For additional information about EPA's public docket, visit *http://www.epa.gov/dockets.* *Abstract:* The regulations at 40 CFR 80 require gasoline be reformulated to reduce toxic and ozone-forming emissions. The regulations also contain reporting and recordkeeping requirements for the production, importation, transport and storage of gasoline, in order to demonstrate compliance and facilitate compliance and enforcement. For example, refiners must report on the benzene content of gasoline and other properties. Information claimed as confidential is handled in accordance with EPA Freedom of Information Act regulations at 40 CFR part 2. Electronic files received by the Agency are stored in a secure data base. *Form Numbers:* RFG0302, RFG0303, RFG0400, RFG0500, RFG0800, RFG0900, RFG1000, RFG1200, RFG1300, RFG1400, RFG1600, RFG1700, RFG1800, RFG1900, RFG2000, RFG2200, RFG2500, 3520-27, GSF0402, 5900-321. All information about registration and links to reporting forms and the URF standard reporting template are available at *https://www.epa.gov/fuels-registration-reporting-and-compliance-help.* *Respondents/affected entities:* Refiners, importers, terminals, pipelines, truckers and other distributors and retailers/wholesale purchase-consumers. Some refiners are importers but that is not always the case. *Respondent's obligation to respond:* Mandatory per 40 CFR part 80. *Estimated number of respondents:* 4,281. *Frequency of response:* Quarterly, annually, or on occasion. *Total estimated burden:* 126,846 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). *Total estimated cost:* $39,450,368 (per year), includes $24,713,032 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. *Changes in Estimates:* The burden estimate for each of the listed categories has a slight reduction of 400 hours and one fewer report compared to the existing clearance; these are due to the expiration of the provision allowing for the submittal of a Foreign Refinery Baseline Petition. Thus, there is a decrease of the estimated burden hours from 127,246 currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens to 126,846 hours and a decrease in the number of reports from 54,078 to 54,076.
