Pursuant to the
Paperwork Reduction Act and OMB regulations at 5 CFR 1320, this
collection of information is approved in part and not approved in
part. EPA has failed to demonstrate the practical utility of
receiving reports of all manual discharges and relief valve
discharges within ten days of their occurance. In 1984, when EPA
first requested approval for this ICR, OMB notified the agency that
(1) this provision was not approvable, and (2) pursuant to the
authority of 5 CFR 1320.14(B), OMB required EPA to delete this
requirement. OMB also limited the time of the approval to eight
months (the collection expired in March of 1985). EPA has not yet
deleted this requirement. Therefore, the information required under
40 CFR 61.64 and 61.65 are not approved. All other parts of this
ICR are approved for one year.
