    Abstract: The NSPS for the Magnetic Tape Coating Facilities (40 CFR 
part 60, subpart SSS) were: Proposed on January 22, 1986; promulgated 
on October 3, 1988; and last amended on February 12, 1999. 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 SSS. 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 required semiannually at a minimum.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Magnetic tape coating facilities.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart SSS).
    Estimated number of respondents: 6 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, quarterly, and 
semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 2,017 hours (per year). ``Burden'' is 
defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $283,727 (per year), includes $86,400 
annualized capital or operation & maintenance 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 
adjustment increase in both the respondent and Agency burden costs due 
to an increase in labor rates.
