Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 239 / Tuesday, December 14, 2010 / Notices 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: Rubber tire manufacturing. Estimated Number of Respondents: 41. Frequency of Response: Initially, annually, and semiannually. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 13,323. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $1,266,476, which includes $1,250,076 in labor costs, no capital/startup costs, and $16,400 in operation and maintenance (O&M) costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is no increase in the number of affected facilities, labor hours, or the number of responses compared to the previous ICR. There is however, an increase in the estimated labor burden cost as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This increase is not due to any program change. The change in the labor burden cost estimates has occurred because we updated the labor rates, which resulted in an increase in labor costs. There is also an increase of $400.00 to the operation and maintenance (O&M) costs. Dated: December 7, 2010.

ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: The Regional Administrator of EPA Region 10 is hereby granting a waiver request from the Buy American requirements of ARRA Section 1605 under the authority of Section SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00049 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 77869 1605(b)(1) [inconsistent with the public interest] to the City for the utilization and installation of one (1) Slide Gate in the influent control structure and two (2) Stop Logs/Guides sets in access manholes as part of an overall Combined Sewage Overflow (CSO) control project. This is a project specific waiver and only applies to the use of the specified product for the ARRA project being proposed. Any other ARRA recipient that wishes to use the same product must apply for a separate waiver based on project specific circumstances. The City had the contractual obligation of the contractor and written verification from the manufacturer that the Slide Gate and Stop Logs/Guides would comply with Buy American requirements and be produced in a U.S. facility. However, the contractor observed that the Slide Gate and Stop Logs/Guides delivered to the site for installation had ‘‘Made in Canada’’ labeling. The contractor confirmed with the manufacturer that goods were actually manufactured in Canada, not in the U.S., and shipped to the project site in error. Due to contractual requirements, the contractor and manufacturer will absorb the costs of the Slide Gate and Stop Logs/Guides. Re-ordering the Slide Gate and Stop Logs/Guides and having them manufactured in a U.S. facility would delay project completion by at least nine to ten weeks. Of significant note, the City has a contractual obligation to the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) to begin project testing and start up by December 1, 2010 in order for the completed project to properly control CSOs and provide water quality protection during the typical wet weather associated with December and January, when CSOs are highest. Based upon information submitted by the City, EPA has concluded that requiring the installation of the domestic manufactured Slide Gate and Stop Logs/Guides, which would extend the project schedule by at least nine to ten weeks, would be inconsistent with the public interest, and that a waiver of the Buy American provisions is justified. The Regional Administrator is making this determination based on the review and recommendations of the Grants and Strategic Planning Unit. The Assistant Administrator of the Office of Administration and Resources Management has concurred on this decision to make an exception to the requirements of Section 1605(a) of ARRA. This action allows the installation of the foreign manufactured Slide Gate and Stop Logs/Guides, as E:\FR\FM\14DEN1.SGM 14DEN1
