Terms of Clearance: This collection is approved for three years subject to the following terms and conditions. OMB understands that EPA is preparing a rule that would implement the provisions of section 2 of P.L. 106-40, the Chemical Safety Information, Site Security and Fuels Regulatory Relief Act. Pending promulgation of that rule, EPA shall not require the submission of RMPs by facilities that are covered under 40 CFR part 68 solely because they hold a fuel that EPA intends to remove from the list pursuant to section 2 of P.L. 106-40. EPA should amend this collection when it promulgates the rule pursuant to section 2 of the Act. OMB recommends that in that rule, EPA remove the deregistration requirement for facilities that are no longer covered by 40 CFR part 68 as a result of that rulemaking.
