The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaning Facilities (40 CFR part 60, subpart M) were proposed on December 9, 1991 and promulgated on September 22, 1993. In 2005, EPA reviewed the standards under sections 112(d)(6) and 112(f) of the Clean Air Act and proposed to supplement the existing monitoring requirements with monthly leak detection using handheld instruments. The Agency will finalize amendments to this NESHAP on July 13, 2006. This supporting statement addresses only the additional recordkeeping and reporting requirements associated with the 2006 final revisions.

The National Perchloroethylene Air Emission Standards for Dry Cleaning Facilities (40 CFR part 63, subpart M) were proposed on December 9, 1991 and promulgated on September 22, 1993. EPA reviewed the standards under sections 112(d)(6) and 112(f) of the Clean Air Act and proposed on December 21, 2005 additional monitoring requirements beyond those promulgated on September 22, 1993. These additional requirements are being finalized on July 13, 2006. The additional requirements are monthly leak detection using handheld instruments. To comply with the final revisions to these dry cleaning National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP), owners or operators of dry cleaning facilities would read instructions to determine how they will be affected by the final revisions. Major and area sources will begin an enhanced leak detection and repair (LDAR) program that requires a handheld portable monitor. Owners and operators of major and area sources will conduct enhanced LDAR and keep monthly records of enhanced LDAR events. Major source facilities will purchase a photoionization detector or other perchloroethylene (PCE) gas analyzer and area sources will purchase a halogenated hydrocarbon leak detector. Owners and operators will incur the capital/startup cost of purchasing the monitors, plus ongoing annual operation and maintenance costs of those instruments. The total capital/startup cost for this ICR is $5,344,740, which includes one year of annual operation and maintenance. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart M. In addition to the final revisions, new and existing dry cleaning facilities would continue to comply with all requirements of the 1993 NESHAP. Control requirements are based on the type of dry cleaning machine and annual consumption of PCE. Owners or operators will continue to keep records and submit required reports to EPA or the delegated State regulatory authority. Notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance; and are required, in general, of all sources subject to NESHAP. Owners or operators subject to the dry cleaning NESHAP continue to maintain records and retain them for at least 5 years following the date of such measurements, reports, and records. Information collection requirements that were promulgated on September 22, 1993 in the dry cleaning NESHAP prior to the final amendments, as well the NESHAP general provisions (40 CFR part 63, subpart A), which are mandatory for all owners or operators subject to national emission standards, are documented in EPA ICR No. 1415.05. Approximately 28,000 sources are currently subject to the standard. Of those, 8,000 are located in states (CA, ME, NY, RI) that already require an enhanced LDAR program that is similar to the final NESHAP revisions. Therefore, 20,000 sources will be affected by the enhanced LDAR requirement. It is estimated that an additional 2,330 area sources per year will become subject to the regulation in the next 3 years, but that the overall number of facilities will remain constant due to retirement of old existing facilities. No new major sources are expected. The burden for new area sources is documented in EPA ICR No. 1415.05, therefore, burden for new area sources is not calculated in this ICR. The estimated labor cost of this ICR is $3,960,354.
