Abstract:
This ICR has been prepared to show the paperwork burden for the proposed Comparable Fuel Exclusion Rule. This rule would exclude certain waste fuels from the definition of "Hazardous Waste." The requirements stipulated under this rule will impose paperwork burden on the facilities requesting for the exclusion, but the excluded waste will be spared from the paperwork, reporting and recordkeeping requirements of "hazardous waste" under RCRA , as this excluded waste will no longer be "hazardous waste." The overall result of this rule will be a net reduction of the paperwork burden. This burden reduction will be effective after the effective date of the rule, i.e. upon final promulgation of the rule in 2008.
