For additional information about the EPA’s public docket, visit https://www.epa.gov/dockets. Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, the 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 VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:56 Apr 29, 2020 Jkt 250001 electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. The 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, the 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: This ICR calculates the burden and costs associated with reporting and recordkeeping requirements of the Effluent Limitations Guidelines (ELG) Dental Category. For purposes of this estimate, the EPA assumed all existing dentists affected by the original rulemaking would have complied with the One-Time Compliance Reporting by the time of this ICR renewal. This estimate includes the effort for One-Time Compliance Reporting for new dental offices which open during the ICR period and those which transfer ownership and conduct annual recordkeeping. This estimate is based on average total compensation labor rates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics for the dental office personnel involved in collecting and reporting the information required. This estimate also includes the effort for control authorities to review the information submitted by dentists that certify they meet the requirements of the final rule. The EPA estimates that there would be no start-up or capital costs associated with the information described above. Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320(b). This ICR is a revision of the ‘‘Information Collection Request for Effluent Limitation Guidelines for the Dental Category (Renewal)’’ (EPA ICR No. 2514.03, OMB Control No. 2040– 0287) that estimated the burden and costs associated with reporting and record-keeping activities associated with the Final ELG and Standards for the Dental Category. Respondent reports may contain confidential business information. If a respondent does consider this information to be of a confidential nature, the respondent may request that such information be treated as confidential. All confidential data will be handled in accordance with 40 CFR 122.7, 40 CFR part 2, and the EPA’s Security Manual part III, chapter 9, dated August 9, 1976. Form numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Dentists, Control Authorities. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory. Sections 403 and 441 of the CWA. PO 00000 Frm 00019 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Estimated number of respondents: 124,378 annual average (122,741 permittees and 1,637 States/Tribes/ Territories). Frequency of response: One time. Total estimated burden: 392,646 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). Total estimated cost: $11,065,942 (per year), includes $6,655 in non-labor costs (i.e., postage and file storage). Changes in estimates: The labor hours decreased since the last OMB approved ICR. However, the number of respondents and the labor rates increased; therefore, the overall burden increased. The EPA presumed a one percent growth rate in dental offices and that the EPA is presuming only new dental offices and dental offices transferring ownership will be doing the One-Time Compliance Reporting. However, the EPA revised labor rates to 2018 dollars and included total compensation rather than just wages. Dated: April 24, 2020. Andrew D. Sawyers, Director, Office of Wastewater Management.

Abstract: The Privacy Rule is designed to ensure that customers and consumers, subject to certain exceptions, will have access to the privacy policies of the covered financial institutions with which they conduct business—namely, motor vehicle dealers that do not routinely extend credit to consumers directly without assigning the credit to unaffiliated third parties (hereafter, ‘‘motor vehicle dealers’’). As mandated by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (‘‘GLBA’’), 15 U.S.C. 6801–6809, the Rule requires motor vehicle dealers to disclose to consumers: (1) Initial notice of the financial institution’s privacy policy when establishing a customer relationship with a consumer and/or before sharing a consumer’s nonpublic personal information with certain nonaffiliated third parties; (2) notice of the consumer’s right to opt out of information sharing with such parties; (3) annual notice of the institution’s privacy policy to any continuing customer; 1 and (4) notice of changes in 1 On December 4, 2015, Congress amended the GLBA as part of the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (‘‘FAST Act’’). This amendment, titled Eliminate Privacy Notice Confusion (FAST Act, Public Law 114094, section 75001) added new GLBA section 503(f). This subsection provides an exception under which financial institutions that meet certain conditions are not required to provide annual privacy notices to customers. Section 503(f) requires that to qualify for this exception, a financial institution must not share nonpublic personal information about customers except as described in certain statutory exceptions, under which sharing does not trigger a customer’s E:\FR\FM\30APN1.SGM Continued 30APN1

documents are as legally dependable as their paper counterparts. 
Subpart D of CROMERR requires that state, tribal or local government 
agencies that receive, or wish to begin receiving, electronic reports
