The revisions to
this ICR associated with the proposed rule to modify the
requirements for Class I well operators in Florida are not
approved. It is not clear that all of the proposed reporting and
record keeping requirements minimize to the extent practicable and
appropriate the burden on persons providing information, as
required in 5 CFR 1320.9(c). In developing the ICR for the final
rule, the agency should review all record keeping and reporting
requirements to ensure that this provision is satisfied.

The U.S. Envirmental Protection Agency
(EPA) is proposing to revise Underground Injection Control (UIC)
requirements for certain Class I municipal injection wells in
Florida. The proposal would require additional monitoring,
analysis, demon- stration, reporting and recordkeeping to ensure
compliance with the UIC portion of the Safe Drinking Water Act
(SDWA). The proposal includes two operational optionals in an
effort to assist Class I municipal injection well operators in
meeting SDWA requirements.

the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;

benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
