this proceeding, the timeframe for filing 

timely intervention requests has 

expired. Any person seeking to become 

a party to the proceeding must file a 

motion to intervene out-of-time 

pursuant to Rule 214(b)(3) and (d) of the 

Commission’s Rules of Practice and 

Procedures (18 CFR 385.214(b)(3) and

submit additional comments to OMB. 

Abstract: Under the Resource 

Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), 

as amended, Congress directed EPA to 

implement a comprehensive program 

for the safe management of hazardous 

waste. The core of the national waste 

management program is the regulation 

of hazardous waste from generation to 

transport to treatment and eventual 

disposal, or from ‘‘cradle to grave.’’ 

Section 3001(d) of RCRA requires EPA 

to develop standards for small quantity 

generators. Section 3002 of RCRA states, 

among other things, that EPA shall 

establish requirements for hazardous 

waste generators regarding 

recordkeeping practices. Section 3002 

also requires EPA to establish standards 

on appropriate use of containers by 

generators. Finally, Section 3017 of 

RCRA specifies requirements for 

individuals exporting hazardous waste 

from the United States, including a 

notification of the intent to export, and 

an annual report summarizing the types, 

quantities, frequency, and ultimate 

destination of all exported hazardous 

waste. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: Private 

business or other for-profit. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (40 CFR parts 262 and 265). 

Estimated number of respondents: 

644,345. 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Total estimated burden: 526,989 

hours per year. Burden is defined at 5 

CFR 1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $31,367,417 per 

year, which includes $63,345 in 

annualized capital or operation & 

maintenance costs. 

Changes in Estimates: The burden 

hours are likely to stay substantially the 

same.

United States-Mexico-Canada 

Agreement Mitigation of Contaminated 

Transboundary Flows Project 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA); United States 

International Boundary and Water 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice of availability of draft 

programmatic environmental impact 

statement; notice of virtual public 

comment meetings; request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with 

regulations implementing the National 

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), as 

amended, the Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) and U.S. International 

Boundary and Water Commission 

(USIBWC), as joint lead agencies, have 

prepared a Draft Programmatic 

Environmental Impact Statement (Draft 

PEIS) for the proposed United StatesMexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) 

Mitigation of Contaminated 

Transboundary Flows Project (the 

Proposed Action). The Proposed Action 

involves the planning, design, and 

construction of infrastructure to reduce 

transboundary flows of untreated 

wastewater (sewage), trash, and 

sediment that routinely enter the U.S. 

from Mexico via the Tijuana River, its 

tributaries, and across the maritime 

boundary along the San Diego County 

coast. These transboundary flows 

impact public health and the 

environment and have been linked to 

beach closures along the San Diego 

County coast. EPA and USIBWC have 

evaluated the Proposed Action, 

including alternatives, located in the 

Tijuana River area in southern San 

Diego County, California in the U.S. and 

in the Tijuana region in Mexico. This 

Notice initiates the comment process by 

inviting comments from Federal, State, 

and local agencies; Native American 

tribes; interested stakeholders; and the 

public on the Proposed Action, 

including alternatives, and 

environmental consequences examined 

in the Draft PEIS. EPA and USIBWC are 

also providing notice of virtual public 

comment meetings that are open to all 

interested parties. 

DATES: Public comment meetings will be 

held virtually on July 19, 2022, 6:30 

p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time 

(PDT) and July 20, 2022, 2 p.m. to 4 

p.m. (PDT). A formal presentation on 

the proposed project will be provided at 

the meetings, followed by an 

opportunity for public comment. 

Written public comments are due to 

EPA and USIBWC by 5:00 p.m. (PDT) 

within the 45 days from the date of the 

publication of the EPA Notification of 

Availability of Programmatic 

Environmental Impact Statements in the 

Federal Register. Please go to: https://

www.epa.gov/sustainable-waterinfrastructure/usmca-tijuana-riverwatershed for more information 

regarding the public comment meetings. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments shall be 

submitted to the following email 

address: Tijuana-Transboundary-EIS@

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background: EPA and USIBWC, as 

joint lead agencies, in accordance with 

the requirements of NEPA (42 U.S.C. 

4321–4347), Council on Environmental 

Quality NEPA Implementing 

Regulations (40 Code of Federal 

Regulations [CFR] 1500–1508 [2022]), 

EPA Procedures for Implementing 

NEPA (40 CFR part 6), and USIBWC 

NEPA Implementing Procedures (48 FR 

44083), have prepared a Draft PEIS for 

the Proposed Action. EPA and USIBWC 

invite public comment on the scope of 

the Draft PEIS, the Proposed Action 

(including alternatives considered), 

specific environmental issues evaluated, 

relevant information and analyses, the 

identified impacts of the alternatives, 

and applicable mitigation measures. 

The San Diego-Tijuana region has 

faced persistent transboundary flows of 

contaminated wastewater originating in 

Mexico for many years. The three 

primary entryways of these 

transboundary flows into the U.S. are in 

coastal waters of the Pacific Ocean, the 

Tijuana River, and tributaries flowing 

north through canyons to the Tijuana 

River. Seasonal marine currents cause 

coastal discharges of largely untreated 

wastewater (sewage) from the Tijuana 

area to migrate north along the Pacific 

Ocean coast into the U.S. These 

discharges impact southern San Diego 

County beaches, especially during the 

summer. Additionally, transboundary 

flows in the Tijuana River and its
