Short Statement: Factors contributing to the variation include the stage of the ozone implementation program that various nonattainment areas are in, and states relative success in attaining the 2008 ozone NAAQS during the original ICR period. More specifically, the reasons the total estimated burden in this renewal is different than the total estimated burden in the ICR currently approved by OMB include: (1) Many areas that have successfully attained the 2008 ozone NAAQS are now eligible to request redesignation to attainment; (2) As many as 13 nonattainment areas are likely subject to the additional air quality planning and emissions control requirements of the Serious classification because they are predicted not to attain the 2008 NAAQS by the Moderate area attainment deadline. For these areas, states must take further steps to ensure air quality standards are achieved by the next attainment deadline; (3) The estimates have been calculated using 2017 dollars.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $2,000,000
