This is a
reasonably good justification statement, although a succinct
description of what is covered by this ICR should begin section A.1
or A.2. . The schedule for data collection (p.6) says that "most
regions and states are nearing completion of final strategies".
This ICR should have been submitted for approval BEFORE EPA
required the strategies to be developed.
