Board of Scientific Counselors, Particulate Matter and Ozone (Air) Mid-Cycle Subcommittee Meeting-October 2007, 57936-57937 [E7-20064]

Download as PDF rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES 57936 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 196 / Thursday, October 11, 2007 / Notices 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 EPA regional office. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 60, subpart QQQ, as authorized in section 112 and 114(a) of the Clean Air Act. The required information consists of emissions data and other information that have been determined to be private. 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 Number 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 34 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 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: Petroleum refinery wastewater systems. Estimated Number of Respondents: 135. Frequency of Response: Initially, on occasion, quarterly, and semiannually. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 9,237. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $840,360, which includes $0 annualized capital Start Up costs, $17,550 annualized Operating and Maintenance costs (O&M), and $822,810 annualized Labor costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the labor hours in this ICR compared to the previous ICR. This is due to two considerations. First, the regulations have not changed over the past three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three years. Secondly, the growth rate for the VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:09 Oct 10, 2007 Jkt 214001 industry is very low, negative or nonexistent, so there is no significant change in the overall labor hours. There is however, a change in the cost estimate. The previous ICR used a cost figure that was rounded-up ($18,000). This ICR uses the exact cost figure ($17,550) resulting in a small cost decrease. Since there are no changes in the regulatory requirements and there is not significant industry growth, the labor hours in the previous ICR are used in this ICR and there is no change in the labor hours to industry. Dated: October 2, 2007. Sara Hisel-McCoy, Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division. [FR Doc.
