Title: NSPS for Polymeric Coating of Supporting Substrates
Facilities (40 CFR part 60, subpart VVV) (Renewal).
Abstract: New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) subpart VVV
applies to each coating operation and any onsite mix preparation
equipment used to prepare coating for the polymeric coating of
supporting substrates, that commences construction, modification or
reconstruction after April 30, 1987. The rule establishes standards for
volatile organic compound (VOC) use, emission reduction limits, and for
capture and recovery of VOC emissions. The monitoring and recordkeeping
requirements include: maintain records of startups, shutdowns,
malfunctions, periods where the continuous monitoring system is
inoperative 60.7(b), and of all measurements including performance test
measurements, operating parameters of monitoring device results for
catalytic or thermal incinerator, carbon adsorption system,
condensation system, vapor capture system and/or total enclosure
60.744(c-h); and monitor actual 12-month volatile organic compounds
(VOC) use and make semiannual estimate of projected VOC use, if
affected facility uses less than 95 Mg/year of VOC or is subject to
provisions specified in Sec. 60.742(c)(3) and other information
required by this part recorded in a file suitable for inspection. The
recordkeeping, monitoring and reporting requirements allow the
regulatory agencies to determine compliance with the standard. One-time
reports are required to identify the affected facilities and the
compliance method used. Semiannual reports of compliance and quarterly
reports of monitoring exceedances and periods of noncompliance are used
to verify compliance. Annual reports of when an affected facility first
exceeds a projected VOC use limit or the 12-month actual VOC limit are
used to determine the applicable requirements. Since none of the
required reports to the Agency have been deemed confidential business
information, they will not be treated as such. Responses are mandatory
(40 CFR part 60, subpart VVV).
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. The
recordkeeping, notification and reporting requirements of the standard
are critically important as they allow the Agency to determine to which
facilities the standards apply and they enable the Agency to monitor
initial and ongoing compliance with the standards. As much as possible,
in order to reduce the burden, the compliance monitoring and
recordkeeping requirements are designed to cover parameters that are
already being monitored as part of the manufacturing process.
Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 83
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; 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: Owners or operators of facilities
performing polymeric coating of supporting substrates.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 53.
Frequency of Response: Initial, on occasion, quarterly,
semiannually, monthly, annually.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 12,623 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Costs: $1,410,367, which includes $48,500
annualized capital/startup costs, $556,500 annual O&M costs, and
$805,367 annual labor costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 1,743 hours in the
total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of
Approved ICR Burdens. This decrease is due to a reduction in the
estimate of shutdowns and malfunctions occurring annually, a correction
in the number of reported respondents, and a recalculation of burden
resulting from reporting activities.
Dated: January 25, 2005.

Director, Collection Strategies Division.
