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 EEEE. 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 labor hours in this ICR compared to the previous
ICR. This is due to an increase in the estimated number of hours to
prepare semiannual reports. The previous ICR estimated 40 technical
hours per occurrence for this burden item. Based on consultation
comments received during development of this ICR, we revised the
estimate to 80 hours per semiannual report to more accurately
reflect industry burden. In addition, there is an increase in
respondent labor costs from the most recently approved ICR due to
adjustments in labor rates. This ICR uses updated labor rates to
calculate all burden costs.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
