Proposed Information Collection Request; Comment Request; Federal 
Implementation Plans Under the Clean Air Act for Indian Reservations in 
Idaho, Oregon and Washington

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is planning to 
submit an information collection request (ICR), ``Proposed Information 
Collection Request; Comment Request; Federal Implementation Plans Under 
the Clean Air Act for Indian Reservations in Idaho, Oregon and 
Washington'' (EPA ICR No. 2020.06, OMB Control No. 2060-0558) to the 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in 
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.). 
Before doing so, EPA is soliciting public comments on specific aspects 
of the proposed information collection as described below. This is a 
proposed extension of the ICR, which is currently approved through 
August 31, 2014. 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.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before May 16, 2014.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, referencing Docket ID No. EPA-R10-OAR-
2013-0788 online using www.regulations.gov (our preferred method), by 
email to R10-Public_Comments@epa.gov, or by mail: EPA Docket Center, 
Environmental Protection Agency, Mail Code 28221T, 1200 Pennsylvania 
Ave. NW., Washington, DC 20460.
    EPA's policy is that all comments received will be included in the 
public docket without change including any personal information 
provided, unless the comment includes profanity, threats, information 
claimed to be Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other 
information whose disclosure is restricted by statute.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Paul Koprowski, Office of Air, Waste 
and Toxics, Oregon Operations Office, Environmental Protection Agency 
Region 10, 805 SW Broadway, Suite 500, Portland, OR 97205; telephone 
number: (503) 326-6363; fax number: (503) 326-3399; email address:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supporting documents which explain in detail 
the information that EPA will be collecting are available in the public 
docket for this ICR. The docket can be viewed online at 
www.regulations.gov or in person at the EPA Docket Center, WJC West, 
Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave. NW., Washington, DC. The telephone 
number for the Docket Center is 202-566-1744. For additional 
information about EPA's public docket, visit http://www.epa.gov/dockets.
    Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, EPA is soliciting 
comments and information to enable it to: (i) Evaluate whether the 
proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper 
performance of the functions of the Agency, including whether the 
information will have practical utility; (ii) evaluate the accuracy of 
the Agency's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of 
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: EPA promulgated Federal Implementation Plans (FIPs) under 
the Clean Air Act for Indian reservations located in Idaho, Oregon, and 
Washington in 40 CFR part 49 (70 FR 18074, April 8, 2005). The FIPs in 
the final rule, also referred to as the Federal Air Rules for Indian 
Reservations in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington (FARR), include 
information collection requirements associated with the partial 
delegation of administrative authority to a Tribe in Sec.  49.122; the 
rule for limiting visible emissions at Sec.  49.124; fugitive 
particulate matter rule in Sec.  49.126, the wood waste burner rule in 
Sec.  49.127; the rule for limiting sulfur in fuels in Sec.  49.130; 
the rule for open burning in Sec.  49.131; the rules for general open 
burning permits, agricultural burning permits, and forestry and 
silvicultural burning permits in Sec. Sec.  49.132, 49.133, and 49.134; 
the rule for emissions detrimental to human health and welfare in Sec.  
49.135; the registration rule in Sec.  49.138; and the rule for non-
Title V operating permits in Sec.  49.139. EPA uses this information to 
manage the activities and sources of air pollution on the Indian 
reservations in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. EPA believes these 
information collection requirements are appropriate because they will 
enable EPA to develop and maintain accurate records of air pollution 
sources and their emissions, track emissions trends and changes, 
identify potential air quality problems, allow EPA to issue permits or 
approvals, and ensure appropriate records are available to verify 
compliance with these FIPs. The information collection requirements 
listed above are all mandatory. Regulated entities can assert claims of

[[Page 14705]]

business confidentiality and EPA will address these claims in 
accordance with the provisions of 40 CFR Part 2, subpart B.
    Form Numbers:
    The forms associated with this ICR are:

EPA Form 7630-1 Nez Perce Reservation Air Quality Permit: Agricultural 
Burn
EPA Form 7630-2 Nez Perce Reservation Air Quality Permit: Forestry Burn
EPA Form 7630-3 Nez Perce Reservation Air Quality Permit: Large Open 
Burn
EPA Form 7630-4 Initial or Annual Source Registration
EPA Form 7630-5 Report of Change of Ownership
EPA Form 7630-6 Report of Closure
EPA Form 7630-7 Report of Relocation

action include owners and operators of emission sources in all industry 
groups and tribal governments, located in the identified Indian 
reservations. Categories and entities potentially affected by this 
action are expected to include:
