Abstract:
To
receive
a
variance
from
the
hazardous
waste
land
disposal
prohibitions,
owner/
operators
of
hazardous
waste
storage
or
disposal
facilities
may
petition
the
Environmental
Protection
Agency
to
allow
land
disposal
of
a
specific
restricted
waste
at
a
specific
site.
The
EPA
Regional
Offices
will
review
the
petitions
and
determine
if
they
successfully
demonstrate
``
no
migration.''
The
applicant
must
demonstrate
that
hazardous
wastes
can
be
managed
safely
in
a
particular
land
disposal
unit,
so
that
``
no
migration''
of
any
hazardous
constituents
occurs
from
the
unit
for
as
long
as
the
waste
remains
hazardous.
(
See
40
CFR
268.6.)
If
EPA
grants
the
variance,
the
waste
is
no
longer
prohibited
from
land
disposal
in
that
particular
unit.
If
the
owner/
operator
fails
to
make
this
demonstration,
or
chooses
not
to
petition
for
the
variance,
best
demonstrated
available
technology
(
BDAT)
requirements
of
40
CFR
268.40
et
seq
must
be
met
before
the
hazardous
wastes
are
placed
in
a
land
disposal
unit.
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
EPA
would
like
to
solicit
comments
to:
(
i)
Evaluate
whether
the
proposed
collection
of
information
is
necessary
for
the
proper
performance
of
the
functions
of
the
agency,
including
whether
the
information
will
have
practical
utility;
(
ii)
Evaluate
the
accuracy
of
the
agency's
estimate
of
the
burden
of
the
proposed
collection
of
information,
including
the
validity
of
the
methodology
and
assumptions
used;
(
iii)
Enhance
the
quality,
utility,
and
clarity
of
the
information
to
be
collected;
and
(
iv)
Minimize
the
burden
of
the
collection
of
information
on
those
who
are
to
respond,
including
through
the
use
of
appropriate
automated
electronic,
mechanical,
or
other
technological
collection
techniques
or
other
forms
of
information
technology,
e.
g.,
permitting
electronic
submission
of
responses.
Burden
Statement:
The
Agency
is
estimating
that
no
more
than
one
respondent
will
prepare
and
submit
a
No­
Migration
variance
petition
during
the
three
year
period
of
this
ICR.
EPA
estimates
that
the
total
annual
respondent
burden
for
all
information
collection
activities
will
be
approximately
3,137
hours,
at
an
annual
cost
of
$
187,136.
The
annual
cost
includes
annual
capital
start
up
and
operation
and
maintenance
costs
of
approximately
$
180.
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

otherwise
disclose
the
information.

This
is
a
new
collection.
Abstract:
This
ICR
covers
recordkeeping
and
reporting
activities
for
both
participation
in
the
Energy
Star
Homes
Program
as
well
as
participation
in
a
three­
year
impact
evaluation
of
the
Energy
Star
Homes
Program.
The
Energy
Star
Homes
Program
Impact
Evaluation
is
designed
to
evaluate
the
effectiveness
of
the
program
in
meeting
the
program's
stated
objectives.
The
evaluation
will
cover
Energy
Star
Homes
built
during
1997
 
98
(
the
``
first
year''),
1999
(
the
``
second
year''),
and
2000
(
the
``
third
year'').
The
evaluation
consists
of
surveying
Energy
Star
homebuyers,
non­
Energy
Star
homebuyers
(
hereafter
referred
to
as
``
Control''
homebuyers),
Energy
Star
builder
partners,
energy
suppliers,
and
Home
Energy
Rating
System
(
HERS)
providers.
By
collecting
information
from
these
different
constituents,
EPA
will
be
able
to
determine
whether
Energy
Star
homebuyers
are
satisfied
with
their
purchase;
builder
partners
are
meeting
their
business
objectives;
and
Energy
Star
homes
are
delivering
the
pollution
prevention
promised.
An
agency
may
not

and
a
person
is
not
required

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

Chapter
15.
The
Federal
Register
document

The
annual
public
reporting
and
recordkeeping
burden
for
