Abstract: Under the authority of sections 3004, 3005, 3008 and 3010
of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) as amended, EPA
revised the RCRA hazardous waste permitting program to allow a
``standardized permit.'' The standardized permit is available to
facilities that generate hazardous waste and routinely manage the waste
on-site in non-thermal units such as tanks, containers, and containment
buildings. In addition, the standardized permit is available to
facilities that receive hazardous waste generated off-site by a
generator under the same ownership as the receiving facility and then
store or non-thermally treat the hazardous waste in containers, tanks,
or containment buildings. The RCRA standardized permit consists of two
components: a uniform portion that is included in all cases, and a
supplemental portion that the director of a regulatory agency includes
at his or her discretion. The uniform portion consists of terms and
conditions relevant to the unit(s) at the permitted facility and is
established on a national basis. The supplemental portion imposes site-
specific permit terms and conditions that the director determines
necessary to institute corrective action under Sec. 264.101 (or state
equivalent), or otherwise necessary to protect human health and the
environment. Owners and operators have to comply with the terms and
conditions in the supplemental portion, in addition to those in the
uniform portion.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected by
this action are private businesses or other for-profit enterprises.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Required to obtain or retain
benefits (40 CFR 270.275).
Estimated number of respondents: 1.
Frequency of response: once every 10 years.
Total estimated burden: 22 hours per year. Burden is defined at 5
CFR 1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $185 (per year), includes $53 annualized
capital or operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 196 hours in the
total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently
approved by OMB. This decrease is due to adjustments to the estimates.
Courtney Kerwin,
Deputy Director, Data and Enterprise Programs Division.
