SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supporting documents which explain in detail
the information that the EPA will be collecting are available in the
public docket for this ICR. The docket can be viewed online at
<a href="http://www.regulations.gov">www.regulations.gov</a>. Materials can also be viewed at the Reading Room
located at the EPA Docket Center, WJC West Building, Room 3334, 1301
Constitution Avenue NW, Washington, DC 20004. The Docket Center's hours
of operations are 8:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m., Monday-Friday (except Federal
Holidays). The telephone number for the Docket Center is 202-566-1744.
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 automated electronic, mechanical, or
other technological collection techniques or other forms of information
technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. The
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, the EPA will issue another Federal
Register notice to announce the submission of the ICR to OMB and the
opportunity to submit additional comments to OMB.
Abstract: Section 3005 of Subtitle C of RCRA requires treatment,
storage or disposal facilities (TSDFs) to obtain a permit. To obtain
the permit, the TSDFs must submit an application describing the
facility's operation. There are two parts to the RCRA permit
application--
[[Page 35765]]
Part A and Part B. Part A defines the processes to be used for
treatment, storage, and disposal of hazardous wastes; the design
capacity of such processes; and the specific hazardous wastes to be
handled at the facility. Part B requires detailed site-specific
information such as geologic, hydrologic, and engineering data. In the
event that permit modifications are proposed by the applicant or the
EPA, modifications must conform to the requirements under Sections 3004
and 3005.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected by
this action are private sector and State, Local, or Tribal governments.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (RCRA Section 3005).
Estimated number of respondents: 159.
Frequency of response: On occasion.
Total estimated burden: 20,086 hours per year. Burden is defined at
5 CFR 1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $7,008,865 (per year), which includes
$5,697,625 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in estimates: The burden hours are likely to stay
substantially the same.
Dated: June 3, 2022.
