Title: NSPS for Beverage Can Surface Coating (Renewal).
ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 0663.11, OMB Control Number 2060-0001.
ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2012.
Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to either 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 NSPS at 40 CFR part 60, subpart A and any changes, or
additions to the Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 60, subpart WW.
Owners or operators of the affected facilities must make an initial
notification, performance tests, periodic reports, and 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 are also required
semiannually.
Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 43
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 beverage can
surface coating facilities.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 48.
Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 5,134.
Estimated Total Annual Cost: $597,892, which includes $497,092 in
labor costs, no capital/startup costs, and $100,800 in operation and
maintenance (O&M) costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in labor hours in this
ICR compared to the previous ICR. This is due to two considerations:
(1) The regulations have not changed over the past three years and are
not anticipated to change over the next three years; and (2) the growth
rate for the industry is very low, negative or non-existent, so there
is no significant change in the overall burden. However, there is an
increase in the total labor and Agency costs as currently identified in
the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This increase is not due to any
program changes. The change in cost estimates reflects updated labors
rates available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
