    Title: Enforcement Policy Regarding the Sale and Use of Aftermarket 
Catalytic Converters (EPA ICR #1292.04; OMB #2060-0135). This ICR 
requests renewal of the existing clearance.
    Abstract: Manufacturers who recondition used catalytic converters 
and who manufacture replacement catalytic converters must submit semi-

catalysts. For each catalyst line, the Agency requires information 
concerning the catalysts' design, testing and warranty as well as the 
make, model and year of the vehicle(s) in which the catalyst may be 
installed. The EPA uses this information in enforcing its policies on 
the sale and use of aftermarket catalytic converters.
    Burden Statement: The public reporting and recordkeeping burden for 
this collection of information is estimated to average 4 hours per 
respondent, including time for reviewing instructions, testing, 
searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data 
needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information.
    Respondents: manufacturers, reconditioners and installers of 
aftermarket catalytic converters.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 17,020.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 65,288.
