SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a
proposed renewal of the original ICR,
which is currently approved through
January 31, 2025. 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.
This notice allows 60 days for public
comments. Supporting documents,
which explain in detail the information
that the EPA will be collecting, are
available in the public docket for this
ICR renewal. The docket can be viewed
online at www.regulations.gov or in
person at the EPA Docket Center, WJC
West, Room 3334, 1301 Constitution
Ave. NW, Washington, DC. 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.
Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the PRA, the EPA is soliciting comments
and information to enable it to: (i)
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; (ii) evaluate the
accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the
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 forms of
information technology. The EPA will
consider the comments received and
amend the ICR renewal as appropriate.
The final ICR renewal package will then
be submitted to OMB for review and
approval. At that time, the EPA will
issue another Federal Register notice to
announce the submission of the ICR
renewal to OMB and the additional
opportunity to submit comments to
OMB.
Abstract: Section 1445(a)(2) of the
Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA)
requires that once every five years,
beginning in 1999, the EPA issue a new
list of not more than 30 priority

unregulated contaminants in drinking
water to be monitored by public water
systems (PWSs). Information collected
under the program informs the EPA’s
decision making regarding whether or
not to regulate particular contaminants
in drinking water. UCMR 5 requires
sample collection for 30 chemical
contaminants and was published in the
Federal Register on December 27, 2021
(86 FR 73131). This information
collection does not require respondents
to disclose confidential information.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: Data
associated with this ICR renewal will be
collected and maintained by PWSs
subject to the rule. UCMR is a federally
implemented program; however, States,
territories, and Tribes (herein after
referred to as ‘‘States’’ for simplicity)
can choose to participate in UCMR 5
implementation through a voluntary
Partnership Agreement with the EPA to
help administer this regulatory program.
Partnering States will sometimes collect
samples and maintain records.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory. The information collection
is carried out per Section 1445(a) of
SDWA.
Estimated number of respondents:
Approximately 3,493 respondents (total
among PWSs and States) participate in
UCMR 5 during the ICR renewal years
2025–2027. There are approximately
10,367 respondents to UCMR 5 during
the full five-year program period.
Frequency of response: The frequency
and number of responses varies across
respondents. PWSs that rely on surface
water and ground water under the direct
influence of surface water will sample
quarterly (four sampling events), and
PWSs that rely on ground water will
sample twice (at 6-month intervals). All
sample collection will take place during
a continuous 12-month period during
the sampling timeframe. Sample
collection for the UCMR 5 contaminants
takes place at the entry point to the
distribution system. The number of
samples collected by PWSs also differs
based on the size of the PWS and the
number of entry points within each
PWS. Over the three ICR renewal years
of 2025 through 2027, the total number
of responses per respondent averages
3.0, or an average of 1.0 responses per
respondent per year.
Total estimated burden: The EPA
estimates the labor burden at 21,275.2
hours (per year) during the ICR renewal
years of 2025 through 2027 for States
and PWSs. Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: During the ICR
renewal years of 2025 through 2027, the
EPA estimates the total cost for States
PO 00000
Frm 00056
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
61113
and PWSs at $5,633,415 (per year),
which includes $4,702,003 annualized
capital or operation & maintenance
costs. The total costs include labor costs
and laboratory analysis (non-labor)
costs. The EPA pays for the analytical
and sample shipping costs for small
PWSs (i.e., serving 10,000 or fewer
people).
Changes in the Estimates: There is a
decrease of 81,579 hours in the total
estimated respondent burden for PWSs
and States during the ICR renewal years
of 2025 through 2027 compared with
the original (2022–2024) ICR currently
approved by OMB. This decrease is due
to:
• Fewer PWSs participate during the
ICR renewal period of 2025–2027 than
in 2022–2024. Only one-third of PWSs
collect samples for UCMR 5
contaminants during the ICR renewal
period (in 2025); two-thirds of PWS
monitored for UCMR 5 contaminants in
2023 and 2024 (i.e., during the 2022–
2024 original ICR period).
• Some initial, pre-monitoring
activities were conducted by all systems
in 2022 (i.e., during the original ICR
period). These activities will not take
place during 2025–2027.
• States are expected to incur less
burden during 2025–2027, since their
support is associated with monitoring
and less monitoring is occuring during
the renewal period.
