The National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Ferroalloys Production Area
Sources (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart YYYYYY) apply to existing and new
ferroalloy production facilities that are an area source of
hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions. 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.
The increase in burden from the
most recently approved ICR is due to an adjustment. Hours were
added to approximate the time spent by each source to familiarize
with the rule 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 proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
