Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 54 / Tuesday, March 22, 2005 / Notices
administer the water quality
standards program (40 CFR 131.8).
—Information a State or Tribe must
submit if it chooses to exercise a
dispute resolution mechanism for
disputes between States and Tribes
over water quality standards on
common water bodies (40 CFR 131.7).
—Information related to public
participation requirements during
State and Tribal review and revision
of water quality standards (40 CFR
131.20). States and Tribes must hold
public hearings as part of their
triennial reviews, and make any
proposed standards and supporting
analyses available to the public before
the hearing.
The Regulation establishes specific
additional requirements for water
quality standards and their
implementation in the waters of the
Great Lakes system, contained in the
Water Quality Guidance for the Great
Lakes System (40 CFR part 132). This
portion of the Regulation includes the
following requirements for information
collection: bioassay tests to support the
development of water quality criteria;
studies to identify and provide
information on antidegradation control
measures that will guard against the
reduction of water quality in the Great
Lakes system; and information
collection and record keeping activities
associated with analyses and reporting
to request regulatory relief from
Guidance requirements. The Guidance
includes additional information
collections that are addressed in
separate Information Collection
Requests for the National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System program.
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. The OMB control
numbers for EPA’s regulations in 40
CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9.
The EPA would like to solicit
comments to:
(i) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the Agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(ii) Evaluate the accuracy of the
Agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(iii) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(iv) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who

Jkt 205001
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.
Burden Statement: The public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is
estimated to average 856 hours per
response annually. 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; 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Act
affords EPA a 45-day period to review,
and object to as appropriate, operating
permits proposed by state permitting
authorities. Section 505(b)(2) of the Act
authorizes any person to petition the
EPA Administrator within 60 days after
the expiration of this review period to
object to state operating permits if EPA
has not done so. Petitions must be based
only on objections to the permit that
were raised with reasonable specificity
during the public comment period
provided by the state, unless the
petitioner demonstrates that it was
impracticable to raise such issues
during the comment period or the
grounds for the issues arose after this
period.
I. Bristol-Myers Squibb
On September 12, 2002, the EPA
received a petition from NYPIRG,
requesting that EPA object to the
issuance of the title V operating permit
for Bristol-Myers Squibb Co., Inc.
(BMS). On February 18, 2005, the
Administrator issued an order partially
granting and partially denying the BMS
petition. The order explains the reasons
behind EPA’s conclusion that the
NYSDEC must: (1) Explain in the
statement of basis the scope of the
Operational Flexibility Plan and the part

70 provisions it implements; re-open the
permit to ensure that conditions 6, 7,
and 8 are consistent with the
requirements of part 70 and NYSDEC’s
approved title V program; and revise the
permit to clarify that changes made at
the BMS facility pursuant to the
Operational Flexibility Plan shall not be
eligible for the permit shield; (2) revise
the ‘‘general permittee obligations’’
section of the permit relative to the
annual compliance certification
requirements; and (3) add appropriate
periodic monitoring in certain permit
conditions. The order also explains
EPA’s reasons for denying NYPIRG’s
remaining claims.
II. Kodak Park
On April 1, 2003, the EPA received a
petition from NYPIRG, requesting that
EPA object to the issuance of the title V
operating permit for the Eastman Kodak
Co., Kodak Park Facility. On February
18, 2005, the Administrator issued an
order partially granting and partially
denying the Kodak Park petition. The
order explains the reasons behind EPA’s
conclusion that the NYSDEC must: (1)
Explain in the statement of basis the
scope of the Operational Flexibility Plan
and the part 70 provisions it
implements; re-open the permit to
ensure that condition 8 is consistent
with the requirements of part 70 and
NYSDEC’s approved title V program;
and revise the permit to clarify that
changes made at the Kodak facility
pursuant to the Operational Flexibility
Plan shall not be eligible for the permit
shield; (2) revise the ‘‘general permittee
obligations’’ section of the permit
relative to the annual compliance
certification requirements; (3) add
appropriate periodic monitoring in
certain permit conditions; and (4) move
the sulfur dioxide provisions of 6
NYCRR 212.4(a) for U–00063 to the
federal/state side of the permit. The
order also explains EPA’s reasons for
denying NYPIRG’s remaining claims.
III. Kodak Power
On April 1, 2003, the EPA received a
petition from NYPIRG, requesting that
EPA object to the issuance of the title V
operating permit for the Eastman Kodak
Co., Kodak Power and Steam Generation
Plant. On February 18, 2005, the
Administrator issued an order partially
granting and partially denying the
Kodak Power petition. The order
explains the reasons behind EPA’s
conclusion that the NYSDEC must
reopen the permit to: (1) Explain in the
statement of basis the scope of the
Operational Flexibility Plan and the part
70 provisions it implements; re-open the
permit to ensure that condition 8 is
