34810 Federal Register / Vol. 61, No. 129 / Wednesday, July 3, 1996 / Notices

the regulated community and to expand

its database of information for

rulemaking and compliance with

statutory requirements. 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 are listed in 40 CFR part 9

and 48 CFR Ch. 15. The Federal

Register Notice required under 5 CFR

1320.8(d), soliciting comments on this

collection of information was published

on March 15, 1996 (61 FR 1074); 32

comments were received.

Based on internal Agency analyses,

comments received, and to progress

towards the Agency’s goal of achieving

25% burden reduction, the Agency is

today suggesting the following changes

to the 1997 Biennial Report:

(1) Generators and RCRA permitted

Treatment, Storage and Disposal

Facilities (TSDFs) will no longer be

required to report any RCRA hazardous

wastes managed in exempt units,

defined as those units that are not under

RCRA hazardous waste permitting

requirements;

(2) The Waste Treatment, Disposal, or

Recycling Process Systems (PS) form

will be eliminated; and

(3)The Waste Minimization questions

from the Identification and Certification

(IC) and Waste Generation and

Management (GM) forms will be

eliminated.

Implementing these changes will

result in a substantially streamlined

1997 Biennial Report without sacrificing

the information needed to meet the

Agency’s statutory requirements or to

conduct its analyses. The Agency

recognizes that the information

suggested today as being dropped from

the 1997 Biennial Report is still

important. The Agency may decide,

after it conducts a comprehensive

evaluation of the information needs for

the RCRA community, that some or all

of these types of information are in fact

best collected through the Biennial

Report, albeit in a different format. At

the present time, however, the Agency

will collect this information through

mechanisms and sources other than the

1997 Biennial Report.

Burden Statement: The annual public

reporting and recordkeeping burden for

this collection of information is

estimated to average of 18.7 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:

Generators and Handlers of Hazardous

Waste.

Total estimated Number of

Respondents: 24,530.

Frequency of Response: Biennial.

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:

229,049 hours.

Estimated Total Annualized Cost

Burden: $9,456,804.

Send comments on the Agency’s need

for this information, the accuracy of the

provided burden estimates, and any

suggested methods for minimizing

respondent burden, including through

the use of automated collection

techniques, to the following addresses.

Please refer to EPA ICR No. 0976.08 and

Agency Information Collection

Activities Under OMB Review;

Standards of Performance for New

Stationary Sources Lime

Manufacturing Plants (Subpart HH)

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: In compliance with the

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.

3507(a)(1)(D), this notice announces that

the Information Collection Request (ICR)

for Standards of Performance for New

Stationary Sources—Lime

Manufacturing Plants—NSPS Subpart

HH) described below has been

forwarded to the Office of Management

and Budget (OMB) for review and

comment. The ICR describes the nature

of the information collection and its

expected burden and cost; where

appropriate, it includes the actual data

collection instrument.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on

or before August 2, 1996.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION OR A COPY

CALL: Sandy Farmer at EPA, (202) 260–

2740, and refer to EPA ICR No. 1167.05.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Title: Standards of Performance for

Lime Manufacturing Plants (OMB

Control No. 2060–0063; EPA ICR No.

1167.05). This is a request for extension

of a currently approved collection.

Abstract: The Administrator has

judged that PM emissions from lime

manufacturing plants cause or

contribute to air pollution that may

reasonably be anticipated to endanger

public health or welfare. Owners/

operators of lime manufacturing plants

must notify EPA of construction,

modification, startups, shut downs, date

and results of initial performance test

and excess emissions. The only type of

industry costs associated with the

information collection activity in the

standards are labor costs.

In order to ensure compliance with

the standards promulgated to protect

public health, adequate reporting and

recordkeeping is necessary. In the

absence of such information

enforcement personnel would be unable

to determine whether the standards are

being met on a continuous basis, as

required by the Clean Air 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 are listed

in 40 CFR Part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter

15. The Federal Register Notice

required under 5 CFR 1320.8(d),

soliciting comments on this collection

of information was published on March

26, 1996.

reporting and recordkeeping burden for
