(OMB) a request to review and approve

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose
This information collection complies
with Section 6002 of the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA)
(42 U.S.C. 6962). RCRA requires the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
to designate items which are or can be
produced with recovered materials.
RCRA further requires agencies to
develop affirmative procurement
programs to ensure that items composed
of recovered materials will be purchased
to the maximum extent practicable.
Affirmative procurement programs
required under RCRA must contain, as
a minimum: (1) a recovered materials
preference program and an agency
promotion program for the preference
program; (2) a program for requiring
estimates of the total percentage of
recovered materials used in the
performance of a contract, certification
of minimum recovered material content
actually used, where appropriate, and
reasonable verification procedures for
estimates and certifications; and (3)
annual review and monitoring of the
effectiveness of an agency’s affirmative
procurement program.
The items for which EPA has
designated minimum recovered material
content standards are grouped into eight
categories: (1) construction products, (2)
VerDate Aug<31>2005
20:08 Dec 19, 2007
Jkt 214001
landscaping products, (3) nonpaper
office products, (4) paper and paper
products, (5) park and recreation
products, (6) transportation products,
(7) vehicular products, and (8)
miscellaneous products. The FAR rule
also permits agencies to obtain preaward information from offerors
regarding the content of items which the
agency has designated as requiring
minimum percentages of recovered
materials. There are presently no known
agency designated items.
In accordance with RCRA, the
information collection applies to
acquisitions requiring minimum
percentages of recovered materials,
when the price of the item exceeds
$10,000 or when the aggregate amount
paid for the item or functionally
equivalent items in the preceding fiscal
year was $10,000 or more.
Contracting officers use the
information to verify offeror/contractor
compliance with solicitation and
contract requirements regarding the use
of recovered materials. Additionally,
agencies use the information in the
annual review and monitoring of the
effectiveness of the affirmative
procurement programs required by
RCRA.

Jewish Home and Hospital Life Care
System, Bronx Division; Notice of SelfCertification of Qualifying Status of a

Take notice that on November 21,
2007, Jewish Home and Hospital Life
Care System, Bronx Division, 2545
University Ave., Bronx, NY 10468, filed
with the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission a notice of self-certification
of a facility as a qualifying cogeneration
facility pursuant to 18 CFR 292.207(a) of
the Commission’s regulations.
The facility will be a 300 kW facility
comprised of three 100 kW Tecogen
cogeneration units (topping) located in
the mechanical room of Greenwall
Pavilion at 2545 University Ave., Bronx,
New York. The energy source will be
natural gas.
The facility will interconnect with
Con Edison for stand-by service but will
not export power to the grid.
A notice of self-certification does not
institute a proceeding regarding
qualifying facility status; a notice of selfcertification provides notice that the
entity making filing has determined the
Facility meets the applicable criteria to
be a qualifying facility. Any person
seeking to challenge such qualifying
facility status may do so by filing a
motion pursuant to 18 CFR 292.207(d)
(1)(iii), with the appropriate filing fee.1
