Affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are Business or other for profit. Title: Used Oil Management Standards Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements. Abstract: The Used Oil Management Standards, which include information collection requests, were developed in accordance with section 3014 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), as amended by the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984 (HSWA), which directs EPA to ‘‘promulgate regulations * * * as may be necessary to protect public health and the environment from the hazards associated with recycled oil’’ and, at the same time, to not discourage used oil recycling. In 1985 and 1992, EPA established mandatory PO 00000 Frm 00037 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 regulations that govern the management of used oil (see 40 CFR part 279). To document and ensure proper handling of used oil, these regulations establish notification, testing, tracking and recordkeeping requirements for used oil transporters, processors, re-refiners, marketers, and burners. They also set standards for the prevention and cleanup of releases to the environment during storage and transit, and for the safe closure of storage units and processing and re-refining facilities to mitigate future releases and damages. EPA believes these requirements minimize potential hazards to human health and the environment from the potential mismanagement of used oil by used oil handlers, while providing for the safe recycling of used oil. Information from these information collection requirements is used to ensure compliance with the Used Oil Management Standards. 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 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 annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to range from 6 minutes to 23 hours per response. 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 E:\FR\FM\21JYN1.SGM 21JYN1 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 139 / Thursday, July 21, 2005 / Notices 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. Estimated Number of Respondents: 1,640. Frequency of Response: Biannually. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 460,286 hours. Estimated Total Annualized Capital, O&M Cost Burden: $10,011,000. 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.

For further information about the electronic docket, see EPA’s Federal Register notice describing the electronic docket at 67 FR 38102 (May 31, 2002), or go to https://www.epa.gov./ edocket. Affected entities: EPA assumes that industrial waste units that previously co-disposed non-hazardous wastes and conditionally exempt small quantity generator (CESQG) hazardous waste onsite have ceased that practice and that commercial off-site industrial waste units are operating with stringent environmental controls in place. Therefore, entities that potentially will be affected by this action are limited to those that dispose of CESQG hazardous wastes in construction and demolition (C&D) waste landfills. Title: Criteria for Classification of Solid Waste Disposal Facilities and Practices, Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements—40 CFR part 257, subpart B, EPA ICR Number 1745.05, OMB Control Number 2050–0154. Abstract: In order to effectively implement and enforce final changes to 40 CFR part 257—subpart B on a State level, owners/operators of construction and demolition waste landfills that receive CESQG hazardous wastes will have to comply with the final reporting and recordkeeping requirements. 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 number for EPA’s regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15. This continuing ICR documents the recordkeeping and reporting burdens associated with the location and ground-water monitoring provisions contained in 40 CFR part 257—subpart B. 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; E:\FR\FM\21JYN1.SGM 21JYN1

    Title: Used Oil Management Standards Recordkeeping and Reporting 
Requirements.
    Abstract: The Used Oil Management Standards, which include 
information collection requests, were developed in accordance with 
section 3014 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), as 
amended by the Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments of 1984 (HSWA), 
which directs EPA to ``promulgate regulations * * * as may be necessary 
to protect public health and the environment from the hazards 
associated with recycled oil'' and, at the same time, to not discourage 
used oil recycling. In 1985 and 1992, EPA established mandatory 
regulations that govern the management of used oil (see 40 CFR part 
279). To document and ensure proper handling of used oil, these 
regulations establish notification, testing, tracking and recordkeeping 
requirements for used oil transporters, processors, re-refiners, 
marketers, and burners. They also set standards for the prevention and 
cleanup of releases to the environment during storage and transit, and 
for the safe closure of storage units and processing and re-refining 
facilities to mitigate future releases and damages. EPA believes these 
requirements minimize potential hazards to human health and the 
environment from the potential mismanagement of used oil by used oil 
handlers, while providing for the safe recycling of used oil. 
Information from these information collection requirements is used to 
ensure compliance with the Used Oil Management Standards.
    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 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 annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to range from 6 
minutes to 23 hours per response. 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,
