PREFACE
ICF
Consulting
Inc.
(
Fairfax,

prepared
an
initial
09
April
2004
draft
of
this
document
(
91
pages,
Bryan
Groce,
USEPA­
OSW­
HWID
worktask
manager),
based
on
the
ICR
content
outline
provided
in
USEPA's
"
ICR
Handbook"
("
EPA's
Guide
to
Writing
Information
Collection

Under
the
Paperwork

Act
of

This
ICR
adheres
to
the
guidelines
stated
in
the
Paperwork
Reduction
Act
of
1995,
OMB's
implementing
regulations,
and
USEPA's
ICR
Handbook.
To
reduce
excess
reader
burden
from
redundant
text
content
created
by
adherence
to
the
USEPA
ICR
Handbook's
outline,
Mark
Eads,
OSW
Economist,
eliminated
redundant
sections
and
subsections
of
text
from
the
April
2004
draft
document,
by
revising
the
format
in
deviation
from
the
ICR
Handbook
outline.
Deviation
in
the
format
of
ICRs
is
anticipated
by
USEPA's
ICR
Handbook:

"
This
handbook
is
intended
to
serve
as
a
comprehensive
document,
offering
guidance
on
completing
ICRs
for
the
entire
spectrum
of
Agency
collection
activities.
Therefore,
as
you
use
it,
bear
in
mind
that
it
may
go
into
more
detail
in
certain
areas
than
you
need
or
find
helpful...
Never
let
the
handbook
become
an
obstacle
to
preparing
your
ICR."

The
format
revisions
involved:
°
Eliminating
subsection
1(
a)
"
Title
&
Number
of
the
Information
Collection"
which
was
a
duplicative
restatement
of
the
ICR
title
and
ICR
number
already
provided
on
the
title
page
to
this
document.
°
Eliminating
duplicative
text
in
subsection
1(
b)
"
Short
Characterization"
and
subsection
2(
a)
"
Need
&
Authority
for
the
Collection",
by
integrating
into
subsection
4(
b)
"
Information
Collected".
°
Eliminated
subsection
3(
e)
"
General
Guidelines"
which
is
duplicative
with
this
Preface.
°
Moving
subsection
6(
g)
"
Burden
Statement"
from
the
end
of
the
April
2004
draft
document,
to
the
front
of
this
revised
document
within
Section
1.
°
Moving
the
"
Respondent
Universe"
data
from
subsection
6(
d)
"
Estimating
the
Respondent
Universe
and
Total
Hour
and
Cost
Burden",
to
subsection
4(
a)
"
Respondents
and
SIC/
NAICS
Codes".
°
Changing
section
and
subsection
headings
and
numbering
sequence
(
to
reflect
above
changes).
°
Reducing
font
size
from
12
to
10,
and
reducing
page
margin
widths
(
to
reduce
overall
page
count).

The
revised
format
of
this
ICR
Supporting
Statement
is
also
consistent
with
OMB's
October
1995
instructions
on
the
format
and
information
content
of

provided
as
an
appendix
to
this

Cumulative
burden
hours
and
costs
are
based
on
a
3­
year
time­
span
over
which
the
ICR
is
effective,
and
over
which
USEPA
averaged
burden
and
cost
estimates.
Therefore,
cumulative
burden
is
equal
to
annual
burden
estimates
multiplied
by
three.

Respondent
Burden
(
Exhibits
1
to
18):
3.27
million
hours
at
an
average
annual
cost
of
$
153.0
million,
including
$
846,000
per
year
capital
cost
and
$
1.81
million
per
year
O&
M
cost.
Cumulative
burden
to
respondents
over
three
years
is
9.81
million
hours
at
a
cost
of
$
459.0
million.

Agency
Burden
(
Exhibit
19):
About
8,000
hours
at
an
average
annual
cost
of
$
0.3
million.
Cumulative
burden
to
the
Agency
over
three
years
is
about
24,000
hours
at
a
cost
of
$
0.9
million.

Total
Burden
(
Respondents
+
Agency):
3.28
million
hours
at
an
average
annual
cost
of
$
153.3
million.
Cumulative
total
burden
over
three
years
is
9.83
million
hours
at
a

USEPA
intended
the
manifest
to
serve
three
primary
purposes:
(
1)
to
serve
as
a
tracking
device
which
creates
clear
lines
of
accountability
among
the
participants
in
the
hazardous
waste
systems;
(
2)
to
serve,
together
with
other
USEPA
and
USDOT
requirements,
to
protect
human
health
and
the
environment
during
the
transportation
of
hazardous
waste
by
providing
information
on
the
waste
to
persons
handling
the
waste
and
to
emergency
response
personnel;
and
(
3)
to
provide
the
principal
basis
for
USEPA's
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements.

2
Pursuant
to
the
1995
Paperwork
Reduction
Act,
this
ICR
examines
only
Federal
information
collection
requirements.
It
does
not
address
State
requirements
(
e.
g.,
State­
optional
elements
of
the
manifest,
or
manifest
burden
associated
with
state­
only
regulated
hazardous
wastes).

3
This
ICR
examines
the
paperwork
requirements
and
average
annualized
respondent
burden
during
the
next
three
years,
under
the
RCRA
manifest
system,
as
amended
by
USEPA's
final
rule
establishing
the
revised
manifest
form.
USEPA
acknowledges
that,
during
the
first
18
months
after
publication
of
the
final
rule
establishing
the
new
manifest,
the
existing
manifest
will
be
in
use.
After
this
phase­
out
period,
the
revised
manifest
form
and
requirements
must
be
used.
The
final
rule
adds
new
paperwork
activities
to
the
existing
Federal
program
and
does
not
eliminate
any.
Hence,
this
ICR
captures
all
of
the
existing
Federal
manifest
requirements,
as
well
as
the
new
requirements
that
will
be
phased
in
18
months
after
rule
publication,
but
this
ICR
does
not
capture
the
final
rule's
burden
reduction
on
respondents
from
elimination
of
state
government
datafields
from
the
manifest
form.

NEED,
AUTHORITY
&
USE
FOR
THE
INFORMATION
2A.
Need
&
Authority
to
Collect
Information
This
ICR
801.15
is
a
final
rule
ICR
for
USEPA's
RCRA
hazardous
waste
manifest
system,
but
at
the
same
it
is
renewing
the
existing
information
collection
(
ICR
nr.
801.14)
for
a
three­
year
extension,
thereby
superseding
and
replacing
the
existing
ICR.
EPA's
authority
to
require
use
of
a
hazardous
waste
manifest
system
stems
primarily
from
Section
3002(
a)(
5)
of
the
1976
Resource
Conservation
and
Recovery
Act
(
RCRA)
(
See
also
RCRA
Sections
3003(
a)(
3)
and
3004.)
Regulations
are
found
in
40
CFR
262
(
registrant
organizations
and
generators),
40
CFR
263
(
transporters),
and
40
CFR
264
&
265
(
TSDFs).
Section
3002(
a)(
5)
of
RCRA,
as
amended,
directs
the
US
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(
EPA)
to:

"...
establish
requirements
respecting...
use
of
a
manifest
system
and
any
other
reasonable
means
necessary
to
assure
that
all
such
hazardous
waste
generated
is
designated
for
treatment,
storage,
or
disposal,
and
arrives
at
treatment,
storage,
or
disposal
facilities...
for
which
a
permit
has
been
issued..."

Under
this
authority,
USEPA
published
regulations
for
a
manifest
system
on
February
26,
1980
(
45
Federal
Register
12724).
1
USEPA
established
requirements
for
manifest
completion,
transmittal,
and
recordkeeping
for
hazardous
waste
generators
at
40
CFR
262
subpart
B,
for
transporters
at
40
CFR
263
subpart
B,
and
for
treatment,
storage,
and
disposal
facilities
(
TSDFs)
at
40
CFR
264
&
265
subpart
E.
In
1984,
USEPA
published
the
Uniform
Hazardous
Waste
Manifest,
which
consisted
of
a
Federally­
required
portion
(
i.
e.,
Federally
required
data
elements
in
Blocks
1­
20)
and
a
State­
optional
portion
(
i.
e.,
Blocks
A­
K
on
the
manifest
reserved
for
optional
State
use).
2
In
2005,
USEPA
finalized
modifications
to
the
RCRA
manifest
system
to
minimize
unnecessary
paperwork
burden
on
hazardous
waste
handlers
resulting
from
variable
State
manifest
data
requirements,
and
to
address
other
stakeholderrequested
improvements
to
the
manifest
system.
USEPA
proposed
these
modifications
on
22
May
2001
(
http://
www.
epa.
gov/
epaoswer/
hazwaste/
gener/
manifest/
mods.
htm).
Specifically,
USEPA
has
eliminated
the
State­
optional
blocks
from
EPA's
RCRA
manifest
form
(
EPA
Form
8700­
22
&
8700­
22A
continuation
sheet),
and
made
the
manifest
form
completely
uniform.
USEPA
has
also
established
special
tracking
procedures
for
international
hazardous
waste
shipments
(
i.
e.
exports/
imports),
rejected
waste
loads,
and
waste
container
residues.
In
addition,
USEPA
has
established
a
RCRA
manifest
printing
registry
process
at
40
CFR
262.21.
Under
these
regulations,
any
organization
(
e.
g.,
waste
handler,
commercial
printer,
State
agency)
can
register
with
USEPA
to
print
RCRA
manifests.
Members
of
the
public
can
only
obtain
blank
manifest
forms
from
these
registered
sources.
Manifest
users
must
use
the
newly
revised
manifest
18
months
after
publication
of
the
final
rule
in
the
Federal
Register.

Practical
Utility
&
Users
of
the
Information
(
a)
USEPA
Registry
of
Approved
Manifest
Printers
In
regard
to
the
USEPA
registry,
USEPA
will
review
the
initial
application
from
each
registrant
to:
(
1)
ascertain
basic
organizational
information
(
e.
g.,
name
and
address
of
organization);
(
2)
determine
if
the
registrant's
proposed
suffix
is
unique;
(
3)
evaluate
the
qualifications
of
the
printing
company;
USEPA­
OSWER
ICR
801.15
30
Dec
2004
7
(
4)
understand
how
the
registrant
intends
to
print,
use,
and
distribute
the
forms;
and
(
5)
review
the
registrant's
proposed
controls,
and
establish
additional
controls
as
needed,
to
ensure
that
the
registrant
tightly
controls
its
tracking
numbers
and
prints
a
quality
manifest.

EPA
will
review
the
registrant's
form
samples
to:
(
1)
evaluate
the
competence
of
the
registrant
to
print
the
manifest;
(
2)
evaluate
if
the
registrant's
form
satisfies
the
print
requirements
of
40
CFR
262.21(
f)
(
e.
g.,
by
visually
examining
the
samples
and
writing
on
them
to
see
if
they
convey
handwritten
imprints
legibly
from
copy
to
copy,
as
required
under
40
CFR
262.21(
f)(
5));
and
(
3)
ascertain
the
paper
type,
paper
weight,
ink
color
of
the
instructions,
and
binding
method
of
the
registrant's
form.

If
the
registrant
is
approved
to
print
the
form,
the
registrant
must
print
the
form
according
to
the
paper
type,
paper
weight,
ink
color,
and
binding
method
of
its
approved
samples.

(
b)
Manifest
Procedures
In
regard
to
the
manifest
procedures,
generators,
transporters,
and
designated
TSDFs
handling
hazardous
waste
are
required
to
complete
the
data
requirements
for
manifests
and
other
reports
primarily
to:
(
1)
track
each
shipment
of
hazardous
waste
from
the
generator
to
a
designated
facility;
(
2)
provide
information
requirements
sufficient
to
allow
the
use
of
a
manifest
in
lieu
of
a
USDOT
shipping
paper
or
bill
of
lading,
thereby
reducing
the
duplication
of
paperwork
to
the
regulated
community;
(
3)
provide
information
to
transporters
and
waste
management
facility
workers
on
the
hazardous
nature
of
the
waste;
(
4)
inform
emergency
response
teams
of
the
waste's
hazard
in
the
event
of
an
accident,
spill,
or
leak;
and
(
5)
ensure
that
shipments
of
hazardous
waste
are
managed
properly
and
delivered
to
their
designated
facilities.

Although
the
generators,
transporters,
TSDFs,
and
emergency
response
teams
(
in
the
case
of
accidents)
are
the
primary
users
of
these
records,
USEPA
may
review
these
documents
during
a
facility
inspection
to
make
sure
proper
records
are
being
kept
and
regulations
are
complied
with.
USEPA
also
reviews
and
responds
to
exception
reports,
discrepancy
reports,
and
unmanifested
waste
reports.

Any
person
who
offers
a
hazardous
material
for
transportation
in
commerce
must
describe
the
hazardous
material
on
a
USDOT
shipping
paper
in
the
manner
required
in
49

172
subpart
C.
A
shipping
paper
includes
  
a

order,
bill
of

manifest
or
other
shipping
document
serving
a
similar
purpose
and
containing
the
information
required
by

states
that
an
USEPA
RCRA
hazardous
waste
manifest
(

may
be
used
as
the

if
it
contains
all
the
information
required
by
49

NONDUPLICATION,
CONSULTATIONS
&
OTHER
COLLECTION
CRITERIA
3A.
Nonduplication
No
document
identical
or
similar
in
purpose
to
the
manifest
is
required
by
the
Federal
government
for
the
shipment
of
RCRA
hazardous
waste.
Although
a
USDOT
hazardous
materials
shipping
paper4
contains
most
of
the
information
contained
on
the
manifest,
it
does
not
appear
to
be
legally
sufficient
to
track
hazardous
waste
shipments
from
the
generator
to
the
designated
facility
(
i.
e.
from
"
cradle­
to­
grave").
For
example,
USDOT's
shipping
paper
does
not
require
USEPA
ID
numbers
and
signatures
of
the
transporters
and
all
other
chain­
of­
custody
entities
involved
in
shipping
or
handling
the
hazardous
waste.
USEPA
requires
such
signatures
and
identification
numbers
on
the
manifest
to
ensure
accountability
of
each
waste
handler
during
shipment
of
the
hazardous
waste.
Also,
since
USEPA
coordinated
the
development
of
the
manifest
with
USDOT,
the
manifest
form
can
be
used
as
a
USDOT
shipping
paper,
thus
eliminating
the
need
for
the
transporter
to
carry
both
documents.
Furthermore,
the
manifest
form
was
developed
as
a
means
of
standardizing
the
information
requirements,
both
Federal
and
State,
thereby
eliminating
the
need
for
a
generator
to
complete
and
a
transporter
to
carry
multiple
manifests
for
interstate
shipments.

Public
Notice
In
compliance
with
the
Paperwork
Reduction
Act
of
1995,
USEPA
issued
a
public
notice
in
the
Federal
Register
on
May
22,
2001
(
66
Federal
Register
28240)
proposing
to
revise
the
Uniform
Hazardous
Waste
Manifest
regulations
and
the
manifest
form
(
USEPA
Forms
8700­
22
&
8700­
22A),
used
to
track
the
offsite
shipment
of
hazardous
wastes
from
generators
to
site
of
ultimate
disposition.
USEPA
received
66
public
comments
in
response
to
the
May
2001
proposed
rule.
USEPA
reviewed
and
addressed
these
public
comments
in
preparing
the
final
rule
and
background
documents,
including
this
ICR.

3C.
Consultations
1985:
Manifest
officials
in
several
State
environmental
agencies
formed
an
International
Hazardous
Waste
Manifest
Coordinators
Group
(
IHWMCG)
to
address
manifesting
issues
and
to
increase
uniformity
among
State
manifest
programs.
1988:
The
IHWMCG
served
on
the
Association
of
State
and
Territorial
Solid
Waste
Management
Officials
(
ASTSWMO)
Manifest
Revisions
Task
Force
to
develop
regulatory
recommendations
to
USEPA
to
increase
consistency
in
the
use
of
the
manifest
across
the
country.
1990:
The
Task
Force's
recommendations
for
specific
modifications
to
the
Uniform
Hazardous
Waste
Manifest
were
submitted
to
USEPA
as
a
rulemaking
petition
on
January
8,
1990.
1992:
EPA
embarked
upon
a
negotiated
rulemaking
effort
in
an
attempt
to
take
advantage
of
the
near
consensus
already
reached
by
States
in
the
ASTSWMO
petition.
USEPA
hoped
that
solutions
could
be
easily
found
which
would
meet
the
needs
of
all
affected
parties.
These
solutions
essentially
were
based
on
the
consolidation
of
the
current
State
optional
requirements
into
the
Federal
portion
of
the
form,
and
while
these
changes
would
have
created
a
more
uniform
manifest
system,
they
would
not
have
resulted
in
the
kind
of
decrease
in
manifest
burden
the
Agency
sought.
1994:
EPA
consulted
with
waste
handlers
on
average
respondent
burden
hours
under
the
manifest
system
(
1994
and
1995).
USEPA
asked
respondents
to
estimate
the
average
burden
hours
for
completing
a
manifest,
exception
report,
discrepancy
report,
and
unmanifested
waste
report.
1996:
EPA
reestablished
an
Agency
workgroup
charged
with
building
upon
the
best
recommendations
of
the
negotiated
rulemaking
effort,
along
with
better
accommodating
the
Agency's
burden
reduction
goals.
1998:
EPA
held
forums
with
State
and
industry
representatives
and
other
interested
parties
to
discuss
the
Agency's
initiatives
to
reduce
regulatory
burdens
under
the
manifest
system.
1999:
Furthermore,
USEPA
contacted
State
manifest
programs
regarding
the
number
of
manifests
originating
in
their
State
and
one
TSDF
regarding
its
activities
in
reconciling
manifest
discrepancies.

2003:
The
majority
of
burden
assumptions
in
this
ICR
are
based
on
the
pre­
2003
outreach
efforts.
In
developing
this
current
ICR,
USEPA
conducted
further,
limited
outreach
to
understand
the
burdens
associated
with
its
final
rule.
Specifically,
USEPA
collected
information
on
burden
associated
with
the
registration
process
under
40
CFR
262.21
(
the
Agency
found
that
registrants
will
incur
approximately
$
500
in
developing
their
form
samples)
and
the
rejected
waste
and
container
residue
provisions
at
40
CFR
264.72
&
265.72
(
the
Agency
found
that
approximately
3%
of
shipments
received
by
the
designated
TSDF
are
rejected
or
identified
as
container
residues).
The
organizations
contacted

Effects
of
Less
Frequent
Collection
USEPA
requires
registrants
to
submit
an
initial
application
to
USEPA
under
40
CFR
262.21(
b)
and
form
samples
and
descriptions
under
40
CFR
262.21(
d).
These
are
one­
time
submittals.
Registrants
need
not
submit
any
other
application
information
under
40
CFR
262.21(
b)
or
(
d),
except
if
USEPA
requests
changes
or
has
questions.
If
USEPA
did
not
receive
these
submittals,
USEPA
would
not
be
able
to
determine
if
the
registrant:
°
will
tightly
control
its
manifest
tracking
numbers
to
ensure
that
each
number
pre­
printed
on
the
manifest
is
unique;
°
will
use
appropriate
quality
control
measures
to
print
a
quality
manifest
consistently;
and
°
is
competent
to
print
the
manifest.
USEPA
also
would
not
have
any
way
to
determine
if
the
registrant's
manifest
satisfies
the
print
requirements
at
40
CFR
262.21(
f).
USEPA
needs
to
visually
examine
the
samples
(
e.
g.,
to
determine
if
it
has
acceptable
copy­
to­
copy
registration;
if
the
instructions
on
the
back
of
the
copies
do
not
bleed
through;
if
the
binding
method
is
adequate;
if
the
paper
weight
and
paper
type
are
adequate
to
convey
handwritten
imprints
copy
to
copy).
An
approved
registrant
need
not
re­
submit
information
to
the
Agency,
unless
it:
°
updates
its
initial
application
approved
under
40
CFR
262.21(
c)
°
wants
a
new
suffix
°
seeks
to
change
the
paper
type,
paper
weight,
ink
color
of
the
instructions,
or
binding
method
of
its
approved
forms
°
seeks
to
change
the
printing
company.
In
regard
to
updates
to
the
application,
USEPA
needs
to
learn
about
any
updates.
For
example,
if
the
name
or
address
of
the
registrant
changes,
USEPA
must
be
informed
of
this.
If
the
registrant
updates
its
quality
control
methods,
USEPA
must
be
apprised
so
it
can
evaluate
the
updated
methods
and
require
modifications
if
needed.
Less
frequent
information
submittal
would
not
allow
USEPA
to
learn
about
these
important
updates
and
ensure
they
are
appropriate.
USEPA­
OSWER
ICR
801.15
30

In
regard
to
requests
for
a
new
suffix,
USEPA
needs
to
evaluate
the
registrant's
proposed
new
suffix
to
ensure
it
is
unique.
Each
registrant
must
generate
its
unique
manifest
tracking
numbers
using
its
unique
suffix.
If
registrants
do
not
submit
a
request
to
USEPA
for
a
new
suffix,
USEPA
will
not
have
a
way
to
ensure
that
a
registrant's
new
suffix
is
unique.
In
regard
to
changes
to
the
paper
type,
paper
weight,
ink
color,
or
binding
method
or
changes
to
the
approved
printer,
USEPA
must
evaluate
the
form
to
determine
if
it
satisfies
the
print
requirements
of
40
CFR
262.21(
f).
After
they
are
approved
to
print
the
form,
for
example,
some
registrants
might
seek
to
change
their
paper
type
to
a
lesser
grade,
which
may
not
effectively
convey
impressions
copy
to
copy.
Less
frequent
information
submittal
would
not
allow
USEPA
to
evaluate
changes
to
these
key
aspects
of
the
registrant's
form.
In
regard
to
the
manifest
requirements,
USEPA
does
not
collect
manifests
under
normal
situations,
but
requires
instead
preparation
of
the
manifest,
use
of
the
manifest
during
transportation,
and
recordkeeping
of
the
manifests
for
a
3­
year
period.
Manifests
are
only
collected
by
USEPA
either
to
accompany
an
exception
or
discrepancy
report
or
in
the
case
of
an
export.
In
addition,
since
the
manifest
is
required
to
accompany
all
shipments
of
hazardous
waste
when
shipped
off
site
by
the
generator,
less
frequent
preparation
is
not
possible.
The
frequency
of
off­
site
shipment
is
determined
by
the
generator
and
depends
on:
°
the
quantities
of
waste
to
be
shipped
as
they
impact
the
economies
of
shipment
°
transporter
scheduling
°
the
applicable
regulatory
requirements.
The
present
system
gives
the
generator
the
opportunity
to
maximize
the
economies
of
off­
site
shipments
by
selecting
a
shipping
frequency
that
is
appropriate
for
the
rate
of
waste
generation.
Further,
by
requiring
a
manifest
to
accompany
each
shipment,
USEPA
ensures
the
manifest
is
available
in
the
case
of
a
discharge
of
hazardous
waste
during
transportation.
Information
on
the
manifest
could
be
useful
to
emergency
response
personnel
responding
to
the
scene.
In
this
regard,
less
frequent
manifesting
could
result
in
a
less
expedient
or
protective
response
to
the
release.
Note,
however,
that
USEPA
provides
a
manifest
exemption
at
40
CFR
262.20(
e)
and
(
f)
for
specified
types
of
shipments,
as
appropriate.
Under
40
CFR
262.20(
e),
small
quantity
generators
(
SQGs),
or
those
generators
who
generate
between
100
and
1,000
kilograms/
month
of
hazardous
waste,
can
be
exempt
from
manifest
requirements
if
the
waste
is
reclaimed
under
a
contractual
agreement
that
specifies
the
type
of
waste
and
frequency
of
shipments;
the
transporting
vehicle
is
owned
and
operated
by
the
reclaimer;
and
the
generator
retains
a
copy
of
the
reclamation
agreement
for
three
years
after
termination
or
expiration
of
the
agreement.
Under
40
CFR
262.20(
f),
generators
who
transport
hazardous
wastes
on
a
public
or
private
right­
of­
way
within
or
along
the
border
of
contiguous
property
under
the
control
of
the
same
person,
even
if
such
contiguous
property
is
divided
by
a
public
or
private
right­
of­
way,
are
exempt
from
manifesting
requirements.

Confidentiality
Section
3007(
b)
of
RCRA
and
40
CFR
2
subpart
B,
which
define
USEPA's
general
policy
on
the
public
disclosure
of
information,
contain
provisions
for
confidentiality.
However,
the
Agency
does
not
anticipate
that
businesses
will
assert
a
claim
of
confidentiality
covering
all
or
part
of
the
information
collection
requirements
covered
in
this
ICR.
If
such
a
claim
was
asserted,
USEPA
must
and
will
manage
that
information
in
accordance
with
the
regulations
cited
above.

There
are
basically
five
categories
of
entities
affected
by
the
respondent
activities
required
for
each
information
collection
element
discussed
in
this
ICR:
°
Registrant
organizations
(

°
Hazardous

generators
which
ship
hazardous

offsite
°
Hazardous

°
Agency
(

and
USEPA
regional

and

(

1)
Registrant
Organizations
As
displayed
in
Table
4,
USEPA
estimates
that
40
entities
will
apply
to
USEPA's
manifest
printing
registry
during
the
first
two
years
covered
by
this
ICR.
5
This
includes
the
roughly
20
States
that
currently
print
the
manifest
and
20
TSDFs
or
large
generators.
In
addition,
USEPA
used
its
best
judgment
to
estimate
that
the
Agency
will
receive
two
new
applications
in
the
third
year
covered
by
this
ICR.
6
Thus,
USEPA
estimates
that,
on
average,
14
registrant
organizations
will
be
subject
to
the
requirements
in
40
CFR
262.21
over
the
3­
year
period
covered
by
this
ICR.

To
determine
the
number
of
LQGs
and
TSDFs
shipping
hazardous
waste
off
site,
USEPA
used
information
from
the
Waste
Generation
and
Management
(
GM)
Form
and
the
RCRA
Subtitle
C
Site
Identification
(
Site
ID)
Form
of
the
2001

USEPA
then
eliminated
facilities
operated
by
the
Federal
government
(
i.
e.,
government­
owned,
government­
operated
facilities
(
GOGOs)
and
privately­
owned,
government­

(

These
percentages
are
based
on
an
analysis
of

10
In
estimating
the
number
of
SQGs
that
shipped
hazardous
waste
off
site,
USEPA
used
the
methodology
approved
by
USEPA's
Office
of
Solid
Waste
in
2000.
For
a
description
of
this
methodology,

Handlers
For
purposes
of
estimating
respondent
burden,
it
is
appropriate
to
distinguish
between
LQGs
that
generate
but
do
not
manage
hazardous
waste
onsite,
versus
LQGs
that
both
generate
and
manage
(
i.
e.,
treat,
store,
or
dispose
of)
hazardous
waste
on
site.
Specifically,
USEPA
has
found
differences
between
these
two
groups
in
their
manifesting
practices
and
number
of
outbound
shipments.
Based
on
USEPA­
OSW's
2001
RCRA
Hazardous
Waste
Biennial
Report
(
BR)
data
(
http://
www.
epa.
gov/
epaoswer/
hazwaste/
data/
brs01/
national.
pdf),
USEPA
estimates
that
17,462
LQGs
in
the
US
generate
but
do
not
manage
hazardous
waste
(
these
sites
are
referred
to
simply
as
"
LQGs"
in
this
ICR.)
In
addition,
2001
BR
data
indicate
that
1,209
sites
in
the
US
both
generate
and
manage
hazardous
waste
onsite
and
hence
qualify
as
TSDFs.
7
(
This
ICR
refers
to
these
1,209
sites
as
"
TSDFs
acting
as
generators.")
EPA
estimates
that,
of
the
1,209
TSDFs
acting
as
generators,
approximately
25%
are
commercial
TSDFs
(
302)
and
75%
are
captive
TSDFs
(
907).
8
USEPA
defines
a
commercial
TSDF
as
a
facility
whose
waste
management
capacity
is
available
to
any
generators
or
facilities
for
commercial
hazardous
waste
management,
or
to
a
limited
group
of
generators
or
facilities
for
commercial
hazardous
waste
management.
A
captive
TSDF
is
a
facility
that
receives
hazardous
waste
from
on­
site
sources
only,
or
from
on­
site
sources
and
off­
site
sources
that
are
part
of
its
same
company
only.
USEPA
estimates
there
are
significant
differences
between
commercial
and
captive
TSDFs
regarding
waste
volumes
managed
and
number
of
manifests
completed,
and
thus,
the
Agency
has
chosen
to
examine
their
manifest
preparation
burdens
separately
in
this
ICR.

To
determine
the
number
of
SQGs
that
ship
hazardous
waste
off
site
each
year,
USEPA
performed
an
in­
depth
analysis
of
data
from
the
2001
BR
and
data
from
other
USEPA
information
collection
instruments
(
e.
g.,
3010
Notification).
9
Based
on
this
analysis,
USEPA
estimates
that
113,132
SQGs
ship
hazardous
waste
off
site
each
year
and
are
subject
to
the
manifest
system.
10,
11
In
addition,
there
are
414
hazardous
waste
transporter
companies
subject
to
the
manifest
system.
12
Finally,
USEPA
referred
to
2001
BR
data
to
estimate
that,
each
year,
581
TSDFs
receive
hazardous
waste
from
off
site.

Of
the
113,132
SQGs
shipping
hazardous

off
site
each
year,
USEPA
estimates
that
93,132
must
prepare
and
transmit
a
manifest
with
their
off­
site
shipments
and
the
remaining
20,000
operate
under
a
reclamation
agreement
(
based
on
consultations
with
industry
in
Sept
2003).
As
provided
under
40
CFR
262.20(
e),
these
20,000
SQGs
need
not
undertake
any
manifesting
activities
for
their
hazardous
waste
shipments
to
the
recycling
facility.

Table

breaks
down
the
annual
number
of
manifests
that
accompany
domestic
shipments,
import
shipments,
and
export
shipments
to
non­
designated
OECD
countries.
Based
on
USEPA
consultations,
as
well
as
data
compiled
by
USEPA's
Office
of
Enforcement
and
Compliance
Assurance
(
OECA),
USEPA
estimates
that
1,725,143
manifests
accompany
domestic
shipments
of
hazardous
waste
and
19,509
manifests
accompany
export
shipments
to
non­
designated
OECD
countries
each
year,
including
Mexico
and
Canada.
In
addition,
USEPA
has
used
its
best
judgment
to
estimate
that
17,624
manifests
are
prepared
each
year
by
transporters
for
imported
hazardous
wastes
at
point­
of­
entry
into
the
US
and
all

EPA
estimates
that
each

Hence,
USEPA
estimates
that
1,760,218

USEPA
estimates
that
3%

(
29,337)
involve
partially
rejected
loads
or
container
residues
identified
after
the

ELEMENTS

5A.
Manifest
Printer
Registrant
Requirements
(
a)
Applying
to
the
Registry
40
CFR
262.21(
a)
provides
that
a
person
may
not
print
the
manifest
for
use
or
distribution
unless
his/
her
organization
(
e.
g.,
company,
State
agency)
has
received
approval
from
USEPA
to
do
so
under
40
CFR
262.21(
c)
and
(
e).
In
order
to
receive
USEPA
approval,
a
registrant
must
submit
to
USEPA
an
application
that
contains
the
information
specified
in
40
CFR
262.21(
b).
Upon
USEPA
approval
of
the
application,
the
registrant
must
submit
three
fully
assembled
manifests
and,
if
needed,
continuation
sheets
that
meet
the
specifications
of
40
CFR
262.21(
f)
and
a
description
of
the
form
samples,
as
specified
in
40
CFR
262.21(
d).
In
reviewing
these
submittals,
USEPA
may
request
modification
to
them
before
approval.
In
developing
the
registry
process,
USEPA
performed
thorough
consultation
with
waste
handlers,
commercial
printers,
and
States
and
concluded
that
it
is
imperative
for
USEPA
to
evaluate
the
printing
capabilities
and
form
samples
of
registrants.
Although
many
commercial
printers
have
developed
an
expertise
in
multi­
forms
printing
(
the
final
rule
requires
RCRA
manifests
to
be
printed
on
a
six­
copy
form),
USEPA
expects
that
certain
prospective
registrants
will
not
have
such
expertise.
Printing
the
manifest
requires
some
degree
of
sophistication
and
expertise
in
order
to
consistently
satisfy
the
performance
requirements
at
40
CFR
262.21(
f).
For
example,
registrants
must
design
their
manifest
so
that
handwritten
and
typed
imprints
are
legible
on
all
six
copies,
the
manifest
instructions
do
not
bleed
through
the
front
of
the
copies,
and
the
binding
of
copies
is
reasonably
secure.
Although
USEPA
intends
to
post
print
guidance
on
the
web,
significant
discretion
will
be
left
to
the
registrant
to
determine
the
appropriate
paper
type,
paper
weight,
ink
color
of
the
instructions,
and
binding
methods
that
will
satisfy
the
print
specifications.
Because
of
this,
it
is
essential
that
the
registry
review
samples
of
their
forms
to
determine
if
they
comply
with
the
print
specifications,
e.
g.,
to
evaluate
the
samples
to
see
if
they
comply
with
the
performance
requirements.
In
addition,
USEPA
and
the
States
are
keenly
interested
in
making
sure
that
manifest
tracking
numbers
pre­
printed
on
forms
are
tightly
controlled
and
remain
unique.
One
of
the
highest
priorities
of
the
registry
is
ensuring
that
each
manifest
used
or
distributed
to
the
pubic
has
a
unique
tracking
number.
Because
USEPA
will
allow
registrants
to
pre­
print
numbers
onto
their
manifests
without
any
ongoing
Agency
oversight,
it
is
essential
that
the
registry
evaluate
and
approve
the
registrant's
procedures
and
systems
for
controlling
their
tracking
numbers,
as
described
in
their
applications.

Generator
Requirements
The
1976
RCRA
statute,
as
well
as
regulations
promulgated
by
USEPA,
established
the
following
requirements
for
hazardous
waste
generators,
and
related
waste
handlers:
°
Large
Quantity
Generators
(
LQGs):
RCRA,
as
amended,
requires
USEPA
to
establish
the
"
use
of
a
manifest
system
and
any
other
reasonable
means
necessary
to
assure
that
all
such
hazardous
waste...
arrives
at"
the
designated
facility
(
Section
3002(
5)).
On
May
19,
1980,
USEPA
promulgated
regulations
calling
for
the
use
of
manifests
by
generators
of
greater
than
1,000
kilograms/
month
of
hazardous
waste,
thereby
establishing
the
manifest
system.
°
Small
Quantity
Generators
(
SQGs:
generators
of
between
100
and
1,000
kilograms/
month):
The
Hazardous
and
Solid
Waste
Amendments
of
1984
(
HSWA)
directed
USEPA
to
promulgate
standards
for
the
generation,
treatment,
and
disposal
of
hazardous
waste
produced
by
SQGs.
In
compliance
with
HSWA,
USEPA
promulgated
regulations
on
March
24,
1986,
that
require
SQGs
to
comply
with
the
manifest
requirements
of
40
CFR
262
subpart
B.
A
SQG
can
be
exempt
from
the
requirements
listed
in
this
section
when
its
waste
is
reclaimed
under
a
contractual
agreement
and
certain
other
conditions
are
met.
However,
the
SQG
must
maintain
records
of
the
agreement
for
at
least
three
years
after
termination
or
expiration
of
the
agreement,
as
required
by
40
CFR
262.20(
e)(
2).
°
Hazardous
Waste
Exporters:
On
August
8,
1986,
USEPA
promulgated
regulations
relating
to
the
export
of
hazardous
waste
out
of
the
US
to
supplement
the
1980
regulations.
40
CFR
262
subpart
E
sets
forth
special
manifesting
requirements
that
primary
exporters
must
meet
in
exporting
their
waste.

Rejected
Waste
and
Container
Residues
USEPA
has
promulgated
regulations
at
40
CFR
262.34(
j)
to
improve
the
tracking
of
rejected
waste
and
container
residues.
USEPA
has
also
expanded
the
definition
of
"
designated
facility"
to
include
generators
that
receive
rejected
loads
or
container
residues
from
the
TSDF
designated
on
their
manifest
to
receive
the
waste.
It
is
important
to
clarify
the
procedures
that
generators
will
need
to
follow
for
receiving
and
managing
rejected
load
or
container
residue
shipments
sent
back
by
the
designated
TSDF.
These
regulations
will
improve
hazardous
waste
tracking,
while
placing
minimal
paperwork
burden
on
generators
(
i.
e.
generators
need
only
sign
the
form
accompanying
the
problem
shipment
delivered
to
them).
Under
40
CFR
262.34(

a
generator
who
sends
a
shipment
of
hazardous
waste
to
a
designated
facility
with
the
understanding
that
the
designated

can
accept
and
manage
the
waste
and
later
receives
that
shipment
back
as
a
rejected
load
or

provisions
of
40
CFR

final
regulations
mandated
use
of

system
by

but
exempted
them
from
the
exception
report
requirements
applicable
to
LQGs.
On
June

the
Environmental
Defense
Fund
(

sued
in

US
Court
of
Appeals
for
the
reinstatement
of
the
exception

requirement.
Under
the
terms
of
the
settlement
agreement
negotiated
with
EDF,
the
Agency
agreed
to
propose
a
modified
exception
report
requirement
for

and
to
take
comment
on
other
options
for
accomplishing
the

purpose.
On
September
23,
1987,
USEPA
promulgated
regulations
calling
for
exception
reporting
by
SQGs.
These
regulations
are
similar
to
the

except
that
the

the
length

need
only
note

A
critical
part
of
the

system
is
the
use
of
multiple
copies
of
the
manifest
to
track
the
shipment
of
hazardous
waste
as
it
moves
from
the
generator
to
the
designated
TSDF
by
way
of
the
transporter.
Regulations
found
in
40
CFR
263
subpart
B
require
transporters
to
ensure
that
the
manifest
accompanies
the
hazardous
waste
during
transportation,
to
deliver
the
hazardous
waste
and
the
manifest
as
indicated
on
the
manifest,
and
to
keep
records
of
the
manifests.
Under
40
CFR
263.20
&
263.22,
a
SQG's
waste,
transported
following
a
reclamation
agreement,
can
be
exempt
from
the
manifest
requirements
of
the
section.
However,
the
transporter
is
required
to
record
waste
generator
data
information
on
a
log
or
shipping
paper
and
retain
a
copy
of
these
records,
as
required
by
40
CFR
263.20(

transporters,
including
those
exporting

AGENCY
ACTIVITIES,
COLLECTION
METHODOLOGY
&
INFORMATION
MANAGEMENT
The
following
subsections
discuss
how
USEPA
will
collect
the
information,
what
activities
USEPA
will
perform
once
the
information
has
been
received,
and
how
USEPA
will
manage
the
information
it
collects
under
the
manifest
system.
The
subsections
also
include
a
discussion
of
how
the
information
collection
requirements
will
affect
small
entities.

6A.
Agency
Activities
The
Agency
activities
associated
with
the
manifest
requirements
include
the
review
of
exception
reports,
discrepancy
reports,
and
unmanifested
waste
reports.
The
Agency
reviews
these
reports
to
identify
potentially
non­
compliant
or
otherwise
unresolved
activities
that
warrant
Agency
attention.
For
example,
upon
receipt
of
an
exception
report,
the
Agency
may
conduct
a
follow­
up
investigation
to
assist
the
generator
in
locating
the
shipment.
The
Agency
keeps
these
reports
on
file.
In
addition,
USEPA
requires
manifest
form
printers
to
register
with
USEPA,
as
provided
under
40
CFR
262.21.
The
Agency
will
need
to
review,
process,
and
keep
records
of
the
data
submitted.
Note
that,
as
provided
under
the
regulations,
manifests,
shipping
papers,
contractual
agreements,
and
reclamation
agreements
are
not
formally
submitted
to
USEPA,
but
must
be
kept
on
file
at
the
generator's,
transporter's
or
TSDF's
location
and
made
available
to
USEPA
upon
request.
Accordingly,
this
analysis
does
not
include
Agency
activities
associated
with
review
of
these
documents.

6B.
Collection
Methodology
&
Management
Under
the
registry,
USEPA
will
collect
registrants'
initial
applications
under
40
CFR
262.21(
b)
through
the
regular
mail,
although
some
registrants
may
voluntarily
choose
to
send
them
by
certified
mail.
USEPA
will
examine
each
application
to
ensure
that
the
registrant
takes
appropriate
steps
to
control
its
tracking
numbers
and
print
a
quality
manifest.
USEPA
will
then
request
form
samples
from
the
registrant
through
the
mail.
USEPA
will
evaluate
each
registrant's
form
samples
to
ensure
they
satisfy
the
print
specifications
at
40
CFR
262.21(
f).
USEPA
will
then
keep
the
forms
on
file
for
future
reference.
USEPA
will
post
the
name,
manifest
tracking
number
suffix,
and
contact
information
of
each
approved
registrant
on
its
web
site,
so
that
the
general
public
is
aware
of
who
the
approved
registrants
are,
what
suffixes
have
been
approved,
and
how
to
contact
registrants
for
forms.
USEPA
collects
reports
submitted
by
waste
handlers
under
the
manifest
system
(
e.
g.,
exception
reports
and
discrepancy
reports)
through
the
regular
mail,
although
some
waste
handlers
may
voluntarily
choose
to
send
them
by
certified
mail.
USEPA
reviews
the
reports
to
understand
the
situation
at
issue
and
take
follow
up
action
as
needed.
USEPA
keeps
the
files
on
record
for
future
reference.

6C.
Small
Entity
Flexibility
The
current
regulations
require
both
large
and
small
quantity
generators
of
hazardous
waste
to
use
the
manifest
to
track
shipments
of
hazardous
waste.
However,
the
Agency
has
found
that
most
small
businesses
do
not
generate
hazardous
waste
either
at
all
or
in
large
enough
quantities
to
make
them
subject
to
regulation
and,
therefore,
are
not
affected
by
the
manifest
requirements.
Generators
of
less
than
100
kg/
month
(
conditionally
exempt
small
quantity
generators)
are
exempted
from
manifest
requirements.
Also,
USEPA
has
exempted
from
the
manifest
requirements
universal
wastes
(
i.
e.,
batteries,
mercury
thermostats,
lamps,
and
pesticides,
as
specified),
spent
lead­
acid
batteries
going
for
recycling,
and
used
oil
being
recycled
or
burned
for
energy
recovery.

(
1)
Contractual
Reclamation
Agreements
A
small
quantity
generator
(
SQG)
is
exempt
from
the
manifest
requirements
when
his
hazardous
waste
is
reclaimed
under
a
contractual
agreement,
and
he
complies
with
limited
requirements,
including
recordkeeping
of
the
contractual
agreement,
as
required
by
40
CFR
262.20(
e)(
2).

(
2)
Exception
Reports
The
exception
report
requirements,
under
40
CFR
262.42,
for
SQGs
are
less
stringent
than
those
for
large
quantity
generators
(
LQGs).
A
SQG
is
only
required
to
submit
to
USEPA
a
legible
copy
of
the
manifest
with
some
indication
he/
she
has
not
received
confirmation
of
delivery
and
has
60
days
to
fulfill
this
requirement.
LQGs,
on
the
other
hand,
are
required
to
contact
the
transporter
or
facility
owner/
operator
if
he/
she
has
not
received
a
copy
of
the
manifest
within
35
days.
In
addition,
if
45
days
have
passed
and
the
LQG
still
has
not
received
a
signed
copy
of
the
manifest,
he/
she
must
submit
a
copy
of
the
manifest
as
USEPA­
OSWER
ICR
801.15
30
Dec
2004
32
well
as
a
cover
letter
explaining
the
generator's
efforts
to
locate
the
hazardous
waste.
Hence,
the
exception
report
requirements
for
SQGs
are
not
as
burdensome.

Collection
Schedule
(

Registry
Document
Collection:
Registrant
Organizations
Before
printing
the
manifest
for
use
or
distribution,
registrants
must
submit
an
initial
application,
three
fully
assembled
manifests,
and
a
description
of
the
form
samples
to
USEPA.
USEPA
will
either
approve
the
registrant
to
print
the
forms,
or
request
modification
to
the
application
and/
or
samples
before
approval.
In
addition,
registrants
that
would
like
to
use
a
new
tracking
number
suffix,
change
the
printing
specifications
of
their
manifest,
use
a
new
printer,
or
typeset
their
manifest
subsequent
to
USEPA
approval
to
print
the
manifest
must
submit
additional
documentation
(
e.
g.,
proposed
suffix,
manifest
samples,
brief
description
of
the
new
printer's
qualifications
to
print
the
manifest),
as
specified.
Before
an
approved
registrant
can
change
its
form
in
regard
to
paper
type,
paper
weight,
ink
color
of
the
instructions,
or
binding
method,
or
before
using
a
new
printer,
it
must
seek
USEPA
approval
by
submitting
new
form
samples
and,
if
applicable,
a
description
of
the
new
printer.
Note,
however,
that
a
registrant
may
request
an
exemption
from
the
requirement
to
submit
form
samples
if
the
Agency
is
persuaded
that
a
separate
review
of
the
registrant's
forms
would
serve
little
purpose
in
informing
an
approval
decision.
Any
approved
registrant
wanting
to
update
any
information
provided
in
its
application
must
revise
the
application
and
submit
it
to
USEPA,
along
with
an
indication
or
explanation
of
the
update,
as
soon
as
practicable
after
the
change
occurs.
Finally,
an
approved
registrant
must
notify
USEPA
by
phone
or
email
as
soon
as
it
becomes
aware
that
it
has
duplicated
manifest
tracking
numbers
on
forms
that
have
been
used
or
distributed.
The
registrant
must
also
provide
information
on
its
printing
activities,
if
requested
by
USEPA.

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.
Therefore,
OMB
Control
No.
must
appear
on
the
front
page
of
the
manifest
form
(
EPA
form
8700­
22)
and
continuation
sheet
(
EPA
Form
8700­
22a).
The
OMB
control
numbers
for
EPA's
regulations
are
listed
in
40
CFR
part
9
and
48
CFR
chapter
15.
Additionally,
OMB
requires,
if
appropriate,
that
the
expiration
date
appear
on
the
front
page
of
an
OMB­
approved
form.
EPA
believes
it
is
inappropriate
to
include
the
expiration
date
on
the
manifest
form
and
continuation
sheet,
because
the
format
and
appearance
of
these
forms
will
not
be
affected
by
the
information
collection
renewal
process
for
this
ICR,
which
generally
will
occur
every
three
years
before
the
expiration
date.
Any
future
revisions
to
the
manifest
form
and
continuation
sheet
would
require
a
formal
rulemaking
process
(
e.
g.,
ANPRM
and
final
action),
including
a
revised
ICR
supporting
that
rulemaking.
Therefore,
the
manifest
form
and
continuation
sheet
do
not
include
an
expiration
date.

the
Agency
hour
and
cost

associated
with
the
new

covered
in
this
ICR
in
Exhibit

Based
on
the
General

USEPA
estimates
the
following
average
hourly
labor

rates):
°
$
66.26

Capital
costs
usually
include
any

to
provide
the
needed
information,
such
as
machinery,

other
equipment.
For
this
ICR,
USEPA
estimates
that
respondents
will
incur
capital
costs
associated
with
the
purchase
of

°
Annual
manifest
copies
for
file
storage:
Under
the
manifest
system,
generators,
transporters,
and
designated
TSDFs
must
keep
copies
of
manifests
and
other
manifest­
related
documents
for
a
period
of
three
years
(
the
RCRA
manifest
is
printed
as
a
six­
copy
form).
In
addition,
as
of
2001,
34
state
governments
collect
at
least
one
completed
manifest
copy
representing
76%
of
annual
manifests,
and
some
states
collect
two
copies,
both
initial
and
final
(
source:
USEPA­
OSW
"

for
the
final
rule).
Thus,
at
any
given
time
during
the
effective
period
of
this
ICR,
the
hazardous
waste
industry
and
state
governments
are
keeping
about
four
copies
of
three

worth
of
RCRA
manifests:
[(

Number
of

needed:
USEPA
estimates
that
a

office
five­
drawer,
lateral
file
cabinet
holds
16,000
pages
and
costs
$
640
each.

Thus,
for
storing
copies
of
RCRA
manifests,
waste
handlers
would
need
to
purchase
the
following
number
of
file
cabinets
each
year:
[(
21,152,712

Respondent
O&
M
Costs
O&
M
costs
are
those
costs
associated
with
a
paperwork
requirement
incurred
continually
over
the
life
of
the
ICR.
They
are
defined
by
the
Paperwork
Reduction
Act
of
1995
as
"
the
recurring
dollar
amount
of
costs
associated
with
O&
M
or
purchasing
services."
For
this
ICR,
O&
M
costs
include:

°
Mailing
costs:
USEPA
estimates
that
respondents
will
incur
a
cost
of
$
0.38
to
mail
a
one­
ounce
package
($
0.37
for
postage
and
$
0.01
for
standard­
size
envelope).
USEPA
also
estimates
that
respondents
will
incur
a
cost
of
$
3.64
for
mailing
a
larger
package
(
i.
e.,
a
five­
ounce
package)
by
certified
mail
($
1.29
for
postage,
$
2.30
for
the
certified­
mail
fee,
and
$
0.05
for
a
manila
envelope).
°
Photocopying
costs:
USEPA
estimates
that
respondents
will
incur
a
cost
of
$
0.10
for
each
photocopy
they
make.
°
Long
distance
telephone
call
costs:
USEPA
estimates
that
respondents
will
incur
a
cost
of
$
2.00
for
each
long
distance
telephone
call
they
make.
°
Printing
cost
for
sample
manifests:
USEPA
estimates
that
respondents
will
incur
a
cost
of
$
500
for
each
set
of
manifest
form
samples.
These
respondents
are
expected
to
contract
with
a
printing
company.
Hence,
the
fee
of
$
500
is
considered
a
lump­
sum
cost.

These
O&
M
costs
are
shown
in
Exhibits

for
all
applicable
respondent
activities.

USEPA's
estimates
of
respondents'

and
costs
associated
with
all
the
requirements
covered
in

presents
USEPA's
estimate
of
Agency
burden.

(
a)
Registrant
Organization
Requirements
(
a1)
Reading
the
Regulations
Exhibit
1
presents
the
total
annual
hour
and
cost
burden
to
registrant
organizations
in
reading
the
manifest
regulations
at
40
CFR
262.21.
USEPA
expects
that
on
average,
14
registrant
organizations
will
read
40
CFR
262.21
regulations
each
year.

(
a2)
Applying
to
the
Registry
USEPA
estimates
that
each
year,
14
entities
will
register
with
USEPA
to
print
their
own
forms.
As
shown
in
Exhibit
1,
USEPA
estimates
that
all
14
entities
registering
with
USEPA
will
submit
an
application,
three
fully
assembled
manifests,
and
a
description
of
the
manifest
form
samples,
as
required
by
40
CFR
262.21(
b)
and
(
d).
USEPA
further
estimates
that,
USEPA­
OSWER
ICR
801.15
30
Dec
2004
35
each
year,
50%
of
registrants
(
i.
e.,
seven
registrants)
will
need
to
prepare
and
submit
a
revised
application
under
40
CFR
262.21(
c).
USEPA
expects
that
no
registrant
will
need
to
submit
revised
manifest
form
samples
under
40
CFR
262.21(
e).

(
a3)
Updating
General
Information
in
the
Approved
Application
USEPA
estimates
that,
each
year,
one
registrant
organization
will
revise
and
submit
its
application
to
USEPA,
along
with
an
indication
or
explanation
of
the
update,
under
40
CFR
262.21(
h)(
1).
USEPA
further
estimates
that
no
registrant
organization
will
need
to
respond
to
USEPA's
concerns
regarding
its
revised
application
during
the
3­
year
period
covered
by
this
ICR.
USEPA
will
provide
print
guidance
to
each
prospective
registrant
on
the
USEPA
website
to
assist
them
in
designing
an
approvable
form,
minimizing
the
likelihood
that
they
will
be
asked
to
resubmit
samples
to
the
registry.

(
a4)
Requesting
Approval
for
a
New
Tracking
Number
Suffix
EPA
estimates
that
no
approved
registrant
organization
will
request
a
new
tracking
number
suffix
during
the
3­
year
period
covered
by
this
ICR.
Because
each
manifest
tracking
number
consists
of
the
three­
letter
suffix
and
nine
digits,
each
registrant
will
be
able
to
generate
more
than
999
million
forms
using
its
original
suffix.
USEPA
does
not
expect
a
registrant
to
request
a
new
suffix
for
many
years.

(
a5)
Requesting
Approval
for
Changes
to
Printing
Specifications
or
Use
of
a
New
Printer
USEPA
estimates
that
no
registrant
organization
will
request
approval
for
changes
to
its
form
or
for
the
use
of
a
new
printer
during
the
3­
year
period
covered
by
this
ICR,
assuming
that
each
registrant
will
be
forward
looking
when
originally
applying
to
the
registry.
Applicants
will
determine
the
appropriate
paper
type,
paper
weight,
and
other
form
aspects,
so
that
they
will
not
need
to
seek
changes
to
their
forms
subsequent
to
their
approval
under
40
CFR
262.21(
e).

(
a6)
Typesetting
the
Manifest
Form
Subsequent
to
its
Approval
USEPA
estimates
that
no
registrant
organization
will
typeset
its
manifest
form,
instead
of
using
the
electronic
file
of
the
forms
provided
by
USEPA,
during
the
3­
year
period
covered
by
this
ICR.
Upon
approval
of
a
registrant's
application
under
40
CFR
262.21(
c),
USEPA
will
provide
it
with
an
electronic
file
of
the
manifest,
continuation
sheet,
and
instructions
and
ask
it
to
use
these
files
to
develop
the
forms.
In
its
consultations,
USEPA
found
that
printers
intend
to
share
these
files
among
their
printing
establishments
so
that
none
will
need
to
typeset
the
form.
Typesetting
the
form
would
be
unappealing
to
registrants
because
of
the
level
of
effort
required
in
comparison
with
using
the
electronic
files.

(
a7)
Requesting
an
Exemption
USEPA
estimates
that,
each
year,
one
registrant
organization
will
submit
a
request
for
an
exemption
under
40
CFR
262.21(
j).
As
mentioned,
USEPA
expects
each
registrant
to
be
forward
looking
when
originally
registering
under
40
CFR
262.21(
b)
through
(
e),
and
carefully
select
the
appropriate
paper
type,
paper
weight,
and
other
aspects
of
the
form.
Therefore,
few,
if
any,
are
expected
to
request
changes
to
the
approved
form
subsequent
to
approval.

(
a8)
Notifying
USEPA
of
a
Printing
Specification
Violation
EPA
estimates
that
no
registrant
organization
will
notify
USEPA
that
it
has
duplicated
tracking
numbers
on
forms
used
or
distributed
to
other
parties.
Registrants
must
print
their
forms
according
to
their
approved
applications,
which
will
lay
out
procedures
for
tightly
controlling
their
tracking
numbers
and
ensuring
that
each
manifest
has
a
unique
number.
Because
of
these
assurances,
USEPA
expects
that
no
registrant
will
duplicate
its
numbers
and
notify
USEPA.

(
a9)
Revising
the
Approved
Manifest
if
Requested
by
USEPA
USEPA
estimates
that
no
registrant
organization
will
need
to
submit
revised
manifest
form
samples,
per
USEPA's
request,
during
the
3­
year
period
covered
by
this
ICR.
USEPA
will
carefully
review
each
registrant's
forms
under
40
CFR
262.21(
e)
to
determine
if
they
satisfy
the
requirements
of
40
CFR
262.21(
f).
USEPA
does
not
expect
to
identify
problems
in
forms
that
have
been
approved.

(

Responding
to
Suspension
and
Revocation
Procedures
USEPA­
OSWER
ICR
801.15
30
Dec
2004
36
USEPA
does
not
expect
to
conduct
suspension
or
revocation
procedures
during
the
3­
year
period
covered
by
this
ICR.
The
registration
process
under
40
CFR
262.21(
b)
through
(
e)
will
ensure
that
each
approved
registrant
is
capable
of
tightly
controlling
its
tracking
numbers
and
printing
forms
consistent
with
the
approved
samples
and
the
print
specifications.
Therefore,
USEPA
anticipates
it
will
rarely
invoke
its
suspension
and
revocation
procedures.

(

Requirements
(

the
total
annual
hour
and
cost
burden
to
hazardous
waste
generators
in
reading
the
manifest
regulations
at
40
CFR
262.
In
total,
USEPA
expects
that
131,803
generators
will
read
the
40
CFR
262
regulations
each
year.

(
b2)
Manifest
Completion
Exhibits
3
and
4
present
the
total
annual
hour
and
cost
burden
for
generators
to
complete
their
manifests.
Note
that
the
exhibits
reflect
the
fact
that
destination
sites
(
referred
to
as
designated
TSDFs)
often
provide
assistance
to
their
generator
customers
in
preparing
manifests
for
shipments
to
their
facility.
For
purposes
of
analysis,
this
ICR
assumes
that
a
percentage
of
LQGs
and
SQGs
rely
on
the
designated
TSDFs'
assistance
in
manifest
preparation,
while
the
remaining
LQGs
and
SQGs,
as
well
as
all
TSDFs
acting
as
generators,
prepare
their
manifests
themselves,
as
follows:

°
Completing
the
Manifest
Without
the
Assistance
of
Designated
TSDF:
Based
on
consultations
with
hazardous
waste
generators
and
the
States,
USEPA
estimates
that
about
58%
of
LQG
manifests
and
20%
of
SQG
manifests
accompanying
hazardous
waste
shipments
are
prepared
without
the
assistance
of
the
designated
TSDF.
This
is
reflected
in
Exhibit
3.
In
addition,
USEPA
estimates
that
about
5%
of
manifests
include
continuation
sheets.

°
Completing
the
Manifest
With
the
Assistance
of
Designated
TSDF:
As
discussed,
USEPA
recognizes
that
many
LQGs
and
SQGs
rely
on
the
assistance
of
the
designated
TSDF
to
complete
the
manifest
form.
Because
the
designated
TSDF
normally
fills
out
most
of
the
manifest
form
for
the
generator,
the
collaborative
effort
significantly
reduces
the
burden
on
generators.
Based
on
its
consultations,
USEPA
estimates
that
about
42%
of
manifests
from
LQGs
and
80%
of
manifests
from
SQGs
are
jointly
completed
with
the
designated
TSDF.
This
is
reflected
in
Exhibit
4.
[
Note:
Refer
to
Exhibit
14
for
the
hour
and
cost
burden
for
designated
TSDFs
to
assist
LQGs
and
SQGs
in
completing
their
manifests.]

(
b3)
Compliance
with
State
Program
Requirements
40
CFR
262.21(
g)(
2)
provides
that
generators
must
determine
whether
they
are
required
to
comply
with
requirements
specific
to
State
hazardous
waste
manifest
programs.
As
shown
in
Exhibit
5,
USEPA
assumes
that
each
generator
must
contact,
on
average,
three
State
manifest
programs
each
year.
Because
these
activities
are
already
required
under
State
hazardous
waste
programs,
they
are
not
burdened
in
this
ICR.

(
b4)
Manifest
Transmittal
and
Recordkeeping
As
shown
in
Exhibit
6,
USEPA
estimates
that
LQGs,
TSDFs
acting
as
generators,
and
SQGs
will
send
3%
of
their
manifests
with
water
shipments
and
6%
with
rail
shipments.
Generators
must
comply
with
the
requirements
of
40
CFR
262.23,
262.24,
and
262.40
when
transmitting
and
keeping
records
of
the
manifest,
as
appropriate.
In
addition,
USEPA
estimates
that,
each
year,
LQGs,
TSDFs
acting
as
generators,
and
SQGs
will
send
19,509
manifests
with
exports
of
hazardous
waste
and
17,624
manifests
with
imports
of
hazardous
waste.
Finally,
USEPA
estimates
that
approximately
20,000
SQGs
ship
their
hazardous
waste
off
site
under
a
reclamation
agreement,
pursuant
to
40
CFR
262.20.
These
SQGs
are
required
to
keep
a
copy
of
the
contractual
agreement
under
which
their
hazardous
waste
is
shipped
to
the
recycling
facility.

on
consultations
as
shown
in
Exhibit
7,
USEPA
estimates
that
roughly
0.10%
of
shipments
cannot
be
delivered
to
the
designated
TSDF
each
year.
Generators
must
provide
instructions
to
the
transporter
on
how
to
deal
with
these
shipments,
as
required
by
40
CFR
262.20(
d)
and
262.54(
g)(

Rejected
Waste
and
Container
Residues
As
shown
in
Exhibit
8,
USEPA
estimates
that,
each
year,
a
total
of
586
shipments
initiated
by
generators
will
be
rejected
by
designated
TSDFs
and
sent
back
to
the
generator
(
see
Table
8).
Upon
receipt
of
the
rejected
shipments,
generators
must
sign
the
manifest
that
accompanies
the
rejected
load
or
residue.

(

Exception
Reports:
Completion,
Submission,
and
Recordkeeping
EPA
estimates
that,
on
average,
LQGs,
TSDFs
acting
as
generators,
and
SQGs
will
need
to
develop
an
exception
report
under
40
CFR
262.42
for
approximately
0.5%
of
the
manifests
sent
off
site.
This
assumption
is
reflected
in
Exhibit
9.

Transporter
Requirements
(
c1)
Reading
the
Regulations
As
shown
in
Exhibit
10,
there
are
reportedly
414
hazardous
waste
transporter
companies
subject
to
the
RCRA
manifest
system.
USEPA
expects
that
each
company
will
read
the
manifest
regulations
once
a
year.

(
c2)
Manifest
Completion,
Transmittal,
and
Recordkeeping
Exhibit
11
examines
the
manifesting
hour
and
cost
burden
for
transporters
transporting
domestic
and
international
shipments
of
hazardous
waste.
USEPA
estimates
that,
of
themanifests
completed
and
transmitted
each
year
for
domestic
and
import
shipments,
approximately
91%
will
accompany
highway
shipments,
3%
will
accompany
water
shipments,
and
6%
will
accompany
rail
shipments.
USEPA
further
estimates
that
17,624
manifest
forms
will
accompany
imports
and
19,509
manifest
forms
will
accompany
exports
to
non­
designated
OECD
countries.
Finally,
USEPA
estimates
that
transporters
transporting
hazardous
waste
shipments
under
a
reclamation
agreement
will
need
to
comply
with
40
CFR
263.20(
h).

(
c3)
Undeliverable
Shipments
In
Exhibit
11
EPA
estimates
that
each
year
transporters
will
be
unable
to
deliver
approximately
1,762
shipments
of
hazardous
waste
they
have
accepted
from
a
generator
or
a
transporter
to
the
designated
facility
listed
on
the
manifest,
the
alternate
designated
facility,
the
next
designated
transporter,
or
the
place
outside
the
US
designated
by
the
generator.
These
transporters
will
have
to
contact
the
generator
for
further
directions
and
revise
the
manifest
according
to
the
generator's
instructions,
as
required
by
40
CFR
263.21.

(
d3)
Rejected
Waste
and
Container
Residues
Exhibit
11
also
provides
an
estimate
that
each
year
2,934
shipments
are
partially
rejected
while
the
transporter
is
still
on
the
premises.
The
transporter
must
follow
applicable
procedures
for
obtaining
the
manifest
from
the
facility
and,
if
it
accepts
the
forwarded
shipment,
it
must
obtain
the
new
manifest.
USEPA
estimates
that
29,337
shipments
initiated
by
generators
will
be
fully
rejected
by
the
designated
TSDF
while
the
transporter
is
on
the
facility's
premises.
For
these
shipments,
the
transporter
must
follow
applicable
procedures
for
obtaining
the
original
manifest
from
the
facility
in
order
to
forward
the
waste
to
the
alternate
facility
or
generator.

(

Notification
of
Discharge
of
Hazardous
Waste
The
Statistical
Abstract
of
the
United
States,
released
in
2001
by
the
US
Census
Bureau
indicates
that
there
were
16,977
accidents
involving
transporters
of
hazardous
substances
in
1999.
Of
these,
USEPA
estimates
that
approximately
5%
(
849)
involved
hazardous
waste
transporters
who
had
a
discharge
of
hazardous
waste.
In
Exhibit
12,
USEPA
used
its
best
professional
judgment
to
estimate
that
approximately
849
hazardous
waste
transporters
will
be
required
to
notify
local
authorities
of
a
hazardous
waste
discharge
annually,
as
required
under
40
CFR
263.30.
In
addition,
the
NRC
indicates
that
it
received
approximately
4,378
notifications
of
marine
source
incidents
in
2001
for
discharges
of
oil
or
hazardous
substances.
NRC
estimates
that
about
66%
of
these
incidents
involved
oil
discharges
(
2,919)
and
that
33%
involved
hazardous
substances
discharges
(
1,459).
Of
the
1,459
discharges
of
hazardous
substances,
NRC
estimates
that
5%
(
73)
involved
a
hazardous
waste.
As
shown
in
Exhibit
12,
USEPA
expects
that,
on
average,
73
water
transporters
transporting
hazardous
waste
will
notify
NRC
or
USEPA
under
33
CFR
153.
The
purpose
of
USEPA­
OSWER
ICR
801.15
30
Dec
2004
38
33
CFR
153
is
to
prescribe
regulations
concerning
notification
to
the
US
Coast
Guard
of
the
discharge
of
oil
or
hazardous
substances
as
required
by
the
Federal
Water
Pollution
Control
Act,
as
amended;
the
procedures
for
the
removal
of
a
discharge
of
oil;
and
the
costs
that
may
be
imposed
or
reimbursed
for
the
removal
of
a
discharge
of
oil
or
hazardous
substances.

(

Designated
Treatment,
Storage,
and
Disposal
Facility
Requirements
(
d1)
Reading
the
Regulations
Based
on
USEPA's
2001
RCRA
Hazardous
Waste
Biennial
Report
(
BR)
data,
USEPA
estimates
that
581
TSDFs
receive
off­
site
shipments
of
hazardous
waste
each
year.
As
shown
in
Exhibit
13,
USEPA
expects
that
each
facility
will
read
the
manifest
regulations
once
a
year.

(
d2)
Manifest
Completion,
Transmittal,
and
Recordkeeping
Exhibit
14
presents
USEPA's
estimates
that
approximately
42%
and
80%
of
manifests
from
LQGs
and
SQGs,
respectively,
are
completed
jointly
with
the
designated
TSDF.
In
addition,
USEPA
estimates
that
5%
of
these
manifests
include
continuation
sheets.
Exhibit
15
presents
the
burden
to
designated
TSDFs
for
receiving
and
completing
manifests
that
are
not
rejected
and
that
do
not
result
in
a
container
residue.

(
d3)
Compliance
with
State
Program
Requirements
40
CFR
264.71(
e)
and
265.71(
e)
provides
that
TSDFs
must
determine
whether
they
are
required
to
comply
with
requirements
specific
to
State
hazardous
waste
manifest
programs.
USEPA
assumes
that
each
TSDFs
must
contact,
on
average,
three
State
manifest
programs
each
year.
Because
these
activities
are
already
required
under
State
hazardous
waste
programs,
they
are
not
burdened
in
this
ICR.
This
is
reflected
in
Exhibit
15.

(
d4)
Discrepancy
Reports
As
shown
in
Exhibit
15,
USEPA
estimates
that
approximately
25%
of
manifests
accepted
by
the
designated
TSDF
require
reconciling
discrepancies
between
the
manifest
data
and
the
shipment
(
e.
g.
by
phoning
the
generator).
USEPA
further
estimates
that
about
0.4%
of
manifests
accepted
by
the
designated
TSDF
will
require
a
discrepancy
report
under
40
CFR
264.72
or
265.72.

(
d5)
Rejected
Waste
and
Container
Residues
°
Rejection
of
Waste
after
the
Transporter
Leaves
the
Facility:
As
shown
in
Exhibit
16,
USEPA
estimates
that
each
year
designated
TSDFs
will
reject
a
shipment
or
identify
a
container
residue
after
the
transporter
has
left
the
TSDFs'
premises
for
29,337
hazardous
waste
shipments
received.
°
Rejection
of
Waste
while
the
Transporter
Remains
Present
at
the
Facility:
As
shown
in
Exhibit
16,
USEPA
estimates
that
each
year
designated
TSDFs
will
fully
reject
or
identify
a
container
residue
while
the
transporter
is
on
the
TSDFs'
premises
for
29,337
hazardous
waste
shipments
received.
°
Manifest
Completion
by
the
Alternate
TSDF:
Also
shown
in
Exhibit
16,
USEPA
estimates
that
each
year
designated
TSDFs
will
reject
a
total
of
58,674
shipments
and
forward
58,088
shipments
to
an
alternate
TSDF
(
see
Table
8).

(
d6)
Unmanifested
Waste
Reports:
Completion
and
Submission
As
shown
in
Exhibit
17,
USEPA
estimates
that
designated
TSDFs
will
need
to
complete
approximately
173
letters
notifying
the
Agency
of
unmanifested
waste
shipments
each
year,
as
required
under
40
CFR
264.76
