Abstract: This information collection will provide the EPA with
necessary information about the operations of drum reconditioners and
similar facilities that clean out and recondition used industrial
containers. The Agency needs this information to determine whether
future regulatory or non-regulatory action is needed to address
environmental issues identified in the EPA's Drum Reconditioner Damage
Case Report, published in September 2022. The data collected through
this ICR will advance the Agency's mission of protecting human health
and the environment by determining the current engineering controls and
standard practices employed at these facilities, and by collecting
additional information about the environmental impacts these facilities
may have on surrounding communities and the wider environment. All
information submitted to the agency in response to the ICR that is
claimed as confidential will be managed in accordance with applicable
laws and EPA's regulations governing treatment of confidential business
information at 40 CFR part 2, subpart B. Any information determined to
constitute a trade secret will be protected under 18 U.S.C. 1905.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: This ICR applies to all facilities
engaged in drum and/or industrial container reconditioning and/or
recycling.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory under section 3007 of
RCRA (42 U.S.C. 6927).
Estimated number of respondents: 216 (total).
Frequency of response: One-time response.
Total estimated burden: 1,333 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $136,000 (per year), which includes $0
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: Not applicable; this is a new ICR, so
there is no previous burden.

Director, Information Engagement Division.
