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 purpose of this
information collection request is to
collect information from applicants to
select recipients for the Presidential
Innovation Award for Environmental
Educators program. The U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA
or the Agency), in conjunction with the
White House Council on Environmental
Quality (CEQ), established the award
program to meet the requirements of
Section 8(e) of the National
Environmental Education Act (20 U.S.C.
5507(e)).
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: K–12
teachers who teach on a full-time basis
in a public school that is operated by a
local education agency, including
schools funded by the Bureau of Indian
Affairs. For this program, a local
education agency is one as defined by
section 198 of the Elementary and
Secondary Education Act of 1965 (now
codified at 20 U.S.C. 7801(26)).
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Required to obtain information from the
applicants for Presidential Innovation

Award for Environmental Educators and
assess certain aspects of the PIAEE
program as established under Section
8(e) of the National Environmental
Education Act (20 U.S.C. 5507(e)).
Estimated number of respondents: 75
(total).
Frequency of response: Annually.
Total estimated burden: 10 hours (per
year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $32,250 (per
year) for 75 applicants, includes $14,191
annualized capital or operation &
maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: We expect
that after adjusting the burden numbers
that the burden numbers will
substantially stay the same. Program
requirements are expected to stay the
same and the estimates currently
consider the use of technology to
complete the application.

Abstract: The Emission Guidelines for
Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste
Incineration (CISWI) Units apply to any
air quality program in either a state or
a United States protectorate with one or
more existing CISWI units. The
guidelines can be thought of as model
regulations that States use in developing
State plans to implement the emission
guidelines. If a state does not develop,
adopt, and submit an approvable state
plan, the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) must develop a Federal
plan to implement the emission
guidelines. These regulations apply to
existing CISWI units (units that

commenced construction on or before
the date of proposal).
In general, all Emissions Guidelines
standards require initial notifications,
performance tests, and periodic reports
by the owners/operators of the affected
facilities. They are also required to
maintain records of the occurrence and
duration of any startup, shutdown, or
malfunction in the operation of an
affected facility, or any period during
which the monitoring system is
inoperative. These notifications, reports,
and records are essential in determining
compliance with 40 CFR part 60,
subpart DDDD.
Form numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities:
Owners and operators of commercial
and industrial solid waste incineration
units.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart
DDDD).
Estimated number of respondents: 78
(total).
Frequency of response: Initially,
occasionally, semiannually, and
annually.
Total estimated burden: 10,400 hours
(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $11,200,000 (per
year), which includes $10,000,000 in
annualized capital/startup and/or
operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the estimates: There is an
adjustment increase in the estimated
burden cost and number of responses.
The adjustment increase in burden from
the most-recently approved ICR is due
to an increase in the number of sources
anticipated to remain subject to the
provisions of Subpart DDDD since the
last ICR renewal period, based on an
inventory maintained by OAQPS.
Specifically, the prior ICR assumed that
a number of units in the incinerator
subcategory would shut down based on
amendments to the rule. However, a
recent inventory of sources indicates
that these incinerators remain in
operation, and also identifies additional
facilities with units in the small remote
incinerators subcategory not previously
included in the inventory. The
adjustment increase in burden is due to
more accurate estimates of existing
sources. In addition, the burden hours
were increased as a result of accounting
for burden for each respondent to
refamiliarize themselves with regulatory
requirements each year.
