the core model which contains all

computational algorithms, and a

reporting utility for viewing and

summarizing modeled emissions

estimates. The model has been designed

to allow the user a high degree of

flexibility. As such, the model will:

—Calculate and report emissions in

total for the United States, and for

individual states and counties;

—Calculate emissions for a variety of

time periods (e.g., an entire year, any

particular month, any combination of

months, or daily weekday or weekend

day);

—Report emissions of six pollutants:

hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide

(CO), NOX, sulfur oxides (SOX ), and

PM. The model will report both

exhaust and non-exhaust HC

emissions, the latter of which

includes crankcase, diurnal, refueling,

etc;

—Estimate current and future year

emissions in a specified geographic

area. In estimating future year

emissions, the model includes growth

and scrappage and can accommodate

a variety of control program options;

and

—View model results in different

formats such as an Emission PreProcessor System 2 (EPS–2) input file,

spreadsheet, and preformatted

reports.

The public workshop being

announced today provides a valuable

opportunity for EPA to receive

assistance in developing the final

NONROAD model through review and

comment by all interested users. The

workshop will focus on all aspects of

the model including user convenience,

data inputs and modeling assumptions,

computational structure, and reporting

options and formats. Presentations on

each subject will be followed by a short

discussion/question and answer period,

and there should be some time left at

the end of the day for more general open

discussion of the material that has been

presented. A detailed draft agenda for

the workshop will be posted on the EPA

OMS web site or may be obtained from

the EPA contact person (see FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT).

Availability of Technical Reports and

NONROAD

EPA anticipates the workshop will be

highly interactive. To facilitate this goal,

all participants are encouraged to

review the draft technical reports on

data inputs and assumptions, as well as

the draft NONROAD model and

accompanying user’s guide. These

documents and the model are posted on

the EPA OMS web site or are otherwise

available on CD ROM from the EPA

contact person (see FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT). Please visit this

site often to check for additional

information or model documentation

which may be posted between now and

the workshop date.

Comment Period

The Agency is providing a 60-day

public comment period on the draft

model and associated documents. This

period should be adequate for interested

parties to thoroughly review the

available information, and is consistent

with the guidelines for public review of

EPA emission models the Mobile

Sources Technical Review

Subcommittee of the Clean Air Act

Advisory Committee established under

the Federal Advisory Committee Act.

The comment period will be initiated at

the time the draft NONROAD model is

posted on the EPA OMS web site, which

EPA projects to be on or around June 15,

1998.

Model Demonstration

The Agency will hold a hands-on

demonstration of the model on the same

day, at the same location immediately

after the public workshop. The facility

is capable of seating approximately 20

people at individual personal

computers. This demonstration will be

held on a first come, first serve basis.

Please contact EPA via the NONROAD

E-mail box or the EPA contact person

(see FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT).

Additional Information

To the extent possible, EPA will post

material at the EPA OMS web site, as

described under FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT, in advance of the

workshop. Those planning to attend,

and those interested in following the

progress of workshop planning more

closely, should periodically visit the

EPA OMS web site.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS

COMMISSION

Notice of Public Information

Collections being Reviewed by the

Federal Communications Commission

May 27, 1998.

SUMMARY: The Federal Communications

Commissions, as part of its continuing

effort to reduce paperwork burden

invites the general public and other

Federal agencies to take this

opportunity to comment on the

following information collection, as

required by the Paperwork Reduction

Act of 1995, Public Law 104–13. An

agency may not conduct or sponsor a

collection of information unless it

displays a currently valid control

number. No person shall be subject to

any penalty for failing to comply with

a collection of information subject to the

Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) that

does not display a valid control number.

Comments are requested concerning (a)

whether the proposed collection of

information is necessary for the proper

performance of the functions of the

Commission, including whether the

information shall have practical utility;

(b) the accuracy of the Commission’s

burden estimate; (c) ways to enhance

the quality, utility, and clarity of the

information collected; and (d) ways to

minimize the burden of the collection of

information on the respondents,

including the use of automated

collection techniques or other forms of

information technology.

DATES: Persons wishing to comment on

this information collection should

submit comments [insert date 60 days

from publication in Federal Register].

ADDRESSES: Direct all comments to Judy

Boley, Federal Communications

Commissions, Room 234, 1919 M St.,

NW., Washington, DC 20554 or via

internet to jboley@fcc.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For

additional information or copies of the

information collections contact Judy

Boley at 202–418–0214 or via internet at

jboley@fcc.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

OMB Approval Number: 3060–0139.

Title: Application for Antenna

Structure Registration.

Form No.: FCC 854.

Type of Review: Extension of a

currently approved collection.

Respondents: Individuals, Businesses

or other for-profit; Non-profit

institutions; State, Local or Tribal

Government.

Number of Respondents: 4,500.

Estimated Time Per Response: 30

minutes.

Frequency of Response: On occasion

reporting requirement.

Total Annual Burden: 2,250 hours.

Needs and Uses: Section 303(q) of the

Communications Act, as amended,

authorizes the Commission to require

the painting and/or illumination of

radio towers in cases where there is a

reasonable possibility that an antenna

structure may cause a hazard to air

navigation.The data collected is

required by the Communications Act of

1934, as amended; FCC Rules Section

1.61(a), 17.4, 21.11(g),25.113(c),

73.3533(c), 74.551(c), 74.651(d),

74.1251(d), 78.109(c), 95.83(a)(3),

97.15(d).

This FCC form is to be used for the

purpose of registering structures used

for wire or radio communication

services within the United States, or to

make changes to an existing registered

structure, or to notify the Commmission

of the dismantlement of a structure. The

Commission staff will evaluate the

antenna data submitted by the tower

owner and determine if Part 17 rule

requirements are met and if any

obstruction painting and/or lighting will

be necessary. The tower owner will

receive notification that the Commission

has registered the structure,

modification or dismantlement on FCC

Form 854R, Antenna Structure

Registration. Owners of new and

modified towers must notify the

Commission within 24 hours of

construction completion and/or

disposition of structure, using a portion

of the FCC Form 854R which is

detachable.

The Commission is in the final phase

of completing the initial two year

registration period for the revised

antenna structure registration process.

The form’s data collection remains the

same, however, we estimate a

significant decrease (adjustment) in the

number of total respondents from

43,000 to 4,500 and a decrease in the

total annual burden from 21,500 hours

to 2,250 hours as a result of a reevaluation of receipts due to the

program change implemented two years

ago.

Secretary.
