Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60 subpart Cf). Estimated number of respondents: 1,912 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, annually. Total estimated burden: 634,000 hours (per year) for both privatelyowned and publicly-owned municipal solid waste landfills, with an additional 2,100 hours for State and local agencies administering this rule. Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $45,600,000 (per year) for both privately-owned and publicly-owned municipal solid waste landfills, which includes $2,760,000 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. This overall sum also includes $135,000 (per year) for State and local agenciescontrolled landfills. Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment decrease in the total estimated burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. The decrease in burden is due to changes in several areas. The number of respondents has been adjusted to reflects the lower expected number of landfills controlling between years 2022 through 2024 based on projected emissions, as well as the number of landfills subject between years 2022 and 2024, based on waste disposal quantities which increase over time at active landfills, and assuming that in these years landfills will be controlling under the more stringent 34 Mg/yr requirements. The estimates also subtract out landfills expected to modify during this time period and become subject to the MSW landfill NSPS instead (OMB Control Number 2060– 0697). This ICR therefore reflects an increase in the total number of respondents subject to the rule, but a smaller number of controlling landfills subject to monitoring and testing requirements. This ICR also reflects that some landfills subject to EPA approved state plans implementing Subpart Cf have completed their initial implementation activities to comply with the rule. Therefore, capital/startup costs (new equipment and testing) have decreased. O&M costs have also decreased from the previous ICR due to a decrease in the number of landfills required to control emissions and perform monitoring. The labor burden has also decreased in this ICR as most landfills have completed their initial compliance requirements, such as testing, submitting design capacity reports, submitting collection and control VerDate Sep<11>2014 22:36 Jan 08, 2021 Jkt 253001 system design plans. Additionally, this ICR adjusts the burden to remove requirements for certain sources (e.g., legacy controllers) that would have submitted certain one-time reports under other MSW Landfill regulations, and are not required to resubmit reports under Subpart Cf. This ICR also adjusts the burden for landfills to familiarize themselves with the new rule requirements to reflect the initial burden for reviewing the Federal plan or State plans, as they are implemented, and a lower recurring burden for refamiliarizing with the rule requirements after the first year. This ICR also adjusts the number of respondents subject to the requirements of subpart Cf which are implemented under State plans and a Federal plan to incorporate the burden associated with the Federal plan. The Federal plan is currently pending but expected to be finalized at 40 CFR part 62, subpart OOO. As of August 18, 2020, EPA data indicates that 8 State and local agencies enforce the State plans and two other state agencies are expected to have their plans effective by 2022. The remainder of these landfills will be covered by a federal plan once it becomes effective. Courtney Kerwin, Director, Regulatory Support Division.

Respondents/affected entities: Owners or operators of electric utility steam generating units. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart Da). Estimated number of respondents: 732 (total). Frequency of response: Semiannually, quarterly. Total estimated burden: 171,000 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).

Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease in burden from the currently approved ICR due to a slight decrease in the number of respondents. Based on consultations with agency experts, we expect no new coal-fired boilers under subpart Da and the discontinued use of some existing coal-fired units within the industry, thus reducing the number of respondents required to conduct recordkeeping and reporting. This results in a reduction in labor burden and eliminates costs associated with initial notifications and capital/startup costs. Courtney Kerwin, Director, Regulatory Support Division.

These reports are used by the EPA to determine compliance with these standards. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Facilities with a vegetable oil production process. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart GGGG). Estimated number of respondents: 92 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, and annually. Total estimated burden: 34,800 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $4,090,000 (per year), which includes $0 in annualized capital/startup and operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase in burden from the mostrecently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This increase is not due to any program changes. There is an increase in the number of respondents subject to the rule since the publication of the final rule in 2020. This increase is due to an assumption of a continued growth rate of one new respondent per year in the industry. Courtney Kerwin, Director, Regulatory Support Division.
