The National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Aerospace Manufacturing and
Rework Facilities (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart GG) were proposed on
June 6, 1994; promulgated on September 1, 1995 and amended on both
December 7, 2015 and August 3, 2016. These regulations apply to
existing and new aerospace manufacturing and rework facilities
where the total hazardous air pollutants (HAP) emitted are greater
than or equal to 10 tons per year of any combination of HAP, or
where the total HAP emitted are greater than or equal to 25 tons
per year of any combination of HAP. New facilities include those
that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of
proposal. Operations covered include: cleaning, primer and top coat
application, depainting, chemical milling maskant application,
handling and storage of waste, and specialty coating operations.
This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40
CFR Part 63, Subpart GG. 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 no change in the
burden hours or cost in this ICR compared to the hours and costs
described in supporting statement for the previous ICR. This is due
to two considerations. First, the regulations have had no
significant changes over the past three years and are not
anticipated to change over the next three years. Secondly, the
growth rate for the industry is very low, negative or non-existent,
so there is no significant change in the overall burden. Since
there are no changes in the regulatory recordkeeping and reporting
requirements and there is no significant industry growth, the labor
hours and cost figures in the previous ICR are used in this ICR and
there is no change in burden to industry. There is an increase in
burden hours and costs when compared to the numbers previously
entered in ROCIS. This is due to an administrative error in the
previous ICR where the hours and costs for Federal facilities run
by contractors were accounted for only in the supporting statement
and inadvertently omitted of the ROCIS entry.
