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 UUU. 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 the Petroleum Refineries: Catalytic Cracking Units, Catalytic Reforming Units, and Sulfur Recovery Units apply to three types of affected units at major source petroleum refineries: fluid catalytic cracking units (FCCU) for catalyst regeneration, catalytic reforming units (CRU), and sulfur recovery units (SRU). The rule also includes requirements for by-pass lines associated with the three affected units. New facilities include those that commenced construction, or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart UUU. 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 a moderate decrease in burden in this ICR compared to the previous ICR. This ICR reflects the burden following implementation of the December 1, 2015 final Subpart UUU rule amendments. The decrease in the burden and cost estimates occurred because refineries are assumed to have implemented the initial 2015 rule compliance activities since the standard has been in effect for more than three years. The previous ICR reflected those burdens and costs associated with the initial activities for subject facilities. This includes conducting performance test(s) and establishing or revising recordkeeping systems. This ICR, by in large, reflects the on-going burden and costs for existing facilities. Activities for existing sources include 5-year performance tests, continuous monitoring of pollutants, and the submission of semiannual reports. This ICR also corrects the Agency burden from the prior ICR to account for burden for review of submitted RATA for units using CEMS.
