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 Landfill Methane 

Outreach Program (LMOP), created by 

EPA as part of the United States’ 

commitment to reduce greenhouse gas 

emissions under the United Nations 

Framework Convention on Climate 

Change, is a voluntary program 

designed to encourage and facilitate the 

development of environmentally and 

economically sound landfill gas (LFG) 

energy projects across the United States 

to reduce methane emissions from 

landfills. LMOP meets these objectives 

by educating local governments and 

communities about the benefits of LFG 

recovery and use; building partnerships 

between state agencies, industry, energy 

service providers, local communities, 

and other stakeholders interested in 

developing this valuable resource in 

their community; and providing tools to

Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 140 / Monday, July 26, 2021 / Notices 40045 

evaluate LFG energy potential. LMOP 

signed voluntary Memoranda of 

Understanding (MOUs) with these 

organizations to enlist their support in 

promoting cost-effective LFG utilization. 

The information collection includes 

completion and submission of the MOU, 

periodic information updates, and 

annual completion and submission of 

basic information on landfill methane 

projects with which the organizations 

are involved as an effort to update the 

LMOP Landfill and Landfill Gas Energy 

Project Database. The information 

collection is to be utilized to maintain 

up-to-date data and information about 

LMOP Partners and LFG energy projects 

with which they are involved. The data 

will also be used by the public to access 

LFG energy project development 

opportunities in the United States. In 

addition, the information collection will 

assist EPA in evaluating the reduction of 

methane emissions from landfills. No 

confidential information is requested or 

required in this information collection. 

Form Numbers: 5900–157, 5900–158, 

5900–159, 5900–160, and 5900–161. 

Respondents/affected entities: Private 

companies and municipalities that own 

or operate landfills; manufacturers and 

suppliers of equipment/knowledge to 

capture and utilize LFG; utility 

companies; end-users of energy from 

landfills; developers of LFG energy 

projects; State agencies; and other LFG 

energy stakeholders. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Voluntary. 

Estimated number of respondents: 

1,066 (total). 

Frequency of response: Annual. 

Total estimated burden: 2,176 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $199,457 (per 

year), includes $0 annualized capital or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in estimates: There is 

decrease of 94 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This decrease is due to 

anticipated slowed growth in the 

number of new LMOP Partners 

annually.

Clean Air Act Operating Permit 

Program: Petition To Object to 

Operating Permits for the Drews and 

Century Power Generating Facilities in 

Southern California 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of final action. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) Administrator signed an 

Order, dated May 10, 2021, denying a 

petition to object to Clean Air Act (CAA) 

title V operating permits issued to two 

facilities by the South Coast Air Quality 

Management District (SCAQMD). The 

EPA’s May 10, 2021 Order responds to 

a November 24, 2020 petition submitted 

by the Sierra Club and the Center for 

Community Action and Environmental 

Justice (the ‘‘Petitioners’’). The 

Petitioners requested that the EPA 

object to the issuance of two title V 

renewal operating permits issued to 

Colton Power, LP’s Drews Power 

Generating Station and Century Power 

Generating Station, located in San 

Bernardino County, California. The 

Order constitutes final action on the 

petition requesting the Administrator 

object to the issuance of the proposed 

CAA title V permits. 

DATES: Pursuant to section 307(b)(1) of 

the Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7607(b)(1), 

judicial review of this final agency 

action, to the extent it is available, may 

be sought by filing a petition for review 

in the United States Court of Appeals 

for the Ninth Circuit within 60 days of 

July 26, 2021. 

ADDRESSES: Copies of the petition and 

Order are available at https://

www.epa.gov/title-v-operating-permits/ 

title-v-petition-database. For additional 

information, please contact the person 

identified in the FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT section. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lisa 

Beckham, EPA Region 9, 75 Hawthorne 

Street (AIR–3–1), San Francisco, 

California 94105. By phone at (415) 

972–3811, or by email at beckham.lisa@

epa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CAA 

affords the EPA a 45-day period to 

review and, as appropriate, the 

authority to object to operating permits 

proposed by state and local permitting 

authorities under title V of the CAA, 42 

U.S.C. 7661–7661f. Section 505(b)(2) of 

the CAA and 40 CFR 70.8(d) authorize 

any person to petition the EPA 

Administrator to object to a title V 

operating permit within 60 days after 

the expiration of EPA’s 45-day review 

period if the EPA has not objected on its 

own initiative. Petitions must be based 

only on objections to the permit that 

were raised with reasonable specificity 

during the public comment period 

provided by the state, unless the 

petitioner demonstrates that it was 

impracticable to raise these issues 

during the comment period or the 

grounds for the issues arose after the 

comment period. 

On November 24, 2020, the EPA 

received a petition requesting that the 

EPA object to the CAA title V renewal 

permits for Colton Power, LP’s Drews 

Power Generating Station (Facility ID 

No. 182561) and Century Power 

Generating Station (Facility ID No. 

182563) (‘‘Permits’’). The Petitioners 

claim that the Permits must be revised 

to include the more stringent oxides of 

nitrogen (NOX) emissions limit in a 

recently amended version of local 

SCAQMD Rule 1134. The NOX

emissions limit has a compliance date of 

January 1, 2024 and the Petitioners 

argued that the Permits must be revised 

now because the compliance date 

occurs before the expiration of the 

Permits. The Petitioners further argued 

that if the operator has not yet chosen 

one of the two compliance options from 

the local rule, then the SCAQMD must 

revise the Permits to include both 

compliance options. 

The EPA denied the petition because 

the Petitioners failed to demonstrate 

that the recently amended version of 

SCAQMD Rule 1134 is an applicable 

requirement as defined in 40 CFR 70.2 

The Order provides additional 

information, including the EPA’s 

detailed basis for denying the petition. 

Dated: July 8, 2021.
