Tank (UST) systems, as may be
necessary, to protect human health and
the environment, and procedures for
approving state programs in lieu of the
federal program. EPA promulgated
technical and financial requirements for
owners and operators of USTs at 40 CFR
part 280, and state program approval
procedures at 40 CFR part 281. This ICR
is a comprehensive presentation of all
information collection requirements
contained at 40 CFR parts 280 and 281.
The data collected for new and
existing UST system operations and
financial requirements are used by
owners and operators and/or EPA or the
implementing agency to monitor results
of testing, inspections, and operation of
UST systems, as well as to demonstrate
compliance with regulations. EPA
believes strongly that if the minimum
requirements specified under the
regulations are not met, neither the
facilities nor EPA can ensure that UST
systems are being managed in a manner
protective of human health and the
environment.
EPA uses state program applications
to determine whether to approve a state
program. Before granting approval, EPA
must determine that programs will be
no less stringent than the federal
program and contain adequate
enforcement mechanisms.
Form Numbers: 600–25; 7530–1.
Respondents/affected entities:
Facilities that own and operate
underground storage tanks (USTs),
states that implement the UST
programs, and tribes.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (40 CFR part 280).
Estimated number of respondents:
193,876.
Frequency of response: Once, on
occasion, annual.
Total estimated burden: 8,332,975
hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5
CFR 1320.03(b)
Total estimated cost: $689,689,686
(per year), includes $406,006,490
annualized capital and operation &
maintenance costs.
Changes in Estimates: There is a
decrease of 389,217 hours in the total
estimated respondent burden hours
compared with the ICR currently
approved by OMB. There is a total
decrease in burden hours because the
overall number of underground storage
tanks decreased while the requirements
for each tank owner remained the same.
