Abstract: This ICR is for activities related to the implementation of the EPA’s New Source Review (NSR) program, for the time period between May 1, 2017, and April 30, 2020, and renews the previous ICR. Title I, part C of the Clean Air Act (CAA or the Act)— ‘‘Prevention of Significant Deterioration,’’ and part D—‘‘Plan Requirements for Nonattainment E:\FR\FM\24APN1.SGM 24APN1 jstallworth on DSK7TPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 77 / Monday, April 24, 2017 / Notices Areas,’’ require all states to adopt preconstruction review programs for new or modified stationary sources of air pollution. In addition, the provisions of section 110 of the Act include a requirement for states to have a preconstruction review program to manage the emissions from the construction and modification of any stationary source of air pollution to assure that the National Ambient Air Quality Standards are achieved and maintained. Tribes may choose to develop implementation plans to address these requirements. Implementing regulations for these three programs are promulgated at 40 CFR 49.101 through 49.105; 40 CFR 49.151 through 49.173; 40 CFR 51.160 through 51.166; 40 CFR part 51, Appendix S; and 40 CFR 52.21 and 52.24. In order to receive a construction permit for a major new source or major modification, the applicant must conduct the necessary research, perform the appropriate analyses and prepare the permit application with documentation to demonstrate that their project meets all applicable statutory and regulatory NSR requirements. Specific activities and requirements are listed and described in the Supporting Statement for the ICR. State, local, tribal or federal reviewing authorities review permit applications and provide for public review of proposed projects and issue permits based on their consideration of all technical factors and public input. The EPA, more broadly, reviews a fraction of the total applications and audits the state and local programs for their effectiveness. Consequently, information prepared and submitted by sources is essential for sources to receive permits, and for federal, state, and local environmental agencies to adequately review the permit applications and thereby properly administer and manage the NSR programs. Information that is collected is handled according to EPA’s policies set forth in title 40, chapter 1, part 2, subpart B—Confidentiality of Business Information (see 40 CFR part 2). See also section 114(c) of the Act. Form numbers: 5900–246, 5900–247, 5900–248, 5900–340, 5900–341, 5900– 342, 5900–343, 5900–344, 5900–367, 5900–368, 5900–369, 5900–370, 5900– 371, 5900–372, 5900–390 and 5900–391. Respondents/Affected Entities: Entities that must apply for and obtain a preconstruction permit under part C or D or section 110(a)(2)(C) of title I of the Act. In addition, state, local and tribal reviewing authorities that must review VerDate Sep<11>2014 13:48 Apr 21, 2017 Jkt 241001 permit applications and issue permits are affected entities. Respondent’s Obligation To Respond: Mandatory [40 CFR part 49, subpart C; 40 CFR part 51, subpart I; 40 CFR part 52, subpart A; 40 CFR part 124, subparts A and C]. Estimated Number of Respondents: 73,762 (total); 73,639 industrial facilities and 123 state, local and tribal reviewing authorities. Frequency of Response: On occasion, as necessary. Total Estimated Burden: 5,516,675 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). Total Estimated Cost: $428,829,729 (per year). This includes $3,535,524 annually in outsourced start-up costs for preconstruction monitoring. Changes in Estimates: There is a decrease of 2,417,665 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This decrease has two primary causes: (1) A significant decrease in the estimated number of industrial facilities subject to CAA title I, part C permitting as a result of the U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Utility Air Regulatory Group (UARG) v. EPA (134 S.Ct. 2427 (2014)); and (2) a significant decrease in the estimated number of permits and registrations on tribal lands based on the progress in, and experience with, implementing the tribal NSR program.
