unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number.
DATES: Comments must be submitted on
or before October 16, 2017.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments,
referencing Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Supporting documents which explain in
detail the information that the EPA will
be collecting are available in the public
docket for this ICR. The docket can be
viewed online at www.regulations.gov
or in person at the EPA Docket Center,
WJC West, Room 3334, 1301
Constitution Ave. NW., Washington,
DC. The telephone number for the
Docket Center is 202–566–1744. For
additional information about EPA’s
public docket, visit https://www.epa.gov/
dockets.
Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the PRA, 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. 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, 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: The Resource Conservation
and Recovery Act (RCRA) is the public
law that creates the framework for the
proper management of hazardous and
non-hazardous solid waste. The RCRA
regulations established by EPA can be
found in 40 CFR parts 239 through 282.
This ICR (ICR No. 1189.26) is a
consolidation of a number of previously
approved RCRA ICRs, including the ICR

16AUN1
asabaliauskas on DSKBBXCHB2PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 157 / Wednesday, August 16, 2017 / Notices
for the rulemaking titled ‘‘Disposal of
Coal Combustion Residuals from
Electric Utilities’’ (CCR rule), a
rulemaking which was published in the
Federal Register on April 17, 2015. The
CCR rule establishes a comprehensive
set of requirements for the disposal of
CCR in landfills and surface
impoundments, including minimum
federal criteria for groundwater
monitoring and corrective action,
structural stability, design and operation
standards, closure and post-closure care
standards, and recordkeeping, reporting
and internet posting requirements.
In December 2016, the President
signed the Water Infrastructure
Improvements for the Nation (WIIN)
Act. Section 2301 of the WIIN Act
amended RCRA Subtitle D and
established new statutory provisions for
the control of CCR when placed in CCR
landfills and surface impoundments. In
particular, the WIIN Act provides that
states may, but are not required to,
develop and submit a permit program
(or other system of prior approval) for
control of CCR to EPA for approval.
Such a program does not have to be
identical to the requirements in the CCR
rule (40 CFR part 257, subpart D), but
must be at least as protective as the
federal CCR requirements. In order for a
state to receive approval of its CCR
permit program, the state must submit
to EPA specific materials that would
constitute a ‘‘complete’’ CCR permit
program application. The information
collection includes those activities to
develop the necessary CCR permit (or
other system of prior approval) program
materials for submittal to EPA for
approval. EPA is developing a guidance
document to provide states with the
information needed to apply for CCR
program approval.
To enable EPA to implement the new
authorities provided by the WIIN Act
(that is, to review and make
determinations on State programs), EPA
is revising ICR No. 1189.26 to account
for the new burden and cost estimates
associated with the voluntary actions
that states may take to obtain CCR
permit program approval. In this
revision to the ICR, EPA is also making
changes to the current burden and cost
estimates associated with a separate
voluntary state activity. Specifically,
EPA is proposing to revise the
respondent universe associated with the
activity of submitting a solid waste
management plan to EPA for approval.
The solid waste management plan is the
mechanism where a state is able to set
out, as part of their overall solid waste
program, how the state intends to
regulate CCR landfills and surface
impoundments. While the burden and
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 241001
cost associated with this activity is
included in the currently approved ICR,
EPA is revising the burden and cost
estimates to better reflect the actual state
response observed since the CCR rule
was published in 2015.
The EPA is not making any other
substantive revisions to the currently
approved ICR. The EPA is only
soliciting comments on burden and cost
estimates associated with activities
relating to state CCR permit programs
and state solid waste management plans
and will not consider comments on
other aspects of the currently approved
ICR.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: This
ICR affects owners and operators of CCR
landfills and surface impoundments
that dispose or otherwise engage in
solid waste management of CCR
generated from the combustion of coal
at electric utilities and independent
power producers. This ICR also affects
states that voluntarily elect to seek
approval from EPA of their state CCR
permit program or solid waste
management plan.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
For the CCR rule portion of the ICR, the
recordkeeping, notification, and internet
posting requirements are mandatory
under 40 CFR part 257, subpart D. The
actions that states may take to obtain
approval from EPA of either their CCR
permit program or solid waste
management plan is voluntary.
Estimated number of respondents:
494 (total subject to the CCR rule
portion of the ICR).
Frequency of response: Initially,
occasionally, annually, and every five
years.
Total estimated burden: 354,602
hours (per year) for the CCR rule portion
of the ICR. Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $63,858,128 (per
year) for the CCR rule portion of the
ICR, which includes $41,112,513
annualized capital cost or operation &
maintenance costs.
Changes in Estimates: There is
decrease of 4,355 hours in the total
estimated respondent burden compared
with the ICR currently approved by
OMB. The decrease in burden from the
most recently approved ICR is due to
adjustments in the respondent universe
associated with state solid waste
management plan activities. The most
recently approved ICR overestimated
the number of states that would
voluntarily update their overall solid
waste program by submitting to EPA a
solid waste management plan for CCR
for approval. The revision to the burden
estimates for the solid waste

management plan activity exceeded the
burden estimates associated with the

activity, which resulted in an overall
decrease in burden hours.
