SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supporting documents which explain in detail 
the information that the EPA will be collecting are available in the 
public docket for this ICR. The docket can be viewed online at 
www.regulations.gov. Materials can also be viewed at the Reading Room 
located at the EPA Docket Center, WJC West Building, Room 3334, 1301

of operations are 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m., Monday-Friday (except Federal

    Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, the EPA is soliciting 
comments and information to enable it 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. The 
EPA will consider the comments received and amend the ICR as 
appropriate. The final ICR package will then be submitted to OMB for 
review and approval. At that time, the EPA will issue another Federal 
Register notice to announce the submission of the ICR to OMB and the 
opportunity to submit additional comments to OMB.
    Abstract: In order to effectively implement and enforce final 
changes to 40 CFR part 257--Subpart B on a State level, owners/
operators of construction and demolition waste landfills that receive 
CESQG hazardous wastes will have to comply with the final reporting and 
recordkeeping requirements. This continuing ICR documents the 
recordkeeping and reporting burdens associated with the location and 
ground-water monitoring provisions contained in 40 CFR part 257--
Subpart B.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected by 
this action are the private sector, as well as State, Local, or Tribal 
Governments.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory under Section 
4010(copyright) and 3001(d)(4) of the Resource Conservation and 
Recovery Act (RCRA) of 1976.
    Estimated number of respondents: 152.
    Frequency of response: On occasion.
    Total estimated burden: 11, 219 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $1,951,843 per year, includes $374,184 
annualized labor and $1,577,659 annualized capital or operation & 
maintenance costs.
    Changes in Estimates: The burden hours are likely to stay 
substantially the same.
