Abstract: The Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) program began in 2006 pursuant to the requirements in the VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:38 Feb 11, 2016 Jkt 238001 Clean Air Act (CAA) section 211(o) which were added through the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct). The statutory requirements for the RFS program were subsequently modified through the Energy Independence and Security act of 2007 (EISA), resulting in the promulgation of major revisions to the regulatory requirements on March 26, 2010. The RFS program requires that specified volumes of renewable fuel be used as transportation fuel, heating oil, and/or jet fuel each year. To accomplish this, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) publishes applicable percentage standards annually that apply to the sum of all gasoline and diesel produced or imported. Obligated parties demonstrate compliance with the standards through the acquisition of unique Renewable Identification Numbers (RINs) assigned by the producer or importer to every batch of renewable fuel produced or imported. This regulation will help EPA to monitor compliance with the RFS program and will ensure that the RIN system operates as originally intended. The data generated by the Quality Assurance Plan (QAP) program will assist obligated parties and smaller renewable fuel producers to comply with the requirements of the RFS program by supporting the validity of RINs. Form Numbers: EPA Forms 5900–354, 5900–355, 5900–356, 5900–323, 5900– 357, 5900–358, 5900–359, 5900–360, and 5900–361. Respondents/affected entities: Respondent’s obligation to respond: Voluntary (40 CFR part 80). Estimated number of respondents: 1,222 (total). Frequency of response: Quarterly, yearly and semiannually. Total estimated burden: 26,830 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). Total estimated cost: $2,984,207 (per year), includes $0 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 236,914 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This is due to a reduction in burden hours due to EMTS system’s automation structure. Courtney Kerwin, Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division.
