Terms of Clearance:
This collection is approved until January 2004. OMB notes that EPA has revised its annual report to remove those items that were redundant with its collection under the reformulated gasoline and anti-dumping program. OMB commends EPA for making these revisions. EPA should submit to OMB a Form 83C to amend the burden estimate of this collection to reflect these changes. OMB continues to believe, however, that the collection could be improved by revising it to focus the quarterly reporting requirement on those additives that have been specifically identified as of potential public health concern. OMB believes that only a relatively small number of the 5600 additives registered under this collection fall into this category. EPA should consider amending the collection, by regulation if necessary, to allow respondents to submit annual reports on those additives that have not been identified as potentially of public health concern. Separately, OMB notes that EPA should ensure that this collection provides a means for electronic reporting of information, consistent with the requirements of the Government Paperwork Elimination Act. OMB understands that EPA is in the process of adopting an electronic reporting strategy for this collection, and that this approach will be in place by the October 2003 deadline in GPEA. EPA should report on its progress in this area when it next submits the collection to OMB for revision or renewal.

Abstract:
Section 211(a) of the Clean Air Act authorizes the registration of mobile source fuels and fuel additives. Manufacturers of motor vehicle gasoline and diesel fuels, and additives to these fuels, are required to provide compositional, health-effects, and related information. The information will be analyzed to determine if the emissions of any fuel or additives pose an unacceptable risk to public health, thus warranting regulatory action.
