Titles: Background Checks for 

Contractor Employees (Renewal). 

Abstract: EPA uses contractors to 

perform services throughout the nation 

with regard to environmental 

emergencies involving the release, or 

threatened release, of oil, radioactive 

materials or hazardous chemicals that 

may potentially affect communities and 

the surrounding environment. Releases 

may be accidental, deliberate, or may be 

caused by natural disasters. Emergency 

responders are available 24 hours-a-day 

to an incident, and respond with 

necessary personnel and equipment to 

eliminate dangers to the public and 

environment. Contractors responding to 

any of these types of incidents are 

responsible for conducting background 

checks and applying Governmentestablished suitability criteria in 

determining whether employees are 

acceptable to perform on given sites or 

on specific projects prior to contract 

employee performance. The information 

to be collected under the ICR for 

Background Checks for Contractor 

Employees covers citizenship or valid 

visa, criminal convictions, weapons 

offenses, felony convictions, parties 

prohibited from receiving federal 

contracts. The Contractor shall maintain 

records of all background checks. 

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 40 

CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and are 

identified on the form and/or 

instrument, if applicable. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 1 hour per 

response. Burden means the total time, 

effort, or financial resources expended 

by persons to generate, maintain, retain, 

or disclose or provide information to or 

for a Federal agency. This includes the 

time needed to review instructions; 

develop, acquire, install, and utilize 

technology and systems for the purposes 

of collecting, validating, and verifying 

information, processing and 

maintaining information, and disclosing 

and providing information; adjust the 

existing ways to comply with any 

previously applicable instructions and 

requirements; train personnel to be able 

to respond to a collection of 

information; search data sources; 

complete and review the collection of 

information; and transmit or otherwise 

disclose the information. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Entities potentially affected by this 

action are contractors involved with 

Emergency Response that have 

significant security concerns, as 

determined by the Contracting Officer 

on a case-by-case basis, to provide 

qualified personnel that meet the 

background check requirements 

developed by EPA. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

1,000. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

1,000. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$179,000, which includes $0 annual 

capital/startup and O&M costs, and 

$179,000 annual labor costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

no change in the number of hours in the 

total estimated burden currently 

identified in the OMB Inventory of 

Approved ICR Burdens. 

Dated: September 13, 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. General Information 

A. Background 

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 

the PRA, EPA is soliciting comments 

and information to enable it to: 

(1) Evaluate whether the proposed 

collections of information are 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 burdens of the 

proposed collections of information. 

(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected. 

(4) Minimize the burden of the 

collections of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated or 

electronic collection technologies or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of 

responses. 

Burden means the total time, effort, or 

financial resources expended by persons 

to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose 

or provide information to or for a 

Federal agency. This includes the time 

needed to review instructions; develop, 

acquire, install, and utilize technology 

and systems for the purposes of 

collecting, validating, and verifying 

information, processing and 

maintaining information, and disclosing 

and providing information; adjust the 

existing ways to comply with any 

previously applicable instructions and 

requirements; train personnel to be able 

to respond to a collection of 

information; search data sources; 

complete and review the collection of 

information; and transmit or otherwise 

disclose the information. 

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 standards are 

displayed at 40 CFR part 9. 

B. Public Dockets 

EPA has established official public 

dockets for the ICRs listed under 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION, section 

II.B. The official public docket for each 

ICR consists of the documents 

specifically referenced in the ICR, any 

public comments received, and other 

information related to each ICR. The 

official public docket for each ICR is the 

collection of materials that is available 

for public viewing at the Enforcement 

and Compliance Docket and Information 

Center in the EPA Docket Center (EPA/ 

DC), EPA West, Room B102, 1301 

Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, 

DC. The EPA Docket Center Public 

Reading Room is open from 8:30 a.m. to 

4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday,

of the draft collection of information, to 

submit or to view public comments, to 

access the index listing of the contents 

of the public docket, and to access those 

documents in the public docket that are 

available electronically. When in the 

system, select ‘‘search,’’ then key in the 

docket ID number identified above. 

Any comments related to the listed 

ICRs above should be submitted to EPA 

within 60 days of this notice. EPA’s 

policy is that public comments, whether 

submitted electronically or in paper, 

will be made available for public 

viewing in EDOCKET as EPA receives 

them and without change, unless the 

comment contains copyrighted material, 

Confidential Business Information (CBI), 

or other information whose public 

disclosure is restricted by statute. When 

EPA identifies a comment containing 

copyrighted material, EPA will provide 

a reference to that material in the 

version of the comment that is placed in 

EDOCKET. The entire printed comment, 

including the copyrighted material, will 

be available in the public docket. 

Although identified as an item in the 

official docket, information claimed as 

CBI, or whose disclosure is otherwise 

restricted by statute, is not included in 

the official public docket, and will not 

be available for public viewing in 

EDOCKET. For further information 

about the electronic docket, see EPA’s 

Federal Register notice describing the 

electronic docket at 67 FR 38102 (May

edocket. 

II. ICRs To Be Renewed 

A. For All ICRs 

The listed ICRs address Clean Air Act 

information collection requirements in 

standards (i.e., regulations) which have 

mandatory recordkeeping and reporting 

requirements. Records collected under 

the New Source Performance Standards 

(NSPS) must be retained by the owner 

or operator for at least two years and the 

records collected under the National 

Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 

Pollutants (NESHAP) must be retained 

by the owner or operator for at least five 

years. In general, the required 

collections consist of emissions data 

and other information deemed not to be 

private. 

In the absence of such information 

collection requirements, enforcement 

personnel would be unable to determine 

whether the standards are being met on 

a continuous basis, as required by the 

Clean Air Act. 

The Agency computed the burden for 

each of the recordkeeping and reporting 

requirements applicable to the industry 

for the currently approved Information 

Collection Requests (ICRs) listed in this 

notice. Where applicable, the Agency 

identified specific tasks and made 

assumptions, while being consistent 

with the concept of the Paperwork 

Reduction Act.

or reconstruction after June 6, 2001. 

The affected entities are subject to the 

General Provisions of the NSPS at 40 

CFR part 60, subpart A and any changes, 

or additions to the General Provisions 

specified at 40 CFR part 60, subpart 

AAAA. Owners or operators must 

conduct initial compliance tests for all 

pollutants, operating parameters, and 

continuous monitoring systems. Annual 

performance tests and continuous 

monitoring systems (CEMS) for certain 

pollutants and operating parameters is 

also required. Owners or operators of 

small MWC units must submit an initial 

compliance report for all regulated 

pollutants and parameters. Once a year, 

owners or operators must submit a 

report that indicates the highest 

emission level determined during the 

annual test or recorded using the CEMS 

for all regulated pollutants. The report 

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 182 / Wednesday, September 21, 2005 / Notices 55373 

must also include the lowest calculated 

hourly carbon feed rate. 

If the emission level recorded for any 

of these pollutants is above the emission 

limit for the pollutant, or if any 

operating parameter is outside a 

specified range, then the owner or 

operator is required to submit a 

semiannual report for the calendar half 

during which the test was conducted or 

data was collected. The standards 

include provisions that would allow 

less frequent reporting if certain criteria 

are met. 

Owners or operators of small MWC 

units are required to keep records of 

certain parameters, and maintain 

records of employee names and dates of 

their initial and annual review of the 

site-specific operating manual 

parameters. Records of continuous

(8) NESHAP for Integrated Iron and 

Steel Manufacturing (40 CFR Part 63, 

Subpart FFFFF); EPA ICR Number 

2003.03; OMB Control Number 2060–

0517; expiration date June 30, 2006. 

Affected Entities: Integrated iron and 

steel manufacturing facilities. 

Abstract: The National Emission 

Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants 

(NESHAP) for Integrated Iron and Steel 

Manufacturing Steel Pickling, 40 CFR 

Part 63, Subpart FFFFF, were proposed 

on July 13, 2001 (66 FR 36835), and 

promulgated on May 20, 2003 (68 FR 

27645). This rulemaking establishes 

emission limits for particulate matter 

and/or opacity limits, which act as 

surrogates for individual metallic 

hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) 

limitations for six discharge points. 

Operating limits are also required for 

certain capture systems and control 

devices. The rule also includes an 

operating limit for the oil content of the 

sinter plant feedstock to reduce organic 

HAP. As an alternative, a facility may 

choose to monitor emissions of volatile 

organic compounds instead of oil 

content. 

The monitoring, recordkeeping, and 

reporting requirements outlined in the 

rule are similar to those required for 

other NESHAP regulations. Plants are 

required to conduct a performance test 

to demonstrate initial compliance with 

each emission and opacity limit and 

establish operating limits for capture 

systems and control devices. A 

performance test is also required to 

demonstrate compliance with the 

operating limit on the oil content of 

sinter plant feedstock or for volatile 

organic compounds. 

Consistent with the NESHAP General 

Provisions (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart A), 

respondents submit one-time 

notifications of applicability, a 

performance test result for the primary 

emission control device, and 

semiannual reports including periods of 

monitoring exceedances. Plants also 

must develop and implement a Startup, 

Shutdown, and Malfunction Plan 

(SSMP). An immediate report is 

required if actions taken in response to 

the SSMP were not consistent with the 

written SSMP. These notifications, 

reports, and records are essential in 

determining compliance, and are 

required of all sources subject to 

NESHAP. 

Burden Statement: In the active 

approved ICR, the estimated number of 

respondents for this information 

collection 6 with 24 responses per year. 

The annual industry reporting and 

recordkeeping burden for this collection 

of information was 199 hours. The 

average annual respondent reports four 

times per year and spends 8 hours 

preparing each response. 

The total annualized cost for 

continuous emissions monitoring was 

$64,300, which was comprised of 

capital/startup costs of $42,000 and 

operation and maintenance (O&M) costs 

of $22,300 per year. 

(9) Federal Emission Guidelines for 

Large Municipal Waste Combustors 

Constructed on or Before September 20, 

1994 (40 CFR 62, Subpart FFF), EPA ICR 

Number 1847.04, OMB Control Number 

2060–0181, expiration date June 30, 

2006. 

Affected Entities: Municipal waste 

combustion (MWC) units. 

Abstract: Federal Emission Guidelines 

for Large Municipal Waste Combustors 

Constructed on or Before September 20, 

1994 (40 CFR 62, Subpart FFF) were 

promulgated on November 12, 1998. 

The guidelines apply to MWC units 

with a combustion capacity greater than 

250 tons per day of municipal solid 

waste (large MWC units) if construction 

of the unit commenced on or before 

September 20, 1994, and the unit is not 

covered by an Agency approved State or 

Tribal Plan. 

The affected entities are subject to the 

General Provisions of the New Source 

Performance Standards (NSPS) at 40 

CFR part 60, subpart A and any changes, 

or additions to the General Provisions 

specified at 40 CFR part 62, subpart 

FFF. Subpart FFF implements and 

enforces the emission guidelines (40 

CFR part 60, subpart Cb) for large MWCs 

that were promulgated under the 

authority of Clean Air Act Sections 111 

and 129. Under CAA Section 129(b)(2), 

States were required to submit plans to 

the Administrator for approval by 

December 19, 1996, that implement and 

enforce the 40 CFR part 60, subpart Cb. 

Section 129(b)(3) requires the 

Administrator to promulgate a Federal 

Plan to implement and enforce the 

guidelines in those States that have not 

submitted an approvable plan to 

Administrator by December 19, 1997. 

Subpart FFF requires initial 

notifications, performance tests, and 

periodic reports. Owners or operators 

are also required to maintain records of 

the occurrence and duration of any 

startup, shutdown, or malfunction in 

the operation of an affected facility, or 

any period during which the monitoring 

system is inoperative. These 

notifications, reports, and records are 

essential to determine compliance, and 

are required of all sources subject to the 

NSPS. Subpart FFF contains the same 

testing, monitoring, recordkeeping and 

reporting requirements as Subpart Eb 

and subpart Cb. This occurs because 

Section 60.39b of subpart Cb requires 

that for a State Plan or Tribal Plan to be 

approved, it must contain the 

recordkeeping and reporting 

requirements of Subpart Eb. Because the 

Federal Plan is applicable in lieu of 

State or Tribal Plans for MWCs in areas 

that do not have approved State or 

Tribal Plans, the Federal Plan also 

contains the same recordkeeping and 

reporting as subparts Eb and Cb. 

55374 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 182 / Wednesday, September 21, 2005 / Notices

performance test. Respondents are also 

required to maintain records of the 

occurrence and duration of any startup, 

shutdown, or malfunction in the 

operation of an affected facility, or any 

period during which the monitoring 

system is inoperative. Monitoring 

requirements specific to synthetic fiber 

production facilities provide 

information on emissions. Owners or 

operators are required to install, 

calibrate, maintain, and operate a 

continuous monitoring system for the 

measurement of makeup solvent and 

solvent feed. Also required are 

semiannual reports, and quarterly 

reports addressing excess emissions.

Titles: Drug Testing for Contractor 

Employees (Renewal). 

Abstract: EPA uses contractors to 

perform services throughout the nation 

with regard to environmental 

emergencies involving the release, or 

threatened release, of oil, radioactive 

materials or hazardous chemicals that 

may potentially affect communities and 

the surrounding environment. Releases 

may be accidental, deliberate, or may be 

caused by natural disasters. Emergency 

responders are available 24 hours-a-day 

to an incident, and respond with 

necessary personnel and equipment to 

eliminate dangers to the public and 

environment. Contractors responding to 

any of these types of incidents are 

responsible for conducting drug tests 

and applying Government-established 

suitability criteria in determining 

whether employees are acceptable to 

perform on given sites or on specific 

projects prior to contract employee 

performance. The information to be 

collected under the ICR for Drug Testing 

for Contractor Employees covers testing 

for the presence of marijuana, cocaine, 

opiates, amphetamines and 

phencyclidine (PCP). The Contractor 

shall maintain records of all drug tests. 

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 40 

CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and are 

identified on the form and/or 

instrument, if applicable. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 1 hour per 

response. Burden means the total time, 

effort, or financial resources expended 

by persons to generate, maintain, retain, 

or disclose or provide information to or 

for a Federal agency. This includes the 

time needed to review instructions; 

develop, acquire, install, and utilize 

technology and systems for the purposes 

of collecting, validating, and verifying 

information, processing and 

maintaining information, and disclosing 

and providing information; adjust the 

existing ways to comply with any 

previously applicable instructions and 

requirements; train personnel to be able 

to respond to a collection of 

information; search data sources; 

complete and review the collection of 

information; and transmit or otherwise 

disclose the information. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Entities potentially affected by this 

action are contractors involved with 

Emergency Response that have 

significant security concerns, as 

determined by the Contracting Officer 

on a case-by-case basis, to provide
