SEQ CHAPTER \h \r 2 Supporting Statement for a Request for OMB Review
under

The Paperwork Reduction Act

1.	IDENTIFICATION OF THE INFORMATION COLLECTION

	1(a)	Title and Number of the Information Collection

	Title:	Request for Contractor Access to TSCA Confidential Business
Information

		EPA ICR No.:  1250.098	OMB Control No.:  2070-0075

	1(b)	Short Characterization

EPA procures contract support to facilitate the performance of certain
duties.  EPA may require contractors to handle Toxic Substances Control
Act (TSCA) Confidential Business Information (CBI).  Each contractor
employee who will use TSCA CBI in the performance of his or her duties
must be authorized for access to TSCA CBI through a multi-step process. 
The TSCA CBI Protection Manual (EPA Publication 7700 A2, revised October
2003; see Attachment C) provides Federal and contractor employees with
guidelines and operating procedures for handling TSCA CBI while
performing their official duties, as well as the procedures to obtain
authorization for access to TSCA CBI.  

Specifically, for purposes of this information collection, contractor
personnel must submit to EPA the EPA form titled “TSCA CBI Access
Request, Agreement, and Approval” (EPA Form 7740-6) (Attachment A). 
The Information Management Division (IMD), Office of Pollution
Prevention and Toxics (OPPT), uses EPA Form 7740-6 to collect
information about contractor personnel so that the Agency can evaluate
their suitability for access to TSCA CBI.  EPA stores the information on
the OPPT Confidential Business Information Tracking System (CBITS).

2.	NEED FOR AND USE OF THE COLLECTION

	2(a)	Need/Authority for the Collection

	This information collection request is necessary to protect information
under provisions of TSCA section 14 (Attachment B).  It is necessary for
EPA to provide guidance to its employees, other Federal agencies and
contractors on the proper handling of CBI submitted to EPA under TSCA.

	This information collection activity is necessary to protect
confidential information submitted to the Agency as mandated by TSCA
section 14 and is consistent with 5 CFR 1320.6.  The consequences of not
collecting these data could be monumental to private industry.  Under
TSCA, industry is required to submit data that may be deemed to be
confidential, such as formulas and financial information related to
chemicals companies plan to produce.  EPA is obligated to protect these
data as outlined by TSCA section 14.  In addition, the Agency could
possibly harm businesses if these data were released to competitors.

	The information collected by this request will be used to evaluate
contractor personnel who will be authorized for access to TSCA CBI. 
Therefore the collection of information is necessary to provide the
protection mandated by TSCA.

	2(b)	Use/Users of the Data

	The information will be maintained within OPPT in paper copy files and
in an automated security access tracking system (CBITS, AXCON module)
with access limited to the OPPT TSCA Security Officer and Document
Control Officers (DCOs) in OPPT, other parts of EPA, in Regional Offices
and at contractor firms.

	The information will also be used to generate a monthly TSCA Authorized
Access List for distribution to DCOs for verification of Federal and
contractor employees authorized access to TSCA CBI.  The information
provided by contractor employees will not be released to sources who do
not have a valid “need to know.”  Information submitted by one
contractor will not be shared with another EPA contractor.  If this
information is not collected by the Agency, EPA will not be able to
evaluate the suitability of its contractor employees for TSCA CBI
access.

3.	NON-DUPLICATION, CONSULTATIONS, AND OTHER COLLECTION CRITERIA

	3(a)	Non-Duplication

	No other Federal agency or department could provide the information
necessary for EPA to authorize contractor personnel for access to TSCA
CBI.  The data being collected are not available from any other sources
and can only be collected from individuals themselves.

	3(b)	Public Notice Required Prior to ICR Submission to OMB

	  SEQ CHAPTER \h \r 1 Prior to submission to OMB, this ICR will be made
available to the public for comment through a Federal Register notice. 
The public will have 60 days to provide comments.  Any comments received
will be given consideration when completing the supporting statement
that is submitted to OMBIn proposing to renew this ICR, EPA provided a
60-day public notice and comment period that ended on January 8, 2007
(71 FR 65809, November 9, 2006).  EPA received no comments during the
comment period.

	3(c)	Consultations

		  SEQ CHAPTER \h \r 1 Under 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1) OMB requires agencies
to consult with potential ICR respondents and data users about specific
aspects of ICRs before submitting an original or renewal ICR to OMB for
review and approval.  In accordance with this regulation, EPA will
pursue additional consultations with interested parties during the
development of the renewal of this collection.

Under 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), OMB requires agencies to consult with
potential ICR respondents and data users about specific aspects of ICRs
before submitting an ICR to OMB for review and approval.  Accordingly,
EPA solicited the feedback of nine potential respondents via email.  The
individuals contacted were:

  SEQ CHAPTER \h \r 1 EPA received five responses to its solicitation
for consultations, none of which were of a nature, in EPA’s opinion,
that warranted revisions to the draft information collection.  A copy of
EPA’s consultations e-mail to the potential respondents, and copies of
the responses that EPA received, are found in Attachment D.

	3(d)	Effects of Less Frequent Collection

	This is a one-time information collection, if the clearance is renewed
annually.  When a clearance lapses, then a repeat of the initial
collection is required.  

	3(e)	General Guidelines

	This information collection complies with the general guidelines found
at 5 CFR 1320.5.

	3(f)	Confidentiality

	The information collected is stored at EPA Headquarters in paper files
and in a secured local area network, the Confidential Business
Information Tracking System (CBITS) AXCON module.  Any hard-copy
information that is discarded from the system is shredded.  The EPA form
used to collect these data contains a Privacy Act statement that
complies with the Privacy Act and OMB Circular 108.

	3(g)	Sensitive Questions

	There are no sensitive questions contained in this information
collection.

4.	THE RESPONDENTS AND THE INFORMATION REQUESTED

	4(a)	Respondents and NAICS Codes

	Respondents affected by this activity are found mainly under NAICS
codes 514 (Information Services) and 561 (Administrative and Support
Services).

			 

	4(b)	Information Requested

	(i)	Data Items

	To complete the form, the contractor employee must: describe why access
to TSCA CBI is necessary for the successful performance of his or her
duties under the contract; identify, by section of TSCA, the types of
CBI to which access is needed; and provide personal identification
information.  Justification statements are provided on the form and the
employee only has to designate which statement (A, B, C, D or Other) is
applicable.

	In addition, the contractor must appoint an employee to serve as a
liaison (DCO) between EPA and the contractor to handle issues relating
to employee access to TSCA CBI.  Contractor responsibilities for
maintaining the access list are explained under Chapter 2.D.l.f of the
TSCA Confidential Business Information Security Manual.  Contractor DCOs
must ensure that contractor employees read the security manual and
attend a security briefing.  The DCO is responsible for conducting a
review, on a monthly basis, of the TSCA CBI Authorized Access List to
determine whether any names should be added to or deleted from the list
or whether any employee’s access authority should be broadened or
narrowed.  Any changes to the list require approval by the EPA Project
Officer and the OPPT DCO.

	(ii)	Respondent Activities

	The process that contractor employees must go through in order to be
authorized access to TSCA CBI entails the following:

	(1)	Read EPA Form 7740-6.

(2)	Gather required information and complete the form.

	(3)	Submit the form to the contractor DCO for processing, compilation
and review.

(4)	The contractor DCO files an in-house reference copy of the form.

(5)	The contractor DCO forwards the form to the EPA Project Officer (or
Delivery Order Project Officer) for signature and to forward on to the
OPPT DCO for further review and processing.

(6)	The contractor employee views the TSCA CBI security video.

5.	THE INFORMATION COLLECTED - AGENCY ACTIVITIES, COLLECTION
METHODOLOGY, AND INFORMATION MANAGEMENT

5(a)	Agency Activities -- Inventory

	The contractor DCO forwards the EPA Form 7740-6 submitted by a
contractor employee to the EPA Project Officer.  The Project Officer
then signs the form (Section V) and forwards the form to the OPPT DCO. 
OPPT DCO staff review the form for completeness.  The form is processed
by the DCO staff and appropriate authorizing signatures are obtained;
the OPPT DCO is the final approval authority.  The information on the
form is then entered into the CBITS AXCON module.

	The information is retained within OPPT in paper copy files.  The
information is entered into CBITS with access limited to the OPPT
Security Staff and other Agency and Regional Office DCOs.  Current plus
one year of contractor information is maintained in the paper files. 
Paper files are destroyed by shredding after a contractor employee has
relinquished his/her access.

	5(b)	Collection Methodology and Management

	Once processed within OPPT, each EPA Form 7740-6 is reviewed by an EPA
Project Officer and the OPPT DCO, and the data are entered into CBITS. 
The monthly TSCA CBI Access List, which acts as a quality check on data
entry accuracy, is produced, published and distributed to TSCA DCOs. 
There is no public access to the TSCA CBI Authorized Access List, nor to
any of the information stored in the CBITS AXCON module.

	CBITS is housed on a secured Local Area Network with OPPT internal
access only.  The system is available to CBI-cleared users exclusively.

	5(c)	Small Entity Flexibility

	All contractors regardless of company size are treated in the same
manner.  The collection process is simple and straightforward and can be
completed quickly.



	5(d)	Collection Schedule

	The information is collected once per each individual contractor
employee requesting access authorization to TSCA CBI, provided there is
no lapse in clearance and the individual does not relinquish his or her
TSCA CBI access authorization.

  SEQ CHAPTER \h \r 1 6.	Estimating the Burden and Cost of the
Collection

	6(a)	Estimating Respondent Burden

	Eligible contractors were directly contacted in the development of
earlier versions of this ICR to determine the amount of time that would
be required by them to complete the tasks outlined in section 3 of this
ICR.  Because the requirements for this ICR have not changed from the
time the earlier estimates were made, the same estimates are used in
this analysis.  Currently 30 companies are under contract to EPA and
have a need to clear employees for access to TSCA CBI.  Those firms have
a total of 375 such employees cleared for access for an average of 12.5
CBI cleared employees per firm. 

	The per-employee burdens are given in table 6.1 and the total annual
respondent burden is shown in table 6.2.  In previous ICRs, the
breakdown of employees among managerial, technical and clerical
employees was approximately 33%, 58% and 9% respectively.  This same
breakdown was used in this analysis resulting in an estimate of 124
managerial, 217 technical, and 34 clerical employees.  The total annual
burden for all firms is estimated to be 601 hours.Eligible contractors
were directly contacted in the development of earlier versions of this
ICR to determine the amount of time that would be required by them to
complete the tasks outlined in section 3 of this ICR.  Because the
requirements for this ICR have not changed from the time the earlier
estimates were made, the same estimates are used in this analysis. 
During the past three years, 28 companies under contract to EPA had a
need to clear employees for access to TSCA CBI.  Those firms had a total
of 280 such employees cleared for access for an average of 10 employees
per firm. 

	The per-employee burdens are given in table 6.1.  In previous ICRs, the
breakdown of employees among managerial, technical and clerical
employees was approximately 33%, 58% and 9% respectively.  This same
breakdown was used in this analysis resulting in an estimate of 92
managerial, 163 technical, and 25 clerical employees.  The total annual
burden for all firms is 446 hours.

6(b)	Estimating Respondent Costs

	Respondent hourly costs in this ICR have been updated using the data
sources that have been used for this purpose in the past. The underlying
data come from the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Employer Costs for
Employee Compensation Supplementary Tables: Historical Data December
2006 – December 2008, US Bureau of Labor Statistics, March 12 2009.
These hourly cost estimates include wages, fringe benefits, and
overhead.   The wage and fringe benefit numbers are from the BLS data,
and the overhead allowance is calculated at 17% of the hourly wage.

Costs in this ICR have been updated using recent unpublished data from
the Bureau of Labor Statistics for the year 2005.  These wages include
fringe benefits and overhead.   Current labor rates are the following:

Category	Hourly wage	Fringe benefits	Overhead	Total hourly cost

Managerial	$43.22	$19.46	$7.35	$70.03

Technical	$35.29	$17.55	$6.00	$58.84

Clerical	$17.22	$8.33	$2.93	$28.48

	Labor Category		Hourly Rate

	Managerial			$63.61

	Technical			$53.02

	Clerical			$26.37

	Estimated total annual costs to the respondents are equal to $30,253
and are presented in table 6.3.  There are no capital costs for the
contractors associated with this collection.Estimated total annual costs
to the respondents are equal to $20,466 and are presented in table 6.3,
by activity and labor category.  There are no capital costs for the
contractors associated with this collection.

	6(c) 	Estimating Agency Burden and Cost

	The costs and burdens to the Federal Government are presented in the
table 6.4.  The Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics bases its
burden hour estimates on prior experience in gathering and processing
information associated with other information collections.  Hourly wages
for clerical support are based upon the salary for a GS-7, step1
($19.75).  Hourly costs for managerial and technical support are based
upon the salary for GS-15, step 1 ($57.90) and GS-12, step 1 ($35.03),
respectively.  The hourly rates were taken from the U.S. Office of
Personnel Management’s 2009 General Schedule for workers with the
Washington DC locality payment.  These hourly estimates were then
multiplied by 1.6 to account for benefits (EPA Instructions for
Preparing Information Collection Requests, 1992).  The hourly cost
estimates adjusted for benefits are $92.64 for managers, $56.05 for
technical workers, and $31.60 for clerical workers. Also included is an
estimated $6,500 cost for equipment.  The total cost to the Agency to
maintain the collection system is $57,604 per annum and the total Agency
burden is estimated at 1172 hours.

The costs and burdens to the Federal Government are presented in the
table 6.4.  The Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics bases its
burden hour estimates on prior experience in gathering and processing
information associated with other information collections.  Hourly wages
for clerical support are based upon the salary for a GS-7, step1
($17.57).  Hourly costs for managerial and technical support are based
upon the salary for GS-15, step 1 ($51.52) and GS-12, step 1 ($31.17),
respectively.  The hourly rates were taken from the U.S. Office of
Personnel Management’s 2006 General Schedule.  These hourly estimates
were then multiplied by 1.6 to account for benefits (EPA Instructions
for Preparing Information Collection Requests, 1992).  The inflated
hourly estimates yielded: $82.43 for managers, $49.87 for technical
workers, and $28.11 for clerical workers.  The total cost to the Agency
to maintain the collection system is $51,965 per annum and the total
burden was 1172 hours.

	6(d) 	Total Burden Estimates

	Table 6.5 displays the annual burdens and costs borne by respondents
and EPA, respectively, associated with preparing, filing and reviewing a
reporting form resulting from this information collection.

	6(e) 	Reasons for Change in Burden

The estimated annual burden to contractors has increased by 31 hours
(from 415 hours to 446 hours) in the total estimated respondent burden
compared with that identified in the information collection most
recently approved by OMB.  This reflects an increase in the number of
contractor employees that needed clearance.  This increase represents an
adjustment. Also, the costs to the industry respondents increased by
$4,978, because more employees needed clearance and because of increases
in wage rates.

Agency	  1,172.0	$57,60451,965

	6(e) 	Reasons for Change in Burden

The estimated annual burden to contractors has increased by 155 hours
(from 446 hours to 601 hours) in total estimated respondent burden
compared with that identified in the information collection most
recently approved by OMB.  This reflects an increase in the number of
contractor employees that needed clearance.  This increase represents an
adjustment. Also, the costs to the industry respondents increased by
$9,786, because more employees needed clearance and because of increases
in wage rates.

	6(f) 	Burden Statement

	The annual public burden for this collection of information is
estimated to average 1.6 hours per response.  According to the Paperwork
Reduction Act, “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.  For this collection
it 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.  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 number for this
information collection appears on page 1 of this document.  The OMB
control numbers for EPA’s regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after
appearing in the Federal Register, are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and
included on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable.
