    EPA ICR Number: 2355.03
    OMB Control Number: 2060-0652
    Abstract: This ICR concerns the reporting of the true value of the 
audit sample to the compliance authority (state, local or EPA Regional 
Office) by the accredited audit sample provider (AASP) as required in 
the General Provisions of Parts 51, 60, 61 and 63. This ICR covers the 
period of 2014-2016.
    The required audit program started on June 16, 2013. A regulated 
emisson source conducting a compliance test would purchase an audit 
sample from an AASP. The AASP would report the true value of the audit 
sample to the compliance authority (state, local or EPA Regional 
Office). The AASP would, in most cases, make the report by electronic 
mail. A report would be made for each audit sample that the AASP sold 
to a regulated emission source that was conducting an emissions test to 
determine compliance with an emission limit.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Laboratories that supply audit 
samples.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Voluntary.
    Estimated total number of potential respondents: 9
    Frequency of response: There is no regular schedule for collecting 
information. The information is event driven and information is 
collected only when an AASP supplies an audit sample to a user.
    Total estimated burden: 2,646 hours per year. Burden is defined at 
5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $201,116 per year. This includes the cost of 
preparing, validating, disturbing and reporting the audit results.
    Changes in the Estimates: There are no changes in the hours in the 
total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently 
approved by OMB.
