The New Source Performance Standards
(NSPS) for Metal Coil Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart TT)
apply to the following surface coating lines in the metal coil
surface coating industry: each prime coat operation; each finish
coat operation; and each prime and finish coat operation cured
simultaneously, where the finish coat is applied wet-on-wet over
the prime coat. In general, all NSPS standards require initial
notification reports, 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
TT.
There is an increase in the
respondent and Agency burdens and the number of responses currently
identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. The increase
is attributed to several adjustments: 1) this renewal allows time
for each source to re-familiarize themselves with the rule
requirements each year; 2) this renewal adjusted the frequency of
recordkeeping requirements to match the requirements in the rule.
(Daily records are required for temperature for units using
incinerator while monthly records of data used to support VOC
calculations are required for sources that do not use an
incinerator); 3) this renewal assumed 10 percent of the sources
would have excess emissions and would have to report quarterly
instead of semi-annually; and 4) this ICR uses updated labor rates
from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and OPM to calculate the
respondent and Agency cost burdens, respectively. There is a
decrease in the capital and O&M costs currently identified in
the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This decrease is not due to
any program changes. The decrease is attributed to an adjustment.
The previous renewal had estimated O&M costs related to
temperature monitoring for all sources; however, only 80 percent of
the sources are anticipated to comply with the rule using
incineration.
