Air Stationary Source Compliance and
Enforcement Information Reporting is an activity whereby State,
Local, Tribal, Territorial and Commonwealth governments (hereafter
referred to as "delegated agencies") report air stationary source
compliance and enforcement information to the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (the EPA or the Agency) on a regular basis. The
information is provided to the EPA via input to the Integrated
Compliance Information System (ICIS). ICIS replaced the Air
Facility System (AFS) as the database of record for this
information. The modules within ICIS that are used to report Air
related data are collectively referred to as ICIS-Air. ICIS
contains compliance and enforcement information on thousands of
facilities regulated under numerous federal statutes including the
Clean Water Act – National Pollutant Discharge and Elimination
System (NPDES) program. The majority of delegated agencies maintain
their own data systems and extract data from it and report it to
ICIS either electronically or manually. A small number of delegated
agencies use ICIS as their only data system. The information
provided to the EPA includes source information, compliance
monitoring activities, violation determinations, and enforcement
activities. The EPA uses this information to assess the health of
the compliance and enforcement program established under the Clean
Air Act (CAA).
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).

the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
