Title: State Review Framework
Abstract: The State Review
Framework (‘‘Framework’’) is an
oversight tool designed to assess state
performance in enforcement and
compliance assurance. The Framework’s
goal is to evaluate state performance by
examining existing data to provide a
consistent level of oversight and
develop a uniform mechanism by which
EPA Regions, working collaboratively
with their states, can ensure that state
environmental agencies are consistently
implementing the national compliance
and enforcement program in order to
meet agreed-upon goals. Furthermore,
the Framework is designed to foster
dialogue on enforcement and
compliance performance between the
states that will enhance relationships
and increase feedback, which will in
turn lead to consistent program
management and improved
environmental results. The Framework
is described in the April 26, 2005
Federal Register Notice (79 FR 21408).
This amendment will allow OECA to
collect information to assist in the
evaluation of the State Review
Framework implementation from FY
2005 to the end of FY 2007. This request
will allow EPA to make inquiries to
assess the State Review Framework
process, including the consistency
achieved among the EPA Regions and
states, the resources required to conduct
the reviews, and the overall
effectiveness of the program.
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 the accuracy of the
Agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
PO 00000
Frm 00015
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
32847
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(ii) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(iii) 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 estimated
burden for this Framework is 6 hours
per respondent. The total number of
respondents is 236, producing an
approximate total burden of 1375 hours.
For each respondent, the proposed
frequency of response is one-time in a
three-year cycle. The projected cost
burden to respondents is $47,213,
which includes a total capital and startup component of $0.0, annualized over
its expected useful life, and a total
operation and maintenance component
of $0.0. 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.

I. Summary of Information About the
Integrated Risk Information System
(IRIS)
IRIS is a database that contains
potential adverse human health effects
information that may result from
chronic (or lifetime) exposure to specific
chemical substances found in the
environment. The database (available on
the Internet at https://www.epa.gov/iris)
contains qualitative and quantitative
health effects information for more than
500 chemical substances that may be
used to support the first two steps
(hazard identification and doseresponse evaluation) of a risk
assessment process. When supported by
available data, the database provides
oral reference doses (RfDs) and
inhalation reference concentrations
(RfCs) for chronic health effects, and
oral slope factors and inhalation unit
risks for carcinogenic effects. Combined
with specific exposure information,
government and private entities can use
IRIS data to help characterize public
health risks of chemical substances in a
site-specific situation and thereby
support risk management decisions
designed to protect public health.
II. Workshop Information
Members of the public may attend the
workshop as observers, and there will
be a limited time for oral comments
from the public. Please let ORISE know
if you wish to make comments during
the workshop prior to the meeting by
registering on the web site at https://

Instructions: Direct your comments to Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-ORD-
2007-0351. Please ensure that your comments are submitted within the
specified comment period. Comments received after the closing date will
be marked ``late,'' and may only be considered if time permits. It is
EPA's policy to include all comments it receives in the public docket
without change and to make the comments available online at
www.regulations.gov, including any personal information provided,
unless a comment includes information claimed to be confidential
Business Information (CBI) or other information whose disclosure is
restricted by statute. Do not submit information that you consider to
be CBI or otherwise protected through www.regulations.gov or e-mail.
The www.regulations.gov Web site is an ``anonymous access'' system,
which means EPA will not know your identity or contact information
unless you provide it in the body of your comment. If you send an e-
mail comment directly to EPA without going through www.regulations.gov,
your e-mail address will be automatically captured and included as part
of the comment that is placed in the public docket and made available
on the Internet. If you submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends
that you include your name and other contact information in the body of
your comment and with any disk or CD-ROM you submit. If EPA cannot read
your comment due to technical difficulties and cannot contact you for
clarification, EPA may not be able to consider your comment. Electronic
files should avoid the use of special characters, any form of
encryption, and be free of any defects or viruses. For additional
information about EPA's public docket visit the EPA Docket Center
homepage at https://www.epa.gov/epahome/dockets.htm.
Docket: All documents in the docket are listed in the
www.regulations.gov index. Although listed in the index, some
information is not publicly available, e.g., CBI or other information
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Certain other material, such
as copyrighted material, will be publicly available only in hard copy.
Publicly available docket materials are available either electronically
in www.regulations.gov or in hard copy at the OEI Docket in the EPA
Headquarters Docket Center.
