<. Both RCRA Sections
3002 and 3004 require EPA to establish
standards for recordkeeping and
reporting of hazardous waste generation
and management. Section 3002 applies
to hazardous waste generators and
Section 3004 applies to hazardous waste
treatment, storage, and disposal
facilities. The implementing regulations
are found at 40 CFR 262.40(b) and (d);
262.41(a)(1)–(5), (a)(8), and (b);
264.75(a)–(e) and (j); 265.75(a)–(e) and
(j); and 270.30(l)(9). This is mandatory
reporting by the respondents.
This ICR renewal includes several
changes to the RCRA Subtitle C Site
Identification Form (EPA Form 8700–
12) in order to implement two new final
rules: The Revisions to the Definition of
Solid Waste, promulgated on October
30, 2008 (73 FR 64668); and the
Standards Applicable to Generators of
Hazardous Waste; Alternative
Requirements for Hazardous Waste
Determination and Accumulation of
Unwanted Material at Laboratories
Owned by Colleges and Universities and
Other Eligible Academic Entities
Formally Affiliated With Colleges and
Universities, promulgated on December
1, 2008 (73 FR 72912).
Burden Statement: The reporting
burden is estimated to average 16.4
hours per respondent, and includes time
for reviewing instructions, gathering
data, completing and reviewing the
forms, and submitting the report. The
record keeping requirement is estimated
to average 2.3 hours per response and
includes the time for filing and storing
the Biennial Report submission for three
years.
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.

The ICR provides a detailed
explanation of the Agency’s estimate,
which is only briefly summarized here:
Estimated total number of potential
respondents: 13,000.
Frequency of response: Once.
Estimated total average number of
responses for each respondent: 50.
Estimated total annual burden hours:
700,000 hours.
Estimated total annual costs: $70,000
annualized capital or O&M costs.
What Is the Next Step in the Process for
This ICR?
EPA will consider the comments
received and amend the ICR as
appropriate. The final ICR package will
then be submitted to OMB for review
and approval pursuant to 5 CFR
1320.12. At that time, EPA will issue
another Federal Register notice
pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to
announce the submission of the ICR to
OMB and the opportunity to submit
additional comments to OMB. If you
have any questions about this ICR or the
approval process, please contact the
technical person listed under FOR
