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.
