NESHAP for Mercury (40 CFR part 61, subpart E) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Mercury (40 CFR Part 61, Subpart E) apply to existing facilities and new facilities which process mercury ore to recover mercury, use mercury chlor-alkali cells to produce chlorine gas and alkali metal hydroxide, and incinerate or dry wastewater treatment plant sludge. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 61, Subpart E. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NESHAP.

Motor Vehicle Emissions and Fuel Economy Compliance (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

Under sections 202(a) and 202(k) of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7521), EPA finalized regulations to set more stringent vehicle emission standards beginning in model year 2017, as part of a systems approach to addressing the impacts of motor vehicles and fuels on air quality and public health. The Tier 3 vehicle emission standards, which are the subject of this ICR, reduce both tailpipe and evaporative emissions from passenger cars, light-duty trucks, medium-duty passenger vehicles, and some heavy-duty vehicles. The Tier 3 vehicle standards are harmonized with California's Low Emission Vehicle Program LEVIII standards, creating a federal vehicle emissions program allowing automakers to sell the same vehicles in all fifty states. This ICR covers the information that affected respondents must provide to the Agency. Any information submitted to the Agency for which a claim of confidentiality is made is safeguarded according to policies set forth in CFR title 40, chapter 1, part 2, subpart B Confidentiality of Business Information (see 40 CFR part 2).

[Medicaid] Methods for Assuring Access to Covered Medicaid Services Under 42 CFR 447.203 and 447.204 (CMS-10391)

Key Information

Abstract

CMS-2328-FC requires a transparent, data-driven process for states to document that Medicaid beneficiaries have access to services covered under the Medicaid State plan to the extent that services are available to the general population in a geographic area. To meet the requirements of the final rule, states must conduct access review monitoring plans that measure: the extent that enrollee needs are met, the availability of care and qualified providers, service utilization and payment rate comparisons. The reviews will be conducted every three years for: primary care, physician specialists, behavorial health, and pre and post natal obstetric services (including labor and delivery). As states reduce or restructure provider payment rates or receive significant numbers of complaints from providers and beneficiaires about access to care, additional services must be included in the review plan and monitored for at least 3 years. We are soliciting comments on the services required for ongoing access reviews and the timelines associated with review and monitoring activities. The final rule also requires states have mechanisms for obtaining beneficiary and provider feedback on access to care, such as hotlines, surveys, ombudsman or other equivalent mechanisms and institute corrective action procedures should access issues be discovered through the access review and monitoring processes. Finally, when considering reductions to Medicaid payment rates the final rule requires states to undertake a process that gathers input from stakesholds and relies upon the information analyzed through the data reveiws on the proposed reduction or restructuring of Medicaid service payment rates.

Pacific Coast Groundfish Trawl Rationalization Program Permit and License Information Collection

Key Information

Abstract

This request is for a revision and extension of a current information collection. The Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (MSA), 16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq., authorizes Fishery Management Councils to prepare and amend fishery management plans (FMP) for any fishery in waters under its jurisdiction. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) manages the groundfish fishery in the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), the area 3-200 mile zone off the Washington, Oregon, and California coasts. The Pacific Fishery Management Council (Council) began developing a trawl rationalization program, a catch share program, for the Pacific coast groundfish limited entry trawl fishery in 2003. The program is composed of three sectors, as follows: 1) the shore based individual fishing quota (IFQ) sector, 2) the at-sea whiting mothership (MS) sector, and 3) the at- sea whiting catcher/processor (C/P) sector. The shore based IFQ sector consists of quota share (QS) permit owners, catcher vessels that are registered to limited entry trawl permits, have vessel accounts, fish for quota pounds (QP), and first receiver site license (FRSL) holders who receive the shore based IFQ landings. The at-sea trawl fleets catch and process Pacific whiting (whiting) with midwater trawl gear. In the MS sector, mothership catcher vessels (MS/CVs) harvest the whiting and deliver the catch to large MS vessels, where it is sorted and processed at-sea. One or more MS coops may form and/or vessels may fish in a non-cooperative fishery. Both coop and non-coop fishery vessels pool their harvest together. In the C/P sector, C/P vessels catch and process whiting at-sea under a single C/P coop. This revision will include the removal of three ICs: Catch monitoring plans / First Receivers Preparation & Submission, Catch monitoring plans / First Receivers Inspection, & Shore based scales / First Receivers Inspection. The removal of these ICs is necessary because they are encompassed in the First Receiver Site License Application Form. This action decreases the duplicate actions and burden to fill out said forms.
