Abstract: EPA promulgated Federal Implementation Plans (FIPs) under the Clean Air Act for Indian reservations located in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington in 40 CFR part 49 (70 FR 18074, April 8, 2005). The FIPs in the final rule, also referred to as the Federal Air Rules for Indian Reservations in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington (FARR), include information collection requirements associated with the partial delegation of administrative authority to a Tribe in Sec. 49.122; the rule for limiting visible emissions at Sec. 49.124; fugitive particulate matter rule in Sec. 49.126, the wood waste burner rule in Sec. 49.127; the rule for limiting sulfur in fuels in Sec. 49.130; the rule for open burning in Sec. 49.131; the rules for general open burning permits, agricultural burning permits, and forestry and silvicultural [[Page 13747]] burning permits in Sec. Sec. 49.132, 49.133, and 49.134; the rule for emissions detrimental to human health and welfare in Sec. 49.135; the registration rule in Sec. 49.138; and the rule for non-Title V operating permits in Sec. 49.139. EPA uses this information to manage the activities and sources of air pollution on the Indian reservations in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. These information collection requirements enable EPA to develop and maintain accurate records of air pollution sources and their emissions, track emissions trends and changes, identify potential air quality problems, allow EPA to issue permits or approvals, and ensure appropriate records are available to verify compliance with these FIPs. Regulated entities can assert claims of business confidentiality and EPA will address these claims in accordance with the provisions of 40 CFR part 2, subpart B. Form Numbers: EPA Form 7630-1 Nez Perce Reservation Air Quality Permit: Agricultural Burn EPA Form 7630-2 Nez Perce Reservation Air Quality Permit: Forestry Burn EPA Form 7630-3 Nez Perce Reservation Air Quality Permit: Large Open Burn EPA Form 7630-4 Initial or Annual Source Registration EPA Form 7630-5 Report of Change of Ownership EPA Form 7630-6 Report of Closure EPA Form 7630-7 Report of Relocation EPA Form 7630-9 Non-Title V Operating Permit Application Form EPA Form 7630-10 Umatilla Indian Reservation: Agricultural Burn Permit Application EPA Form 7630-11 Umatilla Indian Reservation: Forestry Burn Permit Application EPA Form 7630-12 Umatilla Indian Reservation Large Open Burn Permit Application The forms listed above are available for review in the EPA docket. Respondents/affected entities: Respondents or affected entities potentially affected by this action include owners and operators of emission sources in all industry groups and tribal governments, located in the identified Indian reservations. Categories and entities potentially affected by this action are included in the docketed supporting documents. Respondent's obligation to respond: Respondents obligation to respond is mandatory. See 40 CFR 49.122, 49.124, 49.126, 49.130-135, 49.138, and 49.139. Estimated number of respondents: 1,658 (total). Frequency of response: Annual or on occasion. Total estimated burden: 4,215 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). Total estimated cost: $313,301 (per year), includes $0 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in estimates: There is a decrease of 854 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. The decrease in the burden estimate for this collection is based on input from source consultations, supersedence of the provisions of one rule (49.139), and information we have learned about the source universe through implementing the rules since the ICR was updated in 2015.
