Reconstruction Commenced After September 18, 2015 (40 CFR part 60,
subpart OOOOa) (Proposed Rule)
In accordance
with 5 CFR 1320, OMB is filing comment and withholding approval at
this time. The agency shall examine public comment in response to
the proposed rulemaking and will include in the supporting
statement of the next ICR--to be submitted to OMB at the final rule
stage--a description of how the agency has responded to any public
comments on the ICR, including comments on maximizing the practical
utility of the collection and minimizing the burden. OMB requests
that EPA submit the following as supplemental documents for the
information collection associated with the final rule: the
regulatory text that includes the ICR; the regulatory text that
includes the submission instructions; all documents referenced in
the SS-A to support estimates of the burden (e.g. TSD), and screen
shots of the electronic portal where the reporting requirements
will be submitted online to EPA. OMB expects in the final
supporting statement that all cost and labor numbers referenced in
the supporting statement tables include footnotes with citations to
the underlying data used to generate the numbers in the tables
including labelling when expert judgment was used. Lastly, OMB
requests that EPA submit a summary table in the supporting
statement that explains the change in burden compared to the last
time EPA promulgated a rule-making to make it clearer what burden
is changing in this rule compared to the last rule. This table
should include the rows and columns that are in the ICR summary
table in ROCIS and a clear explanation for the increase or decrease
in each table cell.

This ICR reflects the combined burden
of NSPS OOOOa if both the 2018 NSPS OOOOa Reconsideration Proposal
amendments and the 2019 NSPS OOOOa EO 13783 Review Proposal
Amendments are Finalized. The 2018 NSPS OOOOa Reconsideration
Proposal addresses issues raised in petitions and provide clarity,
streamlining and alignment of requirements leading to an overall
burden reduction to the regulated community. The 2019 NSPS OOOOa EO
13783 Review Proposal Amendments would remove sources in the
transmission and storage segment from the source category and will
lead to a reduction in the recordkeeping and reporting burden due
to eliminating requirements for these sources. The information
collected will be used by EPA and delegated state and local
agencies to determine the compliance status of sources in
production and processing still subject to the rule.
This ICR reflects proposed
reconsideration amendments under Executive Order 13783
recordkeeping and reporting burden from previously-submitted
estimates.
