Titles: Background Checks for
Contractor Employees (Renewal).
Abstract: EPA uses contractors to
perform services throughout the nation
with regard to environmental
emergencies involving the release, or
threatened release, of oil, radioactive
materials or hazardous chemicals that
may potentially affect communities and
the surrounding environment. Releases
may be accidental, deliberate, or may be
caused by natural disasters. Emergency
responders are available 24 hours-a-day
to an incident, and respond with
necessary personnel and equipment to
eliminate dangers to the public and
environment. Contractors responding to
any of these types of incidents are
responsible for conducting background
checks and applying Governmentestablished suitability criteria in
determining whether employees are
acceptable to perform on given sites or
on specific projects prior to contract
employee performance. The information
to be collected under the ICR for
Background Checks for Contractor
Employees covers citizenship or valid
visa, criminal convictions, weapons
offenses, felony convictions, parties
prohibited from receiving federal
contracts. The Contractor shall maintain
records of all background checks.
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 1 hour 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
PO 00000

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:
Entities potentially affected by this
action are contractors involved with
Emergency Response that have
significant security concerns, as
determined by the Contracting Officer
on a case-by-case basis, to provide
qualified personnel that meet the
background check requirements
developed by EPA.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
1,000.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
1,000.
Estimated Total Annual Cost:
$179,000, which includes $0 annual
capital/startup and O&M costs, and
$179,000 annual labor costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is a
no change in the number of hours in the
total estimated burden currently
identified in the OMB Inventory of
Approved ICR Burdens.
Dated: September 13, 2005.

A. For All ICRs
The listed ICRs address Clean Air Act
information collection requirements in
standards (i.e., regulations) which have
mandatory recordkeeping and reporting
requirements. Records collected under
the New Source Performance Standards
(NSPS) must be retained by the owner
or operator for at least two years and the
records collected under the National
Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) must be retained
by the owner or operator for at least five
years. In general, the required
collections consist of emissions data
and other information deemed not to be
private.
In the absence of such information
collection requirements, enforcement
personnel would be unable to determine
whether the standards are being met on
a continuous basis, as required by the
Clean Air Act.
The Agency computed the burden for
each of the recordkeeping and reporting
requirements applicable to the industry
for the currently approved Information
Collection Requests (ICRs) listed in this
notice. Where applicable, the Agency
identified specific tasks and made
assumptions, while being consistent
with the concept of the Paperwork
Reduction Act.

(1) NSPS for Petroleum Dry Cleaners
(40 CFR Part 60, Subpart JJJ); EPA ICR
Number 0997.08; OMB Control Number
2060–0108; expiration date June 30,
2006.
Affected Entities: Petroleum dry
cleaning facilities.
Abstract: The New Source
Performance Standards (NSPS) for the
Petroleum Dry Cleaning Industry (40
CFR Part 60, Subpart JJJ) were proposed
on December 14, 1982, and promulgated
on September 21, 1984. These standards
apply to the owners or operators of
petroleum dry cleaning facilities
constructed, reconstructed, or modified
after December 14, 1982, whose total
manufacturer’s rated dryer capacity is
equal to or greater than 38 kilograms (84
pounds).
The affected entities are subject to the
General Provisions of the NSPS at 40
CFR part 60, subpart A and any changes,
or additions to the General Provisions
specified at 40 CFR part 60, subpart JJJ.
In general, all NSPS standards require
initial notifications, performance tests,
and periodic reports. Owners or
operators are also 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 of all
sources subject to NSPS.
Burden Statement: In the previously
approved ICR, the estimated number of
respondents for this information

The affected entities are subject to the
General Provisions of the NSPS at 40
CFR part 60, subpart A and any changes,
or additions to the General Provisions
specified at 40 CFR part 60, subpart
AAAA. Owners or operators must
conduct initial compliance tests for all
pollutants, operating parameters, and
continuous monitoring systems. Annual
performance tests and continuous
monitoring systems (CEMS) for certain
pollutants and operating parameters is
also required. Owners or operators of
small MWC units must submit an initial

Manufacturing Steel Pickling, 40 CFR
Part 63, Subpart FFFFF, were proposed
on July 13, 2001 (66 FR 36835), and
promulgated on May 20, 2003 (68 FR
27645). This rulemaking establishes
emission limits for particulate matter
and/or opacity limits, which act as
surrogates for individual metallic
hazardous air pollutants (HAPs)
limitations for six discharge points.
Operating limits are also required for
certain capture systems and control
devices. The rule also includes an
operating limit for the oil content of the
sinter plant feedstock to reduce organic
HAP. As an alternative, a facility may
choose to monitor emissions of volatile
organic compounds instead of oil
content.
The monitoring, recordkeeping, and
reporting requirements outlined in the
rule are similar to those required for
other NESHAP regulations. Plants are
required to conduct a performance test
to demonstrate initial compliance with
each emission and opacity limit and
establish operating limits for capture
systems and control devices. A
performance test is also required to
demonstrate compliance with the
operating limit on the oil content of
sinter plant feedstock or for volatile
organic compounds.
Consistent with the NESHAP General
Provisions (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart A),
respondents submit one-time
notifications of applicability, a
performance test result for the primary
emission control device, and
semiannual reports including periods of
monitoring exceedances. Plants also
must develop and implement a Startup,
Shutdown, and Malfunction Plan
(SSMP). An immediate report is
required if actions taken in response to
the SSMP were not consistent with the
written SSMP. These notifications,
reports, and records are essential in
determining compliance, and are
required of all sources subject to
NESHAP.
Burden Statement: In the active
approved ICR, the estimated number of
respondents for this information
collection 6 with 24 responses per year.
The annual industry reporting and
recordkeeping burden for this collection
of information was 199 hours. The
average annual respondent reports four
times per year and spends 8 hours
preparing each response.
The total annualized cost for
continuous emissions monitoring was
$64,300, which was comprised of
capital/startup costs of $42,000 and
operation and maintenance (O&M) costs

Abstract: Federal Emission Guidelines
for Large Municipal Waste Combustors
Constructed on or Before September 20,
1994 (40 CFR 62, Subpart FFF) were
promulgated on November 12, 1998.
The guidelines apply to MWC units
with a combustion capacity greater than
250 tons per day of municipal solid
waste (large MWC units) if construction
of the unit commenced on or before
September 20, 1994, and the unit is not
covered by an Agency approved State or
Tribal Plan.
The affected entities are subject to the
General Provisions of the New Source
Performance Standards (NSPS) at 40
CFR part 60, subpart A and any changes,
or additions to the General Provisions
specified at 40 CFR part 62, subpart
FFF. Subpart FFF implements and
enforces the emission guidelines (40
CFR part 60, subpart Cb) for large MWCs
that were promulgated under the
authority of Clean Air Act Sections 111
and 129. Under CAA Section 129(b)(2),
States were required to submit plans to
the Administrator for approval by
December 19, 1996, that implement and
enforce the 40 CFR part 60, subpart Cb.
Section 129(b)(3) requires the
Administrator to promulgate a Federal
Plan to implement and enforce the
guidelines in those States that have not
submitted an approvable plan to
Administrator by December 19, 1997.
Subpart FFF requires initial
notifications, performance tests, and
periodic reports. Owners or operators
are also 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 to determine compliance, and
are required of all sources subject to the
NSPS. Subpart FFF contains the same
testing, monitoring, recordkeeping and
reporting requirements as Subpart Eb
and subpart Cb. This occurs because
Section 60.39b of subpart Cb requires
that for a State Plan or Tribal Plan to be
approved, it must contain the
recordkeeping and reporting
requirements of Subpart Eb. Because the
Federal Plan is applicable in lieu of
State or Tribal Plans for MWCs in areas
that do not have approved State or
Tribal Plans, the Federal Plan also
contains the same recordkeeping and
reporting as subparts Eb and Cb.

Abstract: EPA uses contractors to
perform services throughout the nation
with regard to environmental
emergencies involving the release, or
threatened release, of oil, radioactive
materials or hazardous chemicals that
may potentially affect communities and
the surrounding environment. Releases
may be accidental, deliberate, or may be
caused by natural disasters. Emergency
responders are available 24 hours-a-day
to an incident, and respond with
necessary personnel and equipment to
eliminate dangers to the public and
environment. Contractors responding to
any of these types of incidents are
responsible for conducting drug tests
and applying Government-established
suitability criteria in determining
whether employees are acceptable to
perform on given sites or on specific
projects prior to contract employee
performance. The information to be
collected under the ICR for Drug Testing
for Contractor Employees covers testing
for the presence of marijuana, cocaine,
opiates, amphetamines and
phencyclidine (PCP). The Contractor
shall maintain records of all drug tests.
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 1 hour 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:
Entities potentially affected by this
action are contractors involved with
Emergency Response that have
significant security concerns, as
determined by the Contracting Officer
on a case-by-case basis, to provide

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, EPA is soliciting
comments and information to enable it to:
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed collections of information are
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility.
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the Agency's estimates of the burdens
of the proposed collections of information.
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected.
(4) Minimize the burden of the collections of information on those
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated
or electronic collection technologies or other forms of information
technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses.
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

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.
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
standards are displayed at 40 CFR part 9.
B. Public Dockets
EPA has established official public dockets for the ICRs listed
under SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION, section II.B. The official public
docket for each ICR consists of the documents specifically referenced
in the ICR, any public comments received, and other information related
to each ICR. The official public docket for each ICR is the collection
of materials that is available for public viewing at the Enforcement
and Compliance Docket and Information Center in the EPA Docket Center
(EPA/DC), EPA West, Room B102, 1301 Constitution Avenue, NW.,
Washington, DC. The EPA Docket Center Public Reading Room is open from

II. ICRs To Be Renewed
A. For All ICRs
The listed ICRs address Clean Air Act information collection
requirements in standards (i.e., regulations) which have mandatory
recordkeeping and reporting requirements. Records collected under the
New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) must be retained by the owner
or operator for at least two years and the records collected under the
National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) must
be retained by the owner or operator for at least five years. In
general, the required collections consist of emissions data and other
information deemed not to be private.
In the absence of such information collection requirements,
enforcement personnel would be unable to determine whether the
standards are being met on a continuous basis, as required by the Clean
Air Act.
The Agency computed the burden for each of the recordkeeping and
reporting requirements applicable to the industry for the currently
approved Information Collection Requests (ICRs) listed in this notice.
Where applicable, the Agency identified specific tasks and made
assumptions, while being consistent with the concept of the Paperwork
Reduction Act.

Affected Entities: Integrated iron and steel manufacturing
facilities.
Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Integrated Iron and Steel Manufacturing Steel
Pickling, 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart FFFFF, were proposed on July 13, 2001
(66 FR 36835), and promulgated on May 20, 2003 (68 FR 27645). This
rulemaking establishes emission limits for particulate matter and/or
opacity limits, which act as surrogates for individual metallic
hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) limitations for six discharge points.
Operating limits are also required for certain capture systems and
control devices. The rule also includes an operating limit for the oil
content of the sinter plant feedstock to reduce organic HAP. As an
alternative, a facility may choose to monitor emissions of volatile
organic compounds instead of oil content.
The monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements outlined
in the rule are similar to those required for other NESHAP regulations.
Plants are required to conduct a performance test to demonstrate
initial compliance with each emission and opacity limit and establish
operating limits for capture systems and control devices. A performance
test is also required to demonstrate compliance with the operating
limit on the oil content of sinter plant feedstock or for volatile
organic compounds.
Consistent with the NESHAP General Provisions (40 CFR Part 63,
Subpart A), respondents submit one-time notifications of applicability,
a performance test result for the primary emission control device, and
semiannual reports including periods of monitoring exceedances. Plants
also must develop and implement a Startup, Shutdown, and Malfunction
Plan (SSMP). An immediate report is required if actions taken in
response to the SSMP were not consistent with the written SSMP. These
notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining
compliance, and are required of all sources subject to NESHAP.
Burden Statement: In the active approved ICR, the estimated number
of respondents for this information collection 6 with 24 responses per
year. The annual industry reporting and recordkeeping burden for this
collection of information was 199 hours. The average annual respondent
reports four times per year and spends 8 hours preparing each response.
The total annualized cost for continuous emissions monitoring was
$64,300, which was comprised of capital/startup costs of $42,000 and
operation and maintenance (O&M) costs of $22,300 per year.
(9) Federal Emission Guidelines for Large Municipal Waste
Combustors Constructed on or Before September 20, 1994 (40 CFR 62,
Subpart FFF), EPA ICR Number 1847.04, OMB Control Number 2060-0181,
expiration date June 30, 2006.
Affected Entities: Municipal waste combustion (MWC) units.
Abstract: Federal Emission Guidelines for Large Municipal Waste
Combustors Constructed on or Before September 20, 1994 (40 CFR 62,
Subpart FFF) were promulgated on November 12, 1998. The guidelines
apply to MWC units with a combustion capacity greater than 250 tons per
day of municipal solid waste (large MWC units) if construction of the
unit commenced on or before September 20, 1994, and the unit is not
covered by an Agency approved State or Tribal Plan.
The affected entities are subject to the General Provisions of the
New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) at 40 CFR part 60, subpart A
and any changes, or additions to the General Provisions specified at 40
CFR part 62, subpart FFF. Subpart FFF implements and enforces the
emission guidelines (40 CFR part 60, subpart Cb) for large MWCs that
were promulgated under the authority of Clean Air Act Sections 111 and
129. Under CAA Section 129(b)(2), States were required to submit plans
to the Administrator for approval by December 19, 1996, that implement
and enforce the 40 CFR part 60, subpart Cb. Section 129(b)(3) requires
the Administrator to promulgate a Federal Plan to implement and enforce
the guidelines in those States that have not submitted an approvable
plan to Administrator by December 19, 1997.
Subpart FFF requires initial notifications, performance tests, and
periodic reports. Owners or operators are also 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 to determine compliance, and are
required of all sources subject to the NSPS. Subpart FFF contains the
same testing, monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting requirements as
Subpart Eb and subpart Cb. This occurs because Section 60.39b of
subpart Cb requires that for a State Plan or Tribal Plan to be
approved, it must contain the recordkeeping and reporting requirements
of Subpart Eb. Because the Federal Plan is applicable in lieu of State
or Tribal Plans for MWCs in areas that do not have approved State or
Tribal Plans, the Federal Plan also contains the same recordkeeping and
reporting as subparts Eb and Cb.

Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Hydrochloric Acid Production (CFR Part 63,
Subpart NNNNN) were proposed on September 18, 2001, and promulgated on
April 17, 2003. This subpart applies to owners and operators of an HCl
production facility that produces a liquid HCl product at a
concentration of 30 percent by weight, or greater during its normal
operations and is located at, or is part of, a major source of
hazardous air pollutants. A HCl production facility is the collection
of unit operations and
[[Page 55375]]
equipment associated with the production of liquid HCl product.
The affected entities are subject to the General Provisions of the
NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A and any changes, or additions to
the General Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, subpart NNNNN.
Respondents must submit one-time initial notifications, notification of
intent to conduct a performance test, notification of compliance
status, and startup, shutdown, and malfunction reports.
Burden Statement: In the previously approved ICR, the estimated
number of respondents for this information collection was 71 with 117
responses per year. The annual industry reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information was 50,052 hours. On average,
each respondent reported 1.6 times per year and 428 hours were spent
preparing each response. The responses were prepared semiannually and
annually. The total annualized cost was $247,410, which was comprised
of capital/startup costs of $25,869 and operation and maintenance costs
of $221,541.
(14) NESHAP for Mercury (40 CFR Part 61, Subpart E); EPA ICR Number
0113.09; OMB Control Number 2060-0097; expiration date August 31, 2006.
Affected Entities: Mercury chlor-alkali cells that produce chlorine
gas and alkali metal hydroxide.
Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Mercury (CFR Part 61, Subpart E) were proposed
on December 7, 1971, and promulgated on April 6, 1973, and amended on
October 14, 1975, and March 19, 1987. The affected entities are subject
to the General Provisions of the National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) at 40 CFR part 61, subpart A and any
changes, or additions to the General Provisions specified at 40 CFR
part 61, subpart E. Owners or operators of affected facilities
described must make the following one-time-only reports: Notification
of the date of construction or reconstruction; notification of the
anticipated and actual dates of startup; notification of any physical
or operational change to an existing facility which may increase the
regulated pollutant emission rate; notification of the date of the
initial performance test; and the results of the initial performance
test. These facilities must also maintain records of performance test
results, startups, shutdowns, and malfunctions. In order to ensure
compliance with the standards, adequate recordkeeping and reporting is
necessary. A written report of each period for which hourly monitored
parameters fall outside their established limits is required
semiannually for mercury-cell chlor-alkali facilities.
Burden Statement: In the previously approved ICR, the estimated
number of respondents for this information collection was 107 with 114
responses per year. The annual industry reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information was 17,818 hours. On average,
each respondent reported once per year and 156 hours were spent
preparing each response. There were no capital/startup costs or
operation and maintenance costs associated with continuous emission
monitoring in the previous ICR.
(15) NESHAP for Secondary Aluminum Production (40 CFR Part 63,
Subpart RRR); EPA ICR Number 1894.05; OMB Control Number 2060-0433;
expiration date September 30, 2006.
Affected Entities: Secondary aluminum production plants.
Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Secondary Aluminum Production (CFR Part 63,
Subpart RRR) were proposed on February 11, 1999, and promulgated on
March 23, 2002, and amended on December 30, 2002. These regulations
apply to component processes at secondary aluminum production plants
that are major sources and area sources including aluminum scrap
shredders, thermal chip dryers, scrap dryers/delacquering kilns/
decoating kilns, secondary aluminum processing units composed of in-
line fluxers and process furnaces, sweat furnaces, dross-only furnaces,
and rotary dross coolers, commencing construction, or reconstruction
after the date of proposal. As a result of a rule amendment, owners and
operators of certain aluminum die casting facilities, aluminum
foundries, and aluminum extrusion facilities were excluded from the
rule coverage. Respondents do not include the owner or operator of any
facility that is not a major source of hazardous air pollutants
emissions except for those that are area sources of dioxin/furan
emissions.
The affected entities are subject to the General Provisions of the
NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A and any changes, or additions to
the General Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 61, subpart RRR. The
standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and
periodic reports. Owners or operators are also 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 of all sources subject to NESHAP.
Burden Statement: In the previously approved ICR, the estimated
number of respondents for this information collection was 1,640 with
3,430 responses per year. The annual industry reporting and
recordkeeping burden for this collection of information was 94,998
hours. On average, each respondent reported two times per year and 28
hours were spent preparing each response. The total annualized cost was
