Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Paper and Other Web Coating were proposed on September 13, 2000, and promulgated on December 4, 2002. These regulations apply to new and existing paper and other web coating facilities that include web coating lines engaged in the coating of metal webs used in flexible packaging, and web coating lines engaged in the coating of fabric substrates for use in pressure sensitive tape and abrasive materials. 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 JJJJ. Amendments to the NESHAP are being finalized as a result of the residual risk and technology review (RTR) required under the Clean Air Act (CAA) (as discussed further below). 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 failures to meet applicable standards, 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. The finalized NESHAP amendments to the rule eliminate the startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM) exemption; remove the SSM plan requirement; add periodic performance testing; add electronic submittal of notifications, semiannual reports and performance test reports; and make technical and editorial changes. The remaining portions of the NESHAP will remain unchanged.

Short Statement: This ICR is prepared for final amendments to the NESHAP for Paper and Other Web Coating Manufacturing (40 CFR, Part 63, Subpart JJJJ). These final NESHAP amendments will: (1) adjust references to the Part 63 General Provisions (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart A) and revise provisions in the NESHAP (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ) to eliminate the SSM exemption and SSM plan requirement; (2) add periodic performance testing; (3) add electronic submittal of notifications, semiannual reports and performance test reports; and (4) make technical and editorial changes. The number of affected facilities changed from the estimate in the 2018 ICR renewal request for comments due to updates to the number of affected facilities based on EPAs recent RTR efforts and subsequent updates from other information sources. The burden estimate for familiarizing with regulatory requirements was increased to reflect the actual time it would take industry to review the proposed amendments. Burden estimates were added for the industry to prepare for/attend periodic performance tests and record failures to meet standards and actions taken to minimize emissions. Burden estimates were removed for developing SSM plans and submitting periodic SSM reports.
