The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Asphalt Processing and Asphalt Roofing Manufacturing apply to both existing facilities and new facilities that manufacture asphalt roofing products or oxidized asphalt that are major sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) or are collocated at major sources. New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of the original proposal (November 21, 2001). 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. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart LLLLL.
There is an increase in burden from the most-recently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This increase is not due to any program changes. This ICR merges the burdens from EPA ICR Number 2029.08 and EPA ICR No. 2598.02 (OMB No. 2060-0724), and from the ICR that the RTR amendments finalized on March 12, 2020 at 85 FR 14526. The prior RTR amendments revised the rule to add periodic testing requirements which increased burden, and resulted in an increase in periodic testing costs and an increase in operation and maintenance (O&M) costs for control devices. The regulations are not anticipated to change over the next three years. The growth rate for this industry is very low or non-existent. There are no changes in the capital/startup costs as no new sources have been constructed.
