) Under this Title, EPA is charged with issuing certificates of conformity for those engines which comply with applicable emission standards. Such a certificate must be issued before engines may be legally introduced into commerce. To apply for a certificate of conformity, manufacturers are required to submit descriptions of their planned production line, including detailed descriptions of the emission control system, and test data.

Respondents/affected entities:

Respondents are manufacturers of nonroad engines within the following North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code: 33618, 33612, 336999, 336991, 333112, 335312.

Respondent's obligation to respond:

The respondent's obligation to respond is voluntary, but respondents who chose not to respond cannot obtain a Certificate of Conformity, and therefore cannot introduce their products into commerce in the U.S.

Estimated number of respondents:

393 (total).

Frequency of response:

Yearly for certification, production, ABT, and warranty reports.

Total estimated burden:

1,390 hours (per respondent, per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).

Total estimated cost:

$102,388,928.41 (per year), includes $45,650,002.40 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.

Changes in the estimates:

There is a decrease of 328 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This decrease is due largely to fewer respondents than the previous ICR and more manufacturers utilizing carrying over data from previous model years to demonstrate compliance with the standards.

Deputy Director, Data and Enterprise Programs Division.
