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 NNNNN. 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 increase in burden
hours to the respondent as compared to the most recently approved
ICR. The increase is due to industry growth in the past three
years, resulting in additional number of respondents that are
subject to this standard. The growth in respondent universe also
results in an increase in the number of responses and total O&M
costs. In addition, there is an increase in burden costs to both
the respondent and the Agency due to an adjustment in labor rates.
This ICR uses the most recent labor rates from the Bureau of Labor
Statistics in calculating the labor costs.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
