Agency Information Collection Activities: Comment Request, 49922-49923 [2018-21513]

Download as PDF daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES 49922 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 192 / Wednesday, October 3, 2018 / Notices Diversion of food waste from landfills is a critical component of this effort. In order to effectively divert food waste from landfills, sufficient capacity to process the diverted materials is required. Knowledge of organics recycling capacity is needed to facilitate food waste diversion and anaerobic digestion facilities provide a significant amount of the needed capacity. EPA’s food recovery hierarchy prioritizes potential actions to prevent and divert wasted food. According to the hierarchy, processing wasted food via anaerobic digestion is a more desirable option than landfilling or incineration because it creates more benefits for the environment, society and the economy. Anaerobic digestion of food waste and other organic materials generates renewable energy, reduces methane emissions to the atmosphere, and provides opportunities to improve soil health through the production of soil amendments. The SFM program supports these efforts by educating state and local governments and communities about the benefits of wasted food diversion. The SFM program also builds partnerships with state agencies and other strategic partners interested in developing organics recycling capacity and provides tools to assist organizations in developing anaerobic digestion (AD) projects. The nationwide collection of data about AD facilities processing food waste began in 2017 with a survey of all known AD facilities under the initial Information Collection Request (ICR No. 2533.01). EPA published the first annual report of findings based on this data in July 2018. This information collection consists of a request to renew ICR No. 2533.02 in order to continue to monitor growth and evaluate trends in the capacity for processing of food waste and the amount of food waste being processed via AD in the United States. Data will be collected using electronic surveys that will be distributed to respondents by email and will be available on EPA’s AD website. Form numbers: EPA Form 6700–03, EPA Form 6700–04, EPA Form 6700–05. Respondents/affected entities: Project Developers, Project Owners or Plant Operators, and Livestock Farmers. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Voluntary. Estimated number of respondents: 382 (total). Frequency of response: Annually. Total estimated burden: 254 hours (per year).

Changes in estimates: The overall burden has slightly decreased from the original ICR. For this renewal, some questions have been revised for clarity, numerous questions have been eliminated and a series of questions have been streamlined. The time to complete the survey will decrease for operating years 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 for Respondents that previously provided data. Dated: September 24, 2018. John A.
