information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions 
used; (iii) enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (iv) minimize the burden of the 
collection of information on those who are to respond, including 
through the use of appropriate automated electronic, mechanical, or 
other technological collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. EPA 
will consider the comments received and amend the ICR as appropriate. 
The final ICR package will then be submitted to OMB for review and 
approval. At that time, EPA will issue another Federal Register notice 
to announce the submission of the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to 
submit additional comments to OMB.
    Abstract: This ICR is the renewal of the ICR developed for the 
final rule, Accidental Release Prevention Requirements; Risk Management 
Programs Under the Clean Air Act Section 112(r)(7); Distribution of 
Off-Site Consequence Analysis Information. CAA section 112(r)(7) 
required EPA to promulgate reasonable regulations and appropriate 
guidance to provide for the prevention and detection of accidental 
releases and for responses to such releases. The regulations include 
requirements for submittal of a risk management plan (RMP) to EPA. The 
RMP includes information on offsite consequence analyses (OCA) as well 
as other elements of the risk management program.
    On August 5, 1999, the President signed the Chemical Safety 
Information, Site Security, and Fuels Regulatory Relief Act 
(CSISSFRRA). The Act required the President to promulgate regulations 
on the distribution of OCA information (CAA section 112(r)(7)(H)(ii)). 
The President delegated to EPA and the Department of Justice (DOJ) the 
responsibility to promulgate regulations to govern the dissemination of 
OCA information to the public. The final rule was published on August 
4, 2000 (65 FR 48108). The regulations imposed minimal information and 
recordkeeping requirements.
    In accordance with the final rule, the federal government 
established 55 reading rooms at federal facilities geographically 
distributed across the United States and its territories. At these 
reading rooms, members of the public are able to read, but not 
mechanically copy or remove paper copies of OCA information for up to 
10 stationary sources per calendar month. At these reading rooms, the 
members of the

[[Page 59380]]

public may also have access to OCA information that the Local Emergency 
Planning Committee (LEPC) in whose jurisdiction the person lives or 
works is authorized to provide.
    The final rule also authorizes and encourages state and local 
government officials to have access to OCA information for their 
official use, and to provide members of the public with read-only 
access to OCA sections of RMPs for sources located within the 
jurisdiction of the LEPC where the person lives or works and for any 
other stationary sources with vulnerability zones extending into the 
LEPC's jurisdiction.
    EPA also established a Vulnerable Zone Indicator System (VZIS) that 
informs any person located in any state whether an address specified by 
that person might be within the vulnerable zone of one or more 
stationary sources, according to the data reported in RMPs. The VZIS is 
available on the internet. Members of the public who do not have access 
to the internet are able to obtain the same information by regular mail 
request to the EPA.
    Form numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: State and local agencies and the 
public.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Required to obtain or retain a 
benefit (40 CFR 1400).
    Estimated number of respondents: 860 (total).
    Frequency of response: As necessary.
    Total estimated burden: 1,500 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $46,865 (per year), includes $620 annualized 
capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    The Agency is requesting comments on the burden and costs estimated 
in the current ICR. EPA will revise the burden and costs, if necessary, 
prior to submitting the package to OMB for approval for this 
information collection.
