For additional information about EPA's public docket, visit *http://www.epa.gov/dockets.* *Abstract:* On March 21, 2011, EPA finalized standards and procedures to be used to identify whether non-hazardous secondary materials are solid wastes when used as fuels or ingredients in combustion units. “Secondary material” is defined as any material that is not the primary product of a manufacturing or commercial process, and can include post-consumer material, off-specification commercial chemical products or manufacturing chemical intermediates, post-industrial material, and scrap (codified in § 241.2). “Non-hazardous secondary material” is a secondary material that, when discarded, would not be identified as a hazardous waste under 40 CFR part 261 (codified in § 241.2). This RCRA solid waste definition determines whether a combustion unit is required to meet the emissions standards for solid waste incineration units issued under section 129 of the Clean Air Act
(CAA)or the emissions standards for commercial, industrial, and institutional boilers issued under section 112 of the CAA. In this rule, EPA also finalized a definition of traditional fuels. *Form Numbers:* None. *Respondents/affected entities:* Private solid waste facilities. *Respondent's obligation to respond:* Required to obtain benefit (Sections 1004 and 2002 of RCRA). *Estimated number of respondents:* 1,471 (total). *Frequency of response:* One-time. *Total estimated burden:* 984 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). *Total estimated cost:* $108,068 (per year), which includes $1,343 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. *Changes in the Estimates:* There is a decrease of 25,467 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This decrease is due to a revised estimate of the number of petitions expected to be submitted by the respondents. Courtney Kerwin, Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division.
