Title: NSPS for Metal Coil Surface Coating (Renewal).
ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 0660.09, OMB Control Number 2060-0107.
ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2005.
Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor
the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB.
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
in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the Federal Register when
approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, are displayed either by
publication in the Federal Register or by other appropriate means, such
as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The
display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is
consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.
Abstract: Respondents are owners or operators of metal coil surface
coating facilities. The standards apply to each metal coil surface
coating operation in which organic coatings are applied that commenced
construction, modification or reconstruction after January 5, 1981.
Owners or operators of the affected facilities described must make
initial reports when a source becomes subject, conduct and report on a
performance test, demonstrate and report on continuous monitor
performance, and maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any
startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected
facility. Semiannual reports of excess emissions are required. These
notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining
compliance, and in general, are required of all sources subject to New
Source Performance Standard (NSPS).
Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part shall
maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at least
two years following the date of such measurements, maintenance 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.
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 in 40 CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9 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 41
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; 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;
adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable
instructions and requirements that have subsequently changed; train
personnel to be able to
[[Page 76050]]
respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete
and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise
disclose the information.
Respondents/Affected Entities: Owners or operators of metal coil
surface coating facilities.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 158.
Frequency of Response: Initially, semiannually, on occasion.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 15,643.
Estimated Total Annual Cost: $1,594,680, which includes $0 annual
capital/startup costs, $331,800 annualized O&M costs, and $1,262,880
annual labor costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 1,112 hours in
the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of
Approved ICR Burdens. This increase is due to an expansion of the
calculations to include managerial and clerical labor rates. The
increase in O&M costs is due to an increase in equipment maintenance
costs.

Director, Collection Strategies Division.
