ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 9

[FRL-5807-2]


OMB Approval Numbers Under the Paperwork Reduction Act

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Technical amendment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act, this document 
displays the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control numbers 
issued under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) for part 258--Criteria 
for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills.

EFFECTIVE DATE: April 7, 1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Allen J. Geswein, (703) 308-7261.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA is today amending the table of currently 
approved information collection request (ICR) control numbers issued by 
OMB for various regulations. Today's amendment updates the table to 
accurately display those information requirements promulgated under the 
Criteria for Municipal Solid Waste Landfills which appeared in the 
Federal Register on October 9, 1991 (56 FR 51016). The affected 
regulations are codified at 40 CFR part 258. EPA will continue to 
present OMB control numbers in a consolidated table format to be 
codified in 40 CFR part 9 of the Agency's regulations, and in each CFR 
volume containing EPA regulations. The table lists the section numbers 
with reporting and recordkeeping requirements, and the current OMB 
control numbers. This display of the OMB control number and its 
subsequent codification in the Code of Federal Regulations satisfies 
the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et 
seq.) and OMB's implementing regulations at 5 CFR 1320.
    This ICR was previously subject to public notice and comment prior 
to OMB approval. As a result, EPA finds that there is ``good cause'' 
under section 553 (b)(B) and (d)(3) of the Administrative Procedure Act 
(5 U.S.C. 553 (b)(B) and (d)(3)) to amend this table without prior 
notice and comment. Due to the technical nature of the table, further 
notice and comment would be unnecessary.
