The National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Automobile and Light-duty
Truck Surface Coating were proposed on December 24, 2002,
promulgated on April 26, 2004, and amended on December 22, 2006 and
April 24, 2007. The NESHAP is codified at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart
IIII. This supporting statement addresses information collection
activities that will be imposed by the NESHAP for Automobile and
Light-duty Truck Surface Coating, 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 Automobile
and Light-duty Truck Surface Coating applies to each new and
existing affected source of HAP emissions at facilities that are
major sources and that perform surface coating operations on
automobiles and light-duty trucks. New facilities include those
that commenced construction or reconstruction after December 24,
2002. As part of the RTR for the NESHAP for Automobile and
Light-duty Truck Surface Coating, 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 5
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 IIII.
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 in year three for
conducting a performance test and reporting the results. There is
an increase in the capital/startup costs as compared with the costs
in the previous ICR. The requirement for periodic performance
testing requires five existing facilities to conduct a performance
test on five add-on control devices, with an estimate of two tests
being repeated. These facilities are not currently required to
perform testing as a condition of their part 70 operating
permits.
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.
