    Abstract: The collection of information is necessary in order to

exempted under this rule are safely disposed of and that defective 
airbag modules and airbag inflators are not reinserted into vehicles

benefit (sections 2002, 3001, 3002, 3003, 3004, 3006, 3010, and 3017 of 
the Solid Waste Disposal Act).
    Estimated number of respondents: 15,431.
    Frequency of response: On occasion.

annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the estimates: There is an increase of 71 hours in the
