collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated electronic,
mechanical or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses. In
particular, EPA is requesting comments
from very small businesses (those that
employ less than 25) on examples of
specific additional efforts that EPA
could make to reduce the paperwork
burden for very small businesses
affected by this collection.

To What Information Collection
Activity or ICR Does This Apply?
Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–OAR–2003–
0120.
Affected Entities: Entities potentially
affected by this action as respondents
are manufacturers and importers of
automobile refinish coatings and coating
components. Manufacturers of
automobile refinish coatings and coating
components fall within standard
industrial classification (SIC) 2851,
‘‘Paints, Varnishes, Lacquers, Enamels,
and Allied Products’’ and North
American Industry Classification
System (NAICS) code 325510, ‘‘Paint
and Coating Manufacturing.’’ Importers
of automobile refinish coatings and
coating components fall within SIC
5198, ‘‘Wholesale Trade: Paints,
Varnishes, and Supplies,’’ NAICS code
422950, ‘‘Paint, Varnish and Supplies
Wholesalers,’’ and NAICS code 444120,
‘‘Paint and Wallpaper Stores.’’
Title: Reporting and Recordkeeping
Requirements for National Volatile
Organic Compound Emission Standards
for Automobile Refinish Coatings (40
CFR part 59).
ICR number: EPA ICR Number
1765.07, Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) Control Number 2060–
0353.
ICR status: This ICR is currently
scheduled to expire on June 30, 2010.
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. Under OMB regulations, the

jlentini on DSKJ8SOYB1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 55 / Tuesday, March 23, 2010 / Notices
Agency may continue to conduct or
sponsor the collection of information
while this submission is pending at
OMB.
Abstract: The EPA is required under
section 183(e) of the Clean Air Act to
regulate volatile organic compound
emissions from the use of consumer and
commercial products. Pursuant to
section 183(e)(3), the EPA published a
list of consumer and commercial
products and a schedule for their
regulation (60 FR 15264). Automobile
refinish coatings were included on the
list, and the standards for such coatings
are codified at 40 CFR part 59, subpart
B. The reports required under the
standards enable EPA to identify all
coating and coating component
manufacturers and importers in the
United States and to determine which
coatings and coating components are
subject to the standards, based on dates
of manufacture.
EPA provided notice and sought
comments on the previous ICR renewal
on July 8, 2003 (68 FR 40654) and
January 25, 2007 (72 FR 3387) pursuant
to 5 CFR 1320.8(d). The EPA received
no comments to that notice.
Burden Statement: The annual public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is
estimated to average four 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.
The ICR provides a detailed
explanation of the Agency’s estimate,
which is only briefly summarized here:
Estimated total number of potential
respondents: 4.
Frequency of response: On occasion.
Estimated total average number of
responses for each respondent: One or
less per year.
Estimated total annual burden hours:
14.
Estimated total annual costs: $940.
This includes an estimated burden cost
of $0 and an estimated cost of $0 for
VerDate Nov<24>2008
16:31 Mar 22, 2010
Jkt 220001
capital investment or maintenance and
operational costs.
Are There Changes in the Estimates
From the Last Approval?
There are no changes being made to
the estimates in this ICR from what EPA
estimated in the earlier renewal (2007)
of this ICR.
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 FURTHER INFORMATION

the Federal Maritime Commission
(‘‘FMC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’) is charged
with regulating the common carriage of

Title: Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements for National
Volatile Organic Compound Emission Standards for Automobile Refinish
Coatings (40 CFR part 59).
ICR number: EPA ICR Number 1765.07, Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) Control Number 2060-0353.
ICR status: This ICR is currently scheduled to expire on June 30,
2010. 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. Under OMB regulations,
the
[[Page 13761]]
Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the collection of information
while this submission is pending at OMB.
Abstract: The EPA is required under section 183(e) of the Clean Air
Act to regulate volatile organic compound emissions from the use of
consumer and commercial products. Pursuant to section 183(e)(3), the
EPA published a list of consumer and commercial products and a schedule
for their regulation (60 FR 15264). Automobile refinish coatings were
included on the list, and the standards for such coatings are codified
at 40 CFR part 59, subpart B. The reports required under the standards
enable EPA to identify all coating and coating component manufacturers
and importers in the United States and to determine which coatings and
coating components are subject to the standards, based on dates of
manufacture.
EPA provided notice and sought comments on the previous ICR renewal
on July 8, 2003 (68 FR 40654) and January 25, 2007 (72 FR 3387)
pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.8(d). The EPA received no comments to that
notice.
Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average four
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.
The ICR provides a detailed explanation of the Agency's estimate,
which is only briefly summarized here:
Estimated total number of potential respondents: 4.
Frequency of response: On occasion.
Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent:
One or less per year.
Estimated total annual burden hours: 14.
Estimated total annual costs: $940. This includes an estimated
burden cost of $0 and an estimated cost of $0 for capital investment or
maintenance and operational costs.
Are There Changes in the Estimates From the Last Approval?
There are no changes being made to the estimates in this ICR from
what EPA estimated in the earlier renewal (2007) of this ICR.
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 FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT.
