Terms of Clearance: This ICR is not approved. It is not clear that all recordkeeping and reporting requirements in the proposed rule have practical utility and reduce to the extent practicable the burden on the public, as required by 5 CFR 1320.9. In addition, commenter AWWA states that the burden is significantly underestimated. As EPA develops the final rule, EPA should ensure that all recordkeeping and reporting requirements have practical utility and minimize burden on the public, and that reasonable burden estimates are provided.
