Abstract: The currently approved ICR
addresses certification and compliance
requirements for the following
industries: Nonroad (NR) compressionignition (CI) engines and equipment,
marine CI engines in Categories 1 and 2;
and heavy-duty (HD) engines. In this
revision, the following ICRs are being
incorporated, either in whole or in part,
to eliminate redundancy: Control of
Emissions from New Marine
Compression-Ignition Engines at or
Above 30 Liters per Cylinder (2060–
0641); Engine Emission Defect
Information Reports and Voluntary
Emission Recall Reports (2060–0048);
Emissions Certification and Compliance
Requirements for Locomotives and
Locomotive Engines (2060–0392); and
Certification and Compliance
Requirements for Medium- and HeavyDuty Engines and Vehicles (2060–0678).
With this consolidation, we are
combining all certification and
compliance burden associated with the
heavy-duty and nonroad compressionignition engine, equipment and vehicle
industries under a single ICR.
Title II of the Clean Air Act (CAA),
charges EPA with issuing certificates of
conformity for those engines and
vehicles that comply with applicable
emission requirements. Such a
certificate must be issued before those
products may be legally introduced into
commerce. To apply for a certificate of
conformity, manufacturers are required
to submit descriptions of their planned
production, descriptions of emission
control systems and test data. The
emission values achieved during
certification testing may also be used in
the Averaging, Banking, and Trading
(ABT) Program, which allows engine
manufacturers to bank credits for engine
families that emit below the standard

PO 00000

Frm 00039

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

and use the credits to certify engine
families that emit above the standard.
The CAA also mandates EPA verify
that manufacturers have translated their
certified prototypes into mass produced
engines; and that these engines comply
with emission standards throughout
their useful lives. EPA verifies this
through Compliance Programs,
including Production Line Testing
(PLT), In-use Testing and Selective
Enforcement Audits (SEAs). PLT is a
self-audit program that allows marine
engine manufacturers to monitor their
products’ emissions profile with
statistical certainty and minimize the
cost of correcting errors through early
detection. In-use testing verifies
compliance with emission standards
throughout an engine family’s useful
life. Through SEAs, EPA verifies that
test data submitted by engine
manufacturers is reliable and testing is
performed according to EPA regulations.
Under the Transition Program for
Equipment Manufacturers (TPEM),
NRCI equipment manufacturers may
delay compliance with Tier 4 standards
for up to seven years if they comply
with certain limitations. The Program
seeks to ease the impact of new
emission standards on equipment
manufacturers as they often need to
redesign their products.

Respondents/affected entities:
Manufacturers of engines, equipment
and vehicles in the nonroad
compression ignition (CI), marine CI,
locomotives and medium- and heavyduty on-highway industries; Marine CI
vessel owners and operators and owners
of HD truck fleets.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Regulated manufacturers must respond
to this collection if they wish to sell
their products in the US, as prescribed
by Section 206(a) of the CAA (42 U.S.C.
7521). Participation in some programs
such as ABT and TPEM is voluntary,
but once a manufacturer has elected to
participate, it must submit the required
information.
Estimated number of respondents:
468 (total).
Frequency of response: Quarterly,
Annually, On Occasion.
Total estimated burden: 127,900
hours per year. Burden is defined at 5
CFR 1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $21,639,590 (per
year), which includes an estimated
$11,682,548 annualized capital or
maintenance and operational costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is a
net decrease of 73,137 hours in the total
estimated burden. This decrease is due
to: (1) A decrease in TPEM respondents;
(2) respondents’ reliance on carry-over
testing data; and 3) eliminating
duplication.

Abstract: The New Source
Performance Standards (NSPS) for
Polymeric Coating of Supporting
Substrates Facilities (40 CFR part 60,
subpart VVV) apply to each existing and
new coating operation and any on-site
coating mix preparation equipment used

PO 00000

Frm 00040

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

to prepare coatings for the polymeric
coating of supporting substrates. New
facilities include those that commenced
construction, modification, or
reconstruction after the date of proposal.
In general, all NSPS 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
with 40 CFR part 60, subpart VVV.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities:
Polymeric coating facilities.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart
VVV).
Estimated number of respondents: 62
(total).
Frequency of response: Initially,
quarterly and semiannually.
Total estimated burden: 14,200 hours
(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $2,190,000 (per
year), which includes $700,000 in
annualized capital/startup and/or
operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is a
small adjustment increase in the total
estimated burden and capital and O&M
costs as currently identified in the OMB
Inventory of Approved Burdens. This
increase is not due to any program
changes. The change in the burden and
cost estimates occurred due to an
increase in the respondent universe.
