SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA has
submitted the following ICR to OMB for
review and approval according to the
procedures prescribed in 5 CFR 1320.12.
On April 14, 2005 (70 FR 19757), EPA
sought comments on this ICR pursuant
to 5 CFR 1320.8(d). EPA received no
comments.
EPA has established a public docket
for this ICR under Docket ID No. RCRA–
2005–0006, which is available for public
viewing at the RCRA Docket in the EPA
Docket Center (EPA/DC), EPA West,
Room B102, 1301 Constitution Ave.,
NW., Washington, DC. The EPA Docket
Center Public Reading Room is open
from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday
through Friday, excluding legal
holidays. The telephone number for the
Reading Room is (202) 566–1744, and
the telephone number for the RCRA
Docket is (202) 566–0270. An electronic
version of the public docket is available
through EPA Dockets (EDOCKET) at
https://www.epa.gov/edocket. Use
EDOCKET to submit or view public
comments, access the index listing of
the contents of the public docket, and to
access those documents in the public
docket that are available electronically.
Once in the system, select ‘‘search,’’
then key in the docket ID number
identified above.
Any comments related to this ICR
should be submitted to EPA and OMB
within 30 days of this notice. EPA’s
policy is that public comments, whether
submitted electronically or in paper,
will be made available for public
viewing in EDOCKET as EPA receives
them and without change, unless the
comment contains copyrighted material,
CBI, or other information whose public
disclosure is restricted by statute. When
EPA identifies a comment containing
copyrighted material, EPA will provide
a reference to that material in the
E:\FR\FM\20SEN1.SGM

EDOCKET. The entire printed comment,
including the copyrighted material, will
be available in the public docket.
Although identified as an item in the
official docket, information claimed as
CBI, or whose disclosure is otherwise
restricted by statute, is not included in
the official public docket, and will not
be available for public viewing in
EDOCKET. For further information

Title: Hazardous Remediation Waste
Management Requirements (HWIRMedia) (Renewal).
Abstract: The Resource Conservation
and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA), as
amended, requires EPA to establish a
national regulatory program to ensure
that hazardous wastes are managed in a
manner protective of human health and
the environment. Under this program
(known as the RCRA Subtitle C
program), EPA regulates newly
generated hazardous wastes, as well as
hazardous remediation wastes (i.e.,
hazardous wastes managed during
cleanup). To facilitate prompt and
protective treatment, storage, and
disposal of hazardous remediation
wastes, EPA established three
requirements for remediation waste
management sites that are different from
those for facilities managing newly
generated hazardous waste:
• Performance standards for
remediation waste management sites (40
CFR 264.1(j));
• A provision excluding remediation
waste management sites from
requirements for facility-wide corrective
action; and
• A new form of RCRA permit for
treating, storing, and disposing of
hazardous remediation wastes (40 CFR
part 270, subpart H). The new permit, a
Remedial Action Plan (RAP),
streamlines the permitting process for
remediation waste management sites to
allow cleanups to take place more
quickly.
In addition, EPA created a new kind
of unit called a ‘‘staging pile’’ (40 CFR
264.554) that allows more flexibility in
storing remediation waste during
cleanup. 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 and are
identified on the form and/or
instrument, if applicable.

Burden Statement: For owners/
operators of hazardous remediation
waste management sites subject to the
40 CFR 264.1(j) and part 270, subpart H
requirements, the reporting burden is
estimated to be 27 hours per respondent
per year. The recordkeeping burden is
estimated to be 42 hours per respondent
per year. For owners/operators of
hazardous remediation waste
management sites subject to the 40 CFR
264.554 requirements for staging piles,
the reporting burden is estimated to be
7 hours per year per respondent. The
recordkeeping burden is estimated to be
13 hours per respondent per year.
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.
Respondents/Affected Entities:
Facility owners and operators.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
176.
Frequency of Response: one-time.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
4,944.
Estimated Total Annual Cost:
$361,000, includes $0 annualized
capital/startup costs, $26,000 annual
O&M costs and $335,000 annual labor
costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is a
decrease of only 15 hours in the total
estimated annual hourly burden
currently identified in the OMB
Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens.
The total annual O&M cost burden in
this ICR decreased by $9,000 from the
previous renewal (ICR #1775.03), which
is due to refinements in the burden
estimates. This decrease of $9,000 is
therefore considered an ‘‘adjustment’’.
