ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1869.06, OMB Control Number 2060– 0434. VerDate Mar<15>2010 14:51 May 21, 2010 Jkt 220001 ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on July 31, 2010. 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, and 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: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for the Manufacture of Amino/Phenolic Resins were proposed on December 14, 1998, and promulgated on January 20, 2000. The affected entities are subject to the General Provisions of the NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A, and any changes, or additions to the Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, subpart KKKK. Owners or operators of the affected facilities must submit a onetime-only report of any physical or operational changes, initial performance tests, and periodic reports and results. Owners or operators are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. Reports, at a minimum, are required semiannually. Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 293 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; PO 00000 Frm 00027 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 28803 and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. Respondents/Affected Entities: Amino/phenolic resins manufacturing facilities. Estimated Number of Respondents: 40. Frequency of Response: Initially, occassionally, quarterly, semiannually, and annually. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 24,044. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $2,290,320, which includes $2,274,320 in labor costs, no capital/startup costs, and $16,000 in operation and maintenance (O&M) costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the respondent labor hours in this ICR compared to the previous ICR. This is due to two considerations: (1) The regulations have not changed over the past three years, are not anticipated to change over the next three years; and (2) the growth rate for the respondents is very low, negative or non-existent. Therefore, the labor hours in the previous ICR reflect the current burden to the respondents and are reiterated in this ICR. There is an increase in both respondent and Agency costs resulting from labor rate increases from 2003 to 2009. Dated: May 18, 2010. John Moses, Director, Collection Strategies Division.

The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. Abstract: RadNet is a national network of stations collecting sampling media that include air, precipitation, drinking water, and milk. Samples are sent to EPA’s National Air and Radiation Environmental Laboratory (NAREL) in Montgomery, Alabama, where they are analyzed for radioactivity. RadNet provides emergency response/homeland security and ambient monitoring information on levels of environmental radiation across the nation. All stations, usually operated by State and local personnel, participate in RadNet voluntarily. Station operators complete information forms that accompany the samples. The forms request descriptive information pertaining to sample location, e.g., sample type, sample location, length of sampling period, and volume represented. Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average less than one hour 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.

Respondents/Affected Entities: All fifty States, primarily the State Public Health Departments. Estimated Number of Respondents: 302. Frequency of Response: Frequency varies according to medium being sampled: Milk, quarterly; drinking water, quarterly; rain (precipitation), as events occur; and air, twice weekly. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 8,710. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $480,073 in labor costs and no capital or O&M costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 623 hours in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. This decrease resulted from the installation of new air monitors, which require less time from the station operators. The new equipment was installed as a result of EPA’s decision to upgrade existing air monitoring equipment. Dated: May 18, 2010. John Moses, Director, Collection Strategies Division.
