The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerators (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart Ec) were proposed on February 27, 1995, promulgated on September 15, 1997, and amended on both October 6, 2009, and February 27, 2014. The original standards applied to either owners or operators of Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerators (HMIWI) for which construction commenced after June 20, 1996, or for which modification commenced after March 16, 1998, but no later than April 6, 2010. Sources subject to the original standards are now covered under the revised Emission Guidelines for HMIWI at 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart Ce. This information request covers the reporting and recordkeeping requirements associated with the revised NSPS, which apply to new facilities only. New facilities include those that commenced construction after December 1, 2008 or commenced modification after April 6, 2010. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart Ec. 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, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NSPS.

There is an increase in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently-approved by OMB. This is due to an increase in the estimated number of sources subject to the regulations and is not caused by program changes. We estimate the industry will continue to grow at the rate of one new source per year. This results in increases in the respondent labor hours, number of responses, and capital and O&M costs.
