ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to
expire on July 31, 2011. 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 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 GGGG.
Owners or operators of the affected
facilities must submit a one-time-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 185 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;
and transmit or otherwise disclose the
information.
Respondents/Affected Entities:
Owners or operators of vegetable oil
production facilities.

Estimated Number of Respondents:
101.
Frequency of Response: Initially, onoccasion and annually.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
39,385.
Estimated Total Annual Cost:
$2,512,947, which includes $2,512,947
in labor costs, no capital/startup costs,
and no operation and maintenance
(O&M) costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is no
change in the labor hours or cost in the
ICR compared to the previous ICR. This
is due to two considerations: (1) The
regulations have not changed over the
past three years and are not anticipated
to change over the next three years; and
(2) the growth rate for the industry is
very low, negative or non-existent.
Therefore, the labor hours and cost
figures in the previous ICR reflect the
current burden to the respondents and
are reiterated in this ICR.

Notice of a Regional Project Waiver of
Section 1605 (Buy American) of the
American Recovery and Reinvestment
Act of 2009 (ARRA) to the City of
Columbia, MO
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The EPA is hereby granting a
waiver of the Buy American
requirements of ARRA Section 1605
under the authority of Section 1605(b)
(2) [manufactured goods are not
produced in the United States in
sufficient and reasonably available
quantities and of a satisfactory quality]
to the City of Columbia, MO (‘‘City’’) for
the purchase of several foreign
manufactured components of heating/
ventilation/air conditioning systems
(HVAC Systems) in Columbia, Missouri.
This HVAC system consists of three (3)
heat pumps and the associated packaged
air handlers and one (1) air conditioning
system condensing unit. The system is
manufactured by Trane Commercial
Systems in Monterrey, Mexico. 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. Based
upon critical performance requirements
and project specifications for the HVAC
systems, a list of potential
manufacturers and project schedule
submitted by the City and its consulting
engineer, it has been determined that
there are currently no domestically
manufactured HVAC systems available
to meet the City’s project specifications.
The Regional Administrator is making
this determination based on the review
and recommendations of the Clean
Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF)
staff. The Assistant Administrator of the
Office of Administration and Resources
Management has concurred on this
decision to make an exception to
Section 1605 of ARRA. This action
permits the purchase of the Trane
Commercial Systems foreign
manufactured HVAC systems. The City
of Columbia, MO has provided
sufficient documentation to support
their waiver request.
DATES: Effective Date: June 27, 2011.

Christopher Simmons, Environmental
Engineer, Water Wetlands and
Pesticides Division (WWPD), (913) 551–
7237, U.S. EPA, Region 7, 901 N. Fifth
Street, Kansas City, KS 66101.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with ARRA Section 1605(c),
the EPA hereby provides notice that it
is granting a project waiver of the
requirements of Section 1605 (a) of
Public Law 111–5, Buy American
requirements, to the City of Columbia,
MO (‘‘City’’) for the purchase of nondomestically manufactured Trane
HVAC systems consisting of three (3)
heat pumps and the associated packaged
air handlers and one (1) air conditioning
system condensing unit, to meet the
City’s design and performance
specifications as part of its proposed
Wastewater Treatment Facility Phase 1
Improvement Project in Columbia, MO.
Section 1605 of the ARRA requires
that none of the appropriated funds may
be used for the construction, alteration,
maintenance, or repair of a public
building or a public works project
unless all of the iron, steel, and
manufactured goods used in the project
is produced in the United States, or
unless a waiver is provided to the
recipient by the head of the appropriate
agency, here the EPA. A waiver may be
provided if EPA determines that (1)
Applying these requirements would be
inconsistent with the public interest; (2)
iron, steel, and the relevant
manufactured goods are not produced in
the United States in sufficient and

reasonably available quantities and of a
satisfactory quality; or (3) inclusion of
iron, steel, and the relevant
manufactured goods produced in the
United States will increase the cost of
the overall project by more than 25
percent.
The City of Columbia, MO is
proposing a Wastewater Treatment
Facility (WWTF) Phase 1 Improvement
Project that includes the use of nondomestically manufactured Trane
HVAC systems. The new HVAC systems
to be installed in the WWTF provides
adequate indoor air quality by
conditioning the air in the occupied
space, diluting and removing
contaminants from indoor air while
providing proper pressurization. Project
specifications for a density analyzer
require the following to meet the design
and performance criteria:
(1) Each component of the HVAC
system must be compatible with all
other parts of the system;
(2) Where two (2) or more units of the
same class of equipment are required,
they shall be the product of the same
manufacturer.
The Clean Water State Revolving
Fund (CWSRF) staff has reviewed this
waiver request and has determined that
the supporting documentation provided
by the City of Columbia, MO establishes
both a proper basis to specify a
particular manufactured good, and that
there is no domestic manufactured good
currently available. The information
provided is sufficient to meet the
following criteria listed under Section
1605(b) of the ARRA and in the April
28, 2009 Memorandum: Iron, steel, and
the manufactured goods are not
produced in the United States in
sufficient and reasonably available
quantities and of a satisfactory quality.
The Heating/Ventilation/Air
Conditioning (HVAC) systems are
manufactured non-domestically by the
Trance Commercial Systems located in
Monterrey, Mexico. All supporting
documentation and independent
research and communication with
manufacturers of HVAC systems
conducted by EPA’s national contractor
demonstrate that there are no U.S.
manufacturers able to meet the project
specifications. None of the companies
contacted by EPA’s national contractor
manufacture HVAC systems, which can
meet the specifications, in the United
States.
EPA has also evaluated Columbia,
MO’s waiver request to determine if its
submission is considered late or if it
could be considered timely, as per the
OMB Guidance at 2 CFR 176.120. EPA
will generally regard waiver requests
with respect to components that were
