Abstract: Water quality standards (WQS) under the Clean Water Act (hereafter referred to as ‘‘the Act’’) are provisions of state,1 tribal,2 or federal law which consist of designated uses for waters of the United States, water quality criteria to protect those uses, and antidegradation requirements. WQS are established to protect public health or welfare, protect and enhance the quality of water, and serve the purposes of the Act. Such standards serve the dual purposes of establishing the water quality goals for water bodies and serving as the regulatory basis for the establishment of water quality-based treatment controls and strategies beyond technology-based levels of treatment required by sections 301(b) and 306 of the Act. The WQS regulation, consisting of 40 CFR part 131, establishes the framework for states and authorized tribes to adopt standards, and for EPA to review and approve or disapprove them. This ICR is for information collections needed to implement the WQS regulation, required to obtain or retain benefits (e.g., relaxed regulatory requirements) under the WQS regulation, and requested on a voluntary basis to gather technical program information. This ICR renews the WQS Regulation ICR, OMB control no. 2040–0049, expiration date 12/31/2021. This ICR renewal describes the estimated burden for states and authorized tribes associated with the information collections related to implementation of the requirements of 40 CFR part 131 (Water Quality Standards). This ICR also covers periodic requests for voluntary WQS information from states and tribes to ensure efficient and effective administration of the WQS program and further cooperative federalism. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Potential respondents to this ICR 1 ‘‘States’’ in EPA’s WQS Regulation and in this document includes the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Guam, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. 2 ‘‘Tribes’’ in this document refers to federally recognized tribes and ‘‘authorized tribes’’ refers to those federally recognized Indian tribes with authority to administer a CWA WQS program.
