This ICR is for
the proposed Hazardous Waste Injection Disposal Restriction. OMB is
disapproving this ICR until EPA does the following Demonstrate more
fully that items with no burden or cost estimates (ie Waste
Analysis Plan, Class I notification, and closure) are in fact
currently being done as part of "customary and usual" business
practic or other existing regulatory requirements. Disaggregate the
burden an cost estimate for Mechanical Integrity Testing into
pressure test, rad active tracer survey, and bottom hole pressure
test and also justify t sampling and reporting interval selected
(annual or five years). Do conditions change so rapidaly that
annual tests are necessary? What about 3 years? The ICR package
mentions quarterly reporting but there doesn't appear to be any
unless they are hidden in the Waste Analysis Plan. Please clarify.
Justify more completely the ambient monitoring sampling interval
and the burden of the rejected mechanical integrity tests. How
frequent is the post-closure monitoring and why? Discuss how the
inventory will assist in evaluating solvent exempt Explain why
burden was calculated indirectly from cost a In general, the ICR
doesn't adequately demonstrate the prac of the information. 7/87
terms of clearance are still relevan addendum including the
expiration date for the main ICR (7/88 If the timing is right this
addendum should be incorporated into main ICR. Any questions on
these remarks should be directed t
