and
the
Sewage
Sludge
Management
Permit
(
OMB
Control
Number
2040
 
0086,
EPA
ICR
Number
0226.17).
This
is
a
request
to
renew
an
existing
approved
collection
that
is
scheduled
to
expire
on
April
30,
2003.
Under
OMB
regulations,
the
Agency
may
continue
to
conduct
or
sponsor
the
collection
of
information
while
this
submission
is
pending
at

Abstract:
This
ICR
calculates
the
burden
and
costs
associated
with
permit
applications
for
National
Pollutant
Discharge
Elimination
System
(
NPDES)
discharges
and
sewage
sludge
management
activities.
EPA
and
States
use
the
data
contained
in
applications
and
supplemental
information
requests
to
set
appropriate
permit
conditions,
issue
permits,
and
assess
permit
compliance.
EPA
maintains
national
applications
information
in
databases,
which
assist
permit
writers
in
determining
permit
conditions.
Depending
on
the
application
form
they
are
using,
applicants
may
be
required
to
supply
information
about
their
facilities,
discharges,
treatment
systems,
sewage
sludge
use
and
disposal
practices,
pollutant
sampling
data,
or
other
relevant
information.
In
its
burden
and
cost
calculations,
this
ICR
includes
requests
for
information
supplemental
to
permit
applications.
Application
information
is
necessary
to
obtain
an
NPDES
or
sewage
sludge
permit.
This
ICR
also
includes
the
development
of
a
storm
water
pollution
prevent
plan
as
part
of
the
requirements
for
the
multisector
general
permit,
for
industrial
activities.
An
agency
may
not
conduct
or
sponsor,
and

person
is
not
required
to

to,

collection
of
information

Burden
Statement:
The
annual
public
reporting
and
recordkeeping
burden
for
this
collection
of
information
is
estimated
to
average
4.8
hours
per
response.
Burden
means
the
total
time,
effort,
or
financial
resources
expended
by
persons
to
generate,
maintain,
retain,
or
disclose
or
provide
information
to
or
for
a
Federal
agency.
This
includes
the
time
needed
to
review
instructions;
develop,
acquire,
install,
and
utilize
technology
and
systems
for
the
purposes
of
collecting,

train

complete

Respondents/
Affected
Entities:
Publicly
owned
treatment

(
POTWs),
privately
owned
treatment
works,
new
and
existing
industrial
manufacturing
and
commercial
discharger,
storm
water
dischargers,
treatment
works
treating
domestic
sewage
(
TWTDS),
and
States
and
territories.
Estimated
Number
of
Respondents:
291,898.
Frequency
of
Response:
On
occasion.
Estimated
Total
Annual
Hour
Burden:
1,398,737
hours.
Estimated
Total
Annual
Cost:
$
53,546,024,
includes
$
0
annualized
capital
or
O&
M
costs.
Changes
in
the
Estimates:
There
is
a
decrease
of
639,957
hours
in
the
total
estimated
burden
currently
identified
in
the
OMB
Inventory
of
Approved
ICR
Burdens.
This
decrease
in
the
applicant
respondent
and
NPDES­
authorized
state
burden
is
due
to
a
reduction
in
the
burden
associated
with
existing
storm
water
permittees
updating
rather
than
developing
Storm
Water
Pollution
Prevention
Plans.
