Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Polymeric Coating of Supporting Substrates Facilities (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart VVV) apply to each existing and new coating operation and any on-site coating mix preparation equipment used to prepare coatings for the polymeric coating of supporting substrates. 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 VVV.

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: There is an adjustment increase in the respondent burden, and O&M cost from the most-recently approved ICR. This increase is not due to any program changes. The change in burden and costs is due to an increase in the number of respondents. This ICR assumes an industry growth rate of one new facility per year plus 4 new coating lines per year at existing facilities, totaling an increase of 5 respondents. There is also an increase in labor costs due to the use of updated labor rates. This ICR uses labor rates from the most recent Bureau of Labor Statistics report (September 2022) to calculate respondent burden costs. The industry growth also results in an increase in capital and O&M costs. Additionally, the capital and O&M costs were increased from 2008 to 2022 $ using the CEPCI Equipment Cost Index.
