background

•ursuant to Subtitle C of the Solidiste Disposal Act, as amended by theiource Conservation and Recoveryt of 1976, as amended (RCRA), 42;.C. 6901 et seq.. EPA promulgatedillations on May 19,1980, establishingomprehensive regulatory program formanagement and control of

:ardous wastes (see 40 CFR Parts --265 and 122-124, 45 FR 33066).

^The paperwork requirements under - -ifle RCRA standards for generators. - - -transporters, and treatment, storage and .disposal facilities include one-time andongding reporting and recordkeeping —requ rements necessary to implement.the i rogram and establish a data base to

tor program compliance. Majorponents of these paperwork • '-—irements include the following: - -11 handlers of hazardous waste must •

itify EPA and receive identification ;lumbers (see Section 3010). Each -

generator must initiate a manifest with •each shipment of waste, containing .'"waste information and an EPAIdentification number. This manifest is 'to be carried by the transporter, to the ;faculty owner or operator and returned.to the generator. Copies of the manifestare to be retained as records by all -"-handlers (see Section 3002}. - ,

All treatment, storage, and disposalfacilities and generators must submitannual reports on their hazardous wasteactivities during the previous calendaryear and retain copies of these reports _as records (see Section 3002.3004). In ~addition, treatment, storage, anddisposal facilities must prepare andsubmit applications for permits tooperate a hazardous waste managementfacilities under the full facility standards(see Section 3005). All facilities mustmaintain personnel files, records oftraining procedures, and a dailyoperating record which includes adescription of shipments received, •procedures followed and incidents . . -which occur (see Section 3004).

Facilities must also prepare and -maintain contingency plans and closureplans, with estimates for the cost ofclosure care. Where post-closure care isrequired, plans and costs estimates forthis care must be prepared and • .maintained (see Section 3004).

Finally, the standards requirefacilities to notify EPA concerning theestablishment of financial instrumentsto assure closure and post-closure care(see Section 3004).

Rather than expend its limitedresources analyzing the more than 30individual paperwork requirements,EPA has concentrated on the sevenlargest information collection activitiesin order to achieve the greatest possibleburden reduction. Together, these sevenrequirements account for approximately80 percent of the information burden onthe regulated community. They are thefollowing: -Annual Report (For generatore and facilities)Manifest System Information RequirementsPermitting Requirements (Part B) for Storage

EPA has developed specific - "•'.-•preliminary proposals regarding the • -'annual report, the manifest system andthe permitting requirements. In the fourremaining areas, EPA has identified

_ further possibilities for information' burden reduction. • ~ •

EPA's examination of the paperworkburden will continue in these remainingareas. At the same time, EPA is alsoreviewing its RCRA regulations toidentify areas where a "degree/class ofhazard** approach may be incorporatedinto the regulation to a greater extentOnce the paperwork reductionexamination in the remaining four areashas been completed and integrated withthe class of hazard analysis, EPAexpects to prepare Final proposals forpaperwork reduction by September.

IL Results of Preliminary Analysis^A. Aftiival Report (40 CFR 262.41,264.75,

and 265.75) - .The Agency plans to eliminate thecurrent requirement that all generatorsand all owners or operators ofhazardous waste facilities file an annualreport summarizing their activitiesrelated to hazardous wastemanagement In its place. EPA plans tosubstitute an annual survey ofgenerators and facilities. The surveywould be sent each year to a statisticalsample of both the generator and facilitypopulations.

The authority for the use of an annualsurvey comes from Sections 3002.3004,end 3007 of the statute.

The benefits associated with replacingannual reporting requirements with asample survey approach are significant.First and foremost this approach willgreatly reduce reporting requirements onthe regulated community. In fact weestimate the burden reduction for •annual reporting requirements to be inthe range of 90 to 95 percent—fromroughly 290.000 hours down toapproximately 26,000 hours. Two factorsaccount for this reduction. First only 10percent or less of the total number ofgenerators and facilities will be affectedat all in any given year. Second, thesurvey forms are substantiallysimplified and therefore less

burdensome to complete than the ;„• .-—.-;•current annual report forms. ••-.. -._ . „..-.

In addition, the survey approach will '3significantly reduce EPA'a processing -•• -costs. This reduction will allow a more.._complete and systematic compilation^.-',and analysis of the hazardous waste ~-...data received through the survey. -Finally, this approach will result in morerepresentative statistics because the •survey will go out to a statisticallyrepresentative sample of facilities andgenerators in all states. The Subtitle Cprogram provides for the authorizationof state hazardous waste programs, inlieu of the Federal program, where thestate program is substantially equivalentto the Federal program. Using thecurrent annual reporting mechanism.however, EPA would receive reportsonly from hazardous waste handlers instates where EPA is operating theprogram, i.e.. in non-authorized states.Thus, over the years EPA would only becollecting information directly from thehandlers in the handful of states whichdo not receive authorization to run theirown hazardous waste programs. Such areport may not yield nationallyrepresentative information.B. Manifest System (40 CFR 262.20-

262^3,263.20, 264.71, and 265.71)The Agency expects to replace the

general information requirements forwhat data must appear on manifestswith a prescribed uniform manifestform. Current regulations do not setforth a required form for the manifestsystem. The Agency's original intentwas to set up a manifest requirementwith enough flexibility to allow Statesand industry to design specificdocuments to fulfill specific needs.

The current system is causing twoproblems. First, the lack of uniformity inthe manifests required by the States hascreated situations in which generatorsand transporters must fill out and carrymultiple manifest forms when wastesare shipped interstate. Currently, atransporter carrying a hazardous wasteshipment across state lines must complywith the manifest system operating ineach stale. This means that atransporter traveling through a statemust have in his possession the manifestrequired in that state. Under theseconditions, several manifests could benecessary to transport one load ofhazardous waste interstate.

Second, generators with plants inmore than one state cannot consolidateand standardize their manifestingprocedures company-wide because of alack of uniform requirements. This

'situation results in a failure to achieveefficiency in information collectionactivities in all roultistate corporations

in the country which are currently '-•• - .regulated by RCRA. .•.. . -..^- '."„'-;:;

.To solve these problems—all of which.;give rise to unnecessary paperwork ^- ... -;burdens—EPA has been-working with ." -the Association of State and. Territorial. -Solid Waste Management Officials and -the Hazardous Materials Advisory ... ,Council, which represent the States and.'-"industry, respectively, in developing auniform manifest systenuAlthough the . 'exact burden reduction which will ...accrue from this project is difficult to~.''."calculate due to uncertainties in the ' " "number of interstate waste shipments'; /'and the actual economies of scale ._ ; ~'~.achievable by multi-state corporations ..not having multiple requirements withwhich to comply, EPA believes. • • • • • - ' — "nonetheless, that burden reduction can " •be significant by adoptmg'uniformmanifest requirements. - . • " • - - '

In addition to a uniform manifest -form. EPA is developing a proposal for apermanent manifest which could be -used in certain cases as an alternativeto the existing manifest system. Thisalternative is designed to reduce the - 'administrative burden on generators incases where the same wastes are --•shipped by generators to off-sitefacilities which they own.

In lieu of the existing system which -requires a separate manifest for eachwaste shipment, a permanent manifestwould be carried by the transportingvehicle every time a shipment of thissame waste occurred. The permanentmanifest would include all manifest.information and identify the route thevehicle would travel.^The generator andhazardous waste management facilitywould also be required to establish awaste tracking system that wouldidentify the quantity for each shipment(e.g.,.shipment log). --.-.•-- -

Notice of intent to use this. alternativesystem would be sent to EPA prior toinitiation, and would include a copy ofeach permanent manifest and anexplanation of the waste tracking .system: .."."•: '-

This alternative system provides for asimpler and more practical approach tothe manifest requirement when agenerator and hazardous waste facilityare owned or operated by the sa=;eperson. A large measure of thepaperwork in such situations would beeliminated through the discontinuationof manifest preparation for each andevery shipment of the same waste- Inaddition, there would be reducedrecordkeeping due to the ne^d to keeponly a copy of the shipping log ratherthan each individual manifest.

Establishment and implementation ofthis alternative manifest system require*Department of Transportation

concurrence and joint rulemaking. A -..final joint proposal for a permanent' ' .manifest is expected to be developed inconjunction with the uniform manifestform proposal... _C. Permitting Requirements (40 CFR -

122.4) -.- -. " . . . . .Using a class of hazard approach, the

Agency plans to reduce the informationrequirements for permit applications ' .and permit procedures for lower riskhazardous waste storage facilities. 'Storage facilities have been targeted forpermit process burden reduction for tworeasons. First such facilities represent ahighly significant portion of hazardouswaste facilities. Preliminary analysis ofthe approximately 14.000 Part A permitapplications received by EPA indicatesthat roughly 40 percent of all .- .-applications only involve storage ofhazardous wastes in tanks or , _containers. Second, storage facilitiCTr^fproperly run. represent in general ar~~-lower public health and environmentalrisk than disposal facilities. '"°

Under this proposal. Part B permit—applications and permitting procedureswould be tailored to the degree of nSKposed by the various categories of 0storage facility. In the case of very lowrisk storage facilities, no permitapplication would be required. If facilityowners or operators use appropriateDepartment of Transportationcontainers and notify EPA that they fallin this category, then such facilitieswould be granted a permit by rule.

For moderate risk storage facilities.EPA would develop a standardized andsimplified Part B permit application.Certain technical information requiredin an application would be obtainedthrough statements to be filled in orchecked by the applicant (e.g, thedistance to fireRghting equipment is—— feet). Certain other technical andadministrative information required inan application (e.g.. the contingencyplan) would be provided by self-certification that such information isavailable at the facility and does complywith the requirements of the regulations.

For high risk facilities, the Part Bpersiil application requirementscur-ently in effect and the normal permitprocedures would remain in effectowirg to the greater risk* involved.

The btr;ef;t» of this approach areobvious. Low risk facilities will not havato »ubciit any Part B permitapplication*. Aa a result, the paperworkburden auodated with permitapplication for this class of facility willbe completely elunina'.ed. Although theexact number of low risk storagefaohtsw i» unknown, the burden

reduction should be significant. Burdenreduction will also accrue from thesimplified permit applications formoderate risk facilities. And althoughnot strictly a paperwork burden,permitting process burdens for moderaterisk facilities also will be significantlyreduced by the expedited procedureswhich will be adopted.III. Other Areas of AnalysisA. Operating Record (40 CFR 264.73,

265.73)EPA will review the current operating

.-ecord requirements with the objectiveof reducing the information burden inwo major areas. First, the number ofcandling codes to be used in theoperating record should be reduced toigree with the number used in thepermitting process. Facilities mustcurrently utilize a table of 85 handling--odes to identify the managementechniques applied to each. waste.Facility permits, however, utilize only 13handling codes. Furthermore, theproposed annual survey will collectnformation based upon those 13 codes.continuing to require facilities to keep-ecords based on the 85 codes when theagency intends to analyze theiriperations using only 13 codes seemsquestionable.

Second, the operating record-equiremenis mandate that facilities.eep copies of a number of reports thatesult in duplication of records kept in-ither locations. Examples include;ummary reports of emergency incidentssnd notices of certification of--ompliance with permit requirements.copies of these reports may be kept-nore appropriately in another locationnstead of placing this burden on theacility. ••

Additional possibilities for burden •eduction may be discovered as a resultf the class of hazard analysis • .cheduled for completion in lateummer. In large measure, however, theicility operating records form aeystone (o the entire hazardous waste'gulatory system. Not only does the/aste-specific information included in"ie operating record provide the basispon which facilities can comply withie various reporting requirements of -;e regulations, it also constitutes a keycement in the framework ofocumenting the actual management ofazardous wastes from generation'.rough transportation to finalisposition.. Groundwater Monitoring (40 CFR265.94) — . . - . : .EPA will review the groundwater

monitoring requirements as part of theclass of hazard analysis. EPA. however,does not expect possibilities for majorburden reduction in the groundwatermonitoring requirements. Protection ofgroundwater against contaminationfrom releases of hazardous wastes orhazardous waste constituents is a majorobjective of RCRA. Years of negligencein guarding against groundwatercontamination have led to the closing ofcountless wells used by individuals andpublic utilities as sources of drinkingwater. These impacts are long-terra innature, and may ultimately produce-irreversible damage to our groundwaterresources.

In this context, the groundwatermonitoring requirements affect only asmall subset of the population ofhazardous waste management facilities.i-e., an estimated 4,500 landfill, injectionwell. surface impoundment (for storage,treatment and disposal) and landtreatment facilities. Furthermore, thereis provision for facilities to obtain awaiver from compliance with any of thegroundwater regulations, upondemonstration of low potential formigration of contaminants to watersupply wells.

Moreover, EPA has tried to minimizethe burden of groundwater monitoringwith a minimum indicator programleading to assessment monitoring only ifproblems are detected. However, EPAhas a continuing concern that the funds -which industry expends on groundwatermonitoring pursuant to this regulationlead to information useful to thefacilities and to environmental officials.To get maximum use of the data EPA

- plans to issue further guidance tofacilities on how they can be sure ofgetting sound advice from theirbydrogeologists and drillers. EPA willalso undertake a timely evaluation ofthe groundwater monitoringrequirements to ensure that industry andagencies are getting the most from theexpenditure of funds in this area.

C. Closure'/Post-Closure and FinancialAssurance Requirements (40 CFR264.112-264.120, 2G4.142-264.151.265.112-265.120. 265.142-265.151)EPA will review two elements of the

closure/post-closure and financialassurance requirements which may beunnecessarily burdensome to theregulated community. First, therequirement that post-closure costestimates be adjusted to reflect changesin the post-closure plan during the post-closure period should be reconsidered.

Since during the post-closure period, theamount of the financial instrumentadjustment is no longer required anddoes not appear in the final regulation.this requirement could possibly beeliminated.

Second, the requirement that both acopy of the insurance policy and .endorsement be forwarded to theRegional Administrator by all owners oroperators may not be necessary. Thereceipt of the endorsement alone wouldbe sufficient evidence of insurance. Asampling of policies, however, may benecessary to determine whether there isa need to make coverage requirementsmore spedGc.

D. Contingency Plan (40 CFR 264.52-264.56,265.51-265.56) - . • • • • • . .

The Agency will review thecontingency plan requirements to assess•whether they fully address the variety of CT''hazards posed by different facilities ^ ^applying different processes to differentwaste streams. • \0

The purpose of the contingency plan <—requirement is to ensure that treatment,storage and disposal facilities are . ^->

prepared to address emergency - 0situations rapidly and in such a mannerso as to limit or prevent injuries orpossible hazards to human health or the 'environment. Because the contingencyplan requirement is a performancestandard which takes into accountvarying circumstances related to wastemanagement, the owner/operatoralready has the authority to tailor hisapproach to a variety of hazards. It may,however, make sense to clearly andexplidty identify situations where less .regulation is required.

Through the degree of hazardanalysis. EPA will attempt to tailorcontingency plan requirements toclasses of wastes. Wastes which poselower risks of unplanned emergencies. •such as non-ignitable or compatible -wastes in storage situations, may be thesubject of less stringent contingencyplan requirements.

IV. Conclusion

Based on the results of thispreliminary examination of the reportingand recordkeeping requirements. EPA iscertain that information burdenreductions can be made. The Agency iscontinuing its efforts to identify burdenreduction targets and has developed thefollowing scheduled for completing thear.alysis end forwarding necessaryregulatory modifications to 0MB.

Procurement by Negotiation

AGENCY: Department of Health,Education, and Welfare.ACTION: Final rule. '

SUMMARY: The Department of Health.Education, and Welfare is amending itsprocurement regulations to. clarify the

, managementreview^process regardingfee levels under cost-plus-a-fixed-feecontracts, i

Section 304(b) of the Federal Propertyand Administrative Services Act of 1949(41 U.S.C. 254(b)) establishes maximum.fee limits for cost-plus-a-fixed-feecontracts. The Department, underexisting procurement regulations,imposes a management review ofproposed fees under cost-plus-a-fixed-fee contracts below the maximumstatutory limits and requires that adetermination and findings be executedby a procurement management officialwhenever the proposed fee will exceeda designated level. The purpose of thereview is to provide a "check and "balance" in the procurement process. .

Howeveft'some departmentalcontracting officers have erroneouslyinterpreted the fee levels that reflect amanagement review as fee ceilings.Therefore, to clarify thismisinterpretation and to express theoriginal intent of the managementreview, the Department is eliminatingthe requirement for the execution of adetermination and findings and isrevising its regulations covering thereview process. The followingamendments reflect these actions.EFFECTIVE DATE: March 11,1980.

• FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:J: Coleman, Office of ProcurementPolicy, Office of Grants andProcurement OASMB-OS, HEW,Washington. D.C. 20201 (202-245-6791).SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: It is the' general policy of the Department toallow time for interested parties toparticipate in the rulemaking process.However, since the amendments areadministrative in nature and concern theclarification of regulations, the publicrulemaking process was deemedunnecessary in this instance. The • -provisions of these amendments are .issued under 5 U.S.C. 301; 40 U.S.C.486(c).

Therefore, 41 CFR Chapter 3 isamended as set forth below.
