TITLE
AND
NUMBER
OF
THE
INFORMATION
COLLECTION
This
information
collection
request
(
ICR)
is
entitled
"
Hazardous
Waste
Generator
Standards,"
ICR
Number
0820.09.
This
ICR
renews
the
previously
approved
ICR,
"
Hazardous
Waste
Generator
Standards,"
ICR
Number
0820.08.

CHARACTERIZATION
OF
THE
INFORMATION
COLLECTION
In
the
Resource
Conservation
and
Recovery
Act
of
1976
(
RCRA),
as
amended,
Congress
authorized
the
U.
S.
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(
EPA)
to
develop
and
administer
a
national
hazardous
waste
program.
The
core
of
the
program
is
the
regulation
of
hazardous
waste
from
generation
to
eventual
disposal,
i.
e.,
from
"
cradle
to
grave."
Sections
3001(
d)
and
3002
of
RCRA
authorize
EPA
to
develop
and
promulgate
regulations
for
generators
of
hazardous
waste.
Among
other
things,
EPA
is
authorized
to
establish
generator
standards
for
recordkeeping,
labeling/
use
of
containers,
use
of
a
manifest
system,
and
biennial
reporting
to
EPA.
[
Note:
This
ICR
does
not
cover
any
manifesting
or
biennial
reporting
requirements.
Manifesting
requirements
are
addressed
in
ICR
Number
801.
Biennial
reporting
requirements
are
addressed
in
ICR
Number
976.]
In
addition,
RCRA
section
3010
sets
forth
requirements
for
generators
and
other
hazardous
waste
handlers
to
notify
EPA
of
their
hazardous
waste
activities.
[
Note:
These
notification
requirements
are
addressed
in
ICR
Number
261.]
Finally,
RCRA
section
3017
sets
forth
requirements
for
exporters
exporting
hazardous
waste
from
the
United
States
(
e.
g.,
notification
and
annual
reporting
requirements).

In
1980,
EPA
promulgated
the
principal
elements
of
the
generator
requirements
in
40
CFR
part
262.
These
regulations
have
been
amended
on
several
occasions.
This
ICR
discusses
five
categories
of
information
collection
requirements
in
p
262:
hazardous
waste
determination
requirements;
pre­
transport
requirements;
air
emission
standards
for
large
quantity
generators
(
LQGs);
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements;
and
export
requirements.
Sections
1
through
5
of
this
ICR
describe
these
information
collection
requirements.
In
Section
6,
EPA
estimates
the
annual
burden
and
cost
to
respondents
and
the
Agency
in
carrying
out
these
requirements.

A
brief
summary
of
the
information
collection
requirements
at
40
CFR
part
262
is
provided
below.

HAZARDOUS
WASTE
DETERMINATION
REQUIREMENTS
40
CFR
262.11
requires
that,
if
a
person
generates
a
solid
waste,
he
or
she
must
determine
if
that
waste
is
a
hazardous
waste.
The
person
should
first
determine
if
the
waste
is
excluded
from
regulation
under
40
CFR
261.4.
He
or
she
must
then
determine
if
the
waste
is
listed
as
a
hazardous
waste
in
subpart
D
of
40
CFR
part
261.
For
purposes
of
compliance
with
40
CFR
part
268,
or
if
the
waste
is
not
listed
in
subpart
D
of
40
CFR
part
261,
the
generator
must
then
2
1
Note,
however,
that
40
CFR
262.34(
g)
provides
that
a
generator
who
generates
1,000
kilograms
or
greater
of
hazardous
waste
per
month
who
also
generates
wastewater
treatment
sludges
from
electroplating
operations
(
F006),
as
specified,
may
accumulate
F006
waste
on
site
for
more
than
90
days,
but
no
more
than
180
days,
without
a
permit
or
interim
status,
provided
that
the
generator
complies
with
specified
requirements
(
i.
e.,
basically
the
standards
applicable
to
LQGs,
as
modified
for
the
extended
accumulation
period.)
determine
whether
the
waste
is
identified
in
subpart
C
of
40
CFR
part
261
by
either
testing
the
waste
or
applying
knowledge
of
the
hazard
characteristics
of
the
waste
in
light
of
the
materials
or
the
processes
used.
If
the
waste
is
determined
to
be
hazardous,
the
generator
must
manage
it
according
to
applicable
RCRA
hazardous
waste
regulations.

LARGE
QUANTITY
GENERATOR
PRE­
TRANSPORT
REQUIREMENTS
LQGs
generate
1,000
kilograms
or
more
of
hazardous
waste
in
a
calendar
month.
LQGs
may
accumulate
hazardous
waste
on
site
for
90
days
or
less
in
tanks,
containers,
drip
pads,
or
containment
buildings
without
a
permit
or
interim
status
if
they
comply
with
requirements
specified
in
section
262.34.1
There
are
seven
categories
of
pre­
transport
information
collection
requirements
applicable
to
LQGs
included
or
referenced
in
section
262.34:
container
labeling,
personnel
training,
contingency
planning
and
emergency
procedures,
tank
systems,
drip
pads,
containment
buildings,
and
requests
for
extensions
of
the
accumulation
period.

(
1)
Labeling
40
CFR
262.34(
a)(
2)
and
(
3)
require
that
LQGs
label
each
container
or
tank
accumulating
hazardous
waste
with
the
date
upon
which
each
period
of
accumulation
begins
and
the
words
"
Hazardous
Waste."
Section
262.34(
c)(
1)
requires
LQGs
accumulating
either
hazardous
waste
or
acutely
hazardous
waste
at
or
near
the
point
of
generation
(
i.
e.,
at
satellite
accumulation
areas)
to
mark
the
containers
with
the
words
"
Hazardous
Waste"
or
other
words
that
identify
the
contents
of
the
containers.
Section
262.34(
c)(
2)
further
requires
that,
if
the
LQG
accumulates
hazardous
waste
or
acutely
hazardous
waste
at
a
satellite
accumulation
area
in
excess
of
specified
amounts,
the
LQG
must,
within
three
days,
move
that
excess
waste
to
a
90­
day
accumulation
area.
During
that
three­
day
period,
the
LQG
must
continue
to
comply
with
section
262.34(
c)(
1)
and
mark
the
container
holding
the
excess
accumulation
with
the
date
the
excess
amount
began
accumulating.

(
2)
Personnel
Training
Under
section
262.34(
a)(
4),
LQGs
must
comply
with
the
personnel
training
requirements
in
40
CFR
265.16(
d)
and
(
e).
LQGs
must
document
personnel
training
of
hazardous
wastes.
Required
information
includes
relevant
job
titles
for
each
position
and
the
name
of
each
person
filling
each
job,
a
written
job
description
and
necessary
qualifications
for
each
position,
and
the
training
given
to
the
individual
filling
that
position.

(
3)
Contingency
Planning
and
Emergency
Procedures
3
Under
section
262.34(
a)(
4),
LQGs
must
comply
with
the
preparedness
and
prevention
and
contingency
plan
and
emergency
procedure
requirements
in
subparts
C
and
D
of
part
265.
LQGs
must
record
whether
State
or
local
authorities
declined
to
enter
into
an
arrangement
to
become
more
familiar
with
the
generator's
facility
and
its
wastes,
prepare
and
maintain
contingency
plans,
and
comply
with
emergency
reporting
requirements.
The
contingency
plan
describes
the
actions
facility
personnel
will
take
should
a
fire,
explosion,
or
any
unplanned
sudden
or
non­
sudden
release
of
hazardous
waste
constituents
to
air,
soil,
or
surface
water
occur.
Local
emergency
response
teams
use
the
information
required
in
the
contingency
plan
to
minimize
unanticipated
damage
from
the
unintended
release
of
hazardous
waste.

Other
emergency
reporting
requirements
underp
265
subpart
D
include
notifying
the
Regional
Administrator
that
the
facility
is
in
compliance
with
specific
regulations
before
operations
resume
in
any
area
affected
by
an
emergency
situation
(
§
265.56(
i)),
and
submitting
a
report
to
the
Regional
Administrator
containing
details
of
any
emergency
situation
that
requires
implementation
of
the
contingency
plan
(
§
265.56(
j)).

(
4)
Tank
Systems
Section
262.34(
a)(
1)
requires
LQGs
that
accumulate
hazardous
waste
in
tank
systems
for
90
days
or
less
to
comply
with
part
265
subpart
J.
Depending
on
how
the
tank
owner
desires
to
comply
with
the
regulations,
he
or
she
may
need
to
perform
one
or
more
of
the
following:

!
A
no­
free­
liquids
demonstration
(
§
265.190(
a));

!
Existing
tank
system
assessments
(
§
265.191);

!
An
equivalent
containment
exemption
(
§
265.193(
d));

!
A
variance
from
secondary
containment
requirements
(
§
265.193(
g)
and
(
h));

!
Annual
leak
tests
and
inspection
documentation
(
§
265.193(
i):
§
265.195(
c));
or
!
An
exemption
from
the
24­
hour
leak
detection
requirement
(
§
265.193(
e)(
3)(
iii)).

In
addition,
if
any
LQG
has
a
new
tank
or
new
components,
he
or
she
must
perform
new
tank
system
assessments
and
certifications
(
§
265.192(
g)).
If
an
LQG
storing
hazardous
waste
in
tanks
has
a

SMALL
QUANTITY
GENERATOR
PRE­
TRANSPORT
REQUIREMENTS
Generators
who
generate
more
than
100
kilograms
and
less
than
1,000
kilograms
of
nonacute
hazardous
waste
in
a
calendar
month
and
less
than
1
kilogram
of
acute
hazardous
waste
in
a
calendar
month
are
small
quantity
generators
(
SQGs).
SQGs
may
accumulate
up
to
6,000
kilograms
of
hazardous
waste
for
180
days
(
or
270
days
if
the
generator
must
transport
the
waste
more
than
200
miles
to
a
hazardous
waste
management
facility)
without
a
permit
or
interim
status
if
they
comply
with
the
requirements
in
part

Applicable
information
collection
requirements
for
SQGs
include
labeling
of
containers
or
tanks
as
required
by
section
262.34(
a)(
2)
and
(

decline
to
enter
into
arrangements
to
become
familiar
with
the
site
and
section
262.34(
d)(

requires
SQGs
to
notify
and
provide
information
to
the
fire
department
in
the
event
of
a
fire,
or
the
National
Response
Center
immediately
in
the
event
of

Although
the
OECD
Decision
requires
the
use
of
a
tracking
document,
the
OECD
only
recommends
forms
for
notification
and
tracking
purposes.
Neither
the
OECD
nor
the
U.
S.
requires
their
use.
Therefore,
OECD
member
countries
are
allowed
to
use
any
document,
provided
all
of
the
required
information
is
contained
in
the
document.
If
OECD
decides
to
require
the
use
of
OECD
forms,
EPA
will
codify
this
requirement
and
assess
the
burden.
RECORDKEEPING
AND
REPORTING
REQUIREMENTS
All
generators
(
both
LQGs
and
SQGs)
must
comply
with
the
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements
detailed
in
sections
262.40
and
.43.
Section
262.40(
c)
requires
generators
to
keep
records
of
any
test
results,
waste
analyses,
or
other
determinations
for
at
least
three
years.
The
period
of
recordkeeping
is
automatically
extended
during
enforcement
actions,
and
by
the
request
of
the
Administrator.
Section
262.43
requires
generators
to
furnish
additional
reports
regarding
the
volume
and
nature
of
their
hazardous
wastes,
as
deemed
necessary
by
the
Administrator.

EXPORT
AND
IMPORT
REQUIREMENTS
All
generators
(
both
LQGs
and
SQGs)
must
comply
with
the
export
requirements
detailed
in
sections
262.52
­
.57,
if
applicable.
These
requirements
apply
to
"
primary
exporters,"
individuals
originating
a
manifest
for
the
export
of
a
shipment
of
hazardous
waste,
and
intermediaries
arranging
the
shipment
(
e.
g.,
brokers).
Persons
meeting
the
definition
of
"
primary
exporter"
are
required
to
notify
EPA
of
their
intention
to
export
hazardous
waste,
renotify
EPA
if
the
conditions
of
the
original
notification
are
altered,
file
an
Annual
Report
with
the
Administrator
summarizing
the
types,
quantities,
frequencies,
and
ultimate
destination
of
all
hazardous
wastes
exported
during
the
previous
year,
and
keep
copies
of
relevant
documents
for
a
period
of
three
years.
40
CFR
part
262,
subpart
H
requires
similar
notification
by
US
exporters
of
hazaroudous
waste
to
any
OECD
member
country,
however
some
additional
informaiton
is
required
as
part
of
the
Notification
of
Intent
to
Export
to
these
countries.
Futher,
EPA
may
also
request
that
primary
exporters
provide
additional
information,
as
requested
by
the
receiving
country.

Under
the
part
262,
subpart
E
export
regulations,
U.
S.
exporters
also
must
complete
and
transmit
a
Uniform
Hazardous
Waste
Manifest.
The
OECD
Decision
requires
exporters
of
hazardous
waste
to
complete
and
transmit
a
tracking
document.
2
Some
information
required
in
the
tracking
document
exceeds
that
presently
required
for
the
hazardous
waste
manifest.
Most
of
the
additional
information
required
for
the
tracking
document
under
the
OECD
Decision
is
information
necessary
for
the
OECD
Notification
of
Intent
to
Export.
A
tracking
document
is
required
each
time
an
export
shipment
of
hazardous
waste
is
initiated.
This
ICR
adresses
only
the
additional
data
elements,
and
not
the
basic
US
manifest
requirements,
which
are
addressed
in
ICR
Number
801.

Under
the
non­
OECD
hazardous
waste
import
regulations,
U.
S.
hazardous
waste
management
facilities
regulated
under
40
CFR
part
264
or
265
must
notify
EPA
at
least
four
weeks
prior
to
the
date
of
receipt
of
hazardous
waste
imports.
Importing
facilities
must
confirm
receipt
of
the
shipment
by
sending
a
signed
copy
of
the
manifest
to
the
generator,
e.
g.,
foreign
8
generator
or
U.
S.
importer
(
40
CFR
part
262,
subpart
F).
The
OECD
Decision
also
requires
recovery
facilities
importing
hazardous
waste
into
the
U.
S.
to
return
signed
copies
of
the
tracking
document
to
the
foreign
exporter
and
competent
authorities
of
the
concerned
countries
(
exporting,
importing,
and
transit,
if
any).
The
OECD
Decision
did
not
significantly
change
the
previously
existing
requirements,
but
required
the
signing
and
transmission
of
additional
copies
of
the
tracking
document
and
an
expedition
of
this
process
(
three
working
days
instead
of
30
days).

ZINC
FERTILIZERS
MADE
FROM
RECYCLED
HAZARDOUS
SECONDARY
MATERIALS
EPA
has
revised
regulations
at
part
261
that
apply
to
recycling
of
hazardous
secondary
materials
to
make
zinc
fertilizer
products.
Under
the
Rule,
zinc
fertilizer
manufacturers
and
their
suppliers
are
able
to
manage
hazardous
secondary
materials
outside
the
current
RCRA
management
system,
provided
they
meet
certain
conditions
involving
storage
of
the
material,
and
reporting
and
recodkeeping.
in
this
sense
the
rule
is
deregulatory
in
nature
and
relieves
industry
from
a
number
of
information
collection
requirements
that
would
otherwise
apply.
This
ICR
reflects
the
decreased
burden
for
these
generators,
and
a
separate
ICR
is
no
longer
necessary.

NEED
FOR
AND
USE
OF
THE
COLLECTION
2(
a)
NEED
AND
AUTHORITY
FOR
THE
COLLECTION
Under
sections
3001(
d)
and
3002
of
RCRA,
EPA
is
required
to
promulgate
regulations
applicable
to
generators
of
hazardous
waste
as
necessary
to
protect
human
health
and
the
environment.

HAZARDOUS
WASTE
DETERMINATION
REQUIREMENTS
Under
RCRA
section
3001,
Congress
authorized
EPA
to
develop
and
promulgate
criteria
for
identifying
the
characteristics
of
hazardous
waste,
and
for
listing
hazardous
waste,
which
would
be
subject
to
the
hazardous
waste
program.
In
implementing
this
mandate,
EPA
created
the
hazardous
waste
determination
requirements
at
40
CFR
262.11.
These
requirements
provide
that
generators
must
determine
if
their
solid
waste
is
listed
or
exhibits
a
hazardous
characteristic
based
on
testing
or
knowledge
of
the
waste.
Hazardous
waste
determination
requirements
are
needed
to
ensure
that
generators
and
subsequent
handlers
manage
and
dispose
of
the
hazardous
waste
in
compliance
with
the
hazardous
waste
program.

LARGE
QUANTITY
GENERATOR
PRE­
TRANSPORT
REQUIREMENTS
(
1)
Labeling
Section
262.34(
a)
and
(
c)
require
LQGs
to
label
containers
and
tanks
as
specified
(
e.
g.,
with
the
date
accumulation
began
and
the
words,
"
Hazardous
Waste").
EPA
and
LQGs
need
information
on
the
time
waste
began
accumulating
for
enforcement
and
monitoring
purposes.
9
(
2)
Personnel
Training
Section
262.34(
a)(
4)
requires
LQGs
to
maintain
copies
of
personnel
training
documents
and
records
(
under
§
265.16(
d)
and
(
e))
at
their
facilities.
Both
EPA
and
LQGs
need
information
in
personnel
training
records
to
determine
whether
employees
have
acquired
the
necessary
expertise
to
perform
their
jobs.
EPA
also
needs
this
information
to
review
personnel
records
to
determine
whether
employees
are
receiving
a
level
of
training
that
is
commensurate
with
their
duties
and
responsibilities
as
well
as
their
ability
to
respond
to
any
emergency
situations
at
the
facility.
Requiring
generators
to
maintain
personnel
training
documents
decreases
the
likelihood
that
employees
are
unqualified
to
handle
hazardous
waste
or
respond
to
emergencies.
The
personnel
recordkeeping
requirement
contributes
to
EPA's
goal
of
minimizing
the
potential
for
employee­
related
mistakes
that
may
threaten
human
health
and
the
environment.

(
3)
Contingency
Planning
and
Emergency
Procedures
Under
section
262.34(
a)(
4),
LQGs
must
comply
with
subparts
C
and
D
of
part
265,
which
detail
requirements
for
contingency
plans
for
effective
action
to
minimize
unanticipated
damage
from
the
accumulation
of
any
hazardous
waste.
These
regulations
require
LQGs
to
record
whether
State
or
local
authorities
declined
to
enter
into
arrangement
to
become
more
familiar
with
the
generator's
facility
and
its
wastes,
prepare
and
maintain
contingency
plans,
and
prepare
emergency
reports
whenever
imminent
or
actual
emergency
situations
occur.
EPA
inspectors
may
review
the
contingency
plans
to
determine
whether
LQGs
have
developed
adequate
procedures
to
respond
to
unplanned
sudden
or
non­
sudden
releases
of
hazardous
waste
or
hazardous
constituents
to
air,
soil,
or
surface
water.
Requiring
LQGs
to
develop
and
maintain
contingency
plans
and
prepare
emergency
response
reports
contributes
to
EPA's
goal
of
minimizing
unanticipated
damage
from
the
accumulation
of
hazardous
waste
at
generator
sites.

(

Tank
Systems
Under
section
262.34(
a)(
1)(
ii),
EPA
requires
LQGs
that
accumulate
hazardous
waste
in
tank
systems
to
comply
with
subpart
J
of
part
265.
These
requirements
ensure
that
LQGs
only
operate
tank
systems
that
are
fully
protective
of
human
health
and
the
environment
and
that,
if
releases
to
the
environment
occur,
action
is
taken
immediately.
These
requirements
also
contribute
to
EPA's
goal
of
preventing
contamination
of
the
environment
from
hazardous
waste
accumulation
practices.

iii),
EPA
requires
LQGs
that
accumulate
hazardous
waste
on
drip
pads
to
comply
with
subpart
W
of
part
265,
as
well
as
to
describe
and
document
waste
removal.
These
requirements
ensure
that
drip
pads
are
designed
and
used
in
a
manner
that
is
11
protective
of
human
health
and
the
environment.
The
information
collection
requirements
document
the
proper
design
and
use
of
this
type
of
unit.

(

Containment
Buildings
Under
section
262.34(
a)(
1)(
iv),
EPA
requires
LQGs
that
accumulate
hazardous
waste
in
containment
buildings
to
comply
with
subpart
DD
of
part
265,
as
well
as
to
document
the
existence
of
procedures
that
ensure
the
waste
remains
in
the
unit
for
no
more
than
90
days,
that
waste
generation
and
management
practices
are
consistent
with
90­
day
storage,
that
these
procedures
are
complied
with,
and
that
the
unit
is
emptied
at
least
every
90
days.
These
requirements
ensure
that
containment
buildings
are
designed
and
used
in
a
manner
that
is
protective
of
human
health
and
the
environment.
The
information
collection
requirements
document
the
proper
design
and
use
of
this
type
of
unit.

(
7)
Requests
for
Extensions
of
the
Accumulation
Period
EPA
promulgated
regulations
in
section
262.34(
b)
allowing
LQGs
to
request
from
the
Regional
Administrator
extensions
(
up
to
30
days)
of
the
accumulation
period
limit
due
to
unforeseen,
temporary,
and
uncontrollable
circumstances.
EPA
needs
information
about
the
extension
to
evaluate
the
cause
of
the
generators'
requests
for
extensions
and
to
approve/
deny
requests.
These
requirements
ensure
that
only
generators
genuinely
in
need
of
an
extension
are
allowed
to
accumulate
wastes
longer
than
90
days,
and
contribute
to
EPA's
goal
of
preventing
contamination
of
the
environment.

TRANSPORT
REQUIREMENTS
(
1)
Labeling
Section
262.34(
a)(
2)
and
(
3)
and
(
c)
require
SQGs
to
label
their
containers
and
tanks
as
specified
(
e.
g.,
with
the
words
"
Hazardous
Waste"
and
the
date
that
accumulation
began).
This
information
assists
SQGs
and
EPA
to
monitor
and
enforce
the
accumulation
requirements.

(
2)
Emergency
Procedures
EPA
promulgated
regulations
in
Section
262.34
requiring
SQGs
to
immediately
notify
the
fire
department
in
the
event
of
a
fire,
or
the
National
Response
Center
in
the
event
of
a
fire,
explosion,
or
other
release
which
could
threaten
human
health
outside
the
facility,
or
when
SQGs
have
knowledge
that
a
spill
has
reached
surface
water.
Applicable
provisions
also
require
SQGs
to
document
if
State
or
local
authorities
decline
to
enter
into
arrangements
to
become
familiar
with
the
site,
and
require
SQGs
to
post
emergency
information
near
the
phone.
EPA
needs
this
information
in
order
to
evaluate
and,
if
necessary,
respond
to
releases
of
hazardous
waste
into
the
environment.
It
also
increases
the
likelihood
that
appropriate
procedures
are
in
place
in
case
of
an
emergency.
This
information
also
contributes
to
EPA's
goal
of
quickly
responding
to,
and
minimizing
the
deleterious
effects
of,
hazardous
waste
releases
into
the
environment.

(

Requests
for
Extensions
of
the
Accumulation
Period
EPA
promulgated
regulations
in
section
262.34(
f)
allowing
SQGs
to
request
from
the
Regional
Administrator
extensions
(
up
to
30
days)
of
the
accumulation
period
limit
for
unforeseen,
temporary,
and
uncontrollable
circumstances.
EPA
needs
information
about
the
extension
to
evaluate
the
cause
of
the
generators'
requests
for
extensions
and
to
approve/
deny
requests.
These
requirements
ensure
that
only
generators
genuinely
in
need
of
an
extension
are
allowed
to
accumulate
wastes
longer
than
180/
270
days
(
depending
on
the
distance
to
an
off­
site
destination),
and
contribute
to
EPA's
goal
of
preventing
contamination
of
the
environment.

RECORDKEEPING
AND
REPORTING
REQUIREMENTS
13
Authority
for
the
recordkeeping
requirements
is
derived
from
RCRA
sections
2002
and
3002.
In
section
3002(
a)(
5),
Congress
directed
EPA
to
establish
requirements
regarding
"
recordkeeping
practices
that
accurately
identify
the
quantities
of
such
hazardous
waste
generated,
the
constituents
thereof
which
are
significant
in
quantity
or
in
potential
harm
to
human
health
or
the
environment,
and
the
disposition
of
such
wastes."
In
section
2002(
a)(
1),
Congress
authorized
the
Administrator
to
"
prescribe,
in
consultation
with
Federal,
State,
and
Regional
authorities,
such
regulations
as
are
necessary
to
carry
out
his
functions."
By
requiring
generators
to
keep
copies
of
test
results,
waste
analyses,
or
other
records
documenting
that
a
waste
is
hazardous
and
to
submit
additional
reports
requested
by
EPA,
EPA
will
have
a
better
understanding
of
which
waste
streams
at
a
facility
are
hazardous
wastes.
In
addition,
generators
will
have
more
immediate
access
to
the
information
describing
their
hazardous
wastes'
composition;
this
information
may
be
extremely
important
to
prevent
accidental
releases
(
along
with
the
resulting
environmental
and
human
health
problems).
Finally,
this
information
may
be
useful
to
the
generators
in
complying
with
reporting
requirements
of
other
environmental
laws.

EXPORT
AND
IMPORT
REQUIREMENTS
Authority
for
the
export
informational
requirements
is
derived
from
RCRA
section
3017.
Section
3017
directs
EPA
to
implement
requirements
for
individuals
exporting
hazardous
waste
from
the
United
States,
including
a
notification
of
the
intent
to
export,
and
an
Annual
Report
summarizing
the
types,
quantities,
frequency,
and
ultimate
destination
of
all
exported
hazardous
waste.
EPA
also
added
additional
requirements
for
generators
to
renotify
the
EPA
if
the
conditions
of
the
original
notification
are
altered
and
keep
copies
of
relevant
documents
for
a
period
of
three
years.
EPA
needs
this
additional
information
to
ensure
that
foreign
governments
consent
to
U.
S.­
exported
waste,
to
document
that
exported
waste
is
actually
managed
at
facilities
listed
in
the
original
notifications,
and
to
guarantee
that
these
documents
are
available
for
compliance
audits
and
any
enforcement
actions.
These
requirements
contribute
to
EPA's
goal
of
ensuring
that
all
hazardous
waste
generated
in
the
United
States
is
managed
in
a
manner
protective
of
human
health
and
the
environment.

EPA
may
also
request
that
primary
exporters
provide
additional
information,
as
requested
by
the
receiving
country.

USE
AND
USERS
OF
THE
DATA
HAZARDOUS
WASTE
DETERMINATION
REQUIREMENTS
Hazardous
waste
generators
must
follow
the
waste
determination
requirements
at
40
CFR
262.11
to
ensure
that
they
fully
and
accurately
determine
whether
their
solid
wastes
qualify
as
RCRA
hazardous
wastes.
Generators
who
determine
their
solid
waste
to
be
hazardous
must
handle
and
dispose
of
the
waste
in
compliance
with
the
hazardous
waste
program.
Generators
14
have
the
flexibility
to
use
either
testing
or
knowledge
of
the
waste
in
making
their
determinations.

Both
EPA
and
LQGs
use
information
in
the
personnel
training
records
to
ensure
that
personnel
acquire
the
necessary
expertise
to
perform
their
jobs.
During
inspections,
EPA
reviews
job
descriptions

included
in
the
contingency
plan
to
assure
an
appropriate
response
to
any

EPA
reviews
information
in
the
contingency
plan
and
emergency
report
to
determine
whether
additional
site­
specific
emergency
provisions
are
necessary.

EPA,
as
well
as
local
and
State
government
agencies
responding
to
any
releases,
uses
the
information
submitted
by
LQGs
under
section
262.34
to
document
and
respond
to
any
spills
or
other
unplanned
releases
of
hazardous
wastes
into
the
environment.

(

Tank
Systems
In
section
262.34(
a)(
1),
EPA
requires
LQGs
that
accumulate
hazardous
waste
in
tank
systems
to
comply
with
standards
detailed
in
part
265
subpart
J.
The
following
lists
each
information
collection
requirement
that
applies
to
tank
systems
and
describes
how
EPA
uses
the
information.

!
A
no­
free­
liquids
demonstration
(
§
265.190(
a)).
EPA
uses
this
demonstration
to
decide
whether
it
may
exempt
LQGs
that
meet
this
and
other
conditions
(
using
tanks
that
contain
no
free
liquids
and
are
situated
in
a
building
with
an
impermeable
floor)
from
the
requirements
of
section
265.193.

!
Existing
tank
system
assessments
(
§
265.191).
EPA
uses
this
information
to
assure
that
LQGs
operating
tank
systems
without
secondary
containment
carefully
evaluate
the
tank
systems'
primary
containment
capability
to
ensure
that
the
tank
systems
are
not
leaking.

!
New
tank
system
assessments
and
certifications
(
§
265.192).
EPA
uses
new
tank
system
assessments
and
certifications
to
assure
that
any
new
system
components
15
installed
at
the
LQG
facilities
are
appropriate
for
and
will
adequately
contain
hazardous
waste.

!
An
equivalent
containment
exemption
(
§
265.193(
d)(
4)).
EPA
may
grant
this
exemption
to
LQGs
that
can
demonstrate
that
their
release
containment
system
is
equivalent
to
a
liner,
vault,
or
double­
walled
tank.
This
exemption
lessens
the
burden
on
LQGs
without
compromising
public
health
or
the
environment.

!
An
exemption
from
the
24­
hour
leak
detection
requirement
(
§
265.193(
e)(
3)(
iii)).
EPA
may
grant
this
exemption
to
LQGs
that
can
demonstrate
that
existing
technologies
or
site
conditions
will
not
allow
detection
of
a
leak
within
24
hours.
This
exemption
allows
these
LQGs
to
use
a
system
that
will
detect
failure
and
contamination
at
the
earliest
practicable
time.

!
A
variance
from
the
secondary
containment
requirements
(
§
265.193(
g)).
EPA
may
grant
LQGs
a
variance
from
all
secondary
containment
requirements
if
they
can
demonstrate
that
alternative
design
and
operating
principles,
together
with
location
characteristics,
will
be
as
protective
of
the
environment
as
secondary
containment.
This
variance
lessens
the
burden
on
LQGs
without
compromising
public
health
or
the
environment.

!
A
notification
of
intent
to
conduct
and
submit
a
demonstration
for
a
variance
from
secondary
containment
(
§
265.193(
h)).
The
Regional
Administrator
must
be
notified
of
the
intent
of
an
owner
or
operator
to
conduct
and
submit
a
demonstration
for
a
variance
from
secondary
containment
so
that
EPA
can
evaluate
and
the
public
can
participate
in
the
process
and
to
reduce
the
burden
and
costs
without
compromising
protection
of
human
health
and
the
environment.

!
Annual

tests
and
inspections
for
LQGs
using
tests
that
do
not
meet
the
secondary
containment
requirements
(
§
265.193(
i)).
EPA
uses
this
information
to
ensure
that
hazardous
wastes
are
not
leaking
into
the
environment.

!
An
exemption
from
the
24­
hour
waste
removal
requirement
(
§
265,196(
b)).
EPA
uses
information
submitted
by
LQGs
under
these
sections
to
decide
whether
to
grant
the
exemptions.
EPA
regulations
require
facilities
at
which
there
has
been
a
spill
to
remove,
within
24
hours,
enough
waste
from
the
system
to
prevent
further
release
and
allow
for
inspection
and
repair
of
the
tank.
If
the
LQG
can
demonstrate
that
it
is
not
possible
to
do
so
within
24
hours,
EPA
will
allow
the
LQG
to
remove
the
waste
at
the
earliest
practicable
time.

!
Release
notifications
and
reports,
and
major
repair
certifications
(
§
265.196(
d)
and
(
f)).
EPA
uses
release
notifications
and
reports
to
document
hazardous
waste
releases
and
track
the
progress
of
their
cleanup.
In
cases
in
which
a
release
has
been
caused
by
major
system
damage,
the
Agency
uses
the
certifications
to
document
that
the
system
has
been
adequately
repaired.

Drip
Pads
16
EPA
requires
LQGs
that
accumulate
hazardous
waste
on
drip
pads
to
comply
with
contingency
plan,
assessment,
upgrading,
repair,
and
release­
related
information
collection
requirements,
as
well
as
to
document
the
proper
use
of
drip
pads
and
compliance
with
90
day
waste
removal
requirements
(
§
262.34(
a)(
1)(
iii))).
EPA
uses
these
data
to
ensure
that
drip
pads
are
protective
of
health
and
the
environment
and
are
designed,
improved,
repaired
and
used
in
a
manner
that
is
environmentally
sound.
Moreover,
EPA
uses
this
information
to
document
compliance
with
the
limitations
placed
on
generators
using
drip
pads
for
90­
day
accumulation.

(
6)
Containment
Buildings
EPA
requires
LQGs
that
accumulate
hazardous
waste
in
containment
buildings
to
comply
with
certification,
release
notification,
repair,
and
design­
related
requirements,
as
well
as
to
document
the
existence
of
storage
procedures
that
ensure
the
waste
remains
in
the
unit
for
no
more
than
90
days,
that
waste
generation
and
management
practices
are
consistent
with
90­
day
storage,
that
these
procedures
are
complied
with,
or
that
the
unit
is
emptied
at
least
every
90
days
(
§
262.34(
a)(
1)(
iv)).
EPA
uses
this
data
to
ensure
that
the
containment
building
is
designed
according
to
applicable
standards,
that
releases
are
reported
and
documented,
and
that
necessary
repairs
are
documented.
The
Agency
also
uses
this
information
to
document
compliance
with
the
90­
day
limit
on
waste
storage.
Overall,
these
requirements
ensure
that
containment
buildings
are
used
in
a
manner
that
is
protective
of
human
health
and
the
environment.

(

Requests
for
Extensions
of
the
Accumulation
Period
EPA
uses
the
information
submitted
in
the
accumulation
extension
period
request
to
determine
whether
a
generator
should
be
granted
additional
time
to
accumulate
waste
on
site
in
unforeseen,
temporary,
and
uncontrollable
circumstances.

Records
and
reports
required
in
40

subpart
AA
are
used
to
enable
EPA
to:
(
1)
identify
generators
that
are
not
in
compliance
with
the
standard
and
(
2)
ensure
that
the
standards
required
by
section
3004(
n)
are
being
implemented
effectively.
Based
on
reported
information,
EPA
can
decide
how
many
generator
inspections
will
be
needed,
which
generators
should
be
inspected,
and
what
records
or
processes
should
be
reviewed
at
the
generator
unit.
The
records
that
generators
will
maintain
will
play
a
significant
role
for
the
unit
owner
or
operator
in
assessing
unit
personnel
efforts
and
in
determining
whether
the
unit
is
in

Emergency
Procedures
EPA,
as
well
as
local

State
government
agencies
responding
to
any
releases,
uses
the
information
submitted
by
SQGs
under
section

to
document
and
respond
to
any
spills
or
other
unplanned
releases
of
hazardous
wastes
into
the
environment.
EPA
also
uses
this
information
to
assess
the
needs
and
state
of
readiness
of
generators
and
to
facilitate
appropriate
responses
in
cases
of
an
emergency.

(

EPA
uses
the

an
SQG
should
be
granted
additional
time
to
accumulate

in
unforeseen,
temporary,
or

circumstances.

RECORDKEEPING
AND
REPORTING
REQUIREMENTS
In
monitoring
compliance
and
enforcing
regulations,
EPA
relies
on
the
recordkeeping
requirements
in
sections
262.40
and
.43
to
provide
a
record
of
generators'
hazardous
waste
generation,
determination
status
(
e.
g.,
testing),
and
its
eventual
disposition.

EXPORT
AND
IMPORT
REQUIREMENTS
EPA
uses
the
information
submitted
by
primary
exporters
to
notify
and
seek
consent
of,
in
conjunction
with
the
Department
of
State,
the
receiving
country
and
any
transit
country
of
the
export
of
hazardous
waste.
EPA
also
uses
the
export
information
to
document
that
hazardous
wastes
being
shipped
to
foreign
treatment,
storage,
and
disposal
facilities
are
not
diverted
to
other
destinations.
EPA
uses
information
from
importers
to
determine
the
number,
origin,
destination
and
type
of
imports
to
the
U.
S.
for
tracking
purposes
and
for
reporting
to
the
OECD
as
required
by
treaty.
This
information
is
also
used
to
assess
the
efficiency
of
the
program.

NONDUPLICATION,
CONSULTATIONS,
AND
OTHER
COLLECTION
CRITERIA
3(
a)
NONDUPLICATION
Most
of
the
information
required
by
the
regulations
covered
by
this
ICR
are
not
available
from
any
source
but
the
respondents.
In
certain
occasions,
such
as
the
notification
of
intent
to
export
hazardous
waste,
EPA
allows
the
primary
exporter
to
submit
one
notice
that
covers
activities
over
a
period
of
twelve
months.

Although
some
of
the
information
required
for
the
hazardous
waste
manifest
and
the
tracking
document
is
substantively
the
same,
up
to
six
pieces
of
additional
information
are
required
for
the
tracking
document.
In
addition,
these
two
documents
serve
different
purposes.
A
signed
copy
of
the
hazardous
waste
manifest,
which
is
not
valid
beyond
U.
S.
borders,
is
dropped
off
at
the
U.
S.
Customs
check
point
when
the
shipment
leaves
the
U.
S.
to
verify
pertinent
information,
including
point
of
departure,
date,
destination,
and
contents
of
the
shipment.
The
tracking
document
must
accompany
the
shipment
until
it
reaches
the
foreign
recovery
facility.
The
signed
tracking
document
is
subsequently
returned
to
EPA
and
the
U.
S.
exporter
to
acknowledge
receipt
of
the
shipment
in
accordance
with
the
OECD
Decision.

In
certain
cases,
some
of
the
information
on
the
tracking
document
also
may
be
collected
by
the
Department
of
Commerce
in
its
Census
Bureau
form
titled
"
Shipper's
Export
Declaration"
(
15
CFR
part
30).
This
form,
which
is
required
for
all
shipments
that
have
a
value
in
excess
of
$
1,500,
must
be
filed
at
the
U.
S.
port
of
exit,
similar
to
the
current
export
requirements.
However,
the
information
contained
in
the
Census
Bureau's
form
is
not
adequate
for
EPA's
purpose
of
tracking
and
identifying
the
export
of
hazardous
waste
from
the
U.
S.
For
example,
the
wastes
are
identified
by
tariff
codes
that
are
less
precise
than
the
waste
codes
required
by
the
tracking
document.

3(
b)
CONSULTATIONS
The
regulations
covered
by
this
ICR
were
promulgated
using
proper
rulemaking
procedures.
EPA
made
every
effort
to
consult
with
the
general
public,
State
and
industry
officials,
and
appropriate
Federal
agencies
in
developing
the
regulations.
EPA
held
public
hearings
and
received
substantial
comments.
As
a
result,
EPA
has
made
a
number
of
modifications
to
its
original
regulations.

In
addition,
EPA
issued
this
supporting
statement
for
public
comment
on
July
7,
2004
(

EFFECTS
OF
LESS
FREQUENT
COLLECTION
EPA
has
carefully
considered
the
burden
imposed
upon
the
regulated
community
by
the
generator
standards.
EPA
is
confident
that
those
activities
required
of
respondents
are
necessary,
and
to
the
extent
possible,
have
attempted
to
minimize
the
burden
imposed.
EPA
believes

NAICS
codes
can
be
found
in
the
Federal
Register
at

strongly
that
if
the
minimum
requirements
specified
under
the
regulations
are
not
met,
neither
the
generators
nor
EPA
can
ensure
that
hazardous
wastes
are
being
properly
managed,
and
do
not
pose
a
serious
threat
to
human
health
and
the
environment.

HAZARDOUS
WASTE
DETERMINATION
REQUIREMENTS
21
40
CFR
262.11
requires
that,
if
a
person
generates
a
solid
waste,
he
or
she
must
determine
if
that
waste
is
a
hazardous
waste.
The
person
should
first
determine
if
the
waste
is
excluded
from
regulation
under
40
CFR
261.4.
He
or
she
must
then
determine
if
the
waste
is
listed
as
a
hazardous
waste
in
subpart
D
of
40
CFR
part
261.
For
purposes
of
compliance
with
40
CFR
part
268,
or
if
the
waste
is
not
listed
in
subpart
D
of
40
CFR
part
261,
the
generator
must
then
determine
whether
the
waste
is
identified
in
subpart
C
of
40
CFR
part
261
by
either
testing
the
waste
or
applying
knowledge
of
the
hazard
characteristics
of
the
waste
in
light
of
the
materials
or
the
processes
used.

Therefore,
this
analysis
assumes
that
the

EXPORT
AND
IMPORT
REQUIREMENTS
Agency
activities
associated
with
the
receipt
of
notifications
and
renotifications
of
intent
to
export
hazardous
waste
are
to
review
to
this

and
to
submit,
in
conjunction
with
the
Department
of
State,
a
notification
to
the
receiving

countries.
Upon
the
consent
(
or
refusal)
of
the
receiving
countries
to
the
receipt
of
the

the
Agency
will
forward
to

COLLECTION
METHODOLOGY
AND
MANAGEMENT
In
collecting
and
analyzing
the
information
required
under
the
generator
requirements,
EPA
uses
personal
computers
and
applicable
database
software,
when
appropriate.

5(
c)
SMALL
ENTITY
FLEXIBILITY
When
promulgating
the
regulations
covered
under
this
ICR,
EPA
considered
the
effect
of
these
regulations
on
small
businesses.
EPA
found,
however,
that
most
small
businesses
do
not
generate
hazardous
waste
and,
therefore,
are
not
significantly
affected
by
the
generator
standards.
EPA
has
been
directed
by
Congress
to
promulgate
standards
to
protect
public
health
and
the
environment.
In
certain
cases,
such
as
the
Annual
Report
requirements
for
primary
exporters
of
hazardous
waste,
EPA
has
limited
the
informational
requirements
for
small
generators.
These
facilities
do
not
have
to
include
a
description
of
efforts
taken
to
reduce
waste
volume
or
toxicity,
or
descriptions
of
any
variation
in
the
volume
and
toxicity
of
wastes
relative
to
previous
years.
Certain
categories
of
small
entities
are
exempt
from
the
information
collection
requirements
described
herein.
Others
are
subject
to
reduced
requirements.
The
training
requirements
do
not
apply
to
small
quantity
generators.
Nor
are
they
subject
to
the
contingency
plan
and
emergency
procedure
requirements.
Finally,
such
generators
are
subject
to
reduced
tank
standards
under
section
265.201.

COLLECTION
SCHEDULE
HAZARDOUS
WASTE
DETERMINATION
REQUIREMENTS
There
is
no
collection
schedule
for
generators'
hazardous
waste
determinations.

PRE­
TRANSPORT
REQUIREMENTS
(
FOR
BOTH
LQGs
AND
SQGs)

The
reporting
requirements
outlined
in
the
regulations
will
vary
according
to
individual
facility
circumstances.
Because
container
labeling
and
keeping
records
of
personnel
training
are
conducted
onsite,
a
discussion
of
a
collection
schedule
is
not
relevant.

There
is
no
collection
schedule
for
generators
reporting
releases
of
hazardous
waste
into
the
environment,
as
facilities
only
report
on
these
occasions.
The
emergency
coordinator
must
immediately
notify
the
appropriate
authorities
of
an
imminent
or
actual
emergency
situation.
An
LQG
must
submit
a
written
report
of
any
incident
that
requires
the
implementation
of
the
contingency
plan
within
15
days
of
its
occurrence.
Since
generators
are
not
required
to
submit
their
contingency
plans
to
EPA,
discussion
of
a
collection
schedule
for
these
facilities
is
not
applicable.

Records
of
tank
system
assessments,
statements
on
design
and
installation,
and
records
of
annual
leak
tests
and
inspections
are
kept
by
the
LQGs.
Therefore,
a
discussion
of
a
collection
68
schedule
is
not
applicable.
The
time
frame
for
submitting
demonstrations
provided
under
this
section
is
dependent
upon
the
desire
of
LQGs
to
submit
such
demonstrations.
However,
the
regulations
do
specify
time
frames
for
submissions
related
to
certain
situations.
LQGs
must
submit
release
notification
reports
within
30
days
of
detecting
a
release.
In
addition,
the
certification
of
major
repairs
(
required
under
§
265.196(
f))
must
be
submitted
within
seven
days
of
returning
the
repaired
tank
system
to
use.
With
regard
to
drip
pads,
plans
for
upgrading
drip
pads
must
be
prepared
2
years
before
completion
of
such
repairs,
pad
assessments
must
be
recertified
annually,
records
of
releases
must
be
documented
upon
detection
and
notice
provided
to
EPA
within
24
hours
(
written
notice
in
within
10
days),
and
notice
of
repairs
provided
upon
completion
of
such
repairs.
As
for
containment
buildings,
certification
that
the
building
meets
design
requirements
is
required
within
60
days
of
initiating
operation,
records
of
releases
must
be
filed
upon
detection
and
notice
to
EPA
provided
within
7
days
(
written
notice
within
14
days).
In
addition,
monitoring
data
must
be
placed
in
the
record
every
7
days.

There
is
no
collection
schedule
for
generators
requesting
extensions
from
the
Regional
Administrator
of
the
accumulation
period,
as
these
requests
presume
unforeseen
circumstances.

The
regulations
at

part
265,
subparts
AA
and
BB
for

do
not
specify
time
frames
for
submittals,
and
a
discussion
of
a
schedule
regarding
these
requirements
is
not
applicable.

RECORDKEEPING
AND
REPORTING
As
the
recordkeeping
regulations
in
section
262.40
do
not
require
the
transmittal
of
any
information,
a
discussion
of
a
schedule
regarding
this
requirement
is
not
applicable.
Additionally,
as
section
262.43
allows
the
Administrator
to
require
additional
information
of
generators
on
an
irregular
basis,
a
discussion
of
a
collection
schedule
is
not
applicable.

EXPORT
REQUIREMENTS
Generators
meeting
the
definition
of
primary
exporters
should
notify
the
EPA
60
days
before
the
initial
shipment
of
waste
is
scheduled
to
leave
the
United
States
(
§
262.53).
The
notifications
of
intent
to
export
are
collected
as
necessitated
by
generator
activities.
EPA
has
limited
the
burden
of
collection
by
allowing
one
notification
to
cover
activities
extending
over
a
twelve­
month
period,
unless
certain
conditions
are
altered.

Under
the
rule
codifying
the
OECD
Decision,
Notification
of
Intent
to
Export
submissions
and
tracking
documents
are
generated
and
sent
to
EPA
on
a
random,
occurrence­
specific
basis
for
which
there
is
no
formalized
schedule.
Once
these
events
do
occur,
notifications
must
be
sent
to
EPA
within
45
days
prior
to
initiating
waste
exports,
and
tracking
documents
must
be
sent
to
EPA
by
U.
S.
recovery
facilities
within
three
working
days
of
receipt
of
imported

RESPONDENT
COSTS
Exhibits

through
8
estimate
the
costs
to
generators
based
on
the
cost
of
labor,
operation
and
maintenance
(
O&
M),
and
capital.
For
purposes
of
this
analysis,
EPA
estimates
an
average
hourly
respondent
labor
cost
(
including
fringe
and
overhead)
of119.91
for
legal
staff,
$
85.82
for
managerial
staff,
$
62.30
for
technical
staff,
and
$
31.74
for
clerical
staff.
These
rates
are
based
on
previous
industry
consultations
and
have
been
updated
to
reflect
year
2004
salary
levels.

In
the
following
paragraphs,
EPA
estimates
capital
costs
associated
with
the
information
requirements
covered
by
this
ICR.
Capital
costs
usually
include
any
produced
physical
good
needed
to
provide
the
needed
information,
such
as
machinery,
computers,
and
other
equipment.
For
this
ICR,
the
only
required
capital
is
file
cabinets
for
maintaining
reports.
As
shown
in
Exhibit
9,
EPA
estimates
the
total
average
annual
capital
cost
to
all
generators,
collectively,
to
be
approximately
$
22,770.
In
ICR
0820.08,
EPA
took
the
following
steps
to
derive
these
costs:
70
!
Estimate
the
total
annual
volume
of
reports
required
to
be
retained
by
all
generators.
In
total,
EPA
estimates
that
LQGs
must
maintain
approximately
91
pages
of
reports
annually,
while
SQGs
maintain
approximately
2
pages.

!
Ascertain
the
number
of
standard­
size
file
cabinets
that
would
provide
the
needed
capacity
and
estimate
the
aggregate
purchasing
price.
Given
that
a
standard­
size,
five­
drawer,
lateral
file
cabinet
holds
approximately
16,000
pages,
EPA
estimates
that
the
hazardous
waste
industry
would
need
to
purchase
approximately
114
file
cabinets
each
year
(
i.
e.,
1,825,731/
16,000).
These
111
file
cabinets
represent
the
total
capacity
needed
by
the
industry,
collectively,
to
store
all
of
its
reports.
Based
on
its
consultations,
EPA
estimates
that
the
purchasing
price
for
one
file
cabinet
is
$
550,
and
for
all
114
file
cabinets,
$
62,700.

!
Annualize
the
aggregate
purchasing
price
using
a
net
present
value
formula.
EPA
used
the
following
annualized
net
present
value
formula
to
calculate
the
annual
cost
to
the
hazardous
waste
industry
to
acquire
these
file
cabinets:

Annual
Cost
=
$
62,700(
A/
P,
k,
t)

where
A/
P
=
capital
recovery
factor;
k
=
discount
rate
of
7
percent;
t
=
life
of
equipment
(
3
years).

Based
on
this
formula,
the
total
annualized
cost
of
file
cabinets
was
reported
in
ICR
0820.08
to
be
approximately
$
23,892.

°
For
this
ICR,
because
the
estimated
cost
of
one
file
cabinet
was
confirmed
to
be
the
same
as
in
previous
years,
the
total
costs
were
estimated
by
using
a
percentage
of
the
previous
total
based
on
the
decrease
in
the
universe
of
respondents.

O&
M
costs
are
those
costs
associated
with
a
paperwork
requirement
incurred
continually
over
the
life
of
the
ICR.
They
are
defined
by
the
PRA
as
"
the
recurring

amount
of
cost
associated
with
O&

For
this
ICR,
O&

Reading
the
Regulations
Based
on
the
2001
Biennial
Reporting
System
(
BRS),
which
is
the
most
current
available,
EPA
estimates
that
there
are
approximately
1,9081
LQGs.
In
addition,
EPA
estimates
that
there
are
1
new
entrant
exporter
LQG
under
the
OECD
agreement,
and
26
new
entrant
exporters
under
Bilateral
agreements.
However,
EPA
estimates
that
a
total
of
24
LQGs
will
be
newly
exempt
as
generators
of
zinc
bearing
materials
used
in
fertilizer,
and
an
additional
5
LQGs
will
be
newly
exempt
as
zinc
fertilizer
manufacturers,
for
a
total
of
19,097
LQGs.
A
number
of
these
LQGs
(
1,395),
however,
are
also
hazardous
waste
treatment,
storage,
and
disposal
facilities
(
TSDFs).
These
facilities
are
covered
by
other
ICRs
and
were
deleted
from
facilities
covered
in
this
document,
yielding
an
estimated
17,684
LQGs.
Based
on
its
analysis
of
the
2001
BRS
and
the
Resource
Conservation
and
Recovery
Information
System
(
RCRIS),
EPA
estimates
that
there
are
approximately
108,232
SQGs.
EPA
believes
that
a
number
of
the
LQGs
(
about
668)
and
SQGs
(
about
866)
also
are
government­
owned
and
government­
operated
facilities
and,
therefore,
not
addressed
in
this
ICR.
Subsequently,
these
government­
owned
and
government­
operated
generators
were
deleted
from
the
universe
covered
in
this
ICR,
yielding
an
estimated
17,016
LQGs
and107,366
SQGs.
As
shown
in
Exhibit
1,
approximately124,382
generators
comprise
the
respondent

As
shown
in
Exhibit

EPA
expects
that
each
LQG
will
average
one

to
read
the

once
a

HAZARDOUS
WASTE
DETERMINATION
REQUIREMENTS
(
Exhibit
3)

Under
40
CFR
262.11,
all
generators
must
determine
whether
their
solid
waste
qualifies
as
hazardous
under
RCRA.
Generators
may
test
the
waste
or
use
knowledge
of
the
waste
to
make
this
determination.

EPA
notes
that
generators
must
also
determine,
under
the
Land
Disposal
Restrictions
(
LDR)
Program,
whether
their
hazardous
waste
is
restricted
from
land
disposal,
as
required
by
40
CFR
268.7(
a)(
1)
and
268.9(
a).
EPA
has
burdened
generators
for
their
LDR
determinations
in
the
Land
Disposal
Restrictions
ICR,
Number
1442.

EPA
has
confirmed
through
consultations
that
generators
normally
make
their
hazardous
waste
and
LDR
determinations
simultaneously
and
therefore
do
not
incur
a
separate
burden
for
each
determination.
For
example,
a
generator
would
normally
make
a
single
request
to
a
laboratory
to
determine
if
its
waste
is
both
hazardous
and
restricted
from
land
disposal.
Given
this
reasoning,
EPA
does
not
burden
generators
in
this
ICR
for
making
hazardous
waste
determinations,
since
this
burden
is
already
reflected
in
ICR
1442.17.

Labeling
In
section
262.34(
a)(
2)
and
(
3),
EPA
requires
all
LQGs
to
label
containers
with
the
words
"
Hazardous
Waste"
and
the
date
of
accumulation.
EPA
expects
that
all
LQGs
to
comply
with
this
requirement.
In
section
262.34
(
c)(
1)
and
(
2),
EPA
requires
LQGs
accumulating
hazardous
waste
at
satellite
accumulation
areas
to
label
containers
as
specified.
EPA
expects
that
all
LQGs
will
comply
with
these
requirements
each
year.

(
2)
Personnel
Training
In
section
262.34(
a)(
4),
EPA
requires
all
LQGs
to
comply
with
the
personnel
training
requirements
in
section
265.16(
d).
Section
265.16(
d)
and
(
e)
require
that
LQGs
maintain
copies
of
personnel
training
documents
and
records
at
their
facilities.
Based
on
an
examination
of
historical
BRS
data
and
trends,
EPA
estimates
that
about
3744
LQGs
each
year
are
new
entrants
into
the
hazardous
waste
universe
and
will
be
required
to
collect
information
regarding
their
employees'
training
experiences.

7
Based
on
an
analysis
of
ERNS
data
finalized
in
April
2000.,
adjusted
to
2004
BRS
levels.
This
ICR
assumes
that
existing
LQGs
have
already
prepared
contingency
plans.
Therefore,
only
new
LQGs
will
be
required
to
document
whether
State
or
local
authorities
decline
to
enter
into
an
agreement
to
become
familiar
with
the
LQG's
facility
and
its
wastes,
and
to
prepare
and
maintain
a
contingency
plan.
EPA
estimates
LQGs
will
need
to
make
copies
of
and
send
the
plans
to
three
local
authorities,
on
average.
Amendments
to
contingency
plans
of
LQGs
must
also
be
made
when
appropriate.
EPA
estimates
that
3744
new
LQGs
will
prepare
original
contingency
plans
annually,
and
that1702
LQGs
will
amend
their
contingency
plan
annually,
during
the
period
covered
by
this
ICR.

Based
on
Emergency
Response
and
Notification
System
(
ERNS)
data,
the
Agency
estimates
that
about
1.7
percent
of
all
LQGs
will
have
emergency
incidents
requiring
implementation
of
the
contingency
plan.
7
Therefore,
approximately289
LQGs
will
be
required
to
prepare
emergency
reports
each
year.
LQGs
are
also
required
to
notify
the
Regional
Administrator
that
the
facility
is
in
compliance
with
section
265.56(
h)
before
resuming
operation
in
the
affected
areas.

(

Tank
Systems
In
section
262.34(
a)(
1),
EPA
requires
all
LQGs
that
accumulate
hazardous
waste
in
tanks
for
90
days
or
less
to
comply
with
subpart
J
of
part
265.
Of
all
17,016
LQGs,
EPA
estimates
that
75
percent
use
containers
to
accumulate
hazardous
waste,
and
the
remaining
25
percent
use
tank
systems.
The
respondent
universe
for
LQGs
operating
tank
systems
is
4,254
LQGs.

Depending
on
how
the
tank
owner
desires
to
comply
with
the
regulations,
he
or
she
may
need
to
submit
one
or
more
of
the
following:
a
no­
free­
liquids
demonstration
(
§
265.190(
a)),
existing
tank
system
assessments
(
§
265.191),
an
equivalent
containment
exemption
(
§
265.193(
d)),
a
variance
from
secondary
containment
requirements
(
§
265.193(
g)),
or
annual
leak
tests
and
inspections
(
§
265.193(
i)).
Most
LQGs
seeking
to
operate
under
these
conditions
have
already
made
the
required
demonstrations.
In
general,
only
LQGs
recently
subjected
to
hazardous
waste
regulations
will
need
to
perform
these
demonstrations.
EPA
estimates
that
approximately
three
percent
or
128
respondents
are
subject
to
the
leak
tests
and
that
one
percent
or
43
LQGs
are
subject
to
the
other
demonstration
and
testing
requirements
in
sections
265.190
through
265.193.

In
addition,
in
certain
circumstances
(
e.
g.,
a
new
tank,
a
hazardous
waste
release,
or
a
repair
to
a
tank),
LQGs
must
submit
one
or
more
of
the
following:
new
tank
system
assessments
and
certifications
(
§
265.192);
an
exemption
from
the
24­
hour
leak
detection
requirement
(
§
265.193(
e)(
3)(
iii));
or
release
notifications
and
reports,
and
major
repair
certifications
(
§
265.196(
d)
and
(
f)).
As
these
are
ongoing
informational
requirements,
EPA
estimates
that:
74
!
Three
percent
or
128
LQGs
will
need
to
make
new
tank
system
assessments
and
certifications.
Of
that
number,
approximately
four
facilities
will
petition
for
an
exemption
from
the
24­
hour
leak
detection
requirement;
and
!
One
percent
or
43
LQGs
will
report
a
release
or
a
major
repair
certification.
In
addition,
approximately
four
facilities
will
need
compile
evidence
of
their
inability
to
comply
with
the
24­
hour
waste
removal
requirement.

(

Drip
Pads
Under
section
262.34(
a)(
iii),
EPA
authorizes
LQGs
to
store
hazardous
waste
on
drip
pads
for
90
days
or
less
pursuant
to
part
265,
subpart
W.
Part
265,
subpart
W
is
primarily
applicable
to
those
facilities
conducting
wood
preserving
operations.
EPA
expects
that
most
existing
wood
preserving
sites
have
already
conducted
the
one­
time
activities
(
e.
g.,
contingency
planning,
integrity
assessments)
required
in
part
265.
New
entrants
to
the
wood
preserving
industry,
however,
would
be
subject
to
these
requirements.
Based
on
an
analysis
of
2001
BRS
data,
EPA
expects
that,
each
year,
10
new
sites
will
be
subject
to
these
one­
time
requirements.
EPA
further
expects
that
15
percent
of
facilities
(
2)
will
prepare
a
contingency
plan
for
incidental
drippage
and
will
have
a
condition
contributing
to
an
actual
release
of
hazardous
waste
and
be
subject
to
the
recordkeeping,
notification,
repair
and
certification
requirements.

(

Containment
Buildings
Under
section
262.34(
a)(
iv),
EPA
authorizes
LQGs
to
store
hazardous
waste
in
containment
buildings
for
90
days
or
less
pursuant
to
part
265,
subpart
DD.
Part
265,
subpart
DD
is
potentially
applicable
to
all
large
quantity
hazardous
waste
generators.
EPA
estimates
that
approximately
10
percent
of
the
LQGs
(
1,702)
use
containment
buildings.
EPA
estimates
that
three
percent
of
these
facilities
(
51)
will
be
subject
to
the
recordkeeping
and
notice
requirements
associated
with
hazardous
waste
releases,
and
that
25
percent
of
these
facilities
(
425)
will
require
documentation
for
areas
lacking
secondary
containment.

to
request
extensions
(
up
to
30
days)
of
the

limit
from
the
Regional

.
EPA
estimates
that
only
one
tenth
of
one
percent
of
all
LQGs,
approximately
17
LQGs,
will
request
this
extension
each
year.

will
be
subject
to
40
CFR
part

in
light
of
the
applicability

Based
on
an
analysis
of
the

EPA
estimates
that
4,764LQGs
are
subject
to
40
CFR
part
265,
subpart
BB.

(
a)
Notification
to
implement
the
alternate
valve
standard
specified
in
Section
265.1061(
a)

Based
on
previous
experience,
EPA
estimates
that
20
percent
of
generators
subject
to
subpart
BB
will
decide
to
implement
the
alternative
standard
specified
in
section
265.1061(
a)
each
year.
Therefore,
953
units
will
be
required
to
prepare
notification
to
implement
the
alternate
valve
standard
specified
in
section
265.1061(
a).

(
b)
Notification
to
discontinue
implementing
the
alternative
valve
standard
specified
in
Section
265.1061(
a)

Based
on
previous
experience,
EPA
estimates
that953
generators
subject
to
subpart
BB
have
implemented
the
alternative
standard
for
valves
specified
in
section
265.1061(
a),
and
one
percent
of
these
generators
will
discontinue
using
the
alternative
standard
each
year.
Therefore,
10
generators
will
be
required
to
prepare
notification
to
discontinue
implementing
the
alternate
valve
standard
specified
in
section
265.1061(
a).

(
c)
Notification
to
implement
the
alternative
valve
standard
specified
in
Section
265.1062(
b)(
2),
or
(
b)(
3).

Based
on
previous
experience,
EPA
estimates
that
five
percent
of
generators
subject
to
subpart
BB
will
decide
to
implement
the
alternative
standard
specified
in
section
265.1062(
b)(
2)
or
(
b)(
3)
each
year.
Therefore,
238
generators
will
be
required
to
prepare
notification
to
implement
the
alternate
valve
standard
specified
in
section
265.1062(
b)(
2)
or
(
b)(
3).

(
d)
Non­
Hazardous
Waste
Documentation
Based
on
previous
experience,
EPA
estimates
that
10
percent
of
generators
with
equipment
subject
to
subpart
BB
will
use
knowledge
to
determine
that
each
piece
of
equipment
does
or
does
not
contain
hazardous
waste
with
organic
concentration
that
equals
or
exceeds
10
percent
waste.
Therefore,
approximately
476
units
will
be
required
to
prepare
non­
hazardous
waste
documentation.

(
e)
Unit
Operating
Record
All
generators
subject
to
subpart
BB
are
required
to
maintain
a
unit
operating
record.
The
contents
of
the
operating
record
will
vary
according
to
site­
specific
circumstances.

SMALL
QUANTITY
GENERATOR
PRE­
TRANSPORT
REQUIREMENTS
(
Exhibit
5)

(
1)
Labeling
This
ICR
assumes
that
all
SQGs
will
need
to
label
their
containers
and
tanks
in
compliance
with
the
section
262.34(
a)(
2)
and
(
3)
and
section
262.34(
c)
requirements.

(
2)
Emergency
Procedures
78
EPA
promulgated
regulations
in
section
262.34
requiring
SQGs
to
immediately
notify
the
local
fire
department
and/
or
National
Response
Center,
as
specified,
for
emergencies.
Based
on
recent
ERNS
data,
EPA
estimates
that
1.7
percent
of
all
SQGs
(
1,825)
will
report
such
an
event
each
year.

(
3)
Requests
for
Extensions
of
the
Accumulation
Period
EPA
promulgated
regulations
in
section
262.34(
f)
allowing
SQGs
to
request
from
the
Regional
Administrator
extensions
(
up
to
30
days)
of
the
accumulation
period
limit.
EPA
estimates
that
one
tenth
of
one
percent
of
all
respondents,
approximately
107
SQGs,
will
request
an
extension
each
year.

RECORDKEEPING
AND
REPORTING
REQUIREMENTS
(
Exhibit
6)

All
generators
(
both
LQGs
and
SQGs)
must
comply
with
the
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements
detailed
in
sections
262.40
and
.43.
This
ICR
does
not
burden
generators
for
their
hazardous
waste
determinations,
since
they
are
already
burdened
for
recordkeeping
of
test
results
in
the
LDR
ICR,
Number
1442.17.
(
Refer
to
the
"
Hazardous
Waste
Determination
Requirements"
in
this
section
for
further
discussion
on
EPA's
assumptions.)
EPA
estimates
that
one
tenth
of
one
percent
of
all
generators,
approximately
128,
will
also
be
required
to
submit
certain
additional
information
(
§
262.43).
Based
on
the
ratio
of
LQGs
to
SQGs,
EPA
estimates
that
approximately
17
are
LQGs
and
107
are
SQGs.

EXPORT
AND
IMPORT
REQUIREMENTS
(
Exhibit
7
and
8)

Based
on
export
notifications
tracked
by
EPA's
Office
of
Enforcement
and
Compliance
Assurance
(
OECA),
EPA
estimates
that
approximately
770
generators
will
export
hazardous
waste
each
year
under
40
CFR
262.53,
and
.55
­
.57,
and
will
be
required
to
notify
EPA
of
their
intention
to
export
hazardous
waste,
file
an
Annual
Report
with
the
Administrator
summarizing
the
types,
quantities,
frequencies,
and
ultimate
destination
of
all
hazardous
wastes
exported
during
the
previous
years,
and
keep
copies
of
relevant
documents
for
a
period
of
three
years.
Because
SQGs
are
not
required
to
submit
waste
volume
and
toxicity
reduction
information
in
their
Annual
Reports,
EPA
accordingly
differentiated
LQG
and
SQG
Annual
Report
burden
hour
estimates
in
Exhibit
7.
EPA
estimates
that
95
percent,
or
731
of
the
770
exporters,
will
be
LQGs
and
five
percent,
or
39
of
the
770
exporters,
will
be
SQGs.

485,136
hours.
This
current
ICR,
Number
0820.09,
estimates
an
annual
respondent
burden
of
455,387
hours,
which
is
a
29,749
hour
decrease
from
ICR
0820.08.
The
pimary
reasons
for
this
change
are
decrease
in
universe
size
and
a
re­
caluculation
of
the
burden
on
international
activities
covered
by
this
ICR.
In
March
of
1004,
a
change
worsksheet
was
file
with
OMB,
reallocating
the
burden
from
ICR
Number
1647.04
to
ICR
number
0820.08.
However,
it
has
been
determined
that
the
burden
of
the
two
are
not
additive,
as
there
was
a
certain
amount
of
double
counting
between
the
two
ICRs.
The
current
analysis
is
a
better
representation
of
the
actual
burden
incurred
by
importers
and
exporters
of
hazardous
waste
covered
by
this
ICR.
