Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 157 / Wednesday, August 16, 2017 / Notices 38905 

for the rulemaking titled ‘‘Disposal of 

Coal Combustion Residuals from 

Electric Utilities’’ (CCR rule), a 

rulemaking which was published in the 

Federal Register on April 17, 2015. The 

CCR rule establishes a comprehensive 

set of requirements for the disposal of 

CCR in landfills and surface 

impoundments, including minimum 

federal criteria for groundwater 

monitoring and corrective action, 

structural stability, design and operation 

standards, closure and post-closure care 

standards, and recordkeeping, reporting 

and internet posting requirements. 

In December 2016, the President 

signed the Water Infrastructure 

Improvements for the Nation (WIIN) 

Act. Section 2301 of the WIIN Act 

amended RCRA Subtitle D and 

established new statutory provisions for 

the control of CCR when placed in CCR 

landfills and surface impoundments. In 

particular, the WIIN Act provides that 

states may, but are not required to, 

develop and submit a permit program 

(or other system of prior approval) for 

control of CCR to EPA for approval. 

Such a program does not have to be 

identical to the requirements in the CCR 

rule (40 CFR part 257, subpart D), but 

must be at least as protective as the 

federal CCR requirements. In order for a 

state to receive approval of its CCR 

permit program, the state must submit 

to EPA specific materials that would 

constitute a ‘‘complete’’ CCR permit 

program application. The information 

collection includes those activities to 

develop the necessary CCR permit (or 

other system of prior approval) program 

materials for submittal to EPA for 

approval. EPA is developing a guidance 

document to provide states with the 

information needed to apply for CCR 

program approval. 

To enable EPA to implement the new 

authorities provided by the WIIN Act 

(that is, to review and make 

determinations on State programs), EPA 

is revising ICR No. 1189.26 to account 

for the new burden and cost estimates 

associated with the voluntary actions 

that states may take to obtain CCR 

permit program approval. In this 

revision to the ICR, EPA is also making 

changes to the current burden and cost 

estimates associated with a separate 

voluntary state activity. Specifically, 

EPA is proposing to revise the 

respondent universe associated with the 

activity of submitting a solid waste 

management plan to EPA for approval. 

The solid waste management plan is the 

mechanism where a state is able to set 

out, as part of their overall solid waste 

program, how the state intends to 

regulate CCR landfills and surface 

impoundments. While the burden and 

cost associated with this activity is 

included in the currently approved ICR, 

EPA is revising the burden and cost 

estimates to better reflect the actual state 

response observed since the CCR rule 

was published in 2015. 

The EPA is not making any other 

substantive revisions to the currently 

approved ICR. The EPA is only 

soliciting comments on burden and cost 

estimates associated with activities 

relating to state CCR permit programs 

and state solid waste management plans 

and will not consider comments on 

other aspects of the currently approved 

ICR. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: This 

ICR affects owners and operators of CCR 

landfills and surface impoundments 

that dispose or otherwise engage in 

solid waste management of CCR 

generated from the combustion of coal 

at electric utilities and independent 

power producers. This ICR also affects 

states that voluntarily elect to seek 

approval from EPA of their state CCR 

permit program or solid waste 

management plan. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

For the CCR rule portion of the ICR, the 

recordkeeping, notification, and internet 

posting requirements are mandatory 

under 40 CFR part 257, subpart D. The 

actions that states may take to obtain 

approval from EPA of either their CCR 

permit program or solid waste 

management plan is voluntary. 

Estimated number of respondents: 

494 (total subject to the CCR rule 

portion of the ICR). 

Frequency of response: Initially, 

occasionally, annually, and every five 

years. 

Total estimated burden: 354,602 

hours (per year) for the CCR rule portion 

of the ICR. Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $63,858,128 (per 

year) for the CCR rule portion of the 

ICR, which includes $41,112,513 

annualized capital cost or operation & 

maintenance costs. 

Changes in Estimates: There is 

decrease of 4,355 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. The decrease in burden from the 

most recently approved ICR is due to 

adjustments in the respondent universe 

associated with state solid waste 

management plan activities. The most 

recently approved ICR overestimated 

the number of states that would 

voluntarily update their overall solid 

waste program by submitting to EPA a 

solid waste management plan for CCR 

for approval. The revision to the burden 

estimates for the solid waste 

management plan activity exceeded the 

burden estimates associated with the 

new state CCR permit program approval 

activity, which resulted in an overall 

decrease in burden hours.
