The NESHAP for Plywood and Composite
Products covers both new and existing plywood and composite wood
products (PCWP) facilities. Plywood and composite products include,
but are not limited to plywood, veneer, particleboard, oriented
strand board, hardboard, fiberboard, medium density fiberboard,
laminated strand lumber, laminated veneer lumber, wood I-joists,
kiln-dried lumber and glue-laminated beams. Owners/operators of
plywood and composite products facilities are required to submit
initial notification, performance tests, and compliance status
reports. Also, respondents are 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. Semiannual reports are
required.
There is an adjustment increase
in the respondent burden from the most recently approved ICR. This
is not due to any program changes. The adjustment increase is the
result of a labor rate increase and a rounding correction. The
previous ICR rounded the number of hours required to record
continuous parameter information. This ICR uses a more accurate
estimate in calculating this burden.
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
