The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) is planning to submit an

Control No. 2050–0120) to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for

the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) (44

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments,
referencing by Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–
RCRA–2015–0606, online using

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the PRA, the EPA is soliciting comments
and information to enable it to: (i)
Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the Agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (ii) evaluate the
accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (iv) minimize the burden
of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through
the use of appropriate automated
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses. The EPA will consider the
comments received and amend the ICR
as appropriate. The final ICR package
will then be submitted to OMB for
review and approval. At that time, the
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: Section 3004 of the
Resource Conservation and Recovery
Act (RCRA), as amended, requires that
the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency develop standards for hazardous
waste treatment, storage, and disposal
facilities (TSDFs) as may be necessary to
protect human health and the
environment. Subsections 3004(a)(1),
(3), (4), (5), and (6) specify that these
standards include, but not be limited to,
the following requirements:
• Maintaining records of all
hazardous wastes identified or listed
under subtitle C that are treated, stored,
or disposed of, and the manner in which
such wastes were treated, stored, or
disposed of;
• Operating methods, techniques, and
practices for treatment, storage, or
disposal of hazardous waste;
• Location, design, and construction
of such hazardous waste treatment,
disposal, or storage facilities;
• Contingency plans for effective
action to minimize unanticipated
damage from any treatment, storage, or
PO 00000
Frm 00017
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

disposal of any such hazardous waste;
and
• Maintaining or operating such
facilities and requiring such additional
qualifications as to ownership,
continuity of operation, training for
personnel, and financial responsibility
as may be necessary or desirable.
The regulations implementing these
requirements are codified in 40 CFR
parts 264 and 265. The collection of this
information enables the EPA to properly
determine whether owners/operators or
hazardous waste treatment, storage, and
disposal facilities meet the requirements
of Section 3004(a) of RCRA.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities:
Business and other for-profit, as well as
State, Local, and Tribal governments.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (RCRA section 3004).
Estimated number of respondents:
1,872.
Frequency of response: On occasion.
Total estimated burden: 672,417
hours. Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $38,978,384
which includes $38,444,859 annualized
labor costs and $535,525 annualized
capital or O&M costs.
Changes in Estimates: The burden
hours are likely to stay substantially the
same.
