    Abstract: In order to effectively implement and enforce final 
changes to 40 CFR Part 258 on a State level, owners/operators of 
municipal solid waste landfills have to comply with the final reporting 
and recordkeeping requirements. Respondents include owners or operators 
of new municipal solid waste landfills (MSWLFs), existing MSWLFs, and 
lateral expansions of existing MSWLFs. The respondents, in complying 
with 40 CFR Part 258, are required to record information in the 
facility operating record, pursuant to Sec.  258.29, as it becomes 
available. The operating record must be supplied to the State as 
requested until the end of the post-closure care period of the MSWLF. 
The information collected will be used by the State Director to confirm 
owner or operator compliance with the regulations under Part 258. These 
owners or operators could include Federal, State, and local 
governments, and private waste management companies. Facilities in 
NAICS codes 9221, 5622, 3252, 3251 and 3253 may be affected by this 
rule.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: State/local/tribal governments, 
private sector.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory. The respondents, in 
complying with 40 CFR Part 258, are required to record information in 
the facility operating record, pursuant to Sec.  258.29, as it becomes 
available.
    Estimated number of respondents: 3,800.
    Frequency of response: Once, On occasion.
    Total estimated burden: 204,808 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated Annual cost: $15,438,308, includes $2,210,853 
annualized capital or O&M costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 60 hours in the 
total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently 
approved by OMB. This decrease is due to an adjustment for current 
estimates of burden hours.
