Download as PDF ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 226 / Friday, November 22, 2024 / Notices Convention. EPA seeks to enhance its current information on how much mercury is used, in which products and manufacturing processes, and whether certain products are manufactured domestically, imported, or exported. Reporting is required from any person who manufactures (including imports) mercury or mercury-added products, as well as any person who otherwise intentionally uses mercury in a manufacturing process under TSCA section 8(b). The Agency promulgated reporting requirements at 40 CFR part 713. To avoid duplication, EPA coordinated the reporting with the Interstate Mercury Education and Reduction Clearinghouse (IMERC). Form number: 9600–024. Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected are those that manufacture (including import) mercury, manufacture (including import) mercury containing products, and those who intentionally use mercury in a manufacturing process. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory, per TSCA section 8(b) and 40 CFR 713. Estimated number of respondents: 105 (total). Frequency of response: Triennial. Total estimated burden: 2,573 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $223,592 (per year), which includes $0 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 14,775 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This decrease reflects a change in EPA’s method of estimating the number of expected reports. In 2021, EPA amended the original final rule to effectuate the vacatur ordered by the Second Circuit Court. In this ICR, with data available from the Mercury Inventory and with no new changes to the rule itself, this ICR utilizes data from the Reporting Year 2021 of the Mercury Inventory. In the RY 2021, there were 105 submissions (the previous ICR used an estimate of 252). This ICR assumes each respondent completes the entire form. Wages were also updated to 2022 dollars. This change is an adjustment.

Abstract: Section 609 of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 (Act) provides general guidelines for the servicing of motor vehicle air conditioners (MVACs). It states that ‘‘no person repairing or servicing motor vehicles for consideration may perform any service on a motor vehicle air conditioner involving the refrigerant for such air conditioner without properly using approved refrigerant recycling equipment and no such person may perform such service unless such person has been properly trained and certified.’’ In 1992, EPA developed regulations under section 609 that were published in 57 FR 31240 and codified at 40 CFR part 82 subpart B (section 82.30 et seq.). The information required to be collected under the section 609 regulations is: approved refrigerant PO 00000 Frm 00066 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 handling equipment; approved independent standards testing organizations; technician training and certification; and certification, reporting and recordkeeping. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: The following is a list of NAICS codes for organizations potentially affected by the information requirements covered under this ICR. It is meant to include any establishment that may service or maintain motor vehicle air conditioners. 4411 Automobile Dealers 4413 Automotive Parts, Accessories, and Tire Stores 44711 Gasoline Stations with Convenience Stores 8111 Automotive Repair and Maintenance 811198 All Other Automotive Repair and Maintenance Other affected groups include independent standards testing organizations and organizations with technician certification programs. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR 82.36, 82.38, 82.40, 82.42). Estimated number of respondents: 53,147. Frequency of response: On occasion, biennially, only once. Total estimated burden: 4,666.5 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b) hours (per year). Total estimated cost: $250,163.29 (per year), includes $0 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of about 502 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB (EPA–HQ–OAR–2021–0040). This increase is due to a revision in the estimate of the total annual number of technicians certified under 40 CFR part 82 (40,000/year in 2021 to 47,000/year in 2024), and an increase in the number of motor vehicle repair establishments in the United States (165,800 in 2021 to about 170,000 in 2024).
