Download as PDF 60844 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 228 / Tuesday, November 27, 2018 / Notices amozie on DSK3GDR082PROD with NOTICES1 implementing regulations for section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, the Commission is using this notice to initiate consultation with the applicable State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), and to solicit their views and those of other government agencies, interested Indian tribes, and the public on the project’s potential effects on historic properties.4 Commission staff will define the project-specific Area of Potential Effects (APE) in consultation with the SHPO as the project develops. On natural gas facility projects, the APE at a minimum encompasses all areas subject to ground disturbance (examples include construction right-of-way, contractor/ pipe storage yards, compressor stations, and access roads). The EA for this project will document findings on the impacts on historic properties and summarize the status of consultations under section 106. Environmental Mailing List The environmental mailing list includes federal, state, and local government representatives and agencies; elected officials; environmental and public interest groups; Native American Tribes; other interested parties; and local libraries. This list also includes all affected landowners (as defined in the Commission’s regulations) who are potential right-of-way grantors, whose property may be used temporarily for project purposes, or who own homes within certain distances of aboveground facilities, and anyone who submits comments on the project. Commission staff will update the environmental mailing list as the analysis proceeds to ensure that Commission notices related to this environmental review are sent to all individuals, organizations, and government entities interested in and/or potentially affected by the proposed project. If the Commission issues the EA for an allotted public comment period, a Notice of Availability of the EA will be sent to the environmental mailing list and will provide instructions to access the electronic document on the FERC’s website (www.ferc.gov). If you need to make changes to your name/address, or if you would like to remove your name from the mailing list, please return the attached ‘‘Mailing List Update Form’’ (appendix 2). 4 The Advisory Council on Historic Preservation’s regulations are at Title 36, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 800. Those regulations define historic properties as any prehistoric or historic district, site, building, structure, or object included in or eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places.

ICR, which is currently approved through November 30, 2018. EPA did not 
receive any comments in response to the previously provided 60-day 
public review opportunity (83 FR 43675, August 27, 2018) (FRL-9982-52). 
Under the PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., an agency may not conduct or 
sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of 
information, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. 
The OMB control numbers are displayed either by publication in the 
Federal Register or by other appropriate means, such as on the related 
collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB 
control numbers for certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR 
part 9.
    Abstract: This ICR covers the information collection activities 
that implement the statutory mandates in section 6(e) of the Toxic 
Substances Control Act (TSCA) related to polychlorinated biphenyls 
(PCBs), 15 U.S.C. 2605(e). Specifically, TSCA section 6(e)(1) directs 
EPA to regulate the marking and disposal of PCBs. Section 6(e)(2) bans 
the manufacturing, processing, distribution in commerce, and use of

Implementing regulations have been codified in 40 CFR part 761, and 
include approximately 100 specific reporting, third-party reporting, 
and recordkeeping requirements. The regulations are intended to prevent 
the improper handling and disposal of PCBs and to minimize the exposure 
of human beings or the environment to PCBs.
    Responses to the collection of information are mandatory (see 40 
CFR part 761). Respondents may claim all or part of a response 
confidential. EPA will disclose information that is covered by a claim 
of confidentiality only to the extent permitted by, and in accordance

    Form numbers: 7720-12 and 7710-53.
    Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected by 
this ICR are persons who currently possess PCB items, PCB-contaminated 
equipment or other PCB waste.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory.
    Estimated number of respondents: 87,190 (total).
    Frequency of response: On occasion.
    Total estimated burden: 681,407 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $30,374,118 (per year), includes $0 
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the estimates: This request reflects a decrease of 
64,519 hours in the total estimated respondent burden from that 
currently in the OMB inventory. The changes in the total annual 
respondent reporting and recordkeeping burdens and costs are due to 
updates to the most current wage rate data and to revisions to the 
total number of respondents. The revisions to total number of 
respondents are the result of new data gathered for this ICR effort, 
updated Agency data regarding total numbers of regulated entities, and 
the overlapping coverage of the recently revised Universal Hazardous 
Waste Manifest ICR (OMB Control No. 2050-0039). The ICR supporting 
statement provides a detailed analysis of the change in burden 
estimate. This change is an adjustment.
