	Date Received in OIRA: 08/28/1997
Terms of Clearance: This ICR is not approved under 5 CFR 1320. EPA should address the following issues in developing an ICR for the final rule for the NESHAP for steel pickling: -The ICR reports (p.8) that capital/startup costs for monitoring will be zero because all facilities are expected to comply with the least expensive monitoring option (annual monitoring option). This option does not require the purchase and installation of monitoring equipment. EPA should review and support this assumption in its final ICR. -The ICR (p.7) uses labor rates and associated costs based on the Comprehensive Assessment and Information Rule (CAIR) economic analysis. EPA should review and update these labor cost estimates; EPA should also determine whether these labor costs are hourly wages or represent "fully-loaded" labor costs. - The ICR (p.4) reports that data obtained by Agency personnel from records maintained by the respondents will be tabulated and published for internal use in enforcement and compliance programs. In its final ICR, EPA should explain what steps it is taking to assure that these records are available only for internal Agency use.
