Terms of Clearance: This ICR is approved. However, the current submission does not include a form for the waiver certification option for small construction sites. Until this form is approved, operators may apply for the waiver by submitting the following information: 1) name and address of small construction site operator, 2) R factor calculation, including the final calculated R factor for the site, and 3) a signed certification statement that the site meets the eligibility requirements for the waiver, as specified in 40 CFR 122.26(15). Currently, this ICR estimates a burden of 1 hour for preparation of the waiver application. When the final form is completed, EPA should submit it to OMB for approval along with an ICR change worksheet and reconsider whether the burden of 1 hour per form remains appropriate.

Abstract: This ICR calculates the burden and cost associated with the regulation of storm water discharges under Phase II of the NPDES storm water program. Specifically, it calculates the burden of developing and implementing small MS4 storm water permits, small construction (1-5 acres) permits, and submitting a no-exposure certification form (EPA form 3510-11). The ICR also specifies the burden on authorized NPDES States to process and administer the Phase II program.
