This ICR is
approved for two years. When EPA resubmits this ICR for renewal,
the Agency should be certain to provide a detailed description
explaining any change in burden from the existing ICR and should
supplement that with a comparison to the original 1997 ICR burden
and cost estimates. In addition, EPA should comply with the terms
of clearance provided in the 1998 approval of this package. Those
terms read as follows: When resubmitting this ICR for renewal, the
Agency should re-evaluate the burden estimate of the Compliance
Assurance Monitoring (CAM) program to reflect actual implementation
of hte program. The re-evaluation should include an analysis of the
effectiveness of the program, the merits of adjusting the focus of
the program, and if appropriate, the renewal package should provide
a discussion of next steps for making adjustments to the
program.
