familiar with the community. The 

survey will be conducted using a 

computer simulated nonuniform-price, 

sequential auction for the procurement 

of best management practices. 

Participants will be presented with a 

selection of best management practices 

that are feasible for use on their actual 

parcel. Information regarding how each 

BMP will perform on their specific 

parcel, as well as the installation, 

operation, and maintenance costs will 

be provided. The auction is designed to 

compensate residents for their costs of 

adopting best management practices on 

their property. Participants who wish to 

adopt BMPs will submit bids that 

consist of the size and type of the BMPs 

and the minimum compensation that 

they require. The goal is to pay those 

landowners who adopt the most 

effective best management practices at 

the lowest price. Survey results will 

then be used to estimate the minimum 

payments required to achieve control 

stormwater runoff through on-site best 

management practices. Data will be 

stored on U.S. Environmental Protection 

Agency computer files that protect 

respondent confidentiality. Summary 

results will be made available to the 

public. 

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 2 hours 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: 

Homeowners in the Shepherd Creek 

Area of Cincinnati, OH. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

60. 

Frequency of Response: On Occasion. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

120. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: $3,000, 

includes $0 annualized capital or O&M 

costs.

Title: Survey of Airport Deicing 

Operations. 

Abstract: EPA is developing 

wastewater discharge standards, called 

‘‘effluent guidelines,’’ for airports 

61814 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 206 / Wednesday, October 26, 2005 / Notices 

pursuant to the Agency’s 2004 Effluent 

Guidelines Plan (69 FR 53719, 

September 2, 2004). The focus of the 

rulemaking is on wastewater discharges 

from aircraft and airport pavement 

deicing operations. EPA will send 

survey questionnaires to a sample of 

airports and airlines to help the Agency 

compile a national assessment of 

deicing operations. Three 

questionnaires will be used: A detailed 

airport questionnaire, a short ‘‘screener’’

airline questionnaire, and a detailed 

airline questionnaire. The detailed 

questionnaires will include questions 

on the deicing technologies employed, 

amount of deicing chemicals used, 

pollution prevention techniques, and 

economic and financial information. 

The airline screener will ask airlines 

whether they deice their own aircraft at 

specified locations, or if another party 

conducts the deicing operation. EPA 

will use the screener results to select 

airline locations for responding to the 

detailed airline questionnaire. 

Completion of this one-time survey will 

be mandatory pursuant to section 308 of 

the Clean Water Act. 

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 62 hours for airport 

questionnaire respondents, 21 hours for 

airline detailed questionnaire 

respondents, and 5.5 hours for airline 

screener respondents to complete and 

review their responses to the 

questionnaire and associated data 

submissions. 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: 

Airports and airlines that perform 

deicing and anti-icing on aircraft and/or 

airfield pavement. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

290. 

Frequency of Response: One time 

response. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

20,851 hours. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$871,998, includes $0 annualized 

capital expenditure and $8,134 

Respondent O&M costs.
