of
Title
IV
of
the
Toxic
Substances
Control
Act
(
TSCA)(
15
U.
S.
C.
2686,
see
Appendix
1)
requires
the
U.
S.
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(
EPA)
to
promulgate
regulations
requiring
certain
persons
who
perform
renovations
of
target
housing
for
compensation
to
provide
a
lead
hazard
information
pamphlet
(
developed
under
section
406(
a)
of
TSCA)
to
the
owner
and
occupant
of
such
housing
prior
to
commencing
the
renovation.
Target
housing
is
defined
as
any
housing
constructed
prior
to
1978,
except
housing
for
the
elderly
or
persons
with
disabilities
(
unless
any
child
who
is
less
than
six
years
of
age
resides
or
is
expected
to
reside
in
such
housing
for
the
elderly
or
persons
with
disabilities)
or
any
zero­
bedroom
dwelling
(
section
401(
17)
of
TSCA,
15
U.
S.
C.
2681).
Those
who
fail
to
provide
the
pamphlet,
as
required,
may
be
subject
to
both
civil
and
criminal
sanctions
under
section
16
of
TSCA.

Pursuant
to
Title
IV
of
TSCA,
EPA
promulgated
regulations
applicable
to
all
renovations
of
target
housing
performed
for
compensation,
except
as
otherwise
specified,
at
40
CFR
part
745,
subpart
E
(
see
Attachment
2).
Under
these
regulations,
renovators
must
provide
the
owner
and
occupant
of
any
residential
dwelling
unit
or
multi­
family
housing
with
a
lead
hazard
information
pamphlet
(
see
Attachment
3).
After
providing
the
pamphlet
to
the
owner
and
occupant
and
obtaining
written
acknowledgment,
the
renovator
must
keep
acknowledgment
records
on
file
for
three
years
after
completion
of
work.

The
regulations
at
40
CFR
part
745,
subpart
E,
apply
to
any
person
who
performs
renovations
at
target
housing
for
compensation.
However,
a
designated
representative
(
e.
g.,
a
landlord,
rental
property
manager)
may
deliver
the
pamphlet
and
obtain
the
acknowledgment.
When
using
a
designated
representative,
the
renovator
remains
responsible
for
compliance
with
the
regulations
(
63
FR
29914;
June
1,
1998).
For
purposes
of
this
ICR,
EPA
assumes
that
all
activities
associated
with
distribution
of
the
lead
hazard
information
pamphlet
are
undertaken
by
renovators.

This
ICR
examines
the
respondent
paperwork
requirements
and
associated
hour
and
cost
burden
of
the
regulations
at
40
CFR
part
745,
subpart
E.
Sections
1
through
5
of
the
ICR
describe
the
paperwork
requirements
associated
with
the
distribution
of
the
lead
hazard
information
pamphlet
prior
to
commencing
renovations
of
target
housing
for
compensation.
Section
6
estimates
the
annual
hour
and
cost
burden
to
respondents
in
complying
with
these
paperwork
requirements.

Note
that
this
ICR
does
not
address
hour
and
cost
burden
to
recipients
of
the
lead
hazard
information
pamphlet
(
i.
e.,
owners
and
occupants
of
target
housing)
because
the
pamphlet
is
originally
supplied
by
the
Federal
government.
Under
5
CFR
1320.3(
c)(
2),
"
the
public
disclosure
of
information
originally
supplied
by
the
Federal
government
to
the
[
respondent]
for
the
purpose
of
disclosure
to
the
public
is
not
included"
as
a
"
collection
of
information."
In
addition,
because
the
acknowledgment
of
receipt
obtained
by
the
renovator
only
involves
"
that
burden
necessary
to
identify
the
respondent,
the
date,
the
respondent's
address,
and
the
nature
of
the
instrument,"
completion
of
the
acknowledgment
form
by
the
owner
and
occupant
of
the
target
housing
is
not
considered
to
be
"
information"
under
5
CFR
1320.3(
h)(
1).

The
following
paragraphs
describe
the
activities
that
renovators
would
take
under

NEED
FOR
AND
USE
OF
THE
COLLECTION
2(
a)
Need
and
Authority
for
the
Collection
Section
406(
b)
of
Title
IV
of
TSCA
requires
EPA
to
promulgate
regulations
requiring
certain
persons
who
perform
renovations
of
target
housing
for
compensation
to
provide
a
lead
hazard
information
pamphlet
to
the
owner
and
occupant
of
such
housing
prior
to
commencing
the
renovation.
Regulations
promulgated
under
the
authority
of
section
406(
b)
ensure
that
owners
and
occupants
of
target
housing
are
provided
information
concerning
potential
hazards
of
lead­
based
paint
exposure
before
certain
renovations
are
begun
on
that
housing.
The
Agency
believes
that
the
distribution
of
the
pamphlet
will
help
to
reduce
the
exposures
that
cause
serious
lead
poisonings,
especially
in
children
under
age
six,
who
are
particularly
susceptible
to
the
hazards
of
lead.

2(
b)
Practical
Utility
and
Users
of
the
Data
Owners
and
occupants
of
target
housing
must
be
provided
with
a
lead
hazard
information
pamphlet
before
any
renovation
commences.
Information
contained
in
the
lead
hazard
information
­
4
­
pamphlet
may
be
used
by
owners
and
occupants
of
target
housing
to
take
appropriate
precautions
to
avoid
exposure
to
lead­
contaminated
dust
and
lead­
based
paint
debris
that
are
sometimes
generated
during
renovations.

In
addition,
the
recordkeeping
requirements
under
40
CFR
part
745,
subpart
E
enable
EPA,
State,
and
local
regulators
and
the
courts
to
determine
initial
compliance
and
monitor
continued
compliance
with
the
provisions
of
section
406(
b)
of
TSCA.
The
record
of
compliance
could
also
serve
as
a
crucial
piece
of
information
in
civil
actions
to
establish
liability.

3.
NON­
DUPLICATION,
CONSULTATIONS,
AND
OTHER
COLLECTION
CRITERIA
3(
a)
Non­
Duplication
EPA
has
determined
that
no
other
Federal
agency
collection
satisfies
the
statutory
requirements
of
section
406(
b)
of
TSCA.

3(
b)
Public
Notice
Required
Prior
to
ICR
Submission
to
OMB
In
proposing
to
renew
this
ICR,
EPA
provided
a
60­
day
public
notice
and
comment
period
that
ended
on
March
5,
2001
(
66
FR
105,
January
2,
2001);
see
Attachment
5.
EPA
received
no
comments
during
the
comment
period.

3(
c)
Consultations
Following
the
publication
of
the
proposed
rule,
EPA
received
thirty
comments
during
the
60­
day
comment
period
on
the
proposed
rule.
In
addition,
EPA
has
met
with
key
constituency
groups
to
discuss
the
proposal
and
key
areas
of
concern.
These
groups
include:
The
Alliance
to
End
Childhood
Lead
Poisoning,
the
Institute
of
Real
Estate
Management,
and
the
National
Multi­
Housing
Council.
EPA
has
also
met
with
many
state
and
Tribal
officials
involved
in
the
Forum
on
State
and
Tribal
Toxics
Action
(
FOSTTA),
including
officials
from
California
and
Massachusetts.

3(
d)
Effects
of
Less
Frequent
Collection
Regulations
at
40
CFR
part
745,
subpart
E
do
not
include
any
reporting
requirements,
only
recordkeeping
requirements.
Therefore,
a
collection
schedule
is
not
applicable.

3(
e)
General
Guidelines
This
collection
does
not
exceed
any
of
the
Paperwork
Reduction
Act
guidelines
at
5
­
5
­
CFR
1320.5.

f)
Confidentiality
In
general,
EPA
does
not
believe
that
respondents
will
assert
a
confidentiality
claim
for
information
collected
under
this
ICR.
However,
to
the
extent
information
submitted
by
respondents
is
business
confidential,
procedures
are
in
place
to
protect
the
information
from
improper
disclosure.

Under
40
CFR
745.84,
EPA
has
established
procedures
for
dealing
with
confidential
business
information.
Section
745.84(
a)
provides
that
those
who
assert
a
confidentiality
claim
for
submitted
information
must
provide
EPA
with
two
copies
of
their
submission.
The
first
copy
must
be
complete
and
contain
all
information
being
claimed
as
confidential.
The
second
copy
must
contain
only
information
not
claimed
as
confidential.
EPA
will
place
the
second
copy
of
the
submission
in
the
public
file.

In
addition,
section
745.84(
b)
establishes
that
EPA
will
disclose
information
subject
to
a
claim
of
confidentiality
only
to
the
extent
permitted
by
section
14
of
TSCA
and
40
CFR
part
2,
subpart
B.
If
a
person
does
not
assert
a
claim
of
confidentiality
for
information
at
the
time
it
is
submitted
to
EPA,
EPA
may
make
the
information
public
without
further
notice
to
that
person.

3(
g)
Sensitive
Questions
No
questions
of
a
sensitive
nature
are
included
in
the
information
collection
requirements
associated
with
the
distribution
of
the
lead
hazard
information
pamphlet.

However,
under
the
provisions
of
40
CFR

EPA
may
conduct
inspections
and
issue
subpoenas
pursuant
to
the
provisions
of
TSCA
section

Small
Entity
Flexibility
In
promulgating
the
regulations
at
40
CFR
part
745,
subpart
E,
EPA
attempted
to
minimize
the
reporting
and
recordkeeping
burden
for
both
large
and
small
regulated
entities.
While
small
business
constitute
the
majority
of
affected
entities,
hour
and
cost
burden
imposed
by
the
regulations
is
not
considered
to
be
of
sufficient
magnitude
to
have
significant
economic

ESTIMATING
BURDEN
AND
COST
OF
THE
COLLECTION
6(
a)
Estimating
Respondent
Burden
and
Costs
The
overall
cost
analysis
for
this
rule
was
presented
in
a
Regulatory
Impact
Analysis
(
RIA),
which
is
available
in
the
docket
for
the
final
rule.
The
current
burden
and
costs
estimates
related
to
the
information
collection
components
of
the
final
rule
are
based
on
the
estimates
presented
in
the
RIA
and
updated
using
the
most
recent
data
available.
For
the
ICR
burden
analysis,
individual
respondent
times
(
burden
hours)
for
a
given
activity
were
estimated
from
the
total
number
of
annual
burden
hours
in
that
activity
(
based
on
total
events
or
total
persons
affected
as
reported
in
the
regulatory
analysis)
divided
by
the
estimated
total
number
of
respondents
that
would
potentially
be
affected
by
the
final
rule.

It
is
perhaps
important
to
point
out
that
the
recipients
of
the
pamphlet/
notification,
i.
e.,
the
owners/
occupants,
are
not
required
to
do
anything
under
this
final
rule.
As
specified
by
the
OMB's
regulations
implementing
the
Paperwork
Reduction
Act,
the
Agency
is
not
required
to
include
the
burdens
associated
with
the
Renovator's
provision
of
the
pamphlet
to
the
owner/
occupant,
or
the
owner/
occupant's
completion
of
the
receipt/
acknowledgment.
Since
the
pamphlet
that
the
Renovator
must
provide
to
the
owner/
occupant
under
TSCA
section
406(
b)
is
originally
supplied
by
the
Federal
government,
this
activity
is
not
considered
to
be
a
"
collection
of
information"
under
5
CFR
1320.3(
c)(
2),
which
states
that
"
the
public
disclosure
of
information
originally
supplied
by
the
Federal
­
15
­
government
to
the
[
Respondent]
for
the
purpose
of
disclosure
to
the
public
is
not
included"
as
a
"
collection
of
information."

In
addition,
since
the
receipt/
acknowledgment
obtained
by
the
Renovator/
Manager
only
involves
"
that
burden
necessary
to
identify
the
respondent,
the
date,
the
respondent's
address,
and
the
nature
of
the
instrument,"
the
Agency
is
not
required
to
include
the
burden
associated
with
the
owner/
occupant's
completion
of
the
receipt/
acknowledgment.
The
receipt
is
not
considered
to
be
"
information"
under
5
CFR
1320.3(
h)(
1).

This
ICR,
therefore,
presents
the
estimated
annual
burden
and
associated
annual
costs
for
the
following
information
collection
components
of
the
final
rule:

T
Start­
up
­
Renovator
and
Owner/
Managers
of
Rental
Housing
doing
their
own
renovation,
must
read
and
learn
the
new
requirements.
However,
since
renovators
and
rental
property
have
already
encountered
this
burden,
start­
up
costs
in
this
ICR
are
only
calculated
for
new
entrants
to
the
market
to
read
and
learn
the
requirements.
T
Prepare
Information
­
Renovators
and
Owner/
Managers
of
Rental
Housing
doing
their
own
renovation,
must
obtain
the
required
pamphlet,
prepare
the
required
certification
form,
and
prepare
the
required
notification
to
tenants
of
renovation
activities
in
the
common
areas
of
multi­
unit
target
housing.
Renovators
and
Owners/
Managers
are
also
required
to
prepare,
sign,
and
date
a
statement
describing
the
steps
performed
to
notify
occupants
of
the
intended
common
area
renovation
activities.
T
Provide
Information
­
Renovators
and
Owner/
Managers
of
Rental
Housing
doing
their
own
renovation,
must
provide
the
owner/
occupant
with
a
copy
of
the
pamphlet,
and
document
receipt
by
having
the
owner/
occupant
sign
the
receipt/
acknowledgment.
In
the
case
of
the
notification,
Renovators
and
Owner/
Managers
of
Rental
Housing
doing
their
own
renovation,
must
provide
notification
to
tenants
of
renovation
activities
in
common
areas
of
multi­
unit
target
housing.
T
Maintain
Records
­
Renovators
and
Owner/
Managers
of
Rental
Housings
doing
their
own
renovation,
must
retain
the
documentation
of
distribution,
e.
g.,
certification
by
owner/
occupant.

Under
the
final
rule,
Renovators
and
Owners/
Rental
Property
Managers
(
when
performing
renovation
work)
are
required
to
fulfill
various
responsibilities
relating
to
the
disclosure
of
the
possible
presence
of
lead­
based
paint
and
associated
hazards
in
properties
on
which
renovation
work
is
to
be
performed.
The
estimated
number
of
respondents
affected
annually
is
based
on
the
total
number
of
establishments
identified
as
renovation
contractors
and
rental
property
management
firms
in
Census
Bureau
data
for
1997
(
County
Business
Patterns,
1999).
The
estimated
number
of
renovators,
as
well
as
the
number
of
new
entrants
to
the
occupation
in
future
years,
is
based
on
the
number
of
Construction
Contractors
and
Managers
listed
in
Bureau
of
Labor
Statistics
data
for
the
year
1998
(
Occupational
Employment,
Training,
and
Earnings
Data,
1998).
The
number
of
rental
property
managers
and,
as
well,
the
annual
number
of
new
entrants
are
also
taken
from
Department
of
Labor
data
for
the
­
16
­
occupational
category,
Property
and
Real
Estate
Managers
(
Occupational
Employment,
Training,
and
Earnings
Data,
1998).
The
total
number
of
respondents,
i.
e.
renovators
and
rental
property
managers,
including
new
entrants,
estimated
for
this
ICR
is
3,046,000.

The
annual
number
of
renovation
events
in
owner­
occupied
target
housing
is
estimated
to
be
10,678,100
units.
This
number
is
estimated
from
the
pre­
1979
owner­
occupied
units
less
the
zero
bedroom
units
not
subject
to
the
rule
(
American
Housing
Survey
data,
HUD,
1997),
and
the
estimated
annual
number
of
paid
renovation
events
per
year
per
unit
of
housing
(
estimated
by
dividing
total
dollar
outlays
for
renovation
events
subject
to
regulation
[
obtained
from
the
supplement
to
the
Census
publication
Expenditures
for
Residential
Improvements
and
Repairs,
1999]
by
unit
costs
for
renovation
activities
[
obtained
from
the
National
Association
of
Home
Builders
publication
Profile
of
the
Remodeler
1992
and
inflated
to
1999
dollar
values]).
The
annual
number
of
renovation
events
in
rental
target
housing,
which
is
estimated
to
be
4,470,723
units,
is
based
on
the
total
pre­
1979
rental
units
less
zero­
bedroom
units
not
subject
to
the
rule
(
American
Housing
Survey
data,
HUD,
1997),
and
the
estimated
annual
number
of
paid
renovation
events
per
year
per
unit
of
housing
(
estimated
using
same
sources
cited
above
for
owner­
occupied
housing).

Obviously,
not
all
renovation
contractors
or
owner/
managers
of
rental
housing
will
be
initiating
a
renovation
activity
that
is
covered
by
this
rule
each
year,
nor
will
all
of
the
target
housing
or
rental
properties
that
are
subject
to
the
rule
have
renovation
activities
initiated
each
year.
At
this
time,
however,
it
is
not
possible
to
determine
how
many
renovation
activities
will
occur
each
year,
or
how
many
of
those
will
be
subject
to
this
rule.
EPA
believes
that
it
is
reasonable
to
assume
that
100%
of
the
units
involved
in
renovation
activities
in
target
housing
will
be
required
to
take
an
action
in
accordance
with
the
final
rule,
and
that
the
action
taken
for
each
event
involves
the
personal
delivery
by
renovators
and
owners/
managers
of
a
notification
or
pamphlet
directly
to
the
tenant/
occupant,
the
obtaining
of
a
certification/
receipt,
and
recordkeeping.
As
such,
it
is
not
necessary
to
include
separate
burden
or
cost
estimates
for
the
alternate
delivery
methods,
which
are
already
captured
by
the
burden
estimate
provided
by
the
assumed
100%
compliance
with
personal
delivery.

The
required
activity
differs
for
renovation
activities
in
rental
housing
between
activities
involving
the
individual
unit
and
activities
involving
the
common
areas.
Renovation
events
occurring
in
individual
rental
units
require
renovators
to
prepare
certification
forms
for,
distribute
pamphlets
to,
and
obtain
acknowledgments
from,
both
the
owner
and
the
tenant
of
the
unit.
On
the
other
hand,
when
renovation
events
take
place
in
common
areas
these
activities
(
prepare
certification
form,
distribute
pamphlet,
obtain
acknowledgment)
apply
only
to
owners
of
the
unit.
For
occupants
affected
by
common
area
renovations,
renovators
are
required
to
ensure
written
notification
of
the
intended
renovation
activity
and,
if
requested,
make
the
pamphlet
available
to
any
tenants
making
such
a
request.
The
renovator
must
also
document
this
disclosure
activity
by
preparing
a
written
statement
describing
the
steps
performed
to
notify
all
occupants
of
the
intended
renovation
activities.
In
this
ICR
costs
for
providing
pamphlets
to
tenants
affected
by
common
area
renovations
are
not
included
because
property
owners
will
likely
post
copies
of
the
pamphlet
in
common
areas,
thereby
making
them
available
to
any
­
17
­
interested
tenants.
For
individual
units,
the
RIA
indicates
that
the
majority
of
renovation
activities
involving
the
individual
unit
actually
occur
between
tenants
and
while
the
unit
is
vacant.
As
such,
EPA
estimates
that
only
approximately
one
fourth
of
the
rental
property
renovations
will
occur
in
the
individual
unit
(
1,117,681
units).

Estimates
for
time
requirements
incurred
by
respondents
in
complying
with
the
various
activities
are
based
on
conversations
with
renovation
contractors,
building
trades
groups,
and
rental
property
owners
and
managers.
The
costs
of
time
for
renovation
contractors
(
which
is
$
29.36/
hour)
and
rental
property
managers
(
which
is
$
24.65/
hour)
are
based
on
the
average
hourly
earnings
for
July,
2000,
for
the
Construction
category
and
the
Finance,
Insurance
and
Real
Estate
category,
respectively
(
data
extracted
from
the
National
Employment,
Hours,
and
Earnings
series,
Bureau
of
Labor
Statistics
website,
September,
2000).

The
Agency's
estimated
burden
hours
and
costs
for
the
information
collection
activities
contained
in
this
rule
are
summarized
below
and
presented
in
the
attached
tables.

Start­
Up
Burden
­
The
start­
up
or
first
year
burden
involves
the
time
and
cost
required
to
read
and
learn
the
disclosure
rule's
requirements
and
set
up
procedures
for
meeting
those
requirements.
Since
start­
up
costs
are
greatest
in
the
first
year
following
promulgation,
the
individual
start­
up
burden
was
estimated
for
renovators
and
rental
property
managers
performing
renovation
activities
in
the
1998
ICR.
In
the
1998
ICR,
EPA
had
taken
the
total
burden
associated
with
the
first
year
of
implementing
this
final
rule
and
annualized
it
over
the
next
three
years.
These
burdens
and
costs
have
been
removed
from
the
current
ICR.
EPA
believes
this
revised
ICR
need
not
include
start­
up
costs
since
they
have
already
been
encountered
by
renovators
and
rental
property
managers.
The
only
start­
up
costs
considered
are
those
for
new
entrants
to
these
occupations.
(
See
Table
1).

Preparation
and
the
Provision
of
the
Information
­
The
burden
under
this
activity
section
involves
the
time
and
cost
for
preparing
and
providing
the
information
needed
to
perform
the
disclosure
activities
in
conjunction
with
the
renovation
of
target
housing
as
specified
by
the
rule.
In
essence,
this
includes
the
following
activities:

­
Preparing
certification
Form
for
all
Owner/
Occupants
­
Preparing
certification
Form
for
all
Owners
of
rental
units
(
1­
unit
and
common
area)
­
Preparing
certification
Form
for
1­
unit
occupant
­
Preparing
and
delivering
the
pamphlet
to
individual
Owner/
Occupants,
owners
of
all
rental
units,
and
1­
unit
rental
occupants
­
Obtaining
acknowledgment
of
the
delivered
pamphlet
from
all
Owner/
Occupants,
owners
of
all
rental
units,
and
1­
unit
rental
occupants
­
Preparing
and
posting
the
Notification
for
common
area
activities
­
Preparing
a
statement
describing
the
steps
performed
to
notify
all
occupants
of
common
areas
of
the
intended
renovation
­
18
­
Since
the
owner/
occupant
activities,
i.
e.,
receiving
the
pamphlet
and
signing
the
certification/
acknowledgment
of
receipt,
do
not
need
to
be
included
in
the
estimate
(
see
earlier
discussion),
EPA
has
only
estimated
the
burden
for
those
activities
of
the
renovator/
manager
in
this
transaction.
Specifically,
the
renovator/
manager
must
prepare
the
appropriate
document,
make
sufficient
copies,
distribute
the
information,
and
obtain
the
acknowledgments.
Since
per
event
burden
is
likely
to
vary
greatly,
dependent
upon
such
highly
variable
factors
as
the
method
of
delivery
chosen,
the
frequency
of
this
activity
for
the
individual
manager/
renovator,
the
number
of
events,
experience
and
individual
efficiencies,
EPA
has
attempted
to
simplify
the
estimate
by
making
some
general
assumptions.
These
assumptions
are
likely
to
result
in
an
overall
overestimate,
which
the
Agency
believes
will
help
ensure
that
all
the
variations
in
these
activities
are
covered.

For
the
purposes
of
calculating
the
burden
and
costs,
EPA
has
assumed
100%
of
the
renovation
activities
in
owner
occupied
housing
(
10,678,100),
and
25%
of
rental
property
renovation
activities
(
1,117,681
­
assumed
earlier
as
the
estimated
number
of
renovation
events
taking
place
in
the
individual
unit)
will
involve
the
preparation
of
a
certification
form.
In
addition,
certification
forms
will
also
be
prepared
for
100%
of
owners
of
rental
units
(
4,470,723).
EPA
has
also
assumed
that
100%
of
the
renovation
activities
in
rental
housing
will
involve
the
notification.
In
addition,
EPA
has
provided
average
burden
estimates,
i.
e.,
since
the
burden
calculations
for
the
certificate
and
notification
are
estimated
to
be
about
2
minutes
to
prepare
the
document
for
the
first
event,
and
less
than
1
minute
to
copy
that
document
for
subsequent
distribution,
EPA
has
used
the
estimated
2
minutes
per
event.

The
renovator/
manager
is
also
required
to
distribute
the
pamphlet
and
obtain
acknowledgments
from
all
owner
occupants
(
10,678,100),
all
owners
of
rental
units
(
4,470,723),
and
individual
unit
rental
occupants
(
1,117,681).
As
explained
in
the
final
rule
preamble,
EPA
has
provided
ample
flexibility
to
the
renovator/
manager
for
their
distribution
of
the
pamphlet
or
notification.
Since
the
renovator/
manager
will
already
visit
the
site
on
more
than
one
occasion
to
complete
the
contract
transaction,
evaluate
the
site
for
estimate
purposes,
deliver
material
and
the
like,
EPA
believes
that
personal
delivery,
i.
e.,
distribution
of
the
pamphlet
or
notification,
is
likely
to
be
combined
with
one
of
these
other
activities.
Since
the
manager/
renovator
must
obtain
the
acknowledgment
from
the
recipient
when
the
information
is
provided,
this
activity
will
also
occur
at
this
time.
EPA
estimates
that
this
transaction
may
take
less
than
1
minute,
and
no
more
than
4
minutes.
For
the
ICR,
EPA
has
used
an
average
estimate
of
2
minutes
per
event
for
these
calculations.
By
assuming
that
all
recipients
will
provide
the
acknowledgment,
and
given
the
overestimate
in
the
number
of
events,
EPA
believes
that
this
estimate
also
covers
those
situations
in
which
the
manager/
renovator
may
need
to
provide
a
selfcertification
for
failed
deliveries.
Furthermore,
EPA
did
not
take
any
credits
or
reductions
to
reflect
the
potential
exemptions.

As
noted
above,
renovation
activities
taking
place
in
the
common
area
also
require
the
preparation
of
a
statement
describing
the
steps
performed
to
notify
each
occupant
of
the
intended
renovation.
For
this
requirement,
EPA
is
assuming
a
time
estimate
of
5
minutes
per
event.
(
See
Table
1.)
2
These
numbers
have
been
rounded.

3
Total
average
burdens
were
estimated
by
multiplying
total
people/
events
by
per
event
average
burden.

4
Total
costs
were
estimated
by
multiplying
per
event
average
costs
by
pre­
rounded
total
average
burden.

­
19
­
The
time
estimates
are
based
on
conversations
with
renovation
contractors,
building
trades
groups,
and
rental
property
owners
and
managers.
In
determining
the
corresponding
annual
cost,
EPA
used
the
hourly
rate
for
a
renovation
contractor
($
29.36/
hr).

Recordkeeping
Burden
­
The
Recordkeeping
Burden
involves
the
time
and
cost
for
meeting
the
disclosure
rule's
recordkeeping
requirements.
The
individual
recordkeeping
burden
for
renovation
contractors
and
property
managers
performing
renovation
work
is
based
on
the
estimated
total
annual
number
of
renovations
performed
15,148,823
(
10,678,100
+
4,470,723),
and
the
total
amount
of
time
spent
in
the
recordkeeping
activity
(
approximately
5
minutes
per
event).
In
determining
the
corresponding
annual
cost,
EPA
used
the
hourly
rate
for
a
renovation
contractor
($
29.36/
hr).
(
See
Table
1.)

Costs
for
Materials
­
The
costs
associated
with
the
pamphlet,
the
certification
forms,
and
the
notification,
are
all
considered
to
be
capital
costs
and
these
costs
are
not
included
in
the
estimated
burden
and
corresponding
cost
estimate.
The
"
materials"
costs
consist
of
the
cost
for
purchasing
or
duplicating
the
Lead
Hazard
Pamphlets,
and
the
materials
associated
with
the
preparation
of
the
certification
form
and
notifications.
The
Lead
Hazard
Pamphlets
are
16
pages,
printed
front
and
back,
folded
sheet
format
(
i.
e.,
4
sheets
of
standard
sized
paper
per
document).
EPA
believes
that
most
renovators
will
purchase
the
pamphlet
in
bulk,
although
some
may
choose
to
save
money
by
making
their
own
duplicates
of
the
pamphlet.
As
a
conservative
estimate,
EPA
is
assuming
copying
costs
of
$
0.34
for
100%
of
renovators
and
rental
managers.
EPA
assumes
that
all
owner­
occupied
renovation
events
and
rental
renovation
events
taking
place
in
the
individual
unit
will
require
a
copy
of
the
pamphlet.
As
a
result,
the
total
cost
of
pamphlets
incurred
by
renovators
and
property
managers
is
$
5,530,611,
which
was
calculated
using
the
copying
cost
per
pamphlet,
and
the
total
number
of
pamphlets
required
(
16,266,504).

It
is
assumed
that
for
every
renovation
event
there
is
one
copy
of
the
Lead
Warning
Statement
and
signed
acknowledgment
of
disclosure.
Renovators
are
assumed
to
generate
two
document
sets
(
one
for
the
renovator
and
one
for
the
owner),
for
a
total
of
two
copies,
at
approximately
$
0.10
each
page.
EPA
therefore
estimates
that
the
total
cost
for
the
certifications
form
is
$
3,253,301,
based
on
the
cost
per
page
and
the
total
annual
number
of
certifications
required
(
2
x
$
0.10
x
16,266,504).
The
additional
cost
for
the
notification
is
estimated
to
be
$
447,072,
based
on
the
cost
per
page
and
the
total
annual
number
of
renovations
in
the
common
areas
of
target
multi­
unit
housing
($
0.10
x
4,470,723).
The
total
capital
costs
attributed
to
the
information
collection
activity
contained
in
this
final
rule
is
estimated
to
be
$
9,230,985
($
5,530,611
+
$
3,253,301
+
$
447,072).

Reasons
for
Changes
in
Burden
The
last
ICR
(
1998)
included
an
estimated
annual
burden
of
2,331,597
hours
compared
to
2,938,546
annual
burden
hours
for
this
ICR.
This
results
in
an
increase
of
606,949
hours
between
this
ICR
and
the
1998
ICR.
The
costs
have
also
increased
from
$
59,603,279
annually
in
the
1998
to
$
95,464,291
annually
in
this
ICR,
an
annual
increase
of
$
35,861,012.
There
are
several
reasons
for
the
increase
in
costs
and
burdens.
First,
based
on
comments
by
the
public,
five
burden
and
cost
activities
were
either
modified
to
include
additional
parties
or
were
newly
added
in
Table
1.
These
are:
Preparing
certification
Form
for
all
Owners
of
rental
units,
Distribution
of
pamphlet
and
obtaining
acknowledgment
from
Owner/
Occupants,
Distribution
of
pamphlet
and
obtaining
acknowledgment
from
1­
unit
rental
occupants,
Distribution
of
pamphlet
and
obtaining
acknowledgment
from
all
Owners
of
rental
units,
and
Preparing,
signing,
and
dating
a
statement
describing
the
steps
performed
to
notify
all
common
area
occupants
of
the
intended
renovation.
Second,
costs
have
increased
due
to
inflated
wage
data.

Offsetting
some
of
these
cost
and
burden
increases
is
the
decrease
in
the
number
of
renovation
events
used
in
this
ICR's
burden
analysis
compared
to
the
1998
ICR.
The
number
of
renovation
events
taking
place
in
owner
occupied
housing
decreased
by
1,539,000
and
events
in
rental
housing
decreased
by
1,862,000.
This
decrease
resulted
in
a
reduction
in
the
costs
and
burdens
in
this
analysis.
This
decrease
is
due
to
the
changes
in
the
categories
of
renovation
activities
and
expenditures
between
1992
and
1999.
The
data
for
renovation
expenditures
were
taken
from
the
supplement
to
the
Census
Bureau
publication
Expenditures
for
Residential
Improvements
and
Repairs.
This
source
explains
that
data
for
specific
job
types
within
categories
of
improvements
and
repairs
are
not
comparable
to
years
prior
to
1993.
The
changes
resulted
in
a
reduction
of
the
number
of
events
and
individuals
subject
to
the
rule,
thereby
reducing
the
costs
and
burdens
of
this
ICR.

The
total
capital
costs
attributed
to
the
information
collection
activity
is
estimated
to
be
$
9,230,985
which
is
a
net
increase
