Abstract: This information collection request pertains to trade secrecy claims submitted under Section 322 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986 (EPCRA). EPCRA contains provisions requiring facilities to report to State and local authorities, and EPA, the presence of extremely hazardous substances (Section 302), inventory of hazardous chemicals (Sections 311 and 312) and manufacture, process and use of toxic chemicals (Section 313). Section 322 of EPCRA allows a facility to withhold the specific chemical identity from these EPCRA reports if the facility asserts a claim of trade secrecy for that chemical identity. The provisions in Section 322 establish the requirements and procedures that facilities must follow to request trade secrecy treatment of chemical identities, as well as the procedures for submitting public petitions to the Agency for review of the ‘‘sufficiency’’ of trade secrecy claims. Trade secrecy protection is provided for specific chemical identities contained in reports submitted under each of the following: (1) Section 303 (d)(2)—Facility notification of changes that have or are about to occur, (2) Section 303 (d)(3)—Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) requests for facility information to develop or implement emergency plans, (3) Section 311—Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) submitted by facilities, or lists VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:15 Oct 09, 2012 Jkt 229001 of those chemicals submitted in place of the MSDSs, (4) Section 312—Emergency and hazardous chemical inventory forms (Tier I and Tier II), and (5) Section 313 Toxic chemical release inventory form. Form Numbers: EPA Form 9510–1, Substantiation to Accompany Claims of Trade Secrecy under the Emergency Planning and Community Right-toKnow Act of 1986. Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are manufacturers or non-manufacturers subject to reporting under Sections 303, 311/312 or 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-toKnow Act (EPCRA). Respondent’s obligation to respond: Voluntary. Estimated number of respondents: 332. Frequency of response: Annual. Total estimated burden: 3154 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b) Total estimated cost: $206,155 (per year). No capital and operation and maintenance costs are associated with any requirements in this ICR. Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 48 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This increase is due to the slight increase in the number of facilities that EPA estimates for the next three years covered by this ICR. The annual number of claims estimated in the previous ICR was 327, while this ICR estimates 332 claims. John Moses, Director, Collection Strategies Division.
