Jkt 259001 Pursuant to PRA section 3506(c)(2)(A) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), EPA specifically solicits comments and information to enable it to: 1. Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Agency, including whether the information will have practical utility. 2. Evaluate the accuracy of the Agency’s estimates of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used. 3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected. 4. 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. In particular, EPA is requesting comments from very small businesses (those that employ less than 25) on examples of specific additional efforts that EPA could make to reduce the paperwork burden for very small businesses affected by this collection. II. What is the information collection activity? Title: Lead Training, Certification, Accreditation and Authorization Activities. EPA ICR No.: 2507.05. OMB Control No.: 2070–0195. ICR status: This ICR is currently approved through February 29, 2024. Under the PRA, an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA’s regulations in title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), after appearing in the Federal Register when approved, are displayed either by publication in the Federal Register or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument, electronic reporting system or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control PO 00000 Frm 00044 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 25401 numbers for certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. Abstract: This ICR covers the information collection activities associated with the reporting and recordkeeping requirements for individuals, firms and state and local government entities conducting leadbased paint (LBP) activities or renovations of target housing and childoccupied facilities (COFs); training providers; and states/territories/tribes/ Alaskan native villages that are promulgated in 40 CFR part 745. Burden statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to range between .2 and 28.5 hours per response. Burden is defined in 5 CFR 1320.3(b). The ICR, which is available in the docket along with other related materials, provides a detailed explanation of the collection activities and the burden estimate that is only briefly summarized here: Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this ICR include persons who are engaged in LBP activities and/or perform renovations of target housing or COFs for compensation, dust sampling, or dust testing; or who perform LBP inspections, lead hazard screens, risk assessments or abatements in target housing or COFs; or who provide training or operate a training program for individuals who perform any of these activities; or state, territorial or Native American agencies that administer LBP activities and/or renovation programs. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory under TSCA and 40 CFR part 745. Frequency of response: Occasional. Total estimated number of potential respondents: 441,034. Total estimated average number of responses for each respondent: 61.9. Total estimated annual burden: 6,290,360 hours. Total estimated annual costs: $362,279,573. This includes an estimated burden cost of $360,166,618 and an estimated cost of $17,400,556 for capital investment or maintenance and operational costs. III. What are the changes in the estimates from the last approval? There is an increase of 1,039,040 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with that identified in the ICR currently approved by OMB.
