OIRA Conclusion Action: Comment filed on proposed rule	Conclusion Date: 11/08/1995

Terms of Clearance: The ICR for the Alternatives for Ground-Water Monitoring at Small and Remote Municpal Solid Waste Landfills is not approved according to 5 CFR 1320. In the proposed rule, EPA requested comment on options relating to alternative monitoring regimes for landfills. Respondents could have different data collection and reporting burdens under the alternatives. However, this ICR did not calculate the different burdens of these options. Since EPA has not demonstrated that the proposed option is the least burdensome approach (see 5 CFR 1320.5(d)(1)(i)), this ICR is not approved.
