Download as PDF sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES 39112 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 132 / Tuesday, July 11, 2006 / Notices Program has been provided through annual congressional appropriations for the EPA. To enhance the quality and overall public benefit of the Network, EPA proposes to collect information from the EIEN grantees about how they intend to ensure quality in their projects and the environmental outcomes and outputs from their projects. The proposed Quality Assurance Reporting Form is intended to provide a simple means for grant recipients to describe how quality will be addressed throughout their projects. The Quality Assurance Reporting Form is derived from guidelines provided in the EIEN 2006 grant solicitation notice. As a stipulation of their award, grant recipients are to submit the form within ninety days of grant award. Grantees are currently required to submit semi-annual progress reports as a stipulation of their award. In these reports, grantees outline project goals, activities required to meet these goals, and outputs and outcomes of activities to date. At the request of numerous grantees, we are proposing to offer the Progress Reporting Form as a vehicle for collecting information. This form is easier to complete than an unstructured narrative, it can be used as the semiannual and final report form and the information returned will be of higher quality and comparable. Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 1.5 hours for the Semi-Annual Report Form per response and 1 hour per Quality Assurance Form 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 that have subsequently changed; 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: State, Tribal, and Territorial Environmental Offices receiving EIEN grants. Estimated Number of Respondents: 225. VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:49 Jul 10, 2006 Jkt 208001 Frequency of Response: Twice for the Semi-Annual Report Form; Once for the Quality Assurance Form. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 733. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $37,000 includes $0 annualized capital or O&M costs and $37,000 annual labor costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 283 hours in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. This change is due to an increase in the estimate to complete the Semi-annual Progress Report Form and due to the addition of the Quality Assurance Form. Dated: June 29, 2006.

Title: Federal Emission Guidelines for Large Municipal Waste Combustors E:\FR\FM\11JYN1.SGM 11JYN1 sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 132 / Tuesday, July 11, 2006 / Notices Constructed on or Before September 20, 1994. ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1847.04, OMB Control Number 2060– 0390. ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on August 30, 2006. Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. An Agency may not conduct, or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a request for collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA’s regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the Federal Register when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, and displayed either by publication in the Federal Register or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. Abstract: The Emission Guidelines apply to all municipal waste combustion (MWC) units with a combustion capacity greater than 250 tons per day of municipal solid waste (large MWC units), if construction of the unit commenced on, or before September 20, 1994, and the unit is not covered by an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)-approved and currently effective state or tribal plan. The Emission Guidelines require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports. Owners, or operators also are 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. Owners, or operators subject to these regulations are required maintain records of measurements and reports for at least five years. Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 1,701 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 VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:49 Jul 10, 2006 Jkt 208001 requirements which have subsequently changed; 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: Large Municipal Waste Combustors. Estimated Number of Respondents: 9. Frequency of Response: Initially, semiannually, annually, and on occasion. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 38,417. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $384,000, includes $384,000 annualized O&M costs and $0 capital costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 650 hours in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. The decrease in burden from the most recently approved ICR is due to an adjustment. In the previous ICR, the number of MWCs (i.e., sources) was reported rather than the number of respondents. The costs associated with O&M also decreased slightly due to the decrease in the number of respondents. Dated: June 29, 2006. Richard T. Westlund, Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division.

Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor 
the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. 
An Agency may not conduct, or sponsor, and a person is not required to 
respond to, a request for collection of information unless it displays 
a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's 
regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the Federal

    The Emission Guidelines require initial notifications, performance

occasion.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 38,417.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $384,000, includes $384,000 annualized

    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 650 hours in the 
total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved ICR Burdens. The decrease in burden from the most recently 
approved ICR is due to an adjustment. In the previous ICR, the number 
of MWCs (i.e., sources) was reported rather than the number of 
respondents. The costs associated with O&M also decreased slightly due 
to the decrease in the number of respondents.
