Abstract: EPA promulgated Federal Implementation Plans (FIPs) under
the Clean Air Act for Indian reservations located in Idaho, Oregon, and
Washington in 40 CFR part 49 (70 FR 18074, April 8, 2005). The FIPs in
the final rule, also referred to as the Federal Air Rules for Indian
Reservations in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington (FARR), include
information collection requirements associated with the partial
delegation of administrative authority to a Tribe in 40 CFR 49.122; the
rule for limiting visible emissions at 40 CFR 49.124; fugitive
particulate matter rule in 40 CFR 49.126; the wood waste burner rule in
40 CFR 49.127; the rule for limiting sulfur in fuels in 40 CFR 49.130;
the rule for open burning in 40 CFR 49.131; the rules for general open
burning permits, agricultural burning permits, and forestry and
silvicultural burning permits in 40 CFR 49.132, 49.133, and 49.134; the
rule for emissions detrimental to human health and welfare in 40 CFR
49.135; the registration rule in 40 CFR 49.138; and the rule for non-
title V operating permits in 40 CFR 49.139. EPA uses this information
to manage the activities and sources of air pollution on the Indian
reservations in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. EPA believes these
information collection requirements are appropriate because they will
enable EPA to develop and maintain accurate records of air pollution
sources and their emissions, track emissions trends and changes,
identify potential air quality problems, allow EPA to issue permits or
approvals, and ensure appropriate records are available to verify
compliance with these FIPs. The information collection requirements
listed above are all mandatory. Regulated entities can assert claims of
business confidentiality and EPA will address these claims in
accordance with the provisions of 40 CFR part 2, subpart B.

Respondents/affected entities: Owners and operators of air emission
sources in all industry groups and tribal governments, located in the
identified Indian reservations.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory.
Estimated number of respondents: 1,732 (total).
Frequency of response: Annual or occasional.
Total estimated burden: 3,601 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $286,888 (per year), includes $0 annualized
capital or operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is decrease of 614 hours in the
total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently
approved by OMB. This decrease is based on input from source
consultations, supersedence of the provisions of one rule (49.139), and
information we have learned about the source universe through
implementing the rules since the ICR was updated in 2018.
