information must be included so that
the potential for releases, and proposed
inspection and monitoring, can be
evaluated by EPA.
While the unit(s) to be evaluated
under this guidance are the temporary
waste piles, petitioners should also
submit information related to the
landfill to the extent the information
aids in any demonstration that
hazardous constituents will not migrate
beyond the boundary of the temporary
waste pile. For example, hazardous
waste landfill design and operating
requirements (40 CFR 264.301) include
run-on and run-off controls that may be
important in any demonstration that
hazardous waste will not migrate from
the pile. The specific location of where
the temporary waste piles will be placed
within the landfill cell should be
identified in the petition, together with
any pertinent information as to why this
location was selected and how it will
prevent the migration of hazardous
constituents from the pile. These
locations will be identified as part of
any approved variance.
This document only applies where
wastes managed in the temporary waste
piles have been treated with the
expectation that the waste meets the
applicable LDR standards for permanent
disposal in the landfill. A facility
should include information about what
types and quantities of waste are to be
managed in the temporary waste piles
and what treatment standards apply.
Most of this information is presumed to
already be available as part of the
facility’s WAP and associated program
for sampling and monitoring for
compliance with the LDRs.
Duration of Temporary Storage—The
NMV is necessary to ensure that any
temporary storage of treated hazardous
waste complies with the stringent
statutory and regulatory standards in
those instances where the hazardous
waste that was treated and placed in a
temporary waste pile does not meet
LDRs. The approach described in this
document is conditioned upon the
temporary nature of the storage of
treated hazardous waste within the
landfill, and is intended for situations
where the temporary waste piles are
used as part of an overall strategy to
confirm consistent and compliant
treatment that meets the applicable LDR
treatment standards.
The petition should include a
description of the length of time the
waste is managed in the pile before
either transfer to the working face of the
landfill, or removal for retreatment, if
necessary. A range of time may be
provided, but EPA emphasizes that the
temporary nature of the pile must be

Jkt 253001
clearly characterized in the petition,
such as through maximum storage times
or other procedures described in the
application, that may become part of the
conditions established in an approved
variance.
However, if any particular staging
location routinely receives treated waste
that does not meet applicable LDR
standards, then the ‘‘temporary’’ aspect
of storage for a given location may be
called into question, which could affect
the ability for EPA to grant the NMV.
This also raises the separate question of
whether the overall treatment process is
operating as well as it should.
Therefore, it is important for the
petition to describe in sufficient detail
the procedures used to treat, test, and
confirm that wastes meet LDR
standards, and how this information
will be used to determine when a pile
will be removed either for retreatment,
or for final disposal. Such information
should be available as part of the
facility’s WAP and may include:
• Number and type (e.g., random
grab) of samples taken after treatment
for LDR compliance;
• Methodology used to select number
and type of samples;
• Level of confidence that all waste is
treated to LDR treatment standards
(level of confidence related to number of
samples achieving LDRs);
• List of regulated constituents (suite
of metals, selected organics, cyanide).
Monitoring Plan—40 CFR 268.6(a)(4)
requires a petition to include a
monitoring plan to verify continued
compliance with the conditions of the
no migration variance. Pursuant to 40
CFR 268.6(a)(4), the monitoring plan
must be designed to detect migration ‘‘at
the earliest practicable time.’’ 40 CFR
268.6(c) lays out the specific
information required in the monitoring
plan. In addition to these requirements,
the monitoring plan should also
describe the sampling and analysis of
the treated waste that determines when
the temporary waste pile will be moved
to the working face of the landfill for
final disposal. The demonstration
should allow EPA to understand the
process and timing of LDR treatment
and confirmation that LDRs are met; this
is fundamental to defining the scope
and duration of storing treated waste
temporarily.

Assistant Administrator, Office of Land and
Emergency Management.

Overview of Information Collection
Collection Title: State and Local
Government Information (EEO–4).
OMB-Number: 3046–0008.
Frequency of Report: Biennial, odd
years.
Type of Respondent: State and local
governments with 100 or more
employees within the 50 U.S. states and
District of Columbia.
Description of Affected Public: State
and local governments with 100 or more
employees within the 50 U.S. states and
District of Columbia.
Reporting Hours: 95,542 per biennial
collection.
Respondent Cost: $4,719,509.02 per
biennial collection.
Federal Cost: $386,609.20 per
biennial collection.
Number of Respondents: 5,687.
Number of Responses: 13,649.
Number of Forms: 1.
Form Number: EEOC Form 164.
Abstract: Section 709(c) of Title VII of
the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as
amended, 42 U.S.C. 2000e–8(c), requires
State and local governments to make
and keep records relevant to a
determination of whether unlawful
employment practices have been or are
being committed and produce reports
required by the EEOC. Accordingly, the
EEOC issued regulations, 29 CFR
1602.30 and 1602.32–.37, which set
forth the reporting requirements and
related record retention policies for
State and local governments. 29 CFR
1602.30 requires every covered State
and local government to make or keep
all records necessary for completion of
an EEO–4 submission and retain those
records for three years. 29 CFR 1602.32
requires filers to retain a copy of each
filed EEO–4 report for three years. These
requirements are related to record
keeping which is part of standard
administrative practices, and as a result,
the EEOC believes that any impact on
burden would be negligible and nearly
impossible to quantify. State and local
governments with 100 or more
employees have been required to submit
EEO–4 reports since 1974 (biennially
since 1993). The EEOC uses EEO–4 data
for research and to investigate charges of
discrimination. The individual reports
are confidential.
Burden Statement: The methodology
for calculating annual burden reflects
the different staff that are responsible
for preparing and filing the EEO–4.
These estimates are based on the
estimated submission time of 7 hours
per reporting unit, as published in the
2018 EEO–4 Information Collection
Review as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act.1 The EEOC accounts for
time to be spent biennially on EEO–4
reporting by senior and administrative
staff, as well as time spent by attorneys
who may consult briefly during the
reporting process. The estimated
number of respondents included in the
biennial EEO–4 survey is 5,687 State
and local governments, as this is the
average number of reporting units
between 2005 and 2019. These 5,687
respondents will submit an estimated
13,649 reports during each biennial
reporting cycle. The estimated hour
burden per report will be 7 hours, and
the estimated total biennial respondent
burden hours will be 95,542. Burden
hour cost was calculated using median
hourly wage rates for administrative
staff and legal counsel, and average
hourly wage rates for State and local
government staff. The burden hour cost
per report will be $214.77, and the
estimated total burden hour cost per
biennial collection will be
$4,719,509.02 (See Table 1 for
calculations).

These estimates are based upon filers’
use of the EEO–4 online filing system to
submit reports. The EEOC has made
electronic submission much easier for
respondents required to file the EEO–4
Report and as a result, more
respondents are using this electronic
filing method. During the 2019 EEO–4
data collection cycle, 4,988 EEO–4 filers
completed and certified their
submission. Of the 4,988 EEO–4 filers
who submitted data in 2019, 5%
uploaded a data file, 91% filed through
the online application, and 4%
submitted paper records. Electronic
filing remains the most efficient,
accurate, and secure means of reporting
for respondents required to submit the
EEO–4 report. Accordingly, the EEOC
will continue to encourage EEO–4 filers
to submit data through electronic filing,
and will only accept paper records from
filers who have secured permission to
submit data via paper submission.
For the Commission.

OMB-Number: 3046-0008.
Frequency of Report: Biennial, odd years.
Type of Respondent: State and local governments with 100 or more
employees within the 50 U.S. states and District of Columbia.
Description of Affected Public: State and local governments with
100 or more employees within the 50 U.S. states and District of
Columbia.
Reporting Hours: 95,542 per biennial collection.
Respondent Cost: $4,719,509.02 per biennial collection.
Federal Cost: $386,609.20 per biennial collection.
Number of Respondents: 5,687.
Number of Responses: 13,649.
Number of Forms: 1.
Form Number: EEOC Form 164.
Abstract: Section 709(c) of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of
1964, as amended, 42 U.S.C. 2000e-8(c), requires State and local
governments to make and keep records relevant to a determination of
whether unlawful employment practices have been or are being committed
and produce reports required by the EEOC. Accordingly, the EEOC issued
regulations, 29 CFR 1602.30 and 1602.32-.37, which set forth the
reporting requirements and related record retention policies for State
and local governments. 29 CFR 1602.30 requires every covered State and
local government to make or keep all records necessary for completion
of an EEO-4 submission and retain those records for three years. 29 CFR
1602.32 requires filers to retain a copy of each filed EEO-4 report for
three years. These requirements are related to record keeping which is
part of standard administrative practices, and as a result, the EEOC
believes that any impact on burden would be negligible and nearly
impossible to quantify. State and local governments with 100 or more
employees have been required to submit EEO-4 reports since 1974
(biennially since 1993). The EEOC uses EEO-4 data for research and to
investigate charges of discrimination. The individual reports are
confidential.
Burden Statement: The methodology for calculating annual burden
reflects the different staff that are responsible for preparing and
filing the EEO-4. These estimates are based on the estimated submission
time of 7 hours per reporting unit, as published in the 2018 EEO-4
Information Collection Review as required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act.\1\ The EEOC accounts for time to be spent biennially on EEO-4
reporting by senior and administrative staff, as well as time spent by
attorneys who may consult briefly during the reporting process. The
estimated number of respondents included in the biennial EEO-4 survey
is 5,687 State and local governments, as this is the average number of
reporting units between 2005 and 2019. These 5,687 respondents will
submit an estimated 13,649 reports during each biennial reporting
cycle. The estimated hour burden per report will be 7 hours, and the
estimated total biennial respondent burden hours will be 95,542. Burden
hour cost was calculated using median hourly wage rates for
administrative staff and legal counsel, and average hourly wage rates
for State and local government staff. The burden hour cost per report
will be $214.77, and the estimated total burden hour cost per biennial
collection will be $4,719,509.02 (See Table 1 for calculations).

These estimates are based upon filers' use of the EEO-4 online
filing system to submit reports. The EEOC has made electronic
submission much easier for respondents required to file the EEO-4
Report and as a result, more respondents are using this electronic
filing method. During the 2019 EEO-4 data collection cycle, 4,988 EEO-4
filers completed and certified their submission. Of the 4,988 EEO-4
filers who submitted data in 2019, 5% uploaded a data file, 91% filed
through the online application, and 4% submitted paper records.
Electronic filing remains the most efficient, accurate, and secure
means of reporting for respondents required to submit the EEO-4 report.
Accordingly, the EEOC will continue to encourage EEO-4 filers to submit
data through electronic filing, and will only accept paper records from
filers who have secured permission to submit data via paper submission.
