The New Source Performance Standards
(NSPS) for Nonmetallic Mineral Processing (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart
OOO) apply to the following affected facilities in fixed or
portable nonmetallic mineral processing plants: each crusher,
grinding mill, screening operation, bucket elevator, belt conveyor,
bagging operation, storage bin, and enclosed truck or railcar
loading station, which commenced construction, modification or
reconstruction after August 31, 1983. Also, crushers and grinding
mills at hot mix asphalt facilities that reduce the size of
nonmetallic minerals embedded in recycled asphalt pavement and
subsequent affected facilities up to, but not including, the first
storage silo or bin are subject to the provisions of the subpart.
New facilities include those that commenced construction,
modification, or reconstruction after the date of proposal. In
general, all NSPS 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 with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart OOO.
There is an adjustment increase
in the total estimated burden as currently identified in the OMB
Inventory of Approved Burdens. This increase is not due to any
program changes. The adjustment increase in burden from the
most-recently approved ICR is due to an increase in the number of
new or modified sources. The number of respondents in this ICR has
been adjusted to reflect growth from new or modified sources over
the past three years. There are no significant changes to the
capital costs because this ICR assumes a constant rate of new or
modified sources consistent with the prior ICR; there are no
operation and maintenance costs associated with this collection.
The adjustments result in an overall increase in burden.
