    Abstract: In order for a State to obtain final authorization for a 
State hazardous waste program or to revise its previously authorized 
program, it must submit an official application to the EPA Regional 
office for approval. The purpose of the application is to enable the 
EPA to properly determine whether the State's program meets the 
requirements of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Sec.  
3006. A State with an approved program may voluntarily transfer program 
responsibilities to EPA by notifying the EPA of the proposed transfer, 
as required by section 40 CFR 271.23. Further, the EPA may withdraw a 
State's authorized program under section 271.23.
    The State shall inform the EPA of any proposed modifications to its 
basic statutory or regulatory authority in accordance with section 
271.21. If a State is proposing to transfer all or any part of a 
program from the approved State agency to any other agency, it must 
notify the EPA in accordance with section 271.21 and submit revised 
organizational charts as required under section 271.6. These paperwork 
requirements are mandatory under RCRA Sec.  3006(a). The EPA will use 
the information submitted by the State in order to determine whether 
the State's program meets the statutory and regulatory requirements for 
authorization.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: State governments.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (RCRA Sec.  3006(a)).
    Estimated number of respondents: 50 (total).
    Frequency of response: Annual.
    Total estimated burden: 13,860 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b)
    Total estimated cost: $499,001 (per year), includes $0 annualized 
capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 6,108 hours in the 
total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently 
approved by OMB. This change is due to a decrease of 8 respondents 
submitting a program change to EPA.
