Download as PDF 4236 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 18 / Thursday, January 27, 2022 / Notices SERC (or TERC), LEPC (or TEPC), and LFD with jurisdiction over their facility. This inventory form, the Tier II Emergency and Hazardous Chemical Inventory Form, is to be submitted on or before March 1 of each year and must include the inventory of hazardous chemicals present at the facility in the previous calendar year. Currently, all states require facilities to submit the Federal Tier II form or the stateequivalent, including electronic submission. Form Numbers: Tier I Emergency and Hazardous Chemical Inventory Form, EPA Form No. 8700–29, Tier II Emergency and Hazardous Chemical Inventory Form, EPA Form No. 8700– 30. Respondents/affected entities: Manufacturers and non-manufacturers required to have available a MSDS (or Safety Data Sheet (SDS)) under the OSHA HCS. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (sections 311 and 312 of EPCRA). Estimated number of respondents: 471,787 facilities (total). This figure includes 3,052 LEPCs and SERCs. Frequency of response: Annual. Total estimated burden: 6,963,271 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). Total estimated cost: $306,735,727 (per year), includes $1,715,094 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: O&M costs were reduced from the previous ICR renewal for two reasons. First, mailing costs were reduced by two-thirds because electronic communications have greatly reduced the reliance on the use of mail services. In addition, EPA no longer assumes that filing cabinets used to store paper forms are replaced every 15 years. Instead, EPA now believes it is more reasonable to assume that the file cabinets are used indefinitely. Courtney Kerwin, Director, Regulatory Support Division.

Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Municipal Waste Combustors (40 CFR part 60, subparts Ea and Eb) apply to existing and new facilities with a municipal waste combustor unit capacity greater than 225 megagrams per day of municipal solid waste. In general, all NSPS standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/ operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance with 40 CFR part 60, subparts Ea and Eb. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Owners and operators of municipal waste combustor units. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart Ea and Eb). Estimated number of respondents: 22 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, quarterly, semiannually, and annually. Total estimated burden: 32,600 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $3,320,000 (per year), which includes $197,000 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment decrease in the total estimated burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This decrease is not due to any program changes. The decrease in burden from the most-recently approved ICR is due to more accurate estimations in both the number of new and existing sources. The number of new sources is revised down from one to zero as there is no indication of any new MWC facilities being constructed over the next three years. The number of existing sources subject to 40 CFR part 60, subpart Ea has been revised from the most-recently approved ICR to reflect E:\FR\FM\27JAN1.SGM 27JAN1 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 18 / Thursday, January 27, 2022 / Notices the closure of one facility.

The telephone number for the Docket Center is 202–566–1744. For additional information about EPA’s public docket, visit: https:// www.epa.gov/dockets. Abstract: Owners and operators of sewage sludge incineration units are required to comply with reporting and record keeping requirements for the General Provisions (40 CFR part 60, subpart A), as well as for the applicable standards in 40 CFR part 60, subpart MMMM and 40 CFR part 62 subpart LLL. This includes submitting initial notifications, performance tests and periodic reports and results, and maintaining records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These reports are used by the EPA to determine compliance with the standards. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Owners and operators of existing sewage sludge incinerators. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart MMMM and 40 CFR part 62, subpart LLL). Estimated number of respondents: 86 (total). Frequency of response: Semiannually, annually. PO 00000 Frm 00047 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 4237 Total estimated burden: Respondent burden is 32,800 hours (per year), while the State/local agency burden for administering the same rule is 1,880 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: Respondent cost is $5,230,000 (per year); this sum includes $1,350,000 annualized capital/ startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. State/local agency cost is $106,000 (per year). Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in burden from the mostrecently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens for respondents. This situation is due to two considerations: (1) The regulations have not changed over the past three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three years; and (2) the growth rate for this industry is very low or nonexistent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden. Since there are no changes in the regulatory requirements and there is no significant industry growth, there are also no changes in the capital/startup and/or operation and maintenance (O&M) costs. This ICR also adjusts the number of respondents subject to the requirements of Subpart MMMM which are implemented under State plans and a Federal Plan to incorporate the burden associated with the Federal Plan. The Federal Plan was finalized at 40 CFR part 62, subpart LLL on April 29, 2016. As of June 3, 2021, the EPA data and the listing of approved State plans in the eCFR indicates that 9 State and local agencies enforce the State plans and the remainder of these SSI units will be covered by the Federal Plan. The burden on State and local agencies is included in respondent burden in this ICR, and is similar to the Agency burden in the previous ICR. Courtney Kerwin, Director, Regulatory Support Division.
