NESHAP for Area Sources:
Polyvinyl Chloride and Copolymer Production, Primary Copper
Smelting, Secondary Copper Smelting, and Primary Nonferrous
Metals--Zinc, Cadmium, and Beryllium (Renewal)(40 CFR P
Extension without change of a currently approved collection
This information collection request
(ICR) covers the information collection requirements for area
sources at primary copper smelting, secondary copper smelting, and
primary zinc production (part of the primary nonferrous source
category). Information collection requirements for polyvinyl
chloride and primary beryllium production area source categories
are included in other ICR previously approved by OMB. Potential
respondents include three existing primary copper smelter and two
existing primary zinc production facilities; there are no existing
secondary copper smelters. The emissions control and compliance
provisions for existing primary copper smelting and primary zinc
production area sources are the same as the current Title V permit
requirements. The owner or operator would also be required to
submit initial notifications according to requirements in the
General Provisions (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart A). The owner or
operator of a new area source would be required to comply with all
requirements of the Provisions. No burden estimates are provided
for new primary copper smelters, secondary copper smelters, or
primary zinc production area sources because no new facilities are
expected during the next 3 years.
There is a small adjustment
increase in respondent burden hours and cost as currently
identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. The increase
is due to a change in assumption. In this ICR, we assume all
existing sources will take some time each year to re-familiarize
themselves with the regulatory requirements.
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.
