SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. What information is EPA particularly
interested in?
Pursuant to PRA section 3506(c)(2)(A)
(44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), EPA
specifically solicits comments and
information to enable it to:
1. 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.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:31 Mar 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
Agency’s estimates of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used.
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected.
4. 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. In
particular, EPA is requesting comments
from very small businesses (those that
employ less than 25) on examples of
specific additional efforts that EPA
could make to reduce the paperwork
burden for very small businesses
affected by this collection.
II. What information collection activity
or ICR does this action apply to?
Title: ‘‘Notification of Chemical
Exports—TSCA Section 12(b)’’.
EPA ICR number: EPA ICR No.
0795.16.
OMB control number: OMB Control
No. 2070–0030.
ICR status: This ICR is currently
scheduled to expire on November 30,
2020. 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 for EPA’s regulations in title 40
of the Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR), after appearing in the Federal
Register when approved, are listed in 40
CFR part 9, 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: Section 12(b) of the Toxic
Substances Control Act (TSCA) requires
any person who exports or intends to
export a chemical substance or mixture
that is regulated under TSCA sections 4,
5, 6 and/or 7 to notify EPA of such
export or intent to export. This
requirement is described in more detail
in the Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR) at 40 CFR part 707, subpart D.
Upon receipt of notification, EPA
advises the government of the importing
country of the U.S. regulatory action
that required the notification with
respect to that substance. EPA uses the
information obtained from the submitter
via this collection to advise the
government of the importing country.

This information collection addresses
the burden associated with industry
reporting of export notifications. The
respondent may claim all or part of a
notice confidential. EPA will disclose
information that is covered by a claim
of confidentiality only to the extent
permitted by, and in accordance with,
the procedures in TSCA and 40 CFR
part 2.
Burden statement: The annual public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is
estimated to average 0.62 hours per
response. Burden is defined in 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
The ICR, which is available in the
docket along with other related
materials, provides a detailed
explanation of the collection activities
and the burden estimate that is only
briefly summarized here:
Respondents/Affected Entities:
Entities potentially affected by this ICR
are exporters of chemical substances or
mixtures from the United States to
foreign countries, which are mostly
chemical companies classified under
NAICS Codes 325 and 324.
Estimated total number of potential
respondents: 198.
Frequency of response: On occasion.
Estimated total average number of
responses for each respondent: 24.
Estimated total annual burden hours:
2,934 hours.
Estimated total annual costs:
$230,198, includes no annualized
capital investment or maintenance and
operational costs.
III. Are there changes in the estimates
from the last approval?
There is a decrease of 1,098 hours in
the total estimated respondent burden
compared with that identified in the ICR
currently approved by OMB. This
decrease reflects a net change with a
large decrease in burden due to the
anticipated use of e-reporting and a
small increase in burden due to a greater
number of submissions (decrease in
number of firms responding, but
increase in number of reports per firm),
CBI substantiation, and an
administrative adjustment (+7 hours).
Based on 63 percent of exporters
reporting electronically, there is a
decrease in burden of approximately
811 hours relative to the case in which
all submissions were paper-based.
IV. What is the next step in the process
for this ICR?
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 pursuant to 5 CFR
E:\FR\FM\12MRN1.SGM
12MRN1
14480
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 49 / Thursday, March 12, 2020 / Notices

Register document pursuant to 5 CFR
1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to announce the
submission of the ICR to OMB and the
opportunity to submit additional
comments to OMB. If you have any
questions about this ICR or the approval
process, please contact the technical

The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA or the Agency) is
announcing the availability of, and
soliciting public comments on, the
proposed ‘‘baseline’’ approval of the
contact-handled (CH) transuranic (TRU)
debris waste characterization program
implemented by the Central
Characterization Program (CCP) at the
U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE)
Lawrence Livermore National
Laboratory (LLNL), in Livermore,
California. On June 26, 2019, the DOE
made a formal request for an EPA
baseline inspection for LLNL CH TRU
Waste Characterization Operations. The
inspection supporting this proposed
baseline approval took place on August
5–7, 2019, at LLNL and remotely. The
EPA identified no findings or concerns
and proposes to approve the LLNL CH
TRU debris waste characterization
program.
The EPA’s report documenting the
inspection results and proposed
baseline approval is available for review
in the public docket listed in the

II. Background
The DOE operates the Waste Isolation
Pilot Plant (WIPP) facility near Carlsbad
in southeastern New Mexico as a deep
geologic repository for disposal of
defense-related TRU radioactive waste.
TRU waste contains more than 100
nanocuries of alpha-emitting TRU
isotopes, with half-lives greater than
twenty years, per gram of waste. Much
of the existing TRU waste, which may
also be contaminated with hazardous
chemicals, consists of items
contaminated during the production of
nuclear weapons, such as debris waste
(rags, equipment, tools) and solid waste
(sludges, soil).
Section 8(d)(2) of the WIPP Land
Withdrawal Act (LWA) of 1992
provided that the EPA would certify
whether the WIPP facility will comply
with the Agency’s final disposal
regulations, later codified at 40 CFR part
191, subparts B and C. On May 13, 1998,
the Agency announced its final
compliance certification to the Secretary
of Energy (published May 18, 1998; 63
FR 27354), certifying that the WIPP will
comply with the disposal regulations.
The EPA’s certification of the WIPP was
subject to various conditions, including

Title: ``Notification of Chemical Exports--TSCA Section 12(b)''.
EPA ICR number: EPA ICR No. 0795.16.
OMB control number: OMB Control No. 2070-0030.
ICR status: This ICR is currently scheduled to expire on November
30, 2020. 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 for EPA's
regulations in title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), after
appearing in the Federal Register when approved, are listed in 40 CFR
part 9, 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: Section 12(b) of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA)
requires any person who exports or intends to export a chemical
substance or mixture that is regulated under TSCA sections 4, 5, 6 and/
or 7 to notify EPA of such export or intent to export. This requirement
is described in more detail in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) at
