This information collection request is approved for three years. When EPA resubmits this ICR for renewal the agency should revisit the estimate of the number of respondents to ensure that it is consistent with EPA's experience. EPA should specifically revisit its assumption that an equal amount of facilities will go off-line as on-line in a given year.
