Terms of Clearance: Overall, EPA should be commended for the completeness of this ICR for the proposed Stormwater Rule as well as making the information requirements flexible, accounting for site-specific variability, givin critical responsibilities to local governments, limiting sampling to only what is necessary, allowing for different management controls, avoiding duplication in spill reporting, and adopting less burdensome forms for stormwater (Form 2F). However, OMB is not approving the ICR because there are a few question and issues outlined below which need to be addressed to demonstrate that the criteria of 5 CFR 1320 have been met. (1) What is the basis for the 10 ppb quantitative data reporting cuto (see p. 42)? Are there alternative criteria for defining diminimus discharges or runoff that could be used to limit burden yet still cove significant discharges? (2) Can the permiting scope and burden for industrial facilities be limited to uncovered storage and/or transfer areas where chemical releases are more likely to end up in stormwater? (3) What value does the pesticide distributor list have in the plans? (4) Shouldn't the discussion of past activities in the description of significant materials be limited to information relevant to current an future stormwater runoff? Finally, the use of Form 2D by new dischargers needs to be estimated. NOTE: THIS ACTION IS A "DISAPPROVE AND CONTINUE" ACTION.
