Terms of Clearance: This ICR is approved under 5 CFR 1320. According to Part B of the Supporting Statement for this ICR, EPA requires at least 193 completed questionnaires to "satisfy the decision-making needs of the EPA." EPA chose this number to minimize the chances of missing a waste management practice used at only 1 in 20 facilities. Because EPA believes that some of the facilities identified as paint manufacturers in its database may not actually manufacture paint, the Agency will send its questionnaire to 250 facilities to increase the chances of achieving 193 completed surveys. If the Agency determines that the 57 additional facilities are not adequate, it will send questionnaires to a second set of facilities according to the Agency's statistical plan.
