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
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses. 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, EPA
will issue another Federal Register
document to announce the submission
of the ICR to OMB and the opportunity
to submit additional comments to OMB.
Abstract: This ICR covers provisions
under the Montreal Protocol on
Substances that Deplete the Ozone
Layer (Montreal Protocol) and Title VI
of the CAA that establish limits on total
U.S. production, import, and export of
class I and class II ozone-depleting
substances (or controlled substances).
Production and import of class I
controlled substances
(chlorofluorocarbons and others) was
phased out in the United States. The
phaseout includes exceptions for
essential uses, critical uses of methyl
bromide, quarantine and pre-shipment
uses of methyl bromide, previously used
material, and material that will be
transformed or destroyed. There are also
regulations that restrict the use of class
II controlled substances and require a
gradual reduction in the production and
consumption of these chemicals leading
to their eventual phaseout. The class II
controlled substance phaseout
regulations include exceptions for
previously used material and material
that will be transformed or destroyed.

138, 5900–139, 5900–152, 5900–472,
5900–154, 5900–146.
Respondents/affected entities:
Producers, importers, exporters, and
certain users of ozone-depleting
substances; methyl bromide applicators,
distributors, and end users including
commodity storage and quarantine
users.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (CAA sections 114, 603(b),
and 604(d)(6)).
Estimated number of respondents:
1,174 (total).
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 256001
Frequency of response: Quarterly,
annually, and as needed.
Total estimated burden: 3,022 hours
(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $375,086 (per
year), includes $8,250 annualized
capital or operation & maintenance
costs.
Changes in estimates: There is an
increase of 82 hours in the total
estimated respondent burden compared
with the ICR currently approved by
OMB. This increase is a result of
updated assumptions associated with
recordkeeping requirements that are
more consistent with other ICRs that
cover similar recordkeeping activities
(e.g., the HFC Allowance Allocation
Program ICR, OMB Control No. 2060–
0734).

Revised Total Coliform Rule. For the
requests to be approved, the EPA must
find the state regulations codified at Ga.
Comp. R. & Regs. r. 391–3–5 to be no
less stringent than the Federal rules
codified at 40 CFR part 141. The EPA
reviewed Georgia’s applications using
the Federal statutory provisions (section
1413 of the Safe Drinking Water Act),
federal regulations (at 40 CFR parts 141
and 142), state regulations, state policies
and procedures for implementing the
rules, regulatory crosswalks, and the
EPA regulatory guidance to determine
whether the requests for revision are
approvable. The EPA determined that
the Georgia regulations are no less
stringent than the corresponding
Federal rules and the revisions
otherwise meet applicable Safe Drinking
Water Act requirements. Therefore, the
EPA intends to approve these revisions.
If the EPA does not receive a timely and
appropriate request for a hearing and
the Regional Administrator does not
elect to hold a hearing on his own
motion, this approval shall become final

Abstract: GreenChill is a voluntary
partnership program sponsored by the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) that encourages food retailers and
manufacturers to adopt cost effective
technologies and practices that reduce
refrigerant emissions and improve
operational efficiency. The GreenChill
Program works with the food retail
industry to lower barriers inhibiting the
implementation of technologies and
practices that reduce refrigerant
emissions. The Program effectively
promotes the adoption of emission
reduction practices and technologies by
engaging GreenChill Partners to set an
annual refrigerant emission reduction
goal and develop a refrigerant
management plan reflecting the
company’s implementation objectives.
Implementation of the Partners’
refrigeration management plan to reduce
refrigerant emissions enhances the
protection of the environment and may
save Partners money and improve
operational efficiency. The GreenChill
Program offers the opportunity for any
individual store to earn GreenChill
Certification at the silver-, gold-,
platinum-, or other level when it
demonstrates that the amount of
refrigerant used is below a specified
limit, based on the store’s million
British Thermal Units per hour (MBTU/
hr) cooling load, and that the refrigerant
emitted from the store in the prior 12
months is below a specified percentage
depending on each GreenChill Store
Certification level. Information
submitted for the certification of
individual stores is compared to these
set criteria for each certification level.
The certification of a store provides the
opportunity for broad recognition
within the food retail industry and with
the store’s customers.
