Title: Population-based Pilot Study of
Children’s Environmental Health in
Support of The National Children’s
Study.
Abstract: The proposed study will be
conducted by the Epidemiology and
Biomarkers Branch, Human Studies
Division, National Health and
Environmental Effects Research
Laboratory, Office of Research and
Development, U.S. EPA. The U.S. EPA
will conduct this research in
partnership with the National
Children’s Study (NCS) Program Office
at the National Institute of Child Health
and Human Development (NICHD) as
well as the other lead agencies of the
NCS: the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC) and the National
Institute of Environmental Health
Sciences (NIEHS). This proposed data
collection will pilot test logistics,
protocols and procedures for the NCS, a
long term study of the influence of
environmental factors on child health

and development. The goal is to
improve the efficiency of the
implementation of NCS by testing
procedures for population-based
sampling and subject recruitment,
proposed study logistics and estimates
of subject burden, and evaluating data
collection strategies including
interviews and acquisition of biologic
and environmental samples. Further
details on the NCS, including the Study
Plan, can be found at https://
www.nationalchildrensstudy.gov.
Approximately 10,000 households
will be screened and 2,740 women will
be enrolled who meet eligibility criteria,
primarily defined by age and likelihood
of pregnancy. The schedule of visits
follows the proposed NCS Study Plan.
Briefly, women who are planning
pregnancy will be visited bimonthly,
women with lower likelihood of
pregnancy will be visited once; pregnant
women will have a home visit in the
first trimester and a clinic visit in the
second and third trimester. A hospital
visit at birth is planned as well as home
visits to follow-up with the mother and
infant at 1, 6, 12, and 18 months of age.
Data from interviews as well as biologic
and environmental samples will address
the relationship between common
environmental factors and the physical
and developmental growth of children.
Qualitative assessments of the
participants’ perceptions about the
study will be gathered at each visit to
enhance the lessons that can be learned
to aid the successful implementation of
the NCS.
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: The annual public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information varies
depending on the eligibility and
pregnancy status of women at the time
of enrollment. Detailed estimates
regarding the number of potential
respondents and burden associated with
each visit are provided in the
EDOCKET. Approximately 10 minutes
per household is required to determine
potentially eligible occupants.
Potentially eligible women are asked to
complete a 10-minute screening
interview. The estimated total burden
for a fully participating woman ranges
from 8 hours (for a woman enrolled at
delivery) to 21 hours (for a ‘‘high
likelihood’’ woman who receives all
contacts in the preconception period)
PO 00000
Frm 00029
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
over a three year period. The burden for
husbands/partners is somewhat more
consistent because they only receive one
visit in each of the preconception,
pregnancy, and childhood visit periods;
each visit is approximately 1 hour. The
burden for children ranges from 10
minutes at the birth visit to
approximately 2 hours for full
participation up to 18 months of age.
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:
Women aged 18–40 years, pregnant
women, their husbands or partners, and
their children who live in selected areas
of North Carolina.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
10,000.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
4,585.
Estimated Total Annual Cost:
$82,728. There are no annualized
capital costs or O&M costs.
Changes in the Estimates: Not
applicable; this is a new information
collection.

Title: NSPS for Petroleum Refineries
(Renewal).
Abstract: This information collection
request addresses Clean Air Act
information collection requirements in
standards published at 40 CFR part 60,
subpart J, which have mandatory
recordkeeping and reporting
requirements. These regulations were
proposed on June 11, 1973, promulgated
on March 8, 1974, and they apply to the
following affected facilities in
petroleum refineries: Fluid catalytic
cracking unit catalyst regenerators, fuel
gas combustion devices, and Claus
sulfur recovery plants of more than 20
long tons per day commencing
construction, modification or
reconstruction after the date of proposal.
In general, all NSPS standards require
initial notifications, performance tests,
and periodic reports by the owners/
operators of the affected facilities. The
frequency of the excess emissions report
was changed from quarterly to
semiannually on February 12, 1999 (64
PO 00000
Frm 00030
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
55129
FR 7465) They are also required to
maintain records of the occurrence and
duration of any startup, shutdown, or
malfunction in the operation of an
affected facility, or any period during
which the monitoring system is
inoperative. These notifications, reports,
and records are essential in determining
compliance, and are required of all
affected facilities subject to NSPS.
Any owner/operator subject to the
provisions of this part shall maintain a
file of these measurements, and retain
the file for at least two years following
the date of such measurements,
maintenance reports, and records. All
reports are sent to the delegated state or
local authority. In the event that there
is no such delegated authority, the
reports are sent directly to the United
States Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) regional office.
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 are listed
in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15,
and are identified on the form and/or
instrument, if applicable.
Burden Statement: The annual public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is
estimated to average 50 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 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:
Owners and operators of petroleum
refineries.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
132.
Frequency of Response:
Semiannually, on occasion.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
14,134 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Costs:
$1,682,453, which includes $0
annualized capital/startup costs,
$541,464 annual O&M costs, and
$1,140,989 in Respondent Labor costs.

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 181 / Tuesday, September 20, 2005 / Notices
Changes in the Estimates: Adjustment
of burden hours added 2,183 hours, but
was more than offset by Program Change
decrease of 5,408 hours, so that the
overall decrease in burden was 3,225
hours per year. This decrease is due to
the removal of quarterly emission
reporting requirements. Only
semiannual emission reporting is
required by the standards. The increase
in O&M cost is due to use of a more
accurate source for this information.

Title: Delisting the Fish Tainting
Beneficial Use Impairment in the
Saginaw River/Bay Area of Concern
Abstract: The 1988 Saginaw River/
Bay RAP cited 12 impairments of the 14
categories specifically listed by the IJC
for the Saginaw River/Bay AOC,
including tainting of fish (i.e., taste and
odor concerns). Chemical odors and
tastes associated with harvested fish
were frequently reported from the 1940s
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
PO 00000
Frm 00031
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
through the 1970s in the Saginaw and
Tittabawassee Rivers, and in the
Saginaw Bay. In the 1994 Remedial
Action Plan Update, the Michigan
Department of Natural Resources
reported that no off-flavor was detected
in taste tests conducted on fish taken
from these waters. Since taste and odor
complaints related to edible fish taken
from both Saginaw River and Bay have
disappeared in recent years, this project
will distribute a voluntary survey to
7,680 local residents and anglers to
determine if taste and odor problems in
fish fillets have abated to the extent that
delisting of the beneficial use
impairment may be recommended for
the Area of Concern (AOC). Results of
the individual survey respondents will
be confidential. 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 4 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 voluntary
survey instrument is expected to take .5
hours to review and complete per
individual response. The targeted
frequency of response is 20 percent, or
1,536 completed surveys. 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

Changes in the Estimates: Adjustment of burden hours added 2,183
hours, but was more than offset by Program Change decrease of 5,408
hours, so that the overall decrease in burden was 3,225 hours per year.
This decrease is due to the removal of quarterly emission reporting
requirements. Only semiannual emission reporting is required by the
standards. The increase in O&M cost is due to use of a more accurate
source for this information.
