ICR Numbers: EPA ICR No. 0261.16, OMB Control No. 2050–0028. ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2009. 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: Section 3010 of subtitle C of RCRA, as amended, requires any person who generates or transports regulated waste or who owns or operates a facility for the treatment, storage, or disposal (TSD) of regulated waste to notify EPA of their activities, including the location and general description of activities and the regulated wastes handled. The facility is then issued an EPA Identification number. The facilities are required to use the Notification Form (EPA Form 8700–12) to notify EPA of their hazardous waste activities. EPA needs this information to determine the universe of persons who generate, handle, and manage these regulated wastes; assign EPA Identification Numbers; and ensure that these regulated wastes are managed in a way that protects human health and the environment, as required by RCRA, as amended. EPA enters notification information submitted by respondents into the EPA National data base and assigns EPA Identification Numbers. EPA uses the information primarily for tracking purposes, and secondarily for a variety of enforcement and inspection purposes. In addition, EPA uses this information to identify the universe of regulated waste generators, handlers, and managers and their specific regulated waste activities. Finally, EPA uses this information to ensure that regulated waste is managed properly, that statutory provisions are upheld, VerDate Nov<24>2008 19:07 Jun 26, 2009 Jkt 217001 and that regulations are adhered to by facility owners or operators. This ICR will eventually be merged with the ICR for the Hazardous Waste Report (OMB Control No. 2050–0024), since this form (EPA Form No. 8700–12) is part of the Hazardous Waste Report (EPA Form No. 8700–13 A/B). Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 2 hours per response for the initial notification, and 1 hour per response for any subsequent notifications. 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: Entities potentially affected by this action are business or other for-profit as well as State, Local, or Tribal governments. Estimated Number of Respondents: 55,965. Frequency of Response: On occasion. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 139,656. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $9,081,569, includes $255,830 annualized capital or O&M costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 39,349 hours in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. This increase is due to the inclusion of State burden hours that were not previously counted. Dated: June 16, 2009. John Moses, Director, Collection Strategies Division. [FR Doc.
