Abstract: 40 CFR part 257--subpart B, as required under the 1984
Hazardous and Solid Waste Amendments (HSWA) to RCRA, established
specific Criteria and reporting and recordkeeping provisions for owners
and operators of non-municipal non-hazardous waste disposal units that
receive CESQG hazardous wastes. The information collected, as a result
of this rule, is used by States to regulate and ensure that non-
municipal non-hazardous waste disposal units that receive CESQG
hazardous wastes are complying with the final revisions contained in
this rule. The information needs to be collected to ensure that States
effectively implement and enforce this rule on a State level. The
information to be collected is mandatory and must be submitted on an
occasional basis. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is
not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control number
for EPA's regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter
15. The Federal Register Notice required under 5 CFR 1320.8(d),
soliciting comments on this collection of information was published on
March 15, 1999 (64 FR 12803). No comments were received.

burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 67

resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or
disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This

collecting, validating, and verifying information, precessing and
maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information;
adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable
