National Emission Standards for the Printing and Publishing 
Industry

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Direct final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: EPA is taking direct final action on amendments to the 
national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP) for 
the printing and publishing industry which were promulgated on May 30, 
1996, under the authority of section 112 of the Clean Air Act (CAA). 
The direct final rule amendments amend specific provisions in the 
Printing and Publishing Industry NESHAP to resolve issues and questions 
raised after promulgation of the final rule and to correct errors in 
the regulatory text. This action also makes direct final rule 
amendments to the Paper and Other Web Coating NESHAP and the Printing, 
Coating, and Dyeing of Fabric and Other Textiles NESHAP to clarify the 
interaction between these rules and the Printing and Publishing 
Industry NESHAP.

DATES: The direct final rule is effective on August 22, 2006 without 
further notice, unless EPA receives adverse written comment by June 23, 
2006 or by July 10, 2006 if a public hearing is requested by June 5, 
2006. If adverse comments are received, EPA will publish a timely 
withdrawal in the Federal Register indicating which amendments, 
sections or paragraphs will become effective and which are being 
withdrawn due to adverse comment. If anyone contacts EPA requesting to 
speak at a public hearing, a public hearing will be held on June 8, 
2006.

    Comments. We are publishing the direct final rule amendments 
without prior proposal because we view the amendments as 
noncontroversial and do not anticipate adverse comments. However, in 
the Proposed Rules section of this Federal Register notice, we are 
publishing a separate document that will serve as the proposal to amend 
the Printing and Publishing Industry NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart 
KK), the Paper and Other Web Coating NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart 
JJJJ), and the Printing, Coating, and Dyeing of Fabric and Other 
Textiles NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart OOOO) if adverse comments are 
filed. Instructions for submitting comments are provided in that 
document. If we receive any adverse comments on one or more distinct 
amendments, we will publish a timely withdrawal in the Federal Register 
informing the public which provisions will become effective, and which 
provisions are being withdrawn due to adverse comment. We will address 
all public comments in a subsequent final rule, should the EPA 
determine to issue one. Any of the distinct amendments in today's 
direct final rule for which we do not receive adverse comment will 
become effective on the previously mentioned date. We will not 
institute a second comment period on the direct final rule amendments. 
Any parties interested in commenting must do so at this time.
    Judicial Review. Under section 307(b)(1) of the CAA, judicial 
review of the direct final rule amendments is available only by filing 
a petition for review in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of 
Columbia Circuit by July 24, 2006. Under section 307(d)(7)(B) of the 
CAA, only an objection to the direct final rule amendments that was 
raised with reasonable specificity during the period for public comment 
can be raised during judicial review. Moreover, under section 307(b)(2) 
of the CAA, the requirements established by the direct final rule 
amendments may not be challenged separately in any civil or criminal 
proceeding brought by EPA to enforce these requirements.

I. Background

    On May 30 1996, we issued the final NESHAP for the printing and 
publishing industry (61 FR 27140). The final NESHAP established 
standards to control organic hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions 
from new and existing publication rotogravure, product and packaging 
rotogravure, and wide-web flexographic printing operations.
    Since promulgation of the rule, various issues and questions have 
been raised by stakeholders and some errors have been identified in the 
regulatory text. Today's action includes direct final rule amendments 
that resolve inconsistencies, clarify language, and add additional 
compliance flexibility. We are also making direct final rule amendments 
to the Paper and Other Web Coating NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart 
JJJJ), and the Printing, Coating, and Dyeing of Fabric and Other 
Textiles NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart OOOO) to clarify the 
interaction between these rules and the Printing and Publishing 
Industry NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart KK). None of the amendments 
will have any discernable effect on the stringency of the rules.

II. Amendments

    The discussion in this section of the preamble pertains to the 
Printing and Publishing Industry NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart KK) 
unless otherwise noted as applying to the Paper and Other Web Coating 
NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart JJJJ) or the Printing, Coating, and 
Dyeing of Fabric and Other Textiles NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart 
OOOO).

[[Page 29794]]

A. Applicability

    The final rule contains a provision which some sources can use to 
establish and maintain themselves as area sources of HAP with respect 
to the Printing and Publishing Industry NESHAP. EPA has received many 
questions about whether this provision in 40 CFR 63.820(a)(2) is an 
optional or mandatory provision for sources that wish to establish and 
maintain themselves as area sources. We have added language to 40 CFR 
63.820(a)(2) to emphasize that this is an optional provision. 
Facilities which establish and maintain themselves as area sources 
through other mechanisms, as described in 40 CFR 63.820(a)(7), are not 
subject to this subpart.

B. Designation of Affected Source

    In 40 CFR 63.821(a)(3), the final rule provides an option for 
including ``stand-alone coating equipment'' in product and packaging 
rotogravure or wide-web flexographic printing affected sources. We have 
amended 40 CFR 63.821(a)(3) to now refer to ``stand-alone equipment'' 
rather than ``stand-alone coating equipment.'' This change provides the 
owner or operator with more flexibility for bringing additional 
equipment into the product and packaging rotogravure or wide-web 
flexographic printing affected source. This may simplify the compliance 
demonstration for some affected sources because they will not need to 
separately quantify the materials used on stand-alone equipment in 
order to exclude them from the compliance demonstration as is necessary 
when stand-alone equipment is not part of the product and packaging 
rotogravure or wide-web flexographic printing affected source. This may 
also simplify the compliance demonstration for affected sources which 
vent emissions from product and packaging rotogravure or wide-web 
flexographic presses and from stand-alone equipment to a common control 
device.
    Consistent with this change, we have also amended 40 CFR 63.3300(a) 
of the Paper and Other Web Coating NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart 
JJJJ) to now refer to ``stand-alone equipment'' rather than ``stand-
alone coating equipment.''
    In response to several requests we have added options in 40 CFR 
63.821(a)(4) for including narrow-web flexographic presses and in 40 
CFR 63.821(a)(5) for including proof presses in product and packaging 
rotogravure or wide-web flexographic printing affected sources. These 
options may simplify the compliance demonstration for some affected 
sources because they will not need to separately quantify the materials 
used on narrow-web flexographic presses or proof presses in order to 
exclude them from the compliance demonstration as is necessary when 
narrow-web flexographic presses and proof presses are not part of the 
product and packaging rotogravure or wide-web flexographic printing 
affected source.
    We have corrected 40 CFR 63.821(a)(2)(ii)(A) to state that the 
total mass of materials applied by the press using product and 
packaging rotogravure ``print'' stations be included in the numerator. 
The final rule incorrectly referred to product and packaging 
rotogravure ``work'' stations in the numerator.
    We have added a new 40 CFR 63.821(a)(6) to clarify that certain 
operations affiliated with product and packaging rotogravure or wide-
web flexographic printing affected sources are part of the printing and 
publishing industry source category, but are not part of the product 
and packaging rotogravure or wide-web flexographic printing affected 
source. These affiliated operations include mixing or dissolving of ink 
or coating ingredients prior to application; ink or coating mixing for 
viscosity adjustment, color tint or additive blending, or pH 
adjustment; cleaning of ink or coating lines and line parts; handling 
and storage of inks, coatings and solvents; and conveyance and 
treatment of wastewater. Including these affiliated operations in the 
printing and publishing source category is consistent with 40 CFR 
63.7985(d)(2) of the Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing NESHAP (40 CFR 
part 63, subpart HHHHH) which exempts these affiliated operations from 
coverage under that rule. They were excluded from the product and 
packaging rotogravure or wide-web flexographic printing affected source 
in the final rule because they were not within the scope of the data 
collected and used to establish the floor and the maximum achievable 
control technology (MACT) standard for these affected sources.
    These affiliated operations continue to be part of publication 
rotogravure affected sources as described in 40 CFR 63.821(a)(1). The 
material balance records kept for the solvent recovery systems used by 
all publication rotogravure facilities were broader in scope and 
included these affiliated operations. As a result, they form part of 
the basis for the floor and the MACT standard for publication 
rotogravure affected sources.
    We have added a new 40 CFR 63.821(a)(7) to clarify that certain 
lithographic presses, letterpress presses, or screen printing presses, 
referred to in this new paragraph as ``other presses,'' are part of the 
printing and publishing industry source category, but are not part of 
the publication rotogravure affected source or the product and 
packaging rotogravure or wide-web flexographic printing affected source 
unless the owner or operator chooses to include them in the affected 
source as stand-alone equipment as provided in 40 CFR 63.821(a)(3). A 
definition of the term ``other presses'' has been added to the rule.
    Rotogravure, flexography, lithography, letterpress, and screen 
printing were all part of the printing and publishing source category 
in the ``Initial List of Categories of Sources Under Section 112(c)(1) 
of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990'' published on July 16, 1992 
(57 FR 31576). The source category was described in detail in 
``Documentation for Developing the Initial Source Category List'' (EPA-
450/3-91-030, July 1992). The publication rotogravure affected source 
in the final rule addresses the publication rotogravure printing 
process. The product and packaging rotogravure or wide-web flexographic 
printing affected source in the final rule addresses the product and 
packaging rotogravure and wide-web flexographic printing processes. 
Lithography, letterpress, and screen printing are different printing 
processes than publication rotogravure, product and packaging 
rotogravure, and flexographic printing. Lithographic, letterpress, and 
screen printing presses that did not also meet the definition of 
rotogravure press or wide-web flexographic press (i.e., that had no 
rotogravure print stations and no wide-web flexographic print 
stations), therefore, were not part of the publication rotogravure 
affected source, or the product and packaging rotogravure or wide-web 
flexographic printing affected source in the final rule.
    We have added a new 40 CFR 63.821(a)(8) to clarify that narrow-web 
flexographic presses are part of the printing and publishing industry 
source category, but are not part of the publication rotogravure 
affected source or the product and packaging rotogravure or wide-web 
flexographic printing affected source unless the owner or operator 
chooses to include them in the product and packaging rotogravure or 
wide-web flexographic printing affected source as provided in 40 CFR 
63.821(a)(3) through (5). The rule did not previously treat narrow-web 
flexographic presses as part of either of these affected sources. We 
are providing the option of including them in the product and packaging 
rotogravure or wide-web flexographic printing affected source because 
this may simplify the compliance

[[Page 29795]]

demonstration for some affected sources that previously had to 
separately quantify the materials used on these presses in order to 
exclude them from the compliance demonstration.
    We have added the word ``affected'' to 40 CFR 63.821(b)(1) and (2) 
to clarify that these paragraphs apply to ``affected sources.''

C. Definitions

    We have added, removed, and revised a number of definitions in the 
rule. These changes add clarity and consistency to the rule.
    We added a definition of ``coating'' to clarify that in addition to 
solvent-borne coatings and waterborne coatings, materials with 100 
percent or near 100 percent solids such as wax coatings, wax 
laminations, extrusion coatings, ultra-violet cured coatings, etc., are 
coatings. Materials used to form unsupported substrates such as 
calendaring of vinyl, blown film, cast film, etc., are not coatings.
    We added a definition of ``flexible packaging.'' This term is used 
in the revised definition of ``printing operation.''
    We added a definition of ``narrow-web flexographic press'' to 
complement the already existing definition of ``wide-web flexographic 
press.''
    We added a definition of ``other press'' to complement the use of 
that term in 40 CFR 63.821(a)(7).
    We added a definition of ``publication rotogravure press'' to 
complement the definition of ``rotogravure press.'' This definition 
clarifies that a publication rotogravure press may include one or more 
flexographic imprinters and that a publication rotogravure press with 
one or more flexographic imprinters is not a flexographic press.
    We added a definition of ``stand-alone equipment'' and removed the 
definition of ``stand-alone coating equipment.'' This change provides 
the owner or operator with additional flexibility for bringing 
additional equipment into the product and packaging rotogravure or 
wide-web flexographic printing affected source. We also removed the 
definitions of ``coating operation'' and ``coating station.'' Since 
these two terms were used only in the definition of stand-alone coating 
equipment and they are not used in the definition of stand-alone 
equipment, these two definitions are no longer needed.
    We revised the definition of ``certified product data sheet'' 
(CPDS) to refer to 40 CFR 63.827(b) rather than to Method 311 or 40 CFR 
63.827(b) since Method 311 is discussed in 40 CFR 63.827(b). We 
included volatile matter weight fraction along with solids weight 
fraction in the reference to 40 CFR 63.827(c) since both of these 
attributes are addressed in 40 CFR 63.827(c). We also explained how a 
material safety data sheet may serve as a CPDS.
    We revised the definition of ``control device efficiency'' to refer 
to organic HAP emissions rather than to HAP emissions. The word 
``organic'' was inadvertently omitted from the original definition.
    We revised the definitions of ``flexographic press'' and 
``rotogravure press'' to clarify that the unwind or feed section may 
contain more than one unwind or feed station. For example, a press that 
prints on paper and then laminates plastic film to the paper will have 
an unwind or feed station for the paper, and an unwind or feed station 
for the plastic that is being laminated to the paper. Both are included 
in the unwind or feed section.
    We revised the definition of ``flexographic print station'' to 
clarify the meaning of the term and to distinguish it from certain 
operations which take place on ``other presses.''
    We revised the definition of ``printing operation'' to include 
fabric or other textiles for use in flexible packaging, and to exclude 
wood furniture components and wood building products. Fabric is printed 
by roller (intaglio), rotary screen, ink jet, and other printing 
techniques. Rotogravure and flexographic printing are not traditional 
fabric printing techniques because the materials used are too fluid. 
Today, there is some rotogravure or flexographic printing of non-woven 
substrates, which may meet the definition of ``fabric'' or ``textile'' 
in the Printing, Coating, and Dyeing of Fabrics and Other Textiles 
NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart OOOO). This includes rotogravure or 
flexographic printing of fabric or other textiles for use in flexible 
packaging which is most appropriately covered by the Printing and 
Publishing Industry NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart KK). Therefore, we 
are including rotogravure or flexographic printing of fabric or other 
textiles for use in flexible packaging in the definition of ``printing 
operation'' in the Printing and Publishing Industry NESHAP.
    Consistent with this change, we have also amended 40 CFR 63.4281 of 
the Printing, Coating, and Dyeing of Fabrics and Other Textiles NESHAP 
(40 CFR part 63, subpart OOOO) by adding a new paragraph (d)(4) which 
states that equipment used to coat or print on fabric or other textiles 
for use in flexible packaging that is included in an affected source 
under the Printing and Publishing Industry NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart KK) is not part of an affected source under the Printing, 
Coating, and Dyeing of Fabrics and Other Textiles NESHAP.
    There is some rotogravure printing of wood furniture components and 
wood building products. These wood printing operations are covered by 
the Wood Furniture Manufacturing Operations NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart JJ) or the Surface Coating of Wood Building Products NESHAP (40 
CFR part 63, subpart QQQQ). Therefore, we are excluding them from the 
definition of ``printing operation'' in the Printing and Publishing 
Industry NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart KK).
    We revised the definition of ``proof press'' by broadening it to 
include checking the quality of substrates, inks, or other solids-
containing materials. Proof presses sometimes serve these other 
purposes, for example, at a paper mill or ink manufacturing facility.
    We corrected the definition of ``rotogravure print station'' to use 
the term ``print station'' rather than the term ``work station'' in the 
body of the definition and revised this definition to clarify that 
other types of materials that may not be referred to by the supplier or 
by the user as inks can be applied by rotogravure print stations. The 
term ``ink'' in the definition in the final rule was intended to 
include any solids containing material since materials that might be 
characterized by the supplier or by the user as inks, coatings, or 
adhesives are applied on rotogravure print stations.
    We revised the definition of ``work station'' to clarify that work 
stations are present on equipment other than rotogravure or wide-web 
flexographic presses. For example, work stations are present on proof 
presses and stand-alone equipment.
    The symbol H was used in two different ways in the final rule. To 
resolve this inconsistency, we revised the definition of the symbol H 
and changed the symbol used in equation 8 from H to Happ. 
The symbol H is now defined to mean the monthly organic HAP emitted in 
kilograms. The symbol Happ is defined to mean the total 
monthly organic HAP applied in kilograms. Since the symbol 
Happ is only used in equation 8, we have placed the 
definition of Happ immediately after that equation.
    The symbols Ci and MWi were used only in 
equation 20 in the final rule. The definitions of these symbols were 
inconsistent with the manner in which the results of Methods 25 and 25A 
are expressed. The definitions referred to individual organic 
compounds. The results of Methods 25 and 25A, however, are expressed as 
carbon. We

[[Page 29796]]

have added a new symbol Cc for use in equation 20. The 
definition of Cc is consistent with the manner in which the 
results of Methods 25 and 25A are expressed. Since Cc is 
used only in equation 20, we have placed the definition of 
Cc immediately after that equation. The symbols 
MWi and Ci are not needed and have been removed. 
The symbols Mf and Qsd are used only in equation 
20. We have moved the definitions of these symbols to immediately after 
that equation.

D. Standards: Publication Rotogravure Printing

    We revised 40 CFR 63.824(b)(1)(i)(A) and (b)(3)(i) by inserting a 
comma between ``varnish'' and ``adhesive'' to clarify that these are 
two different types of materials.
    We revised 40 CFR 63.824(b)(1)(ii)(A) and (b)(2)(ii) to clarify the 
continuous emission monitoring requirements for solvent recovery 
devices and oxidizers. For solvent recovery devices, a single 
continuous volumetric gas flow measurement should be sufficient since 
the inlet and outlet volumetric gas flow rates for a solvent recovery 
device are essentially equal. For oxidizers, separate continuous 
volumetric gas flow measurements of the inlet and outlet volumetric gas 
flow rates are required.

E. Standards: Product and Packaging Rotogravure and Wide-Web 
Flexographic Printing

    We corrected the first sentence of 40 CFR 63.825(b) introductory 
text to refer to ``organic HAP emissions'' rather than to 
``emissions.''
    We revised 40 CFR 63.825(b)(6) to use the symbol Happ 
instead of H because the symbol H is used with a different meaning 
elsewhere in the final rule. We defined Happ in 40 CFR 
63.825(b)(6) in the same way in which H was previously used in this 
paragraph of the final rule.
    We revised 40 CFR 63.825(c)(2)(iii) and (d)(2) to clarify the 
continuous emission monitoring requirements for solvent recovery 
devices and oxidizers. For solvent recovery devices, a single 
continuous volumetric gas flow measurement should be sufficient since 
the inlet and outlet volumetric gas flow rates for a solvent recovery 
device are essentially equal. For oxidizers, separate continuous 
volumetric gas flow measurements of the inlet and outlet volumetric gas 
flow rates are required.
    We revised 40 CFR 63.825(d)(1)(iv) to refer to a common oxidizer 
rather than a common solvent recovery system because 40 CFR 63.825(d) 
describes compliance demonstration requirements for oxidizers.

F. Performance Test Methods

    We revised 40 CFR 63.827(a)(1)(i) and (ii) to clarify that there 
must be continuous emission monitors for both total organic volatile 
matter concentration and volumetric gas flow rate, and that the 
continuous emission monitoring must be done in accordance with the 
requirements of this subpart. Both concentration and flow data are 
needed to calculate the total organic volatile matter mass flow.
    In 40 CFR 63.827(b) of the final rule, the provisions for using 
manufacturers formulation data for determining organic HAP content 
required the inclusion of all HAP present at a level greater than 0.1 
weight percent in any raw material used. This requirement was based on 
indications from ink and coating manufacturers that they were already 
receiving this level of information from their raw material suppliers. 
A trade association representing certain raw material suppliers 
submitted information showing that ink and coating manufacturers are 
not receiving this level of information from their suppliers. Rather, 
they are receiving information consistent with the requirements of the 
Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) hazard 
communication standards which require the identification of hazardous 
constituents present at greater than or equal to 0.1 weight percent for 
OSHA-defined carcinogens as specified in 29 CFR 1910.1200(d)(4) and 
greater than or equal to 1.0 weight percent for other hazardous 
constituents. We revised 40 CFR 63.827(b) to make it consistent with 
the OSHA hazard communication standards, included some examples, and 
clarified that test data and formulation data can be provided by 
suppliers or independent third parties.
    We revised 40 CFR 63.827(c) by including some examples, specifying 
how to calculate weight solids fraction from volatile matter weight 
fraction, and clarifying that test data and formulation data can be 
provided by suppliers or independent third parties.
    We revised 40 CFR 63.827(d)(1)(vi) to clarify that the same method 
must be used to determine inlet and outlet organic volatile matter 
concentration, and that the 50 parts per million by volume levels for 
Method 25A are expressed on an as carbon basis.
    We revised 40 CFR 63.827(d)(1)(viii) to clarify that the results of 
Methods 25 and 25A are expressed on an as carbon basis and to define 
the symbols used in equation 20 immediately after that equation.
    In 40 CFR 63.827(e)(1) and (2) the final rule referred to the 
capture efficiency procedures in appendix B to 40 CFR 52.741 and 40 CFR 
52.741(a)(4)(iii)(B). We revised 40 CFR 63.827(e)(1) and (2) to refer 
to Methods 204 and 204A through F of 40 CFR part 51, appendix M. These 
methods did not exist when the final rule was published on May 30, 
1996. They are updated versions of the procedures specified in the 
final rule.

G. Monitoring Requirements

    We revised 40 CFR 63.828(a)(3) to clarify that there must be 
continuous emission monitors for both total organic volatile matter 
concentration and volumetric gas flow rate. Both concentration and flow 
data are needed to calculate the total organic volatile matter mass 
flow.

H. Recordkeeping Requirements

    We corrected 40 CFR 63.829(e)(1) and (2) to state that records must 
be kept of the total mass, as opposed to volume, of each material 
applied on product and packaging rotogravure or wide-web flexographic 
printing presses during each month. This is consistent with 40 CFR 
63.821(b)(2) and 40 CFR 63.827(b)(2) which require these measurements 
to be done on a mass basis.

I. Reporting Requirements

    We revised 40 CFR 63.830(b)(6) to clarify that summary reports are 
required even if the affected source does not have any control devices 
or does not take the performance of any control devices into account in 
demonstrating compliance with the emission limitations in 40 CFR 63.824 
or 40 CFR 63.825. As stated in 40 CFR 63.830(b)(6)(i) through (iv), 
these summary reports must include information about various types of 
exceedances. These types of exceedances can occur at sources with or 
without control devices.

J. Appendix A to 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart KK

    We revised appendix A to subpart KK to make several clarifications. 
In paragraph 3.2 of appendix A we have clarified that the confidence 
intervals are two-sided, changed the designation of the table to Table 
A-1, changed the table references to Table A-1, and corrected the table 
entry for 11 valid test runs. In paragraph 4.8 of appendix A we have 
changed the table reference to Table A-1.

[[Page 29797]]

III. Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

A. Executive Order 12866, Regulatory Planning and Review

    Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), EPA 
must determine whether this regulatory action is ``significant'' and, 
therefore, subject to Office of Management and Budget (OMB) review and 
the requirements of the Executive Order. The Executive Order defines 
``significant regulatory action'' as one that is likely to result in a 
rule that may:
    (1) Have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more or 
adversely affect in a material way the economy, a sector of the 
economy, productivity, competition, jobs, the environment, public 
health or safety, or State, local, or tribal governments or 
communities;
    (2) Create a serious inconsistency or otherwise interfere with an 
action taken or planned by another agency;
    (3) Materially alter the budgetary impact of entitlements, grants, 
user fees, or loan programs or the rights and obligations of recipients 
thereof; or
    (4) Raise novel legal or policy issues arising out of legal 
mandates, the President's priorities, or the principles set forth in 
the Executive Order.
    It has been determined that this rule is not a ``significant 
regulatory action'' under the terms of Executive Order 12866 and is, 
therefore, not subject to OMB review.

B. Paperwork Reduction Act

    This action does not impose any new information collection burden. 
This action adds clarifications and corrections to the final standards. 
However, OMB has previously approved the information collection 
requirements contained in the existing regulations (69 FR 3912, January 
27, 2004) under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 
U.S.C. 3501, et seq., and has assigned OMB control number 2060-0335 
(EPA ICR No. 1739.04). A copy of the Information Collection Request 
(ICR) may be obtained from Ms. Susan Auby by mail at the Office of 
Environmental Information, Collection Strategies Division (2822), EPA, 
1200 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20460, by e-mail at 
auby.susan@epa.gov, or by calling (202) 566-1672. You also may download 
a copy from the internet at https://www.epa.gov/icr. Include the ICR 
number in any correspondence.
    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.
    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.

C. Regulatory Flexibility Analysis

    EPA has determined that it is not necessary to prepare a regulatory 
flexibility analysis in connection with the direct final rule 
amendments.
    For purposes of assessing the impacts of today's direct final rule 
on small entities, small entity is defined as: (1) A small business 
ranging from 500 to 1,000 as defined by the Small Business 
Administration's regulations at 13 CFR 121.201; (2) a small 
governmental jurisdiction that is a government of a city, county, town, 
school district or special district with a population of less than 
50,000; and (3) a small organization that is any not-for-profit 
enterprise which is independently owned and operated and is not 
dominant in its field.
    After considering the economic impact of today's direct final rule 
amendments on small entities, EPA has concluded that this action will 
not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small 
entities. We conducted an assessment of the impact of the May 30, 1996 
final rule on small businesses within the industries affected by that 
rule. This analysis allowed us to conclude that there would not be a 
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities 
from the implementation of that rule. There is nothing contained in the 
direct final rule amendments that will impose an economic impact on 
small businesses in any way not considered in the analysis of the May 
30, 1996 final rule; this means that the direct final rule amendments 
have no incremental economic impact on small businesses beyond what was 
already examined in the final rule.

D. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act

    Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (UMRA), Public 
Law 104-4, establishes requirements for Federal agencies to assess the 
effects of their regulatory actions on State, local, and tribal 
governments and the private sector. Under section 202 of the UMRA, EPA 
generally must prepare a written statement, including a cost-benefit 
analysis, for proposed and final rules with ``Federal mandates'' that 
may result in expenditures to State, local, and tribal governments, in 
the aggregate, or to the private sector, of $100 million or more in any 
1 year. Before promulgating a rule for which a written statement is 
needed, section 205 of the UMRA generally requires us to identify and 
consider a reasonable number of regulatory alternatives and adopt the 
least costly, most cost-effective, or least burdensome alternative that 
achieves the objectives of the rule. The provisions of section 205 do 
not apply when they are inconsistent with applicable law. Moreover, 
section 205 allows us to adopt an alternative other than the least 
costly, most cost-effective, or least burdensome alternative if the 
Administrator publishes with the final rule an explanation why that 
alternative was not adopted. Before EPA establishes any regulatory 
requirements that may significantly or uniquely affect small 
governments, including tribal governments, it must have developed under 
section 203 of the UMRA a small government agency plan. The plan must 
provide for notifying potentially affected small governments, enabling 
officials of affected small governments to have meaningful and timely 
input in the development of EPA regulatory proposals with significant 
Federal intergovernmental mandates, and informing, educating, and 
advising small governments on compliance with the regulatory 
requirements.
    EPA has determined that the direct final rule amendments do not 
contain a Federal mandate that may result in expenditures of $100 
million or more for State, local, and tribal governments, in the 
aggregate, or the private sector in any 1 year. The direct final rule 
amendments apply to affected sources in the printing and publishing 
industry and clarify and correct errors in the final rule and, 
therefore, add no additional burden on sources. Thus, the direct final 
rule amendments are not subject to the requirements of sections 202 and 
205 of the UMRA.

E. Executive Order 13132, Federalism

    Executive Order 13132, entitled ``Federalism'' (64 FR 43255, August 
10,

[[Page 29798]]

1999), requires EPA to develop an accountable process to ensure 
``meaningful and timely input by State and local officials in the 
development of regulatory policies that have federalism implications.'' 
``Policies that have federalism implications'' is defined in the 
Executive Order to include regulations that have ``substantial direct 
effects on the States, on the relationship between the national 
government and the States, or on the distribution of power and 
responsibilities among the various levels of government.''
    The direct final rule amendments do not have federalism 
implications. They will not have substantial direct effects on the 
States, on the relationship between the national government and the 
States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the 
various levels of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132. No 
printing and publishing facilities subject to the direct final rule 
amendments are owned by State or local governments. Therefore, State 
and local governments will not have any direct compliance costs 
resulting from the direct final rule amendments. Furthermore, the 
direct final rule amendments do not require these governments to take 
on any new responsibilities. Thus, Executive Order 13132 does not apply 
to the direct final rule amendments.

F. Executive Order 13175, Consultation and Coordination With Indian 
Tribal Governments

    Executive Order 13175, entitled ``Consultation and Coordination 
with Indian Tribal Governments'' (65 FR 67249, November 9, 2000), 
requires EPA to develop an accountable process to ensure ``meaningful 
and timely input by tribal officials in the development of regulatory 
policies that have tribal implications.'' The direct final rule 
amendments do not have tribal implications as specified in Executive 
Order 13175. They will not have substantial direct effects on tribal 
governments, on the relationship between the Federal government and 
Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities 
between the Federal government and Indian tribes, because we are not 
aware of any Indian tribal governments or communities affected by the 
direct final rule amendments. Thus, Executive Order 13175 does not 
apply to the direct final rule amendments.
    EPA specifically solicits additional comment on the direct final 
rule amendments from tribal officials.

G. Executive Order 13045, Protection of Children From Environmental 
Health Risks and Safety Risks

    Executive Order 13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997) applies to any 
rule that: (1) Is determined to be ``economically significant'' as 
defined under Executive Order 12866, and (2) concerns an environmental 
health or safety risk that EPA has reason to believe may have a 
disproportionate effect on children. If the regulatory action meets 
both criteria, the Agency must evaluate the environmental health or 
safety effects of the planned rule on children, and explain why the 
planned regulation is preferable to other potentially effective and 
reasonably feasible alternatives considered by the Agency.
    EPA interprets Executive Order 13045 as applying only to those 
regulatory actions that are based on health or safety risks, such that 
the analysis required under section 5-501 of the Executive Order has 
the potential to influence the regulation. The direct final rule 
amendments are not subject to Executive Order 13045 because they are 
based on technology performance and not on health or safety risks.

H. Executive Order 13211, Actions Concerning Regulations That 
Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use

    The direct final rule amendments are not subject to Executive Order 
13211 (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001) because they are not a significant 
regulatory action under Executive Order 12866.

I. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act

    Section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement 
Act (NTTAA) of 1995, Public Law 104-113, 12(d) (15 U.S.C. 272 note) 
directs EPA to use voluntary consensus standards (VCS) in its 
regulatory activities unless to do so would be inconsistent with 
applicable law or otherwise impractical. VCS are technical standards 
(e.g., materials specifications, test methods, sampling procedures, and 
business practices) that are developed or adopted by VCS bodies. The 
NTTAA directs EPA to provide Congress, through OMB, explanations when 
the Agency decides not to use available and applicable VCS.
    These amendments add references to EPA Methods 204 and 204A through 
F of 40 CFR part 51, appendix M for determining capture efficiency. 
These methods replace the capture efficiency procedures of appendix B 
to 40 CFR 52.741 and 40 CFR 52.741(a)(4)(iii)(B). EPA Methods 204 and 
204A through F are updated versions of the previously used procedures.
    Consistent with the NTTAA, EPA conducted searches to identify VCS 
in addition to these EPA methods. No applicable VCS were identified for 
EPA Methods 204 and 204A-F. The search and review results have been 
documented and are placed in the docket for the amendments.
    EPA test methods included in the rule are specified in 40 CFR 
63.827. Under 40 CFR 63.7(f) and 40 CFR 63.8(f) of subpart A of the 
General Provisions, a source may apply to EPA for permission to use 
alternative test methods or alternative monitoring requirements in 
place of any of the EPA testing methods, performance specifications, or 
procedures.

J. Congressional Review Act

    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801, et seq., as added by 
the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, 
generally provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency 
promulgating the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy 
of the rule, to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller 
General of the United States. EPA will submit a report containing the 
direct final rule amendments and other required information to the 
United States Senate, the United States House of Representatives, and 
the Comptroller General of the United States prior to publication of 
the direct final rule amendments in the Federal Register. A major rule 
cannot take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal 
Register. The direct final rule amendments are not a ``major rule'' as 
defined by 5 U.S.C. 804(2). The direct final rule amendments will be 
effective on August 22, 2006.

    Certified product data sheet (CPDS) means documentation furnished 
by suppliers of inks, coatings, varnishes, adhesives, primers, 
solvents, and other materials or by an independent third party that 
provides the organic HAP weight fraction of these materials determined 
in accordance with Sec.  63.827(b), or the volatile matter weight 
fraction or solids weight fraction determined in accordance with Sec.  
63.827(c). A material safety data sheet (MSDS) may serve as a CPDS 
provided the MSDS meets the data requirements of Sec.  63.827(b) and 
(c). The purpose of the CPDS is to assist the owner or operator in 
demonstrating compliance with the emission limitations presented in 
Sec. Sec.  63.824-63.825.
    Coating means material applied onto or impregnated into a substrate 
for decorative, protective, or functional purposes. Such materials 
include, but are not limited to, solvent-borne coatings, waterborne 
coatings, wax coatings, wax laminations, extrusion coatings, extrusion 
laminations, 100 percent solid adhesives, ultra-violet cured coatings, 
electron beam cured coatings, hot melt coatings, and cold seal 
coatings. Materials used to form unsupported substrates such as 
calendaring of vinyl, blown film, cast film, extruded film, and 
coextruded film are not considered coatings.

    Control device efficiency means the ratio of organic HAP emissions 
recovered or destroyed by a control device to the total organic HAP 
emissions that are introduced into the control device, expressed as a 
percentage.

    Flexible packaging means any package or part of a package the shape 
of which can be readily changed. Flexible packaging includes, but is 
not limited to, bags, pouches, labels, liners and wraps utilizing 
paper, plastic, film, aluminum foil, metalized or coated paper or film, 
or any combination of these materials.
    Flexographic press means an unwind or feed section, which may 
include more than one unwind or feed station (such as on a laminator), 
a series of individual work stations, one or more of which is a 
flexographic print station, any dryers (including interstage dryers and 
overhead tunnel dryers) associated with the work stations, and a 
rewind, stack, or collection section. The work stations may be oriented 
vertically, horizontally, or around the circumference of a single large 
impression cylinder. Inboard and outboard work stations, including 
those employing any other technology, such as rotogravure, are included 
if they are capable of printing or coating on the same substrate. A 
publication rotogravure press with one or more flexographic imprinters 
is not a flexographic press.
    Flexographic print station means a print station on which a 
flexographic printing operation is conducted. A flexographic print 
station includes an anilox roller that transfers material to a raised 
image (type or art) on a plate cylinder. The material is then 
transferred from the image on the plate cylinder to the web or sheet to 
be printed. A flexographic print station may include a fountain roller 
to transfer material from the reservoir to the anilox roller, or 
material may be transferred directly from the reservoir to the anilox 
roller. The materials applied are of a fluid, rather than paste, 
consistency.
* * * * *
    Narrow-web flexographic press means a flexographic press that is 
not capable of printing substrates greater than 18 inches in width and 
that does not also meet the definition of rotogravure press (i.e., it 
has no rotogravure print stations).
* * * * *
    Other press means a lithographic press, letterpress press, or 
screen printing press that does not meet the definition of rotogravure 
press or flexographic press (i.e., it has no rotogravure print stations 
and no flexographic print stations), and that does not print on fabric 
or other textiles as defined in the Printing, Coating, and Dyeing of 
Fabrics and Other Textiles NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart OOOO), wood 
furniture components as defined in the Wood Furniture Manufacturing 
Operations NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart JJ) or wood building 
products as defined in the Surface Coating of Wood Building Products 
NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart QQQQ).
* * * * *
    Printing operation means the formation of words, designs, or 
pictures on a substrate other than wood furniture components as defined 
in the Wood Furniture Manufacturing Operations NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart JJ), wood building products as defined in the Surface Coating 
of Wood Building Products NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart QQQQ), and 
fabric or other textiles as defined in the Printing, Coating, and 
Dyeing of Fabric and Other Textiles NESHAP (40 CFR part 63, subpart 
OOOO), except for fabric or other textiles for use in flexible 
packaging.

    Proof press means any press which prints only non-saleable items 
used to check the quality of image formation of rotogravure cylinders 
or flexographic plates; substrates such as paper, plastic film, metal 
foil, or vinyl; or ink, coating varnish, adhesive, primer, or other 
solids-containing material.
* * * * *
    Publication rotogravure press means a rotogravure press used for 
publication rotogravure printing. A publication rotogravure press may 
include one or more flexographic imprinters. A publication rotogravure 
press with one or more flexographic imprinters is not a flexographic 
press.

    Rotogravure press means an unwind or feed section, which may 
include more than one unwind or feed station (such as on a laminator), 
a series of individual work stations, one or more of which is a 
rotogravure print station, any dryers associated with the work 
stations, and a rewind, stack, or collection section. Inboard and 
outboard work stations, including those employing any other technology, 
such as flexography, are included if they are capable of printing or 
coating on the same substrate.
    Rotogravure print station means a print station on which a 
rotogravure printing operation is conducted. A

rotogravure print station includes a rotogravure cylinder and supply 
for ink or other solids containing material. The image (type and art) 
to be printed is etched or engraved below the surface of the 
rotogravure cylinder. On a rotogravure cylinder the printing image 
consists of millions of minute cells.

    Stand-alone equipment means an unwind or feed section, which may 
include more than one unwind or feed station (such as on a laminator); 
a series of one or more work stations and any associated dryers; and a 
rewind, stack, or collection section that is not part of a product and 
packaging rotogravure or wide-web flexographic press. Stand-alone 
equipment is sometimes referred to as ``off-line'' equipment.

    (A) Measure the mass of each ink, coating, varnish, adhesive, 
primer, solvent, and other material used by the affected source during 
the month.
* * * * *
    (ii) * * *
    (A) Install continuous emission monitors to collect the data 
necessary to calculate the total organic volatile matter mass flow in 
the gas stream entering and the total organic volatile matter mass flow 
in the gas stream exiting the solvent recovery device for each month 
such that the percent control efficiency (E) of the solvent recovery 
device can be calculated for the month. This requires continuous 
emission monitoring of the total organic volatile matter concentration 
in the gas stream entering the solvent recovery device, the total 
organic volatile matter concentration in the gas stream exiting the 
solvent recovery device, and the volumetric gas flow rate through the 
solvent recovery device. A single continuous volumetric gas flow 
measurement should be sufficient for a solvent recovery device since 
the inlet and outlet volumetric gas flow rates for a solvent recovery 
device are essentially equal. Each month's individual inlet 
concentration values and corresponding indiv
