    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

[[Page 17843]]

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 Director, at his 
or her discretion, may also issue a supplemental portion on a case-by-
case basis. The supplemental portion imposes site-specific permit terms 
and conditions that the Director determines necessary to institute 
corrective action under section 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 business or other for-profit.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Voluntary (40 CFR 270.275).
    Estimated number of respondents: 1.
    Frequency of response: One time.
    Total estimated burden: 218 hours per year. Burden is defined at 5 
CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $19,873 (per year), includes $693 annualized 
capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in hour burden 
included in this ICR. There is a slight increase in capital/O&M costs 
due to updated estimates.

Director, Regulatory Support Division.
