NESHAP for Clay Ceramics
Manufacturing, Glass Manufacturing and Secondary Nonferrous Metals
Processing Area Sources (40 CFR Part 63, Subparts RRRRRR, SSSSSS,
and TTTTTT) (Renewal)
Extension without change of a currently approved collection
Upon
resubmission, the agency must update the burden estimates to
accurately reflect the number of respondents in industry and verify
that there are no reporting or recordkeeping requirements for
States in 40 CFR Part 63, Subparts RRRRRR, SSSSSS, and TTTTTT. The
agency must also ensure that burden is calculated for all of the
requirements and that the requirements and burden tables are
consistent throughout the supporting statement. The agency must
provide screen shots of the electronic mode of collection that is
used for this information collection. In addition, the agency must
have a burden statement that aligns with the requirements under 5
CFR 1320.8(b)(3) and placement of the OMB control number for
on-line submissions on the initial screen per 5 CFR
1320.3(f)(2).

The National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Clay Ceramics Manufacturing,
Glass Manufacturing, and Secondary Nonferrous Metals Processing
Area Sources were proposed on September 20, 2007, and promulgated
on December 26, 2007. These regulations apply to the following
existing and new facilities: 1) clay ceramics manufacturing
facilities that process more than 50 tons per year of wet clay and
are area sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAP); 2) glass
manufacturing facilities that use continuous furnaces to produce
glass that contains HAP as raw materials and are area sources of
HAP; and 3) secondary nonferrous metals processing facilities that
are area sources of HAP. Clay ceramics manufacturing facilities
include facilities that manufacture pressed tile, sanitaryware,
dinnerware, or pottery with an atomized glaze spray booth or kiln
that fires glazed ceramic ware. Glass manufacturing facilities
include facilities that manufacture flat glass, glass containers,
or pressed and blown glass by melting a mixture of raw materials,
to produce molten glass and form the molten glass into sheets,
containers, or other shapes. Secondary nonferrous metals processing
facilities means brass and bronze ingot making, secondary magnesium
processing, or secondary zinc processing plants that use furnace
melting operations to melt post-consumer nonferrous metal scrap to
make products including bars, ingots, blocks, or metal powders. New
facilities include those that commenced construction, modification
or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is
being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subparts
RRRRRR, SSSSSS, and TTTTTT. 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.
There is an increase in the
respondent labor hours in this ICR compared to the previous ICR.
The increase is not due to a change in program requirements. The
number of respondents expected to refamiliarize with the regulatory
requirements each year has been increased to include all 82
respondents. The annual O&M costs for glass furnace inspections
have been adjusted upward to reflect current industry labor rates
for technical workers. The regulations have not changed over the
past three years and are not anticipated to change over the next
three years. The growth rate for the industry is very low, negative
or non-existent.
