Title: NESHAP for the Surface Coating of Large Household and
Commercial Appliances (Renewal).
ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1954.05, OMB Control Number 2060-0457.
ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on July 31, 2012. Under
OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the
collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB.
Abstract: The affected entities are subject to the General
Provisions of the NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A, and any changes,
or additions to the Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, subpart
NNNN. Owners or operators of the affected facilities must submit
initial notification, performance tests, and periodic reports and
results.
Owners or operators 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. Reports, at a minimum, are required
semiannually.
All reports are sent to the delegated state or local authority. In
the event that there is no such delegated authority, the reports are
sent directly to the EPA regional office. This information is being
collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart NNNN, as
authorized in section 112 and 114(a) of the Clean Air Act. The required
information consists of emissions data and other information that have
been determined to be private.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB Control Number. The OMB Control Numbers for the EPA
regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15, and are
identified on the form and/or instrument, if applicable.
Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 98
hours per response. ``Burden'' means the total time, effort, or
financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain,
or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This
includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire,
install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of
collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information;
adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable
instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; train
personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search
data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and
transmit or otherwise disclose the information.
Respondents/Affected Entities: Owners or operators of surface
coating of large household and commercial appliances facilities.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 102.
Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 32,634.
Estimated Total Annual Cost: $3,721,318, which includes $3,126,918
in labor costs, $64,000 in capital/startup costs, and $530,400 in
operation and maintenance (O&M) costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the
total estimated burden hours and cost for both the respondents and the
Agency as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved
Burdens. This change is due to both an increase in the average number
of respondents subject to the standard and an increase in labor rates.
This ICR uses updated labor rates for each of the three labor
categories.
There is also an increase in the O&M costs to the respondents. The
costs were updated to reflect comments received during consultation.
