Title: Responsible Appliance Disposal
Program.
ICR Numbers: EPA ICR No. 2254.01,
OMB Control No. 2060–NEW.
ICR Status: This ICR is for a new
information collection activity. 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 title 40 of the CFR,
after appearing in the Federal Register
when approved, are listed in 40 CFR
part 9, and are 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 Paperwork Reduction
Act requires the information found in
this Information Collection Request, to
assess the burden (in hours and dollars)
of the reporting and record keeping
necessary to maintain the Responsible
Appliance Disposal (RAD) Program. The
RAD Program, developed in 2006, is a
voluntary, non-regulatory program that
promotes the proper handling of
refrigerated household appliances at the
time of their disposal. EPA is partnering
with utilities, municipalities, retailers,
manufacturers, and universities to
promote the proper disposal of older
household appliances, namely
refrigerators, freezers, window air
conditioning units, and dehumidifiers,
in order to prevent emissions of
refrigerants and foam-blowing agents
that are ozone depleting substances and/
or greenhouse gases. The Program is
also expected to save landfill space,
save energy used by older appliances,
lead to the recovery of valuable
materials for use in making new
products (e.g., metals, plastics, glass),
and prevent the release of hazardous
substances—including PCBs, mercury,
and used oil.
Utilities, municipalities, retailers,
manufacturers, and universities can
participate in the program for guidance
on proper appliance disposal practices
and recognition of their efforts.
Participation in the program begins with
completion of a Partnership Agreement
VerDate Aug<31>2005
21:48 Nov 15, 2007
Jkt 214001
that outlines responsibilities of the RAD
Program. This Partnership Agreement
reflects a voluntary agreement between
a utility, municipality, retailer,
manufacturer, or university and EPA. By
joining the program, a Partner agrees to
complete an annual reporting form
identifying the appliances handled and
the fates of their components. If the
reporting form is completed
electronically, it provides feedback for
the user on the gross impact of their
program on the environment, energy
savings, and consumer savings. This
agreement can be terminated by either
Party 20 days after the receipt of written
notice by the other Party with no
penalties or continuing obligations.
Burden Statement: The annual public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is
estimated to average 6 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:
Utilities, municipalities, retailers,
manufacturers, and universities.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
50.
Frequency of Response: Annual.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
302 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Cost: $26,283
in labor costs and no annualized capital
or O&M costs.
Dated: November 8, 2007.
