EPA is proposing a National Emission
Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants for the Paints and Allied
Products Manufacturing area source category. The proposed standards
include management practices and equipment standards for new and
existing plants based on the generally available control technology
(GACT) for this category. Potential respondents subject to the area
source NESHAP include an estimated 2,190 existing Paints and Allied
Products Manufacturing facilities. The total annual responses
attributable to this ICR consist of one-time notifications for each
existing facility. The owner or operator would be required to
submit the initial notification by the compliance date, based on
requirements in the proposed rule. No burden estimates are provided
for new sources because no new facilities are expected to be
affected sources during the next three years.
EPA is under court order to
promulgate standards for area sources. This increase burden results
from a new area rule 40 CFR part 63, subpart CCCCCCC under section
112 of the Clean Air Act.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
