This ICR is
approved for three years. This ICR assumes that no new sources will
report to EPA during the next three years. Before resubmission of
this ICR for extension, the agency should revisit the estimate of
the number of new glass manufacturing plants and demonstrate to OMB
that the estimates are consistent with agency experience. Further,
the agency should revise wage estimates to reflect guidance
provided by EPA and/or OMB.
