The National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Metal Coil Surface Coating
Plants (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart SSSS) apply to existing facilities
and new facilities that are major sources of hazardous air
pollutants (HAP) at which a coil coating line is operated. A coil
coating line is a process in which special equipment is used to
apply an organic coating to the surface of metal coils; the
affected source at each plant site is the collection of all coil
coating lines at the site. The provisions of this Subpart do not
apply to coil coating lines that are part of research or laboratory
equipment or coil coating lines on which at least 85 percent of the
metal coil coated, based on surface area, is less than 0.15
millimeters (0.006 inches) thick, unless the coating line is
controlled by a common control device. 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 with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart SSSS.
There is a decrease in the
total estimated burden and the number of responses as currently
identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This decrease
is not due to any program changes. The decrease is a result of an
adjustment made to the estimated number of respondents. Based on
data from internal Agency experts, we estimate 48 major sources are
currently subject to Subpart SSSS. The total number of respondents
is significantly reduced since the last ICR renewal based on the
delisting of methyl ethyl ketone as a HAP.
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 following is a summary of the topics, regarding
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);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
