Terms of Clearance: The revisions to this ICR related to the proposed construction and development effluent limitations and guidelines are not approved, however approval continues for the current reporting and record keeping requirements related to the Phase I and Phase II stormwater programs. It is not clear that the additional requirement to keep a site log, including self certification of various regulatory compliance activities,_has practical utility, as required by 5 CFR 1320.9(a), abd reduces to the extent practical and appropriate the burden on persons who must provide information to the agency, as required by_5 CFR 1320.9(c), including small entities. OMB notes that three options have been co-proposed for the rule and that one of the options would continue to rely on the existing site specific regulatory requirements, including the existing record keeping and reporting requirements, such as filing of a Notice of Intent and Notice of Termination and preparation of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, in lieu of additional requirements. If EPA promulgates a final rule that includes additional reporting and record keeping requirements over and above those in the existing program, the agency should clarify in the preamble how these requirements satisfy the provisions of 5 CFR 1320.9.
