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.

teachers who complete the survey; 

• A SunWise Don’t Fry Day pledge 

form; 

• Sun Safety Certification Tutorial 

questions (for community organizations 

participating in the SunWise program); 

and a 

• Pretest of a SunWise partner survey 

Form Numbers: None.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA has 

transferred CBI to various contractors 

and subcontractors over the history of 

the effluent guidelines program. EPA 

determined that this transfer was 

necessary to enable the contractors and 

subcontractors to perform their work in 

supporting EPA in planning, 

developing, and reviewing effluent 

guidelines and standards for certain 

industries. 

Today, EPA is giving notice that it has 

entered into a contract with Abt, 

contract number EP–C–13–039, located 

in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The 

purpose of this contract is to secure 

economic and environmental analysis 

support for EPA in its development, 

review, implementation, and defense of 

water-related initiatives for a variety of 

industries. To obtain assistance in 

responding to this contract, Abt has 

entered into contracts with the 

following subcontractors: Aqua Terra 

Consultants (located in Mountain View, 

California), Avanti Corporation (located 

in Alexandria, Virginia), Great Lakes 

Environmental Center (located in 

Traverse City, Michigan), Horizon 

Systems Corporation (located in 

Herndon, Virginia), ICF International 

(located in Fairfax, Virginia), PG 

Environmental (located in Herndon, 

Virginia), RPS ASA dba Applied 

Science Associates (located in South 

Kingstown, Rhode Island), and RTI 

International (located in Research

also entered into contracts with the 

following consultants: Robert J. 

Johnston, Ph.D. (located in Millville, 

Massachusetts) and R. Srinivasan, Ph.D.

All EPA contractor, subcontractor, 

and consultant personnel are bound by 

the requirements and sanctions 

contained in their contracts with EPA 

and in EPA’s confidentiality regulations 

found at 40 CFR Part 2, Subpart B. Abt 

will adhere to EPA-approved security 

plans which describe procedures to 

protect CBI. Abt will apply the 

procedures in these plans to CBI 

previously gathered by EPA and to CBI 

that may be gathered in the future. The 

security plans specify that contractor 

personnel are required to sign nondisclosure agreements and are briefed 

on appropriate security procedures 

before they are permitted access to CBI. 

No person is automatically granted 

access to CBI: A need to know must 

exist. 

The information that will be 

transferred to Abt consists of 

information previously collected by 

EPA to support the development and 

review of effluent limitations guidelines 

and standards under the CWA. In 

particular, information, including CBI, 

collected for the planning, development, 

and review of effluent limitations 

guidelines and standards for the 

following industries may be transferred: 

airport deicing; aquaculture; centralized 

waste treatment; coalbed methane; 

concentrated animal feeding operations; 

coal mining; construction and 

development; drinking water treatment; 

industrial container and drum cleaning; 

industrial laundries; industrial waste 

combustors; iron and steel 

manufacturing; landfills; meat and 

poultry products; metal finishing; metal 

products and machinery; nonferrous 

metals manufacturing; oil and gas 

extraction (including coalbed methane); 

ore mining and dressing; organic 

chemicals, plastics, and synthetic fibers; 

pesticide chemicals; petroleum refining; 

pharmaceutical manufacturing; pulp, 

paper, and paperboard manufacturing; 

unconventional oil and gas extraction; 

steam electric power generation; textile 

mills; timber products processing; 

tobacco; and transportation equipment 

cleaning. 

EPA also intends to transfer to Abt all 

information listed in this notice, of the 

type described above (including CBI) 

that may be collected in the future 

under the authority of Section 308 of the 

CWA or voluntarily submitted (e.g., in 

comments in response to a Federal 

Register notice), as is necessary to 

enable Abt to carry out the work 

required by its contract to support EPA’s 

effluent guidelines planning process 

and the development of effluent 

limitations guidelines and standards.
