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 YYYY. Owners or operators of the affected facilities must submit an initial notification report, 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 are required semiannually at a minimum. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Stationary combustion turbines. Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (63 CFR part 63, subpart YYYY). Estimated number of respondents: 105 (rounded). Frequency of response: Initially, annually, and semiannually. Total estimated burden: 1,338 hours (per year). ``Burden'' is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $165,056 (per year), includes $10,750 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 903 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This increase is due to several adjustments, which are stated below: First, we have revised the number of respondents to make ICR estimates consistent with the economic impact analysis, which contains the most recent information on existing and new sources. Based on the analysis, an average of 96 existing and 8.7 new sources per year will be subject to the standard. By contrast, the most recently approved ICR estimated 22 existing and 9 new sources per year, and did not provide a clear basis for its estimates and underlying assumptions. The increase in labor burden and cost for both respondents and the Agency is primarily due to the revised number of sources, particularly existing sources which accounts for industry growth. Second, we have revised both respondent and Agency labor burdens and costs so that they accurately reflect the reporting and recordkeeping requirements associated with each subcategory. The previous ICR only reflected burdens attributed to new sources in the gas-fired and oil-fired subcategories, and did not account for any sources in the landfill/digester gas-fired subcategory. Finally, there is an increase in the capital/startup cost as compared to the previous ICR. This increase is the result of including contractor labor associated with catalyst inlet temperature monitor installation. This labor was presented in the previous ICR as a respondent burden rather than a capital cost. Since the contractor labor applies solely to a capital/startup activity, it should be presented it as a capital/startup cost rather than a respondent burden. We [[Page 43879]] also have updated the labor rates to reflect current private-industry rates. John Moses, Director, Collection Strategies Division.
