paperwork burden on industry, IPC has been asked to provide information 
on the time required and costs involved in filling out three forms:

* RCRA Part A permit application

The EPA is interested in the total time to fill out each form, and if 
available a breakdown on the totat time by the following four 
categories:  legal time; managerial time; technical time; clerical time.  

In addition, the EPA is interested in any costs outside the salary time 
involved in filling out these forms, such as capital costs or additional 
legal costs.

by fax to Christopher Rhodes at IPC (fax 847-509-9798) or by email to 
Christopher Rhodes at IPC ([log in to unmask]) and Peter DuBack at ICF Kaiser
