Total estimated cost: $3,300,200 (per year), includes $0 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in Estimates: There is an increase of 17,372 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB.

The telephone number for the Docket Center is 202–566–1744. For additional information about the EPA’s public docket, visit https:// www.epa.gov/dockets. Abstract: The Public Water System Supervision (PWSS) Program ICR examines public water system, primacy agency (e.g., states and tribes with primary enforcement authority) and tribal operator certification provider burden, and costs for ‘‘cross-cutting’’ recordkeeping and reporting requirements (i.e., the burden and costs for complying with drinking water information requirements that are not associated with contaminant-specific rulemakings). The following activities have recordkeeping and reporting requirements that are mandatory for compliance with the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) at 40 CFR parts 141 and 142: The Consumer Confidence Report Rule (CCR), the Variance and Exemption Rule (V/E Rule), General State Primacy Activities, the Public Notification (PN) Rule and Proficiency Testing Studies for Drinking Water Laboratories. The information collection activities for both the Operator Certification and the Capacity Development Program are driven by the grant withholding and reporting provisions under sections 1419 and E:\FR\FM\22MRN1.SGM 22MRN1 Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 56 / Friday, March 22, 2019 / Notices 1420, respectively, of the Safe Drinking Water Act. The information collection for the Tribal Operator Certification Program is driven by grant eligibility requirements outlined in the Drinking Water Infrastructure Grant Tribal SetAside Program Final Guidelines and the Tribal Drinking Water Operator Certification Program Guidelines. Form numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are new and existing public water systems and primacy agencies. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory for compliance with 40 CFR parts 141 and 142. Estimated number of respondents: 148,674 (total). Frequency of response: Varies by requirement (i.e., on occasion, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, and annually). Total estimated burden: 3,643,372 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b) Total estimated cost: $192,654,000 (per year), includes $38,121,000 in operation and maintenance costs. Changes in the estimates: There is a decrease of 125,841 hours in the total estimated annual respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This decrease is a result of: Updating relevant baseline information for each rule with the most current and accurate information available (e.g., public water system inventory); and, updating burden to include expected reductions associated with use of a cloud-based reporting database. Where appropriate and available, estimated violation and other associated rates have also been updated to reflect current information on rule compliance.

Abstract: In 2002, EPA’s Energy Supply and Industry Branch (ESIB) launched two partnership programs with industry and other stakeholders: The Green Power Partnership (GPP) and the Combined Heat and Power Partnership (CHPP). These voluntary partnership programs, along with others in the ESIB, encourage organizations to invest in clean, efficient energy technologies, including renewable energy and combined heat and power. To continue to be successful, it is critical that EPA collect information from these program stakeholders to ensure these organizations are meeting their clean energy goals and to assure the credibility of these voluntary nonregulatory programs. EPA has developed this ICR to obtain authorization to collect information from organizations participating in the GPP and CHPP, and other ESIB voluntary programs. Organizations that join these programs voluntarily agree to the following respective actions: (1) Designating a Green Power or CHP liaison and filling out a Partnership Agreement or Letter of Intent (LOI) respectively, (2) for the GPP, reporting to EPA, on an annual basis, their progress toward their green power commitment via a 3-page reporting form; (3) for the CHP Partnership, reporting to EPA information on their existing CHP projects, new project development, and other CHP-related activities via a one-page reporting form (for projects) or via an informal email or phone call (for other CHP-related activities). In addition to these actions, organizations may voluntarily apply for recognition to the programs’ established annual recognition events, which require submitting additional information. EPA uses the data obtained from its Partners to assess the success of these programs in achieving their national energy and greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction goals. Partners are organizational entities that have volunteered to participate in either Partnership program. Form numbers: EPA–430–K–013, EPA–430–F–05–034; EPA–5900–353. Respondents/affected entities: Company, institutional, and publicsector organizations that voluntarily participate in the EPA’s Green Power Partnership (GPP) or Combined Heat and Power Partnership (CHPP). These include both service and goods providing industries, educational institutions and non-governmental organizations, commercial and E:\FR\FM\22MRN1.SGM 22MRN1
