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 information collection activity 

or ICR does this action apply to? 

Title: Asbestos-Containing Materials 

in Schools and Asbestos Model 

Accreditation Plans. 

ICR number: EPA ICR No. 1365.12. 

OMB control number: OMB Control 

No. 2070–0091. 

ICR status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on May 31, 2022. 

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: This Information Collection 

Request (ICR) addresses reporting and 

recordkeeping requirements found in 

the Asbestos-Containing Materials in 

Schools Rule (‘‘AHERA Rule’’ a.k.a. 

‘‘Schools Rule’’) and the Asbestos 

Model Accreditation Plan (MAP) Rule. 

Section 203 of the Asbestos Hazard 

Emergency Response Act (AHERA, 15 

U.S.C. 2641–2656), authorizes the EPA 

Administrator to promulgate regulations 

‘‘for determining whether asbestoscontaining material is present in a 

school building under the authority of a 

local education agency (LEA).’’ 

Accordingly, the Agency developed 

regulations in 40 CFR part 763, subpart 

E to require LEAs to conduct 

inspections, develop management plans, 

and design or conduct response actions. 

Records must be maintained by all LEAs 

on inspections and response action 

activity, and current management plans 

must be provided upon request to EPA 

and state reviewers for examination. 

Section 206 of AHERA, as amended, 

authorized the EPA Administrator, in 

consultation with affected 

organizations, to develop a model 

accreditation plan for states. The MAP 

provides accreditation criteria for 

persons who inspect for asbestos, 

develop management plans, and design 

or conduct response actions. States are 

required to adopt an accreditation plan 

at least as stringent as the EPA model 

plan. The accreditation requirements 

apply to persons who work in public 

and commercial buildings as well as 

schools. Accreditation of laboratories 

that analyze asbestos bulk samples and 

asbestos air samples is also required by 

AHERA. 

This ICR estimates the paperwork 

burden for LEAs to inspect for asbestos 

and update management plans to 

protect all school building occupants 

from exposure to asbestos. This 

collection also estimates the paperwork 

burden for the accreditation of persons 

who inspect for asbestos, develop 

management plans, and design or 

conduct response actions and the 

paperwork burden associated with state 

accreditation programs. 

Burden statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to annual average 19.7 hours 

per response for schools, 140 hours per 

response for states, and 5.5 hours per 

response for training providers. Burden 

is defined in 5 CFR 1320.3(b). 

The ICR, which is available in the 

docket along with other related 

materials, provides a detailed 

explanation of the collection activities 

and the burden estimate that is only 

briefly summarized here: 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Entities potentially affected by this ICR 

are elementary and secondary school 

districts North American Industry 

Classification System ((NAICS) code 

61111) and all states (NAICS code 

92311). Additionally, under the 

Asbestos School Hazard Abatement 

Reauthorization Act (ASHARA), the 

Model Accreditation Plan affects 

training providers (NAICS code 61143) 

and State Asbestos Accreditation 

Programs (NAICS code 92312). 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory, as per 40 CFR 763 subpart 

E. 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 138,945, which represents 

137,621 local education agencies 

(LEAs), 1,268 training providers, and 56 

States/Territories. 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 1. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

2,600,679 hours. 

Estimated total annual costs: 

$106,858,522, which includes an 

estimated burden cost of $106,858,522 

and an estimated cost of $0 for capital

Section 552b(c)(8) and (9). 

investment or maintenance and 

operational costs. 

III. Are there changes in the estimates 

from the last approval? 

There is an increase in total annual 

costs compared with that identified in 

the ICR currently approved by OMB. 

This is an increase of 45,766 hours 

(from 2,554,913 hours to 2,600,679 

hours). The increase in the respondent 

burden and agency costs were caused by 

an increase in the hourly wages and a 

change in the methodology to calculate 

loaded wages (wages plus fringe benefits 

and overhead). This change is an 

adjustment. 

In addition, OMB has requested that 

EPA move towards using the 18- 

question format for ICR Supporting 

Statements used by other federal 

agencies and departments and is based 

on the submission instructions 

established by OMB in 1995, replacing 

the alternate format developed by EPA 

and OMB prior to 1995. The Agency 

does not expect this change in format to 

result in substantive changes to the 

information collection activities or 

related estimated burden and costs. 

IV. 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 person listed 

under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
