ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 0282.15, OMB Control No. 2060–0048. 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 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: Under the provisions of the Clean Air Act (CAA), the Administrator is required to promulgate regulations to control air pollutant emissions from motor vehicles and nonroad engines, as E:\FR\FM\21JYN1.SGM 21JYN1 erowe on DSKG8SOYB1PROD with NOTICES 42438 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 139 / Wednesday, July 21, 2010 / Notices defined in the CAA. Per Sections 207(c)(1) and 213 of the CAA, when a substantial number of properly maintained and used engines produced by a manufacturer do not conform to emission standards, the manufacturer is required to recall the engines. Engine manufacturers are required to submit Defect Information Reports (DIRs) if emission-related defects are found on engines of the same model year that may cause the engines’ emissions to exceed the standards. EPA uses these reports to target potentially nonconforming classes of engines for future testing, to monitor compliance with applicable regulations and to order a recall, if necessary. Manufacturers can also initiate a recall voluntarily by submitting a Voluntary Emission Recall Report (VERR). VERRs and VERR updates allow EPA to determine whether the manufacturer conducting the recall is acting in accordance with the CAA and to examine and monitor the effectiveness of the recall campaign. Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 354 hours per respondent. 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: Manufacturers of heavy-duty highway and nonroad engines. Estimated Number of Respondents: 75. Frequency of Response: On occasion, quarterly. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 26,563. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $2,293,648, which includes $2,276,608 in labor costs and $17,040 in O&M costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 21,537 hours in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. This increase is due to an VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:19 Jul 20, 2010 Jkt 220001 increase in the estimated number of respondents. Changes in the burden hours per respondent associated with this ICR renewal are negligible, therefore, the increase in burden is due to an adjustment. Dated: July 15, 2010.

    ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 0282.15, OMB Control No. 2060-0048.
    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

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

    Abstract: Under the provisions of the Clean Air Act (CAA), the 
Administrator is required to promulgate regulations to control air 
pollutant emissions from motor vehicles and nonroad engines, as

a manufacturer do not conform to emission standards, the manufacturer 
is required to recall the engines. Engine manufacturers are required to 
submit Defect Information Reports (DIRs) if emission-related defects 
are found on engines of the same model year that may cause the engines' 
emissions to exceed the standards. EPA uses these reports to target

submitting a Voluntary Emission Recall Report (VERR). VERRs and VERR 
updates allow EPA to determine whether the manufacturer conducting the 
recall is acting in accordance with the CAA and to examine and monitor 
the effectiveness of the recall campaign.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 354 
hours per respondent. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial 
resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or

includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire,

personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search 
data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and

    Respondents/Affected Entities: Manufacturers of heavy-duty highway 
and nonroad engines.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 75.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion, quarterly.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 26,563.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $2,293,648, which includes $2,276,608 
in labor costs and $17,040 in O&M costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 21,537 hours in 
the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved ICR Burdens. This increase is due to an increase in the 
estimated number of respondents. Changes in the burden hours per 
respondent associated with this ICR renewal are negligible, therefore, 
the increase in burden is due to an adjustment.
