Division (RCSD) in developing the
Municipal Solid Waste Characterization
Report to analyze the composition and
amounts of the United State’s Municipal
Solid Waste (MSW), and how these
materials are recycled, combusted, and

this report is a ‘‘top-down’’ materials
flow approach to estimate the size of the
waste stream data. This report may
typically involve one or more of the
following statutes: CAA, CWA, RCRA,
TSCA, FIFRA, EPCRA and the SDWA.
Some of the data collected voluntarily
from industry, may be claimed by
industry to contain trade secrets or CBI.
In accordance with the provisions of 40
CFR part 2, subpart B, ORCR has
established policies and procedures for
handling information collected from
industry, under the authority of RCRA,
including RCRA Confidential Business
Information Security Manuals.
ERG, Incorporated shall protect from
unauthorized disclosure all information
designated as confidential and shall
abide by all RCRA CBI requirements,
including procedures outlined in the
RCRA CBI Security Manual.
The U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency has issued regulations (40 CFR
part 2, subpart B) that outline business
confidentiality provisions for the
Agency and require all EPA Offices that
receive information designated by the
PO 00000
Frm 00018

necessary, EPA Headquarters only.
Contractor personnel at each location
will be required to sign non-disclosure
agreements and will be briefed on
appropriate security procedures before
they are permitted access to confidential
information.

Title: NESHAP for Publicly Owned
Treatment Works (Renewal).
ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number
1891.06, OMB Control Number 2060–
0428.
ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to
expire on August 31, 2012. Under OMB
regulations, the Agency may continue to
conduct or sponsor the collection of
information while this submission is
pending at OMB.
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 VVV.
Owners or operators of the affected
facilities must submit initial
notification, 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 1 hour 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 publicly owned
treatment works.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 6.
Frequency of Response: Initially,
occasionally, annually, and
semiannually.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
14.
Estimated Total Annual Cost: $1,322,
which includes $1,322 in labor costs, no
capital/startup costs, and no operation
and maintenance (O&M) costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is no
change in labor hours in this ICR
PO 00000
Frm 00019
Fmt 4703

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, so
there is no significant change in the
overall burden.
There is an adjustment increase in
costs to both the respondents and the
Agency. This is not due to any program
changes. The increase in cost reflects an
adjustment in labor rates; this ICR uses
updated labor rates to calculate burden
costs for all labor categories.

Title: NESHAP for Publicly Owned Treatment Works (Renewal).
ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1891.06, OMB Control Number 2060-0428.
ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on August 31, 2012.
Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor
the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB.
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
VVV.
Owners or operators of the affected facilities must submit initial
notification, 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 1
hour 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 publicly
owned treatment works.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 6.
Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, annually, and
semiannually.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 14.
Estimated Total Annual Cost: $1,322, which includes $1,322 in labor
costs, no capital/startup costs, and no operation and maintenance (O&M)
costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in labor hours in this
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, so there
is no significant change in the overall burden.
There is an adjustment increase in costs to both the respondents
and the Agency. This is not due to any program changes. The increase in
cost reflects an adjustment in labor rates; this ICR uses updated labor
rates to calculate burden costs for all labor categories.
