The affected entities are subject to
the General Provisions of the NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A,
and any changes, or additions to the Provisions specified at 40 CFR
part 63, subpart HHHHH. Owners or operators of the affected
facilities must submit initial notification, performance tests, and
periodic reports and results. Owners or operators are also required
to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup,
shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility,
or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative.
Reports, at a minimum, are required semiannually.
There is an adjustment increase
in the respondent burden hours and costs as currently identified in
the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This increase is not due to
any program changes. The adjustment increase in burden from the
most recently approved ICR is due to a projected growth in the
respondent universe, which results in an increase in the total
number of sources, as well as updated labors rates available from
the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The growth in respondent universe
also results in an increase in the total O&M costs. There is
also a decrease in the EPA burden hours and costs due to a
correction in this ICR. The previous ICR assumed that all existing
sources have submitted an emission averaging plan, but incorrectly
presented EPA burden for the annual review of emission averaging
plans. This ICR corrects this inconsistency, which results in a
decrease in Agency burden.
