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 3005 of Subtitle C of
RCRA requires treatment, storage or
disposal facilities (TSDFs) to obtain a
permit. To obtain the permit, the TSDFs
must submit an application describing
the facility’s operation. There are two
parts to the RCRA permit application—
Part A and Part B. Part A defines the
processes to be used for treatment,
storage, and disposal of hazardous
wastes; the design capacity of such
processes; and the specific hazardous
wastes to be handled at the facility. Part
B requires detailed site specific
information such as geologic,
hydrologic, and engineering data. In the
event that permit modifications are
proposed by the applicant or the EPA,
modifications must conform to the
requirements under Sections 3004 and
3005.
