ACTION: Notice. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency has submitted an information collection request (ICR), ``NESHAP for Flexible Polyurethane Foam Fabrication (40 CFR part 63, subpart MMMMM) (Renewal)'' (EPA ICR No. 2027.06, OMB Control No. 2060-0516, to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).

Abstract: The affected entities are subject to the General Provisions of the NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart A), and any changes, or additions to the Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, subpart MMMMM. Owners or operators of the affected facilities must submit initial notification reports, 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. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Flexible polyurethane foam fabrication facilities. Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart MMMMM). Estimated number of respondents: 17 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, semiannually, and annually. Total estimated burden: 18,900 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $1,930,000 (per year), including $29,500 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase in the total estimated respondent burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This burden increase is due to adjustments EPA has made to account for industry growth that has occurred since the ICR was last approved. EPA has also updated corresponding labor costs to reflect current rates referenced from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. EPA has similarly adjusted the Agency labor burden to reflect industry growth over the past three years and has updated labor costs to reflect rates referenced from the Office of Personnel Management. There is an increase in the total annual O&M cost as compared to the previous ICR. The previous ICR's estimate only reflected those costs associated with new sources. The resulting omission of O&M costs also incurred by existing sources resulted in a significant underestimation of the total cost; therefore, EPA has both reconciled the noted discrepancy and increased the total annual O&M cost accordingly.
