(iv) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses. In
particular, EPA is requesting comments
from very small businesses (those that
employ less than 25) on examples of
specific additional efforts that EPA
could make to reduce the paperwork
burden for very small businesses
affected by this collection.
What Should I Consider When I
Prepare My Comments for EPA?
You may find the following
suggestions helpful for preparing your
comments:
1. Explain your views as clearly as
possible and provide specific examples.
2. Describe any assumptions that you
used.
3. Provide copies of any technical
information and/or data you used that
support your views.
4. If you estimate potential burden or
costs, explain how you arrived at the
estimate that you provide.
5. Offer alternative ways to improve
the collection activity.
6. Make sure to submit your
comments by the deadline identified
under DATES.
7. To ensure proper receipt by EPA,
be sure to identify the docket ID number
assigned to this action in the subject
line on the first page of your response.
You may also provide the name, date,
and Federal Register citation.
What Information Collection Activity or
ICR Does This Apply to?
Affected entities: Entities potentially
affected by this action are S/L/Ts
participating in this voluntary program.
These government establishments are
classified as Air and Water Resource
and Solid Waste Management Programs
under Standard Industrial Classification
(SIC) code 9511 and North American
Industry Classification System (NAICS)

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1643.06,
OMB Control No. 2060–0264.
cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
ICR status: This ICR is currently
scheduled to expire on September 30,
2007. 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
VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:18 Apr 26, 2007 Jkt 211001
control number. The OMB control
numbers for EPA’s regulations in title 40
of the CFR, after appearing in the
Federal Register when approved, are
listed in 40 CFR part 9, are displayed
either by publication in the Federal
Register or by other appropriate means,
such as on the related collection
instrument or form, if applicable. The
display of OMB control numbers in
certain EPA regulations is consolidated
in 40 CFR part 9.
Abstract: This information collection
is an application from State, territorial,
local, or tribal agencies (S/L/Ts) for
delegation of regulations developed
under section 112 of the Clean Air Act
(Act). The five options for delegation are
straight delegation, rule adjustment, rule
substitution, equivalency by permit, or
state program approval. The information
is needed and used to determine if the
entity submitting an application has met
the criteria established in the subpart E
rule, codified as 40 CFR part 63, subpart
E, in accordance with section 112(l) of
the Act. This information is necessary
and required for the Administrator to
determine the acceptability of approving
the S/L/T’s rules, requirements or
programs in lieu of the Federal section
112 rules or programs. Additionally, it
is also necessary for the proper
performance of our function, and will be
used to ensure that the subpart E
approval criteria have been met. The
collection of information is authorized
under 42 U.S.C. 7401–7671q.
Burden Statement: The annual public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is
estimated to average 341 hours per S/L/
T and 41 hours per application. Burden
means the total time, effort, or financial
resources expended by persons to
generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or
provide information to or for a Federal
agency. This includes the time needed
to review instructions; develop, acquire,
install, and utilize technology and
systems for the purposes of collecting,
validating, and verifying information,
processing and maintaining
information, and disclosing and
providing information; adjust the
existing ways to comply with any
previously applicable instructions and
requirements which have subsequently
changed; train personnel to be able to
respond to a collection of information;
search data sources; complete and
review the collection of information;
and transmit or otherwise disclose the
information.
The ICR provides a detailed
explanation of the Agency’s estimate,
which is only briefly summarized here:
• Estimated total number of potential
respondents: 124 S/L/Ts
PO 00000 Frm 00022 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\27APN1.SGM
• Frequency of response: One time
per delegation request
• Estimated total average number of
responses for each respondent: 8
• Estimated total annual burden
hours: 41,577
• Estimated total annual respondent
costs: $1,816,490. This includes an
estimated labor burden cost of
$1,790,760 and operation and
maintenance costs result from
photocopying and postage expenses,
which are a total of $25,720.
Are There Changes in the Estimates
From the Last Approval?
We are in the process of reviewing the
key assumptions in the ICR that affect
the overall burden estimation. These
include, the number of delegation
activities expected to occur during the
upcoming clearance period, the
delegation options most likely to be
used by the delegated S/L/Ts, and the
burden associated with each of the
options. Depending on the outcome of
this review, there could be changes in
the overall burden estimates.
What Is the Next Step in the Process for
This ICR?
EPA will consider the comments
received and amend the ICR as
appropriate. The final ICR package will
then be submitted to OMB for review
and approval pursuant to 5 CFR
1320.12. At that time, EPA will issue
another Federal Register notice
pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to
announce the submission of the ICR to
OMB and the opportunity to submit
additional comments to OMB. If you
have any questions about this ICR or the
approval process, please contact the
technical person listed under FOR
