    ICR number: EPA ICR No. 1395.08, OMB Control No. 2050-0092.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on July 31, 2012. Under

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

    Abstract: The authority for these requirements is sections 302, 
303, and 304 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act 
(EPCRA), 1986 (42 U.S.C. 11002, 11003, and 11004). EPCRA established 
broad emergency planning and facility reporting requirements. Section 
302 requires facilities to notify their state emergency response 
commission (SERC) that the facility is subject to emergency planning. 
This activity has been completed; this ICR covers only new facilities 
that are subject to this requirement. Section 303 requires the local 
emergency planning committees (LEPCs) to prepare emergency plans for 
facilities that are subject to section 302. This activity has been also 
completed; this ICR only covers any updates needed for these emergency 
response plans. Section 304 requires facilities to report to SERCs and 
LEPCs releases in excess of the reportable quantities listed for each 
extremely hazardous substance (EHS). This ICR also covers the 
notification and the written follow-up required under this section. The 
implementing regulations and the list of substances for emergency 
planning and emergency release notification are codified in 40 CFR part 
355.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 2.4 
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: Chemical manufacturers, non-chemical 
manufacturers, retailers, petroleum refineries, utilities, etc.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 110,456.
    Frequency of Response: Once, on occasion.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 267,206.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $13,626,107, includes $0 annualized 
capital and $60,327 annualized O&M costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: The number of respondents increased by 
12,000 from the previous ICR. This is due to an increase in the number 
of reports of Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and 
Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA) hazardous substance and Extremely 
Hazardous Substance (EHS) releases reported to the National Response 
Center in 2011. There is a decrease of 28,550 hours from the previous 
ICR due to adjustments for current burden estimates. There is a 
decrease of $8,392 O&M costs which is also due to adjustments to the 
estimates.
