current ICR, we have completed

of the CFR, after appearing in the
Federal Register when approved, are

Abstract: The United States (U.S.)
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
promulgated the Clean Air Interstate
Rule to Reduce Interstate Transport of
Fine Particulate Matter and Ozone,
which includes reporting requirements
and combines these requirements with
existing requirements from the
Consolidated Emissions Reporting Rule
(CERR), the Emission Reporting
Requirements for Ozone State
Implementation Plan (SIP) Revisions
Relating to Statewide Budgets for NOX
Emissions to Reduce Regional Transport
of Ozone (NOX SIP Call) and the Acid
Rain Program under Title IV of the CAA
Amendments of 1990. Each of these
three existing requirements has an
approved ICR in place. This ICR is being
submitted to account for the
incremental burden associated with
CAIR. The ICR details the additions and
changes to reporting requirements
associated with CAIR. These changes
include: (1) Changes to existing
requirements for emission reporting
under the CERR; and (2) the addition of
reporting requirements to support
emissions trading in States using the
CAIR model cap and trade rules.
Burden Statement: The annual public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is
estimated to average 87 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.

Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 173 / Friday, September 5, 2008 / Notices
The ICR provides a detailed
explanation of the Agency’s estimate,
which is only briefly summarized here:
Estimated total number of potential
respondents: 1,190.
Frequency of response: Quarterly.
Estimated total annual burden hours:
404,705 hours.
Estimated total annual costs:
$51,472,083, which included
$26,309,080 in capital and O&M costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is an
increase of 22,012 hours in the total
estimated burden currently identified in
the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR
Burdens. This ICR incorporates the
burden associated with all CAIRaffected sources, including those located
in NOX SIP Call States. The NOX SIP
Call ICR (OMB Control Number 2060–
0445) expires at the end of 2008. As
such, starting in 2009, the burden
associated with the NOX trading
program requirements under the NOX
SIP Call are now covered in this ICR.
Without incorporating those burdens
and costs, the overall labor burden in
this ICR would be less than the estimate
in the prior version of this ICR.

Abstract: Section 4010(c) of the
Resource Conservation and Recovery
Act (RCRA) of 1976 requires that EPA
revise the landfill criteria promulgated
under paragraph (1) of Section 4004(a)
and Section 1008(a)(3). Section 4005(c)
of RCRA, as amended by the Hazardous
Solid Waste Amendments (HSWA) of
1984, requires states to develop and
implement permit programs to ensure
that municipal solid waste landfills
(MSWLFs) and non-municipal, nonhazardous waste disposal units that
receive household hazardous waste or
conditionally exempt small quantity
generator (CESQG) hazardous waste are
in compliance with the revised criteria
for the design and operation of nonmunicipal, non-hazardous waste
disposal units under 40 CFR Part 257,
Subpart B and MSWLFs under 40 CFR
Part 258. (40 CFR Part 257, Subpart B
and 40 CFR Part 258 are henceforth
referred to as the ‘‘revised federal
criteria’’.) Section 4005(c) of RCRA
further mandates the EPA Administrator
to determine the adequacy of state
permit programs to ensure owner and/
or operator compliance with the revised
federal criteria. A state program that is
deemed adequate to ensure compliance
