OMB files this comment in accordance with 5 CFR 1320.11( c ). This OMB action is not an approval to conduct or sponsor an information collection under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This action has no effect on any current approvals. If OMB has assigned this ICR a new OMB Control Number, the OMB Control Number will not appear in the active inventory. For future submissions of this information collection, reference the OMB Control Number provided.

The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Surface Coating of Metal Cans were proposed on January 15, 2003, promulgated on November 13, 2003, and most recently amended on January 6, 2006. The NESHAP is codified at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart KKKK. This supporting statement addresses information collection activities that will be imposed by the NESHAP for Surface Coating of Metal Cans, including activities proposed to be added based on the residual risk and technology review (RTR) required under the Clean Air Act (CAA). The NESHAP for Surface Coating of Metal Cans applies to each new and existing affected source of HAP emissions at facilities that are major sources and are engaged in the surface coating of metal cans and ends (including decorative tins) and metal crowns and closures. New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after January 15, 2003.
As part of the RTR for the NESHAP for Surface Coating of Metal Cans, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is not proposing to revise the emission limit requirements. The EPA is proposing to require periodic air emissions testing to measure organic HAP destruction or removal efficiency at the inlet and outlet of the add-on control device, or control device outlet concentration of organic HAP, once every five years for existing and new surface coating affected sources using the emission rate with add-on controls compliance option. The EPA is proposing to revise the startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM) provisions of the Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) rule and proposing the use of electronic data reporting for future performance test data submittals, notifications, and reports. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart KKKK.
In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests (if sources are using add-on controls to demonstrate compliance), 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 deviation from an emission limitation (either a numerical emission limit, an operating limit, or an equipment or work practice standard), 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 the NESHAP.
There is an increase in the labor hours per respondent in this ICR as compared to the previous ICR. This situation is due to four considerations: 1) increased time in year one to become familiar with the amended rules, 2) increased time in year one to re-evaluating previously developed SSM record systems, 3) increased time in year one to become familiar with CEDRI and the electronic reporting form for the semiannual report, and 4) time required for conducting a performance test and reporting the results in year three.
There is an increase in the capital/startup costs as calculated in section 6(b)(iii) compared with the costs in the previous ICR. The requirement for periodic performance testing requires one existing facility to conduct a performance test. This facility is not currently required to perform testing as a condition of their part 70 operating permit.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
