The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Pesticide Active Ingredient Production (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart MMM) apply to existing and new facilities engaged in the production of pesticide active ingredients (PAIs) that emit HAPs. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification or reconstruction after the date of proposal. 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 with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart MMM.

The increase in burden from the most-recently approved ICR is due to several adjustments. 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 existing respondents. The number of estimated facilities subjected to this rule has increased to 19 based on a review of EPAs Enforcement and Compliance History Online and data collected during rulemakings for related chemical sectors. Based on comments received from industry, we have also updated the burden to reflect that at least one existing respondent will install a new process unit per year. This ICR adjusts the burden to reflect certain one-time activities for these sources, including submittal of an updated pre-compliance report, notifications of initial performance test or performance evaluation, updates to facility record management systems, and development of a quality assurance/quality control plan for continuous monitoring systems. A slight increase in labor rates from the most-recent Bureau of Labor Statistics report (March 2021) also contributes to the increase in burden costs. This ICR also adjusts the capital and operation and maintenance costs to reflect comments provided by industry. The ICR capital costs have been adjusted to account for at least one existing respondent that will install a new process unit per year. Additionally, this ICR adjusts the operation and maintenance costs for pressure relief device, process vent, and wastewater monitoring based on estimates provided by industry.
