Affected Entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are Miscellaneous Metal Parts and Products Surface Coating Operations. Title: NESHAP for Miscellaneous Metal Parts and Products (40 CFR part 63, subpart MMMM). Abstract: The respondents are subject to the recordkeeping and reporting requirements at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A—General Provisions, that apply to all NESHAP sources. These requirements include recordkeeping and reporting for startup, shutdown, malfunctions, and semiannual reporting. Exceptions to the General Provisions for this source category are delineated in the standard and include initial notifications to the Agency for new, reconstructed and existing affected entities, and notifications of compliance status. The information must be collected in order for the Agency to determine compliance with the emission limitations in the standard. Responses to this collection of information are mandatory under the Clean Air Act. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless the agency displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA’s standards are listed at 40 CFR part 9. The EPA would like to solicit comments to: (i) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Agency, including whether the information will have practical utility; (ii) evaluate the accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (iii) enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (iv) minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. Burden Statement: In the previously approved ICR, the estimated number of respondents for this information collection was 1,590 with 180 responses per year. The annual industry recordkeeping and reporting burden for this collection of information was 139,380 hours. On the average, each respondent reported 0.11 times per year and 774 hours were spent preparing E:\FR\FM\08MRN1.SGM 08MRN1 11240 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 44 / Tuesday, March 8, 2005 / Notices each response. The operation and maintenance costs associated with continuous emission monitoring (CEM) equipment in the previous ICR was $3,600, and there were no costs associated with startup/shutdown of the CEM equipment. 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00048 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS) IRIS is a database that contains information on the potential adverse human health effects that may result from chronic (or lifetime) exposure to specific chemical substances found in the environment. The database (available on the Internet at https:// www.epa.gov/iris) contains qualitative and quantitative health effects information for more than 500 chemical substances that may be used to support the first two steps (hazard identification and dose-response evaluation) of the risk assessment process. When supported by available data, the database provides oral reference doses (RfDs) and inhalation reference concentrations (RfCs) for chronic health effects, and oral slope factors and inhalation unit risks for carcinogenic effects. Combined with specific exposure information, government and private entities use IRIS to help characterize public health risks of chemical substances in a site-specific situation and thereby support risk management decisions designed to protect public health. EPA’s IRIS program is developing a health assessment on naphthalene carcinogenicity. A draft assessment was peer reviewed in July, 2004. One of the topics discussed at the peer review workshop was the need for further research to elucidate naphthalene’s carcinogenic mode of action. The Agency has decided to hold a peer consultation workshop on this topic before determining a course of action on the IRIS assessment of naphthalene. This action provides public notice of the workshop. EPA’s E-Docket EPA has established an official public docket for this action under Docket ID No. ORD–2005–0008. The official public docket consists of the documents specifically referenced in this action and other information related to this action. Although a part of the official docket, the public docket does not include Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information whose disclosure is restricted by statute. The official public docket is the collection of materials that is available for public viewing at the Office of Environmental Information (OEI) Docket in the Headquarters EPA Docket Center, (EPA/DC) EPA West Building, Room B102, 1301 Constitution Ave., NW., Washington, DC.
