EPA will disclose information that is covered by a CBI claim only to the extent permitted by, and in accordance with, the procedures in 40 CFR part 2. Burden Statement: The annual public burden for this collection of information is estimated to be about 1.18 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; 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 companies that export from the United States to foreign countries, or that engage in wholesale sales of, chemical substances or mixtures. Frequency of Collection: Annual, on occasion. Estimated Average Number of Responses for Each Respondent: 1. Estimated No. of Annual Responses: 4,100. Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 4,850 hours. Estimated Total Annual Burden Costs: $264,255. Changes in Burden Estimates: There is a decrease of 2,700 hours (from 7,550 hours to 4,850 hours) in the total estimated respondent burden compared with that identified in the information collection last approved by OMB. This decrease represents the net effect of a decrease in the estimated number of notices sent to EPA and a decrease in the number of firms sending notices, based on EPA’s recent experience with TSCA section 12(b) notices.
