codes), based on a review of the pool of
past award nominees: Public
administration (92); chemical
manufacturing (325); professional,
scientific and technical services (541);
voluntary health organizations (813212);
environment, conservation and wildlife
organizations (813312); business
associations (813910); professional
organizations (813920). This list is
intended to be illustrative; entities from
other industries may elect to apply to
the U.S. EPA Montreal Protocol Awards
program, or nominate potential
awardees.
Estimated total number of potential
respondents, annually: 25.
Frequency of response: Annual.
Estimated total average number of
responses for each respondent: 1.
Estimated total annual burden hours:
62.5. This burden estimate includes
time required to read the nomination
instructions; provide contact
information for the nominee/nominator;
contact references to obtain their
consent to include their names and
contact information on the nomination
form; write a summary of
accomplishments in no more than 600
words; create supporting materials (this

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
