lotter on DSK8BHNXB4PROD with NOTICES1 33724 Federal Register / Vol. 91, No. 107 / Thursday, June 4, 2026 / Notices Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention, Environmental Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave. NW, Washington, DC 20460; telephone number: (202) 566–1205; email address: [email protected]. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a proposed extension of the ICR, which is currently approved through February 28, 2027. An agency may not conduct or sponsor and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. Public comments were previously requested via the Federal Register on December 4, 2025 during a 60-day comment period (90 FR 55866). This notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments. Supporting documents, which explain in detail the information that the EPA will be collecting, are available in the public docket for this ICR. The docket can be viewed online at www.regulations.gov or in person at the EPA Docket Center, WJC West, Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave., NW, Washington, DC. The telephone number for the Docket Center is 202–566–1744. For additional information about EPA’s public docket, visit http://www.epa.gov/ dockets. Abstract: The Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) section 6(e), 15 U.S.C. 2605(e), directs the EPA to regulate the marking and disposal of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). TSCA Section 6(e)(2) bans the manufacturing, processing, distribution in commerce, and use of PCBs in other than a totally enclosed manner. TSCA Section 6(e)(3) establishes a process for obtaining an exemption from the prohibitions on the manufacture, processing, and distribution in commerce of PCBs. This provision requires that EPA must make a finding by rule that such activities will not present an unreasonable risk of injury to health or the environment. In addition, good faith efforts must have been made by the petitioner to develop a chemical substance that does not present an unreasonable risk to replace the PCBs. Exemptions may be granted for a period not to exceed one year. Implementing regulations have been codified in 40 CFR 761. This ICR consolidates the ICR for PCBs, Consolidated Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements currently VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:19 Jun 03, 2026 Jkt 268001 approved by OMB under OMB Control Number 2070–0112, with the currently approved ICR covering the Alternate PCB Extraction Methods and Amendments to PCB Cleanup and Disposal Regulations under OMB Control Number 2050–0230. Upon OMB approval of this ICR, EPA intends to discontinue OMB Control Number 2070–0112. Form Numbers: 6200–025, 7720–12 and 7710–53. Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this ICR include those who currently possess PCB items, PCB-contaminated equipment, or other PCB waste. North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) codes are identified in question 12 of the supporting statement. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory. 40 CFR 761 and TSCA section 6(e). Estimated number of respondents: 97,901 (total). Frequency of response: On occasion. Total estimated burden: 634,681 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). Total estimated cost: $38,169,084 (per year), which includes $5,901 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 626,405 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This vast majority of this increase is a result of program change associated with merging the existing OMB Control Number 2070–0112, (approved by OMB on July 5, 2023) into this OMB Control Number. Minor adjustments net out to a roughly 1% reduction of burden. ACTION: Notice and request for comment. Courtney Kerwin, Deputy Director, Data and Enterprise Programs Division.

General Description of Collection: Incentive compensation practices in the financial services industry contributed to the financial crisis that began in 2007. Bank employees too often were rewarded for increasing short-term revenue or profit without adequate regard to the risks taken to achieve those results. These practices exacerbated the risks and losses at a number of banking organizations and resulted in the misalignment of the interests of employees with the long-term safety and soundness of their organizations. The Federal banking agencies, including the FDIC, have concluded that it is appropriate and urgent that incentive compensation practices be brought under control through issuance of this guidance. Under this Guidance, banks are encouraged to: (i) Have policies and procedures that identify and describe the role(s) of the personnel and units authorized to be involved in incentive compensation arrangements, identify the source of significant risk-related inputs, establish appropriate controls governing these inputs to help ensure their integrity, and identify the individual(s) and unit(s) whose approval is necessary for the establishment or modification of incentive compensation arrangements; (ii) create and maintain sufficient documentation to permit an audit of the organization’s processes for incentive compensation arrangements; (iii) have any material exceptions or adjustments to the incentive compensation arrangements established for senior executives approved and documented by its board of directors; and (iv) have its board of directors receive and review, on an annual or more frequent basis, an assessment by management of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the organization’s incentive compensation system in providing risk taking incentives that are consistent with the organization’s safety and VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:19 Jun 03, 2026 Jkt 268001 soundness. There is no change in the substance or methodology of this information collection. The estimated annual burden has decreased by 418 hours from 4,010 hours in 2023 to 3,592 hours currently, due to a decrease in the number of respondents. Request for Comment Comments are invited on: (a) whether the collections of information are necessary for the proper performance of the FDIC’s functions, including whether the information has practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the estimates of the burden of the information collections, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collections of information on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. All comments will become a matter of public record. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Dated at Washington, DC, on June 2, 2026. Jennifer M. Jones, Deputy Executive Secretary.
