The National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Shipbuilding and Ship Repair
Facilities - Surface Coating were amended on November 21, 2011 to
finalize the residual risk and technology review by re-adopting
existing MACT standards, eliminated the startup, shutdown, and
malfunction (SSM) exemption, removed SSM plan requirement, and
revised SSM-associated recordkeeping and reporting requirements for
periods of malfunctions. The shipbuilding and ship repair industry
consists of establishments that build, repair, repaint, convert and
alter ships which are marine or fresh-water vessels used for
military or commercial operations. These regulations apply to only
the shipbuilding and repair surface coating operations that occur
at facilities that are major sources of hazardous air pollutants
(HAPs). New facilities include those that commenced construction or
reconstruction after the date of proposal. In general, all NESHAP
standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and
periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected
facilities. They 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. These notifications, reports,
and records are essential in determining compliance, and are
required of all affected facilities subject to NESHAP. This
information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR
Part 63, Subpart II.
There is an increase of 106
hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the
ICR currently approved by OMB. This adjustment in the burden
occurred because this ICR assumes all existing respondents will
have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each
year.
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 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);
