Title: NESHAP for Miscellaneous Metal Parts and Products (Renewal).
Abstract: This National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) requires initial notification, performance tests,
and periodic reports. Owners or operators also are 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. These notifications,
reports, and records are essential in determining compliance and are
required, in general, of all sources subject to NESHAP.
Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part shall
maintain a file of these documents, and retain the file for at least
five years following the date of such notifications, reports, and
records. All reports are sent to the delegated state or local
authority. In the event that there is no such delegated authority, the
reports are sent directly to the EPA regional office. This information
is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, Subpart
MMMM as authorized in Sections 112 and 114(a) of the Clean Air Act. The
required information consists of emissions data and other information
that have been determined not to be private.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB Control Number. The OMB Control Numbers for EPA's
regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15, and are
identified on the form and/or instrument, if applicable.
Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 198
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; to 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; to
adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable
instructions and requirements; to train personnel to be able to respond
to a collection of information; to search data sources; to complete and
review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise
disclose the information.
Respondents/Affected Entities: Miscellaneous metal parts and
products surface coating facilities.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 1,680.
Frequency of Response: Initial, Semiannually, On Occasion.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 675,050 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Costs: $56,642,905, which includes
$1,667,000 annualized capital/startup costs, $500,000 annual O&M costs,
and $54,475,905 annual labor costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 535,670 hours in
the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of
Approved ICR Burdens. This increase is due to the recalculation of
burden reflecting activities undertaken by facilities to comply with 40
CFR part 63, subpart MMMM over the three year period covered by this
ICR.
Dated: August 23, 2005.
