Though an audit conducted under the Single Audit Act meets this requirement, the EPA still recommends that a CWSRF also undergo a separate independent audit as a best management practice. The audit must contain an opinion on the financial condition of the CWSRF program, a report on its internal controls, and a report on compliance with applicable laws and the CWA. Clean Water National Information Management System (CWNIMS) and CWSRF Benefits Reporting (CBR) To meet the CWA objective of ‘‘promoting the efficient use of fund resources,’’ states must enter financial data, including project disbursements, into the CWNIMS database on an annual basis. This publicly available information is used by the EPA to assess compliance with the CWSRFs’ mandate to use all funds in an ‘‘expeditious and timely’’ manner and achieve the objectives of the CWA. Project level data is collected on a quarterly basis using the CBR System to record projected environmental results from CWSRF projects. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES CWSRF Applications The application is developed and used by the CWSRFs to determine the project’s eligibility, to evaluate the borrower’s financial capability to repay the CWSRF, and to ensure that the borrower will comply with all applicable program requirements. The information collected by the CWSRF applications is consistent with requirements set forth by the CWA. Public Awareness Policy Per EPA Grants Policy Issuance (GPI) 14–02: Enhancing Public Awareness of EPA Assistance Agreements, CWSRF borrowers must publicize the EPA’s involvement in project funding only up to the funding amount in each year’s capitalization grant. The CWSRFs have various options to meet this requirement. Except for the public awareness policy and CWSRF applications, the respondents for the information collection activities are the state environmental departments and/or finance agencies responsible for operating the CWSRFs. The CWSRFs have procedures in place to assist borrowers in completing the applications. The public awareness policy directly impacts CWSRF VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:32 Jan 10, 2020 Jkt 250001 borrowers that are designated as recipients of federal funds. The burden associated with the public awareness policy should not have an impact on small entities since the CWSRFs have flexibility in determining which borrowers must comply with this requirement. Form numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Entities affected by this action are state environmental departments and/or finance agencies responsible for operating the CWSRFs and eligible CWSRF borrowers. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Required to obtain or retain a benefit per Title VI of CWA as amended by WRRDA. Estimated number of respondents: 51 state environmental departments and/or finance agencies (per year); 1,544 eligible CWSRF borrowers (per year). Frequency of response: Varies by requirement (i.e., quarterly and annually). Total estimated burden: 659,390 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). Total estimated cost: $33,199,314 (per year). Changes in estimates: There is an increase of 72,004 hours (per year) in the total estimated reporting burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This increase is from an upward adjustment of the annual number of CWSRF applications expected to occur during this collection period. Specifically, the estimated annual number of CWSRF applications has been increased from 1,359 to 1,544 in response to recent activity. Dated: December 20, 2019. Andrew D.
