Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 163 / Thursday, August 22, 2019 / Notices
section 108(a)(2)). Under section 109 of
the Act, the EPA is then to establish
primary (health-based) and secondary
(welfare-based) NAAQS for each
pollutant for which the EPA has issued
air quality criteria. Section 109(d)(1) of
the Act requires periodic review and, if
appropriate, revision of existing air
quality criteria. Revised air quality
criteria are to reflect advances in
scientific knowledge on the effects of
the pollutant on public health and
welfare. Under the same provision, the
EPA is also to periodically review and,
if appropriate, revise the NAAQS, based
on the revised air quality criteria.
The Act additionally requires
appointment of an independent
scientific review committee that is to
periodically review the existing air
quality criteria and NAAQS and to
recommend any new standards and
revisions of existing criteria and
standards as may be appropriate (CAA
section 109(d)(2)(A)–(B)). Since the
early 1980s, the requirement for an
independent scientific review
committee has been fulfilled by the
Clean Air Scientific Advisory
Committee (CASAC).
Presently the EPA is reviewing the air
quality criteria and NAAQS for
photochemical oxidants and O3.1 The
document announced in this notice has
been developed as part of the planning
phase for the review. In this phase, a
draft IRP was prepared jointly by the
EPA’s National Center for
Environmental Assessment, within the
Office of Research and Development,
and the Office of Air Quality Planning
and Standards, within the Office of Air
and Radiation. The draft IRP was the
subject of a consultation with CASAC
on November 29, 2018 and was
available for public comment (83 FR
55163, November 2, 2018; 83 FR 55528,
November 6, 2018). The document
announced today has been prepared
after consideration of CASAC and
public comments. This IRP presents
EPA’s current plans for the schedule for
the entire review, the process for
conducting the review, and the key
policy-relevant science issues that will
guide the review. This document does
not represent and should not be
construed to represent any final EPA
policy, viewpoint, or determination.

Estimated Time per Response: .50
hours to 6 hours.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
and annual reporting requirements.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. Statutory
authority for this information collection
is contained in 47 U.S.C. 4(i), 308(b),

Total Annual Burden: 7,288 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $2,223,375.
Privacy Impact Assessment: No

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
In general, there is no need for
confidentiality. On a case by case basis,
the Commission may be required to
withhold from disclosure certain
information about the location,
character, or ownership of a historic
property, including traditional religious
sites.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
will submit this expiring information
collection to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) after this comment
period to obtain the three year clearance
from them. FCC Form 609–T is used by
Designated Entities (DEs) to request
prior Commission approval pursuant to
Section 1.2114 of the Commission’s
rules for any reportable eligibility event.
The data collected on the form is used
by the FCC to determine whether the
public interest would be served by the
approval of the reportable eligibility
event.
FCC Form 611–T is used by DE
licensees to file an annual report,
pursuant to Section 1.2110(n) of the
Commission’s rules, related to eligibility
for designated entity benefits.
The information collected will be
used to ensure that only legitimate small
businesses reap the benefits of the
Commission’s designated entity
program. Further, this information will
assist the Commission in preventing
companies from circumventing the
objectives of the designated entity
eligibility rules by allowing us to
review: (1) The FCC 609–T applications
seeking approval for ‘‘reportable
eligibility events’’ and (2) the FCC Form
611–T annual reports to ensure that
licensees receiving designated entity
benefits are in compliance with the
Commission’s policies and rules.
