

generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or 

provide information to or for a Federal 

agency. This includes the time needed 

to review instructions; develop, acquire, 

install, and utilize technology and 

systems for the purposes of collecting, 

validating, and verifying information, 

processing and maintaining 

information, and disclosing and 

providing information; adjust the 

existing ways to comply with any 

previously applicable instructions and 


wreier-aviles on DSK5TPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 231 / Friday, November 30, 2012 / Notices 71417 

requirements which have subsequently 

changed; train personnel to be able to 

respond to a collection of information; 

search data sources; complete and 

review the collection of information; 

and transmit or otherwise disclose the 

information. 

The ICR provides a detailed 

explanation of this estimate, which is 

only briefly summarized here: 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 546. 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 1.3. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

28,741 hours. 

Estimated total annual costs: 

$1,936,264. This includes an estimated 

burden cost of $1,936,264 and an 

estimated cost of $0 for capital 

investment or maintenance and 

operational costs. 

IV. Are there changes in the estimates 

from the last approval? 

There is a decrease of 1,774 hours in 

the total estimated respondent burden 

compared with that identified in the ICR 

currently approved by OMB. This 

decrease reflects EPA’s updated 

projection of the number of TSCA 

section 8(e) submissions that the 

Agency expects to receive in the next 3 

years. This change is an adjustment. 

V. What is the next step in the process 

for this ICR? 

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 pursuant to 5 CFR 

1320.12. EPA will issue another Federal 

Register document pursuant to 5 CFR 

1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to announce the 

submission of the ICR to OMB and the 

opportunity to submit additional 

comments to OMB. If you have any 

questions about this ICR or the approval 

process, please contact the technical 

person listed under FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT.
