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 extension 

request 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 extension request 

package to OMB and the opportunity to 

submit additional comments to OMB. 

Abstract: EPA developed the 

Underground Injection Control (UIC) 

Program under the authority of the Safe 

Drinking Water Act to establish a 

federal-state regulatory system to protect 

underground sources of drinking water 

(USDWs) from injection fluids and 

injection-related activities. Injected 

fluids include hazardous waste, oil field 

brines or produced water, mineral 

processing fluids, various types of 

industrial fluids, automotive, sanitary, 

and other wastes, and carbon dioxide 

injected for geologic sequestration. 

Owners or operators of injection wells 

must obtain permits, conduct 

environmental monitoring, maintain 

records, and report results to the EPA or 

the state agency (if the state has UIC 

primary enforcement responsibility 

(primacy)). States must report to the 

EPA on permittee compliance and 

related information. This mandatory 

information is reported using 

standardized forms and annual reports. 

The governing regulations are codified 

in the Code of Federal Regulations 

(CFR) at 40 CFR parts 144 through 148. 

Reporting data are used by UIC 

authorities to ensure the protection of 

USDWs. 

Form Numbers: 7520–1, 7520–2A, 

7520–28. 7520–3, 7520–4, 7520–6, 

7520–7, 7520–8, 7520–9, 7520–10, 

7520–11, 7520–12, 7520–14, 7520–16, 

and 7520–17. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Owners or operators of underground 

injection wells and state UIC primacy 

agencies. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (40 CFR parts 140 through 

148). 

Estimated number of respondents: 

35,385 (total). 

Frequency of response: Annual, semiannual, and quarterly. 

Total estimated burden: 1,617,274 

hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 

CFR 1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $319,605,059 

(per year), includes $243,531,752 

annualized capital or operation and 

maintenance costs. 

Changes in estimates: Changes and 

developments in many aspects of the 

UIC program during the previous ICR 

period directly impact the estimates 

used in this ICR extension. For example, 

variations in permitting and closures 

across well classes and well inventory, 

revisions to UIC primacy programs, 

efforts to streamline the permit 

application process, alterations to state 

and operator reporting systems and 

other factors all cause variations in the 

ICR estimates. For the UIC ICR 

extension there is an increase of 325,014 

hours in the total estimated respondent 

burden compared with the ICR currently 

approved by OMB. This increase is due 

to changes in the injection well 

inventory and adjustments to the 

number of permit applications 

(particularly for Class VI wells) that are 

expected to be prepared and reviewed.

Public Water System Supervision 

Program Revision for the State of 

Arizona 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of tentative approval. 

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that 

the State of Arizona (State) revised its 

Public Water System Supervision 

(PWSS) Program under the federal Safe 

Drinking Water Act (SDWA) by 

adopting regulations to implement the 

federal Stage 1 and Stage 2 Disinfectants 

and Disinfection Byproducts Rules 

(DBPRs). The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) has determined that the 

State’s revisions are no less stringent 

than the corresponding Federal 

regulations and otherwise meet 

applicable SDWA primacy 

requirements. Therefore, EPA intends to 

approve the stated revisions as part of 

the State’s PWSS Program. 

DATES: A request for a public hearing 

must be received on or before 

September 24, 2021. 

ADDRESSES: All documents relating to 

this determination are available for 

inspection online at http://azdeq.gov/ 

notices. In addition, documents relating 

to this determination are available for 

inspection by appointment between the 

hours of 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., 

Monday through Friday, except official 

State or Federal holidays at the 

following address: Arizona Department 

of Environmental Quality, Records 

Center, 1110 West Washington Street, 

Phoenix, AZ 85007. Please contact the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background. EPA approved the 

State’s initial application for PWSS 

Program primary enforcement authority 

(‘‘primacy’’) on August 25, 1978 (43 FR 

38083). Since initial approval, EPA has 

approved various revisions to Arizona’s 

PWSS Program. For the revisions 

covered by this action, the EPA 

promulgated the Stage 1 DBP Rule on 

December 16, 1998 (63 FR 69390– 

69476) with revisions to the Stage 1 DBP 

Rule on January 16, 2001 (66 FR 3770– 

3780). EPA promulgated the Stage 2 

DBP Rule on January 2, 2006 (71 FR 

388–493) and published Stage 2 DBP 

Rule corrections on January 27, 2006 (71 

FR 4644), June 29, 2006 (71 FR 37168) 

and November 14, 2008 (73 FR 67456– 

67463). The EPA promulgated the Stage 

1 and Stage 2 DBPRs to reduce drinking 

water exposure to disinfection 

byproducts by setting standards for 

additional disinfection byproducts, 

establishing maximum residual 

disinfectant levels for chemical 

disinfectants, and tightening 

compliance monitoring requirements. 

EPA has determined that the Stage 1 

and Stage 2 DBPRs were incorporated 

by reference into the Arizona 


khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES
47496 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 162 / Wednesday, August 25, 2021 / Notices 

Administrative Code (AAC), Title 18, 

Chapter 4, in a manner that Arizona’s 

regulations are comparable to and no 

less stringent than the federal 

requirements. EPA has also determined 

that the State’s primacy revision meets 

all of the regulatory requirements for 

approval, as set forth in 40 CFR 142.12, 

including a side-by-side comparison of 

the Federal requirements and the 

corresponding State authorities, 

additional materials to support special 

primacy requirements of 40 CFR 142.16, 

and a statement by the Arizona Attorney 

General certifying that Arizona’s laws 

and regulations adopted by the State to 

carry out the program revisions were 

duly adopted and are enforceable. 

Furthermore, Arizona has an audit 

privilege law and has provided a legal 

opinion that Arizona’s audit privilege 

law does not impact the State’s ability 

to implement or enforce its PWSS 

program. Therefore, EPA is tentatively 

approving the State’s revisions as part of 

Arizona’s PWSS Program. 

Public Process. Any interested party 

may request a public hearing on this 

determination. A request for a public 

hearing must be received or postmarked 

before September 22, 2021, and 

addressed to the Regional Administrator 

at the EPA Region 9 via the following 

email address: R9dw-program@epa.gov. 

Please note, ‘‘State Primacy Rule 

Determination’’ in the subject line of the 

email. The Regional Administrator may 

deny frivolous or insubstantial requests 

for a hearing. If a substantial request for 

a public hearing is made before 

September 24, 2021, EPA Region 9 will 

hold a public hearing. Any request for 

a public hearing shall include the 

following information: 1. The name, 

address, and telephone number of the 

individual, organization, or other entity 

requesting a hearing; 2. A brief 

statement of the requesting person’s 

interest in the Regional Administrator’s 

determination and a brief statement of 

the information that the requesting 

person intends to submit at such 

hearing; and 3. The signature of the 

individual making the request, or, if the 

request is made on behalf of an 

organization or other entity, the 

signature of a responsible official of the 

organization or other entity. 

If EPA Region 9 does not receive a 

timely and appropriate request for a 

hearing and the Regional Administrator 

does not elect to hold a hearing on her 

own motion, this determination shall 

become final and effective on September 

24, 2021, and no further public notice 

will be issued. 

Authority: Section 1413 of the Safe 

Drinking Water Act, as amended, 42 

U.S.C. 300g–2 (1996), and 40 CFR part 

142 of the National Primary Drinking 

Water Regulations.

Information Collection Being Reviewed 

by the Federal Communications 

Commission 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort 

to reduce paperwork burdens, and as 

required by the Paperwork Reduction 

Act of 1995 (PRA), the Federal 

Communications Commission (FCC or 

Commission) invites the general public 

and other Federal agencies to take this 

opportunity to comment on the 

following information collections. 

Comments are requested concerning: 

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; 

the accuracy of the Commission’s 

burden estimate; ways to enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information collected; 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; and ways to 

further reduce the information 

collection burden on small business 

concerns with fewer than 25 employees. 

The FCC may not conduct or sponsor 

a collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) control 

number. No person shall be subject to 

any penalty for failing to comply with 

a collection of information subject to the 

PRA that does not display a valid OMB 

control number. 

DATES: Written PRA comments should 

be submitted on or before October 25,
