Title: Hazardous Waste Specific Unit Requirements, and Special Waste Processes and Types (Renewal). ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1572.07, OMB Control No. 2050–0050. ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on November 30, 2007. 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 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, 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: This ICR provides a discussion of all of the information collection requirements associated with specific unit standards applicable to owners and operators of facilities that treat, store, or dispose of hazardous wastes as defined by 40 CFR part 261. It includes a detailed description of the data items and respondent activities associated with each requirement and with each hazardous waste management unit at a facility. The specific units and processes included in this ICR are: Tank systems, Surface impoundments, Waste piles, Land treatment, Landfills, Incinerators, Thermal treatment , Chemical, physical, and biological treatment, Miscellaneous (subpart X), Drip pads, Process vents, Equipment leaks , Containment buildings, Recovery/recycling. With each information collection covered in this ICR, EPA is aiding the goal of complying with its statutory mandate under RCRA to develop standards for hazardous waste treatment, storage, and disposal facilities, to protect human health and the environment. Without the information collection, the agency cannot assure that the facilities are designed and operated properly. Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average as follows: VerDate Aug<31>2005 17:26 Nov 26, 2007 Jkt 214001 Hours per response Unit type Subpart I: Containers ............... Subpart J: Tank Systems ......... Subpart K: Surface Impoundments .................................... Subpart L: Waste Piles ............. Subpart M: Land Treatment .....

Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 42,098 hours in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. This decrease is due to the decrease in the number of respondents, which is based on more accurate, current data. Dated: November 19, 2007. Joseph A.

Abstract: This Information Collection Request (ICR) seeks authorization for tribes to demonstrate their eligibility to be treated in the same manner as states under the Clean Air Act (CAA) and to submit applications to implement a CAA program. This ICR extends the collection period of information for VerDate Aug<31>2005 17:26 Nov 26, 2007 Jkt 214001 determining eligibility, which expires December 31, 2007. The program regulation provides for Indian tribes, if they so choose, to assume responsibility for the development and implementation of CAA programs. The regulation, Indian Tribes: Air Quality Planning and Management (Tribal Authority Rule [TAR] 40 CFR parts 9, 35, 49, 50 and 81), sets forth how tribes may seek authority to implement their own air quality planning and management programs. The rule establishes: (1) Which CAA provisions Indian tribes may seek authority to implement, (2) what requirements the tribes must meet when seeking such authorization, and (3) what Federal financial assistance may be available to help tribes establish and manage their air quality programs. The TAR provides tribes the authority to administer air quality programs over all air resources, including non-Indian owned fee lands, within the exterior boundaries of a reservation and other areas over which the tribe can demonstrate jurisdiction. An Indian tribe that takes responsibility for a CAA program would essentially be treated in the same way as a state would be treated for that program.

    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR No. 1676.05, OMB Control No. 2060-0306.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on 12/31/2007. 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 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, 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: This Information Collection Request (ICR) seeks 
authorization for tribes to demonstrate their eligibility to be treated 
in the same manner as states under the Clean Air Act (CAA) and to 
submit applications to implement a CAA program. This ICR extends the 
collection period of information for determining eligibility, which 
expires December 31, 2007.
    The program regulation provides for Indian tribes, if they so 
choose, to assume responsibility for the development and implementation 
of CAA programs. The regulation, Indian Tribes: Air Quality Planning 
and Management (Tribal Authority Rule [TAR] 40 CFR parts 9, 35, 49, 50 
and 81), sets forth how tribes may seek authority to implement their 
own air quality planning and management programs. The rule establishes: 
(1) Which CAA provisions Indian tribes may seek authority to implement, 
(2) what requirements the tribes must meet when seeking such 
authorization, and (3) what Federal financial assistance may be 
available to help tribes establish and manage their air quality 
programs. The TAR provides tribes the authority to administer air 
quality programs over all air resources, including non-Indian owned fee 
lands, within the exterior boundaries of a reservation and other areas 
over which the tribe can demonstrate jurisdiction. An Indian tribe that 
takes responsibility for a CAA program would essentially be treated in 
the same way as a state would be treated for that program.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 40 
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: Indian tribes.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 27.
    Frequency of Response: One-time application.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 360.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $18,838.20, includes $0 annualized 
capital or O&M costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in hours in the total 
estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved 
ICR Burdens.
