The New Source Performance Standards
(NSPS) for Automobile and Light Duty Truck Surface Coating
Operations were proposed on October 5, 1979, promulgated on
December 24, 1980, and amended on October 17, 2000. These
regulations apply to the following automobile and light duty truck
assembly plant operations: each prime coat operation, guide coat
operation, and top coat operation commencing construction,
modification or reconstruction after October 5, 1979. This
information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR
Part 60, Subpart MM. 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 overall adjustment
increase in the change in burden in this ICR compared to the
previous renewal. The increase is not due to any program changes.
The burden has been adjusted to reflect an increase in the
estimated number of sources, based on a continued growth rate of 2
new facilities per year. The increase in the number of respondents
also results in an increase in the number of responses and in the
operation and maintenance costs.
