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, subpart M. 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 Perchloroethylene Dry
Cleaning Facilities (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart M) were proposed on
December 9, 1991, promulgated on September 22, 1993, and most
recently-amended on July 11, 2008. These regulations apply to
existing and new dry-cleaning facilities that use perchloroethylene
(PCE). New facilities include those that commenced either
construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This
information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR
Part 63, Subpart M. 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 adjustment increase
in the total estimated burden as currently identified in the OMB
Inventory of Approved Burdens. This increase is not due to any
program changes. The adjustment increase in burden from the most
recently-approved ICR is due to an increase in the number of
existing major sources. The EPA’s records indicate that there are
currently 20 major sources subject to this NESHAP; the previous
estimate of 12 major sources was based on the final amendments to
the NESHAP in 2008. There is also an adjustment increase in
operation and maintenance costs due to the increase in the number
of respondents. Finally, there is an adjustment increase in labor
costs to account for costs from major source facilities operated by
Federal employees versus the private sector.
