BILLING CODE 6450-01-M DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Reimbursement for Costs of Remedial Action at Active Uranium and Thorium Processing Sites AGENCY: Department of Energy. ACTION: Notice of the acceptance of Title X claims for reimbursement in fiscal year

(FY)2009. SUMMARY: This Notice announces the Department of Energy

(DOE)acceptance of claims in FY 2008 from eligible active uranium and thorium processing sites for reimbursement under Title X of the Energy Policy Act of 1992. For FY 2008, Congress has appropriated approximately $19.8 million for reimbursement of certain costs of remedial action at these sites. The approved amount of claims submitted during FY 2007 and unpaid approved balances for claims submitted in prior years will be paid by April 30, 2008, subject to the availability of funds. If the available funds are less than the total approved claims, these payments will be prorated, if necessary, based on the amount of available FY 2008 appropriations, unpaid approved claim balances (approximately $5.8 million), and claims received in May 2007 (approximately $26 million). DATES: The closing date for the submission of claims in FY 2008 is May 1, 2008. These new claims will be processed for payment by April 30, 2009, together with unpaid approved claim balances from prior years, based on the availability of funds from congressional appropriations. ADDRESSES: Claims should be forwarded by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, to Mr. David Alan Hicks, Title X Program Manager, U.S. Department of Energy/EMCBC, @ Denver Federal Center, P.O. Box 25547, Denver, Colorado 80225-0547. Two copies of the claim should be included with each submission. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Contact David Mathes at

(301)903-7222 of the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Environmental Management, Office of Disposal Operations. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DOE published a final rule under 10 CFR Part 765 in the **Federal Register** on May 23, 1994, (59 FR 26714) to carry out the requirements of Title X of the Energy Policy Act of 1992 (sections 1001-1004 of Pub. L 102-486, 42 U.S.C. 2296a *et seq.* ) and to establish the procedures for eligible licensees to submit claims for reimbursement. DOE amended the final rule on June 3, 2003, (68 FR 32955) to adopt several technical and administrative amendments (e.g., statutory increases in the reimbursement ceilings). Title X requires DOE to reimburse eligible uranium and thorium licensees for certain costs of decontamination, decommissioning, reclamation, and other remedial action incurred by licensees at active uranium and thorium processing sites to remediate byproduct material generated as an incident of sales to the United States Government. To be reimbursable, costs of remedial action must be for work which is necessary to comply with applicable requirements of the Uranium Mill Tailings Radiation Control Act of 1978 (42 U.S.C. 7901 *et seq.* ) or, where appropriate, with requirements established by a State pursuant to a discontinuance agreement under section 274 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 (42 U.S.C. 2021). Claims for reimbursement must be supported by reasonable documentation as determined by DOE in accordance with 10 CFR Part 765. Funds for reimbursement will be provided from the Uranium Enrichment Decontamination and Decommissioning Fund established at the Department of Treasury pursuant to section 1801 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 (42 U.S.C. 2297g). Payment or obligation of funds shall be subject to the requirements of the Anti-Deficiency Act (31 U.S.C. 1341). Authority: Section 1001-1004 of Public Law 102-486, 106 Stat. 2776 (42 U.S.C. 2296a *et seq.* ). Issued in Washington, DC on this 14th of January, 2008. David E. Mathes, Office of Disposal Operations, Office of Regulatory Compliance. [FR Doc.

For further information about the electronic docket, go to *http://www.regulations.gov.* *Title:* NESHAP for Primary Aluminum Reduction Plants (Renewal) *ICR Numbers:* EPA ICR Number 1767.05, OMB Control Number 2060-0360 *ICR Status:* This ICR is scheduled to expire on February 29, 2008. Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. 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. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the **Federal Register** when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, and displayed either by publication in the **Federal Register** or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. *Abstract:* The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP), for the regulations published at 40 CFR part 63, subpart LL, were proposed on September 26, 1996 and promulgated on October 7, 1997. These standards apply to the owners or operators of new or existing potlines, paste production plants, or anode bake furnaces associated with primary aluminum production and located at a major source, and for each new pitch storage tank associated with a primary aluminum reduction plant that is a major source of hazardous air pollutants

(HAP)emissions. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports. Owners or operators are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all sources subject to NESHAP. Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part shall maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at least five years following the date of such measurements, maintenance reports, and records. All reports are sent to the delegated state or local authority. In the event that there is no such delegated authority, the reports are sent directly to the United States Environmental Protection Agency

(EPA)regional office. *Burden Statement:* The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 2,001 (rounded) hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. *Respondents/Affected Entities:* Owners or operators of primary aluminum reduction plants that are major sources of HAP emissions. *Estimated Number of Respondents:* 16. *Frequency of Response:* Initially, quarterly, semiannually, and on occasion. *Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:* 80,046 hours. *Estimated Total Annual Costs:* $7,221,357, which includes $0 annualized capital/startup costs, $91,348 annualized Operating and Maintenance (O&M) costs, and $7,130,009 annualized labor costs. *Changes in the Estimates:* The decrease in burden to industry from the most recently approved ICR is due to a decrease in the number of existing primary aluminum reduction plants that are subject to NESHAP subpart LL. The number of facilities in this renewal are less than in the previous ICR due to a more accurate estimate of the number of facilities and the closure of a number of facilities. The closures were caused by economic factors such as the cost of energy. The reduction in the number of respondents to this ICR also resulted in a decrease on the average annual cost for capital/startup and operation and maintenance costs to industry over the next three years of the ICR.

Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. 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. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the **Federal Register** when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, are displayed either by publication in the **Federal Register** or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR Part 9. *Abstract:* Under Title II of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7521 *et seq.* ; CAA), EPA is charged with issuing certificates of conformity for certain spark-ignition

(SI)engines used to propel marine vessels that comply with applicable emission standards. Such a certificate must be issued before engines may be legally introduced into commerce. To apply for a certificate of conformity, manufacturers are required to submit descriptions of their planned production line, including descriptions of the emission control system, and engine emission test data. This information is organized by “engine family.” An engine family is a group of engines expected to have similar emission characteristics. There are also record-keeping requirements. Under the regulations governing marine SI engines, manufacturers must use the Averaging, Banking, and Trading Program

(ABT)and must submit information regarding the calculation, actual generation, and usage of emission credits in a certification application, an end-of-the-year report, and final report. These reports are used for certification and enforcement purposes. The Act also mandates EPA to verify that manufacturers have successfully translated their certified prototype engines into mass produced engines, and that these engines comply with emission standards throughout their useful lives. Under the Production-Line Testing

(PLT)Program, manufacturers are required to test a sample of engines as they leave the assembly line. This self-audit program increases efficiency and reduces the cost of correcting misbuilds and other errors made in the assembly line. Under the In-use Testing Program (In-use), manufacturers are required to test engines after a number of years of use to verify that they comply with emission standards throughout their useful lives. *Burden Statement:* The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 154 hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. *Respondents/Affected Entities:* Entities potentially affected by these actions are manufacturers of marine spark-ignition engines. *Estimated Number of Respondents:* 12. *Frequency of Response:* Annual, quarterly, and on occasion. *Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:* 26,546. *Estimated Total Annual Cost:* $1,608,844, includes $219,223 annualized capital or O&M costs. *Changes in the Estimates:* There is a decrease of 13,747 hours in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. This decrease is due to an adjustment in the total estimated number of responses. Under the previous ICR, manufacturers could request a waiver from most compliance requirements (PLT, In-use, etc.) for engine families with technology that was already in existence as of 1997 if they agreed to completely phase these families out by 2005. Since the phase out date already passed, manufacturers are no longer producing those engine families. Dated: January 16, 2008. Sara Hisel-McCoy, Director, Collection Strategies Division. [FR Doc.

The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. *Abstract:* The New Source Performance Standards

(NSPS)for Asphalt Processing and Roofing Manufacture (40 CFR part 60, subpart UU), were proposed on November 18, 1980 and promulgated on May 26, 1981. These standards apply to each saturator and each asphalt storage facility at asphalt roofing plants; and to each asphalt storage tank and each blowing still at asphalt processing plants, petroleum refineries, and asphalt roofing plants. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information will then be used by enforcement agencies to verify that sources subject to the standard are meeting the emission reductions mandated by the Clean Air Act. Owners/operators of asphalt processing and roofing manufacture are required to submit one-time only notification of construction/reconstruction, actual startup, initial performance test, physical or operational changes, and demonstration of a continuous monitoring system. Records must be maintained of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications reports, and records are essential in determining compliance; and are required, in general, of all sources subject to NSPS. Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part shall maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at least two years following the date of such measurements, maintenance reports, and records. All reports are sent to the delegated state or local authority. In the event that there is no such delegated authority, the reports are sent directly to the EPA regional office. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 60, subpart UU, as authorized in section 112 and 114(a) of the Clean Air Act. The required information consists of emissions data and other information that have been determined to be private. 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. The OMB Control Number for EPA's regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15, and are identified on the form and/or instrument, if applicable. *Burden Statement:* The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 113 hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. *Respondents/Affected Entities:* Asphalt processing and roofing manufacture. *Estimated Number of Respondents:* 144. *Frequency of Response:* Initially, and semiannually. *Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:* 33,912. *Estimated Total Annual Cost:* $8,714,925, which includes $200,000 annualized Capital Startup costs, $5,040,000 annualized Operating and Maintenance (O&M) costs, and $3,474,925 annualized Labor costs. *Changes in the Estimates:* There is an adjustment increase in the total estimated burden hours as currently identified in the OMB inventory of burdens because the previous tables did not represent all of the reporting requirements. The decrease in the number of sources was caused by buy-outs and/or consolidation which the industry has been experiencing for the last several years. The decrease in the capital startup and O&M costs estimates as compared with the previous ICR is attributed solely to the decrease in the number of sources. This ICR corrects the deficiencies.

What Information Collection Activity or ICR Does This Apply to? *Affected entities:* Entities potentially affected by this action are state and local governments, state and county colleges, and organizations that provide training assistance through the Clean Water Act 104(g)(1) Program to municipal wastewater treatment plants. *Title:* National Wastewater Operator Training and Technical Assistance Program (Renewal). *ICR numbers:* EPA ICR No. 1977.03, OMB Control No. 2040-0238. *ICR status:* The current ICR expires on June 30, 2008. 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. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the **Federal Register** when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, and displayed either by publication in the **Federal Register** or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. *Abstract:* The Wastewater Operator Training Program provides on-site technical assistance to municipal wastewater treatment plants. Information will be collected from the network of forty-six states or the 104(g)(1) training centers set up through out the United States. The information will be collected to identify the facilities assisted, the different types of assistance the program provides and the environmental outcomes and benefits of the assistance provided by the program. The information will be collected and submitted on either an annual or semi-annual basis. A Microsoft Access database and an Excel spreadsheet have been developed for this purpose. This ICR will be used by EPA for the technical and financial management of the 104(g)(1) Program. The 104(g)(1) Program training centers participate in the information collection in compliance with the grant conditions. All information in the data system will be made public upon request. *Burden Statement:* The total number of respondents is estimated to be 46 including the states and the training centers. The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to be seven hours per respondent for 46 respondents with a total burden of 322 hours at an annual cost of $14,361(assuming an average hourly salary of $44.60). All forty-six

(46)training centers and EPA have the necessary equipment, desk-top computers and software, to collect and manage this information. There will be no additional start-up or maintenance costs associated with this project to perform this information collection request. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and use technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose information. The ICR provides a detailed explanation of the Agency's estimate, which is only briefly summarized here: *Estimated total number of potential responden* ts: 46. *Frequency of response:* Three times a year. *Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent:* Three. *Estimated total annual burden hours:* 322 hours. *Estimated total annual costs:* $14,361. This includes an estimated reporting burden cost of $14,361 and an estimated cost of $0 for capital investment or maintenance and operational costs. *Changes in the Estimates:* There is no change in the total estimated respondent burden hours compared with that identified in the ICR currently approved by OMB. EPA has not modified the requirements that were included in the previous ICR. Dated: January 8, 2008. James A. Hanlon, Director, Office of Wastewater Management. [FR Doc.
