Abstract: This ICR covers the collection of information from those organizations that receive cooperative agreements from EPA under the authority of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) as amended by the Brownfields Utilization, Investment, and Local Development (BUILD) Act (P.L. 115-141). Subtitle A of CERCLA, as amended authorizes EPA to award grants or cooperative agreements to states, tribes, local governments, and other eligible entities to support the assessment and cleanup of brownfields properties, and subtitle C authorizes a noncompetitive $50 million program to establish and enhance state and tribal response programs. The authority for these financial assistance programs is codified at CERCLA 104(k) and CERCLA 128(a) respectively. Congress appropriates specific amounts of funding for both programs in EPAs State and Tribal Assistance Grant account. With this ICR, EPAs Office of Brownfields and Land Revitalization (OBLR) seeks authorization to collect information from cooperative agreement recipients (recipients) using several standard forms that will streamline the data collection effort and improve the quality of information collected. The information collected under this ICR supplements the minimum reporting and record keeping requirements that recipients are subject to under 2 CFR Part 200 and 2 CFR Part 1500. EPA estimates that all respondents who voluntarily respond to this information collection by electing to participate in the Brownfields program have determined that the expected benefits of participation outweigh any burden associated with preparing the response.
