Abstract: The Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources: Sewage Sludge Incineration (SSI) Units Subpart LLLL, fulfill the requirements of sections 111 and 129 of the Clean Air Act (CAA), which require EPA to promulgate NSPS for solid waste incineration units. The information collection activities required by the NSPS include: siting requirements, operator training and qualification requirements, testing, monitoring and reporting requirements, one-time and periodic reports, and the maintenance of records. These activities will enable the Designated Administrator to determine initial compliance with the emission limits for the regulated pollutants, monitor compliance with operating parameters, and ensure that facilities conduct the proper planning and operator training.

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: There is an adjustment increase in the total estimated burden from the most recently approved ICR. The increase primarily results from an increase in the number of sources, as this ICR is updated to reflect the total number of SSI units subject to Subpart LLLL based on EPA’s 2016 SSI inventory. In addition, this ICR makes several corrections to the number of reports and reporting frequency to ensure consistency in calculating the respondent labor hours, Agency labor hours, and the total number of responses.
