Gulf of Mexico Program Management Committee Meeting, 44845 [E7-15605]

Download as PDF mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 153 / Thursday, August 9, 2007 / Notices tools used by the Agency to estimate emissions from nonroad equipment. Data to be collected include usage rates (activity) and ‘‘in-use’’ or ‘‘real-world’’ emission rates. The collection is a survey, to be conducted by the Office of Transportation and Air Quality (OTAQ) in the Office of Air and Radiation (OAR). Development of rapid in-use instrumentation promises to substantially reduce the cost of emissions measurement for nonroad equipment. This study combines rapid in-use measurement capability with statistical survey design to improve the representation of nonroad engine populations. The goal is to conduct a survey designed to develop methods and protocols needed to collect data on activity and in-use emissions of diesel nonroad equipment. Response to the survey is voluntary. The target population includes nonroad equipment used by commercial establishments in the construction sector. The study area for this collection will be EPA Region 7. To estimate the prevalence of equipment ownership in the target sectors, establishments will be requested to respond to brief interviews regarding their equipment ownership and use. For a subset of establishments, emissions and usage will be measured using portable on-board electronic instrumentation. Emissions instrumentation will measure carbon dioxide (CO2) and several air pollutants on an instantaneous basis during normal operation over a period of one to three days. Air pollutants to be measured include carbon monoxide (CO), total hydrocarbons (THC), oxides of nitrogen (NOX) and particulate matter (PM). The usage instrument will measure engine on/off over a period of approximately one month. Data will be collected during normal operation at the respondents’ facilities or work sites. Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 0.15 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 which have subsequently changed; train personnel to be able to VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:25 Aug 08, 2007 Jkt 211001 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 submitted for renewal will provide a detailed explanation of the Agency’s estimate, which is briefly summarized here: Estimated Total Number of Potential Respondents: 4,020. Frequency of Response: On occasion. Estimated Total Average Number of Responses for Each Respondent: One. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 580. Estimated Total Annual Costs: $52,000. This includes an estimated burden cost of $52,000 and an estimated cost of $0.0 for capital investment or maintenance and operational costs. 44845 request accommodation of a disability, please contact Gloria Car, preferably at least 10 days prior to the meeting, to give EPA as much time as possible to process your request.
