Abstract: Owners and operators of ammonium sulfate manufacturing plants are required to comply with reporting and record keeping requirements for the general provisions of 40 CFR part 60, subpart A, as well as for the applicable standards found in 40 CFR part 60, subpart PP. This includes submitting initial notification reports, performance tests and periodic reports and results, and maintaining 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. These reports are used by EPA to determine compliance with the standards. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Ammonium sulfate manufacturing facilities. Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart PP). Estimated number of respondents: Two (total). Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally and semiannually. Total estimated burden: 286 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $28,700 (per year). There are no includes annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of two labor hours from the most recently approved ICR due to a change in assumptions. The previous ICR assumed that only new respondents would spend time to read and review the regulatory requirements. This ICR assumes that each respondent will spend one hour annually re-familiarizing themselves with the rule. Courtney Kerwin, Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division.
