    Abstract: In order to effectively implement and enforce final 
changes to 40 CFR part 258 on a State level, owners/operators of 
municipal solid waste landfills have to comply with the final reporting 
and recordkeeping requirements. Respondents include owners or operators 
of new municipal solid waste landfills (MSWLFs), existing MSWLFs, and 
lateral expansions of existing MSWLFs. The respondents, in complying 
with 40 CFR part 258, are

[[Page 8957]]

required to record information in the facility operating record, 
pursuant to Sec.  258.29, as it becomes available. The operating record 
must be supplied to the State as requested until the end of the post-
closure care period of the MSWLF. The information collected will be 
used by the State Director to confirm owner or operator compliance with 
the regulations under Part 258. These owners or operators could include 
Federal, State, and local governments, and private waste management 
companies. Facilities in NAICS codes 9221, 5622, 3252, 3251 and 3253 
may be affected by this rule.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Business or other for-profit, as 
well as State, Local, and Tribal governments.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory, see 40 CFR part 
258.29.
    Estimated number of respondents: 3,800.
    Frequency of response: On occasion.
    Total estimated burden: 204,808 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $2,211,000 (per year), includes $1,831,00 
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in Estimates: There is increase of 60 hours in the total 
estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by 
OMB. This increase is due to the increased number of states adopting 
the RD&D section (258.4) since the last ICR update.
