\1\ ND = No determination is being proposed.

    The EPA is requesting comment on two aspects of these
confidentiality determinations. First, the EPA seeks comment on the
proposed data category assignment for each of these data elements in
Tables 5 and 6 of this preamble. If you believe that the EPA has
improperly assigned any proposed new data elements to one of the data
categories, please provide specific comments identifying which proposed
new data elements may be mis-assigned along with a detailed explanation
of why you believe them to be incorrectly assigned and in which data
category you believe they best belong.
    Second, for those data elements included in Table 6 of this
preamble and assigned to the two direct emitter data categories without
categorical confidentiality determinations, the EPA seeks comment on
the individual confidentiality determinations we are proposing for
these data elements. If you comment on this issue, please provide
specific comment along with detailed rationale and supporting
information on whether such data element does or does not qualify as
CBI.

V. Impacts of the Proposed Rule

    This section examines the cost impacts of the proposed rulemaking.
A detailed discussion of the impacts may be found in the memorandum,
``Assessment of Cost Impacts of 2015 Inputs Proposal--Revisions to
Reporting, Recordkeeping, and Verification Requirements under the
Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program,'' available in EPA docket ID No. EPA-
HQ-OAR-2010-0929.

A. How were the costs of this proposed rule estimated?

1. Proposed Inputs Verification Tool
    The data elements required to be used for calculating the annual
GHG emissions values and the cost associated with collecting these data
have not changed from the estimate made during the original rulemaking
process. The time associated with entry of these ``inputs to
equations'' data elements into e-GGRT (including into the new inputs
verification tool) is expected to be equivalent to the time originally
anticipated for data entry. Prior to the inputs verification tool, as
currently required, reporters must use their own calculation tool
(e.g., calculator, calculation software) to calculate the annual GHG
emissions values, using the same sets of equations and entering the
same data elements that they would enter into the tool.
    The EPA does recognize however that there may be some time
associated with learning the new procedures for the inputs verification
tool and we have estimated a cost of approximately $66 per facility, or
$379,000 for the first year for all affected facilities. During their
first session using the proposed inputs verification tool, reporters
would need to spend approximately 1 hour becoming familiar with how the
tool operates within e-GGRT. The proposed new requirement to use the
inputs verification tool would not result in any change in the
respondent activity of entering these data into e-GGRT. Once the
reporter has become familiar with the tool, EPA does not anticipate any
additional burden. The cost includes technical, clerical, and
managerial labor hours. For further information about this cost
estimate, refer to the memorandum ``Assessment of Cost Impacts of 2015
Inputs Proposal--Revisions to Reporting, Recordkeeping, and
Verification Requirements under the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program''
and the supporting statement for this proposed information collection
request, ``Supporting Statement, Environmental Protection Agency:
Revisions to Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements, and Proposed
Confidentiality Determinations under the Greenhouse Gas Reporting
Program, OMB control number 2060-0629, ICR number 2300.12,'' both
available in docket EPA-HQ-OAR-2010-0929.
2. Proposed New Data Elements
    We are proposing to add 26 new data elements that were not
previously required to be reported under Part 98 (see Section II.D of
this preamble for further discussion of this proposed amendment), to be
reported by facilities in certain subparts that are required to use the
proposed inputs verification tool. Of these 26 data elements, nine data
elements are related to annual production or raw material usage, which
are collected by a facility as a routine part of conducting business.
For these data elements, we are not proposing that reporters comply
with specific data collection or monitoring requirements beyond the
methods commonly used for accounting purposes. The other 17 data
elements proposed to be reported are calculated values using data
currently required to be collected to perform

emissions calculations. For all of these additional data elements, the
EPA has estimated a nominal additional cost to report the data element
and fulfill the recordkeeping requirements. The total costs associated
with reporting and recordkeeping for the 26 data elements in 10
subparts is $80,000. These costs represent the cost for all affected
facilities in the first year.

B. Additional Impacts of the Proposed Amendments

    The proposed confidentiality determinations for the new data
elements would not affect whether and how data are reported and,
therefore, would not impose any additional burden on sources.

VI. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

A. Executive Order 12866: Regulatory Planning and Review and Executive
Order 13563: Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review

    Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this
action is a ``significant regulatory action'' because this action
raises novel legal or policy issues arising out of legal mandates, the
President's priorities, or principles set forth in the executive order.
Accordingly, the EPA submitted this action to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for review under Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 (76
FR 3821, January 21, 2011) and any changes made in response to OMB
recommendations have been documented in the docket for this action.

B. Paperwork Reduction Act

    The information collection requirements in this proposed rule have
been submitted for approval to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq. The
Information Collection Request (ICR) document prepared by EPA has been
assigned EPA ICR number 2300.12.
    This action proposes to amend reporting and recordkeeping
requirements and verification procedures for the GHGRP. In addition,
the EPA is proposing confidentiality determinations for the proposed
new data elements in this action. The proposed amendments to the
reporting requirements in the source category-specific subparts are not
anticipated to result in significant burden for reporters. The new data
elements required to be reported are expected to be readily available
for affected facilities, or easily calculated using data already
required to be collected (e.g., a monthly value is currently reported
and an annual value is proposed to be reported).
    Impacts associated with the proposed changes to the reporting
requirements in each subpart are detailed in the memorandum
``Assessment of Cost Impacts of 2015 Inputs Proposal--Revisions to
Reporting, Recordkeeping, and Verification Requirements under the
Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program'' (see Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2010-
0929). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    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 numbers for the
EPA's regulations in 40 CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9.
    To comment on the Agency's need for this information, the accuracy
of the provided burden estimates, and any suggested methods for
minimizing respondent burden, the EPA has established a public docket
for this rule, which includes this ICR, under Docket ID number EPA-HQ-
OAR-2010-0929. Submit any comments related to this ICR to the EPA and
the OMB. See the ADDRESSES section at the beginning of this notice for
where to submit comments to the EPA. Send comments to the OMB at the
Office of Information Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and
Budget, 725 17th Street NW., Washington, DC 20503, Attention: Desk
Office for EPA. Since the OMB is required to make a decision concerning
this ICR between 30 and 60 days after September 11, 2013, a comment to
OMB is best assured of having its full effect if OMB receives the
comment by October 11, 2013. The final rule will respond to any OMB or
public comments on the information collection requirements contained in
this proposal.

C. Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA)

    The RFA generally requires an agency to prepare a regulatory
flexibility analysis of any rule subject to notice and comment
rulemaking requirements under the Administrative Procedure Act or any
other statute unless the agency certifies that the rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
Small entities include small businesses, small organizations, and small
governmental jurisdictions.
    For purposes of assessing the impacts of today's proposed rule
amendments on small entities, small entity is defined as: (1) A small
business as defined by the Small Business Administration's (SBA)
regulations at 13 CFR 121.201; (2) a small governmental jurisdiction
that is a government of a city, county, town, school district or
special district with a population of less than 50,000; or (3) a small
organization that is any not-for-profit enterprise which is
independently owned and operated and is not dominant in its field.
After considering the economic impacts of today's proposed amendments
on small entities, I certify that this action will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities.
The small entities directly regulated by these proposed rule amendments
include small businesses across all sectors of the economy encompassed
by Part 98, small governmental jurisdictions, and small non-profits. We
have determined that these facilities will experience impacts of
roughly a first-year cost of $66 per facility for learning new
procedures for the verification tool and an annual cost of $100 per
facility for the recordkeeping and reporting of 26 new data elements.
    Although these proposed rule amendments will not have a significant
economic impact on a substantial number of small entities, the EPA
nonetheless has tried to reduce the impact of this rule on small
entities. The EPA supports a ``help desk'' for the GHGRP, which would
be available to answer questions on the provisions in this rulemaking.
    We continue to be interested in the potential impacts of the
proposed rule amendments on small entities and welcome comments on
issues related to such impacts.

D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA)

    The proposed amendments and confidentiality determinations do not
contain a federal mandate that may result in expenditures of $100
million or more for State, local, and tribal governments, in the
aggregate, or the private sector in any one year. This action proposes:
(1) Requirements for certain reporters under 24 subparts to use an EPA-
provided inputs verification tool instead of reporting certain data
elements for which disclosure concerns have been identified, (2)
lengthening the record retention time for reporters required to use the
inputs verification tool, and (3) new data elements to be reported for
certain reporters using the inputs verification tool and
confidentiality determinations for these new data element. As discussed
in section V of this preamble, for the first year, the total collective
impact on regulated entities is: (1) $379,000, or $66 per entity, for
using the inputs verification tool; and (2) $80,000, or

$103 per entity, for the proposed new data elements to be reported.
Thus, the proposed amendments and confidentiality determinations are
not subject to the requirements of sections 202 or 205 of UMRA.
    This rule is also not subject to the requirements of section 203 of
UMRA because it contains no regulatory requirements that might
significantly or uniquely affect small governments. This action
proposes to amend reporting and recordkeeping requirements and
verification procedures for certain reporters in the GHGRP. In
addition, the EPA is proposing confidentiality determinations for the
proposed new data elements in this action. As discussed in section V of
this preamble, the total collective impact on regulated entities is
$459,000 in the first year, and $80,000 annually thereafter. Because
this impact on each individual facility is estimated to be
approximately $66-$169 in the first year and $103 annually thereafter,
the EPA has determined that the provisions in this action would not
significantly impact small governments. In addition, because none of
the provisions apply specifically to small governments, the EPA has
determined that the provisions in this action would not uniquely impact
small governments. Therefore, this action is not subject to the
requirements of section 203 of the UMRA.

E. Executive Order 13132: Federalism

    The action does not have federalism implications. It will not have
substantial direct effects on the states, on the relationship between
the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power
and responsibilities among the various levels of government, as
specified in Executive Order 13132. The proposed amendments and
confidentiality determinations apply to facilities that directly emit
greenhouses gases and fuel and chemicals suppliers. These proposed
changes do not apply to governmental entities unless the government
entity owns a facility that directly emits GHGs above threshold levels
(such as a large stationary combustion device), so relatively few
government facilities would be affected. Moreover, for government
facilities that are subject to the rule, the proposed revisions will
not have a significant cost impact. This proposed action also does not
limit the power of states or localities to collect GHG data and/or
regulate GHG emissions. Thus, Executive Order 13132 does not apply to
this rule.
    In the spirit of Executive Order 13132, and consistent with EPA
policy to promote communications between the EPA and State and local
governments, the EPA specifically solicits comments on this proposed
action from State and local officials.

F. Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination With Indian
Tribal Governments.

    This proposed action does not have tribal implications, as
specified in Executive Order 13175 (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000). The
proposed amendments and confidentiality determinations apply directly
to facilities that directly emit greenhouses gases or that are
suppliers of GHGs. They would not have tribal implications unless the
tribal entity owns a facility that directly emits GHGs above threshold
levels (such as a landfill or large combustion device). Relatively few
tribal facilities would be affected. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does
not apply to this action.

G. Executive Order 13045: Protection of Children From Environmental
Health Risks and Safety Risks

    The EPA interprets Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23,
1997) as applying only to those regulatory actions that concern health
or safety risks, such that the analysis required under section 5-501 of
the Executive Order has the potential to influence the regulation. This
proposed action is not subject to Executive Order 13045 because it does
not establish an environmental standard intended to mitigate health or
safety risks.

H. Executive Order 13211: Actions That Significantly Affect Energy
Supply, Distribution, or Use

    This proposed action is not a ``significant energy action'' as
defined in Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001), because
it is not likely to have a significant adverse effect on the supply,
distribution, or use of energy. Part 98 relates to monitoring,
reporting, and recordkeeping and does not impact energy supply,
distribution, or use. This action proposes to amend reporting and
recordkeeping requirements and verification procedures for the GHGRP.
In addition, the EPA is proposing confidentiality determinations for
the proposed new data elements in this action. These proposed
amendments and confidentiality determinations do not make any changes
to the existing monitoring, recordkeeping, or reporting requirements
under Part 98 that affect the supply, distribution, or use of energy.

I. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act

    Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement
Act of 1995 (NTTAA), Public Law 104-113, 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note)
directs the EPA to use voluntary consensus standards in its regulatory
activities unless to do so would be inconsistent with applicable law or
otherwise impractical. Voluntary consensus standards are technical
standards (e.g., materials specifications, test methods, sampling
procedures, and business practices) that are developed or adopted by
voluntary consensus standards bodies. NTTAA directs the EPA to provide
Congress, through OMB, explanations when the Agency decides not to use
available and applicable voluntary consensus standards.
    This proposed rulemaking does not involve any new technical
standards. Therefore, the EPA is not considering the use of any
voluntary consensus standards.

J. Executive Order 12898: Federal Actions To Address Environmental
Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations

    Executive Order 12898 (59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994) establishes
federal executive policy on environmental justice. Its main provision
directs federal agencies, to the greatest extent practicable and
permitted by law, to make environmental justice part of their mission
by identifying and addressing, as appropriate, disproportionately high
and adverse human health or environmental effects of their programs,
policies, and activities on minority populations and low-income
populations in the United States.
    The EPA has determined that these proposed rule amendments will not
have disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental
effects on minority or low-income populations because the amendments do
not affect the level of protection provided to human health or the
environment. This is because the proposed amendments address
information collection and reporting and verification procedures.
