Title: NESHAP for Coating Manufacturing Facilities (40 CFR part 63,
subpart HHHHH)
ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 2115.02, OMB Control Number 2060-0535.
ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on April 30, 2007.
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, and 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 new and existing
facilities that manufacture a miscellaneous coating and are located at,
or are part of, major sources of hazardous air pollutant (HAP)
emissions.
Owners, or operators of miscellaneous coating manufacturing
facilities subject to the standard must choose one of the compliance
options described in the standard, or install and monitor control
systems that reduce HAP emissions to the allowable emission rate.
Specifically, owners, or operators are required to install, operate,
and maintain a continuous monitoring system (CMS) to demonstrate
compliance with the emission limitations, operating limits and
equipment operating parameters as specified in the standard. Owners, or
operators are required to conduct equipment inspections and equipment
leak monitoring to demonstrate compliance.
Miscellaneous coating manufacturing facilities also are subject to
the general provisions at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A which apply to all
NESHAP subject facilities. These requirements include those associated
with the applicability determinations; notifications that the
facilities are subject to the rule; notifications of performance tests;
notifications of compliance status, including the results of
performance tests and design evaluations; and semiannual compliance
reports. In addition to the requirements of subpart A, many respondents
are required to submit a precompliance report and leak detection and
repair reports, and existing facilities that wish to implement
emissions averaging provisions must submit an emissions averaging plan.
All reports are to be submitted to the respondent's State, or local
agency, or to the EPA regional office, whichever has been delegated
enforcement authority by EPA. The information is used to determine
whether or not all sources subject to the rule are achieving the
emission limitations and work practice standards in the rule.
If the owner, or operator identifies any deviation resulting from a
known cause for which no Federally-approved or promulgated exemption
from an emission limitation, or work practice standard applies, a
compliance report must be submitted that includes all records that the
source is required to maintain that pertain to the periods during which
such deviation occurred, as well as data regarding: the magnitude of
each deviation; the reason for each deviation; a description of the
corrective action taken for each deviation, including action taken to
minimize each deviation and actions taken to prevent a recurrence; and
a copy of all quality assurance activities performed on any monitoring
protocol.
Owners, or operators of a miscellaneous coating manufacturing
facility must maintain a copy of all monitored equipment operating
parameter values that demonstrate compliance with the operating limits
in the rule, as well as records of inspections and results of equipment
leak monitoring that demonstrate compliance with the work practice
standards in the rule. Owners, or operators also are required to
maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup,
shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of a source, or any period
during which the monitoring system is inoperative. Those records must
be maintained for a minimum of five years. At a minimum, the most
recent two years of data must be retained onsite. The remaining three
years of data may be retained offsite.
Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 296
hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, and 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 which have subsequently changed; train
personnel to be able to 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: Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing
Facilities.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 133.
Frequency of Response: Initially, on occasion, and semiannually.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 167,832.
[[Page 15687]]
Estimated Total Annual Cost: $17,007,914, which includes $30,000
annualized capital costs, $2,785,200 in O&M costs, and $14,192,714 in
labor costs.
Changes in the Estimates: The increase in burden from the most
recently approved ICR is due to adjustments. The adjustments result
from the transition by the respondents from initial compliance with the
standard to continuing compliance with the standard plus the addition
of three new respondents to the burden total due to industry growth.
Dated: March 27, 2007.
