This

of
a

approved
collection.
Abstract:
Subtitle
I
of
the
Resource
Conservation
and
Recovery
Act
(
RCRA),
as
amended,
requires
that
the
EPA
develop
standards
for
Underground
Storage
Tanks
(
UST)
systems
as
may
be
necessary
to
protect
human
health
and
the
environment,
and
procedures
for
approving
State
programs
in
lieu
of
the
Federal
program.
EPA
promulgated
technical
and
financial
requirements
for
owners
and
operators
of
USTs
at
40
CFR
part
280,
and
State
program
approval
procedures
at
40
CFR
part
281.
This
ICR
is
a
comprehensive
presentation
of
all
information
collection
requirements
contained
at
40
CFR
parts
280
and
281.
The
data
collected
under
40
CFR
part
280
are
used
by
the
owners
and
operators
and/
or
EPA
or
the
implementing
agency
to
monitor
results
of
testing,
inspections,
and
operations
of
UST
systems,
as
well
as
to
demonstrate
compliance
with
regulations.
EPA
believes
strongly
that,
if
the
minimum
requirements
specified
under
the
regulations
are
not
met,
neither
the
facilities
nor
EPA
can
ensure
that
UST
systems
are
being
managed
in
a
manner
protective
of
human
health
and
the
environment.
The
data
collected
under
40
CFR
part
281
are
used
by
EPA
to
determine
whether
to
approve
a
State
program.
Before
granting
approval,
EPA
must
determine
that
programs
will
be
no
less
stringent
than
the
Federal
program
and
contain
adequate
enforcement
mechanisms.
An
agency
may
not
conduct
or
sponsor,
and
a
person
is
not
required
to
respond
to,
a
collection
of
information
unless
it
displays
a
currently
valid
OMB
control
number.
The
OMB
control
numbers
for
EPA's
regulations
are
listed
in
40
CFR
part
9
and
48
CFR
Chapter
15.
