Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Municipal
Solid Waste Landfills (40 CFR part 60, subpart XXX) were promulgated
August 29, 2016 (81 FR 59368) and amended on March 26, 2020 (85 FR
17261). These standards apply to municipal solid waste landfills that
commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after July 17,
2014 with a design capacity threshold of 2.5 million Mg and 2.5 million
cubic meters. This information is being collected to assure compliance
with 40 CFR part 60, subpart XXX.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: Municipal solid waste landfills.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60,
subpart XXX).
Estimated number of respondents: 298 (total).
Frequency of response: Initially and annually.
Total estimated burden: 249,552 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $19,740,398 (per year), which includes
$1,183,287 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 74,252 hours in
the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently
approved by OMB. This increase is due to an increase in the number of
respondents. The increased number of respondents is based on the
assumption that the growth rate will continue to be 2 new sources per
year and 25 modified sources per year that will become subject to this
rule. Similarly, there is an increase in the estimated capital and
operation & maintenance costs due to the increased number of
respondents.

Director, Information Engagement Division.
