Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 227 / Monday, November 28, 2005 / Notices EPA, which maintains original records and transmits copies thereof to appropriate government officials of the countries which are importing the pesticide. Burden Statement: Under the PRA, ‘‘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 this collection it 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. The ICR provides a detailed explanation of this estimate, which is only briefly summarized in this notice. The annual public burden for this ICR is estimated to be 24,700. The following is a summary of the estimates taken from the ICR: Respondents/Affected Entities: All exporters of unregistered pesticides. Estimated Number of Respondents: 2,500. Frequency of Response: Annual or per-shipment. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 24,700. Estimated Total Annual Burden Cost: $2,134,400. Changes in the Estimates: The total annual respondent burden cost for this ICR is estimated to be $2,134,400, an increase of $232,000 over the present ICR. This slight increase in respondent burden cost is due to adjustments in labor rates. Dated: October 3, 2005. Oscar Morales, Director, Collection Strategies Division. [FR Doc.

Title: Information Requirements for Boilers and Industrial Furnaces: General Hazardous Waste Facility Standards, Specific Unit Requirements, and Part B Permit Application and Modification Requirements (Renewal). Abstract: EPA regulates the burning of hazardous waste in boilers, incinerators, E:\FR\FM\28NON1.SGM 28NON1 71290 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 227 / Monday, November 28, 2005 / Notices and industrial furnaces (BIFs) under 40 CFR parts 63, 264, 265, 266 and 270. This ICR describes the paperwork requirements that apply to the owners and operators of BIFs. This includes the requirements under the comparable/ syngas fuel specification at 40 CFR 261.38; the general facility requirements at 40 CFR parts 264 and 265, subparts B thru H; the requirements applicable to BIF units at 40 CFR part 266; and the RCRA Part B permit application and modification requirements at 40 CFR part 270. Examples of paperwork collected under these requirements include one-time notices, certifications, waste analysis data, inspection and monitoring records, plans reports, RCRA Part B permit applications and modifications. The responses to the collection of information are mandatory. EPA needs this information for the proper implementation, compliance tracking, and fulfillment of the congressionally delegated mandate under RCRA to protect public health and the environment. EPA, however, has taken steps to minimize the burden imposed on the facilities, and ensures the confidentiality of the provided information by complying with section 3007(b) of RCRA, Privacy Act of 1974 and OMB Circular #108. Based on information from the EPA Regions, we estimated at last renewal of this ICR that 91 BIF facilities are subject to the RCRA hazardous waste program. Of these, we estimate that 32 BIFs are currently under interim status and the remaining 59 are in permitted status. This renewal takes into account the current universe of the BIF facilities, and the current regulations applicable to them based on the amendments made to date. 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 is estimated to average 2,626 hours per facility. 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 VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:28 Nov 25, 2005 Jkt 208001 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: Business or other for-profit entities. Estimated Number of Respondents: 91. Frequency of Response: Varies (from on-occasion to annually). Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 238,997 hours. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $33,665,000, includes $ 7,855,000 annualized capital/ startup cost, $9,880,000 annual O&M costs and $15,930,000 annual labor costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 68,952 hours in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. This decrease is the result of a program change of 50,188 hours due to the transitioning of burden into another ICR (#1773.08, OMB Control Number 2050–0171) as a result of the newly promulgated MACT rule under the Clean Air Act, and an adjustment of 18,764 hours due to a change in the respondent universe.

    Abstract: EPA regulates the burning of hazardous waste in boilers, 
incinerators,

[[Page 71290]]

and industrial furnaces (BIFs) under 40 CFR parts 63, 264, 265, 266 and 
270. This ICR describes the paperwork requirements that apply to the 
owners and operators of BIFs. This includes the requirements under the 
comparable/syngas fuel specification at 40 CFR 261.38; the general 
facility requirements at 40 CFR parts 264 and 265, subparts B thru H; 
the requirements applicable to BIF units at 40 CFR part 266; and the 
RCRA Part B permit application and modification requirements at 40 CFR 
part 270. Examples of paperwork collected under these requirements 
include one-time notices, certifications, waste analysis data, 
inspection and monitoring records, plans reports, RCRA Part B permit 
applications and modifications. The responses to the collection of 
information are mandatory. EPA needs this information for the proper 
implementation, compliance tracking, and fulfillment of the 
congressionally delegated mandate under RCRA to protect public health 
and the environment. EPA, however, has taken steps to minimize the 
burden imposed on the facilities, and ensures the confidentiality of 
the provided information by complying with section 3007(b) of RCRA, 
Privacy Act of 1974 and OMB Circular 108. Based on information 
from the EPA Regions, we estimated at last renewal of this ICR that 91 
BIF facilities are subject to the RCRA hazardous waste program. Of 
these, we estimate that 32 BIFs are currently under interim status and 
the remaining 59 are in permitted status. This renewal takes into 
account the current universe of the BIF facilities, and the current 
regulations applicable to them based on the amendments made to date.
    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 is estimated to average 2,626 
hours per facility. 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: Business or other for-profit 
entities.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 91.
    Frequency of Response: Varies (from on-occasion to annually).
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 238,997 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $33,665,000, includes $ 7,855,000 
annualized capital/ startup cost, $9,880,000 annual O&M costs and 
$15,930,000 annual labor costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 68,952 hours in 
the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved ICR Burdens. This decrease is the result of a program change 
of 50,188 hours due to the transitioning of burden into another ICR 
(1773.08, OMB Control Number 2050-0171) as a result of the 
newly promulgated MACT rule under the Clean Air Act, and an adjustment 
of 18,764 hours due to a change in the respondent universe.
