EPA will consider the comments received and amend the ICR as appropriate. The final ICR package will then be submitted to OMB for ADDRESSES: PO 00000 Frm 00054 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 review and approval. At that time, EPA will issue another Federal Register notice to announce the submission of the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to submit additional comments to OMB. Abstract: This ICR is the renewal of the ICR developed for the final rule, Accidental Release Prevention Requirements; Risk Management Programs Under the Clean Air Act Section 112(r)(7); Distribution of Off-Site Consequence Analysis Information. CAA section 112(r)(7) required EPA to promulgate reasonable regulations and appropriate guidance to provide for the prevention and detection of accidental releases and for responses to such releases. The regulations include requirements for submittal of a risk management plan (RMP) to EPA. The RMP includes information on offsite consequence analyses (OCA) as well as other elements of the risk management program. On August 5, 1999, the President signed the Chemical Safety Information, Site Security, and Fuels Regulatory Relief Act (CSISSFRRA). The Act required the President to promulgate regulations on the distribution of OCA information (CAA section 112(r)(7)(H)(ii)). The President delegated to EPA and the Department of Justice (DOJ) the responsibility to promulgate regulations to govern the dissemination of OCA information to the public. The final rule was published on August 4, 2000 (65 FR 48108). The regulations imposed minimal requirements on the public, state and local agencies that request OCA data from EPA. The state and local agencies who decide to obtain OCA information must send a written request on their official letterhead to EPA certifying that they are covered persons under Public Law 106–40, and that they will use the information for official use only. EPA will then provide OCA data to those agencies as requested. The rule authorizes and encourages state and local agencies to set up reading rooms. The local reading rooms would provide read-only access to OCA information for all the sources in the LEPC’s jurisdiction and for any source where the vulnerable zone extends into the LEPC’s jurisdiction. Members of the public requesting to view OCA information at federal reading rooms would be required to sign in and self certify. If asking for OCA information from federal reading rooms for the facilities in the area where they live or work, they would be required to provide proof that they live or work in that area. Members of the public are required to give their names, telephone number, and the names of the facilities for which OCA information is being E:\FR\FM\15JAN1.SGM 15JAN1 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 10 / Tuesday, January 15, 2013 / Notices requested, when they contact the central office to schedule an appointment to view OCA information. ICR number: EPA ICR No. 1981.05, OMB Control No. 2050–0172. Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are States, local agencies and members of the public.

Burden is defined in 5 CFR 1320.03(b). Total Estimated Cost: $327,768 per year. Change in Estimates: The burden and costs stated above are from the current approved ICR, 1981.04. EPA may adjust these estimates based on public comments received or other information gained by the Agency prior to submitting the ICR renewal package to OMB. EPA estimates a total of 5,430 hours (annually) for state and local agencies requesting OCA data from EPA and providing read-only access to the public. For the public to display photo identification, sign a sign-in sheet, certify that the individual has not received access to OCA information for more than 10 stationary sources for that calendar month, and to request information from the vulnerable zone indicator system (VZIS), EPA estimates a total of 5,100 hours annually. The total burden for the members of the public, state and local agencies is 10,530 hours and $327,768 annually (31,590 hours and $983,304 for three years). The labor and wage rates would also be adjusted based on the current rates available. Dated: December 28, 2012. Dana Stalcup, Acting Director, Office of Emergency Management.

    Abstract: This ICR is the renewal of the ICR developed for the 
final rule, Accidental Release Prevention Requirements; Risk Management 
Programs Under the Clean Air Act Section 112(r)(7); Distribution of 
Off-Site Consequence Analysis Information. CAA section 112(r)(7) 
required EPA to promulgate reasonable regulations and appropriate 
guidance to provide for the prevention and detection of accidental 
releases and for responses to such releases. The regulations include 
requirements for submittal of a risk management plan (RMP) to EPA. The 
RMP includes information on offsite consequence analyses (OCA) as well 
as other elements of the risk management program.
    On August 5, 1999, the President signed the Chemical Safety 
Information, Site Security, and Fuels Regulatory Relief Act 
(CSISSFRRA). The Act required the President to promulgate regulations 
on the distribution of OCA information (CAA section 112(r)(7)(H)(ii)). 
The President delegated to EPA and the Department of Justice (DOJ) the 
responsibility to promulgate regulations to govern the dissemination of 
OCA information to the public. The final rule was published on August 
4, 2000 (65 FR 48108). The regulations imposed minimal requirements on 
the public, state and local agencies that request OCA data from EPA. 
The state and local agencies who decide to obtain OCA information must 
send a written request on their official letterhead to EPA certifying 
that they are covered persons under Public Law 106-40, and that they 
will use the information for official use only. EPA will then provide 
OCA data to those agencies as requested. The rule authorizes and 
encourages state and local agencies to set up reading rooms. The local 
reading rooms would provide read-only access to OCA information for all 
the sources in the LEPC's jurisdiction and for any source where the 
vulnerable zone extends into the LEPC's jurisdiction.
    Members of the public requesting to view OCA information at federal 
reading rooms would be required to sign in and self certify. If asking 
for OCA information from federal reading rooms for the facilities in 
the area where they live or work, they would be required to provide 
proof that they live or work in that area. Members of the public are 
required to give their names, telephone number, and the names of the 
facilities for which OCA information is being

    Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected by 
this action are States, local agencies and members of the public.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Voluntary.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 3,915.

5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total Estimated Cost: $327,768 per year.
    Change in Estimates: The burden and costs stated above are from the 
current approved ICR, 1981.04. EPA may adjust these estimates based on 
public comments received or other information gained by the Agency 
prior to submitting the ICR renewal package to OMB. EPA estimates a 
total of 5,430 hours (annually) for state and local agencies requesting 
OCA data from EPA and providing read-only access to the public. For the 
public to display photo identification, sign a sign-in sheet, certify 
that the individual has not received access to OCA information for more
