Responses to the collection of information are voluntary. Respondents may claim all or part of a notice as CBI. EPA will disclose information that is covered by a CBI claim only to the extent permitted by, and in accordance with, the procedures in 40 CFR part 2. 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, are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and included on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to range between 0.5 and 20 hours per response, depending upon the type of information the respondent provides. 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: Establishments or organizations engaged in furnishing medical, surgical or other health services to individuals. Frequency of Collection: Annual. Estimated average number of responses for each respondent: 3.2. Estimated Number of Respondents: 1,582. Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 5,551 hours. Estimated Total Annual Costs: $188,723. Changes in Burden Estimates: There is a decrease of 4,559 hours (from 10,110 hours to 5,551 hours) in the total estimated respondent burden compared with that identified in the information collection most recently approved by OMB. This decrease reflects actual program experience in conducting the H2E program over the past three years. VerDate Aug<31>2005 17:16 Jul 25, 2006 Jkt 208001 The number of new Partner facilities recruited per year has been revised downward to reflect average recruit numbers. Similarly, the number of award applicants has also been revised downward to reflect the number of award applications received per year. This decrease is an adjustment. Dated: July 11, 2006.

The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for secondary aluminum production were proposed on February 11, 1999, and promulgated on March 23, 2002, with final rule amendments published 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 (SAPUs) composed of in-line fluxers and process furnaces (including both melting and holding furnaces of various configurations), 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 in 2002, 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 pollutant (HAP) emissions except for those that are area sources of dioxin/furan emissions. In general all NESHAP 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, and malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. The notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all sources subject to NESHAP. Semiannual reports are also required. Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this subpart must maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at least five years following the collection of such measurements, maintenance reports, and records. All VerDate Aug<31>2005 17:16 Jul 25, 2006 Jkt 208001 reports are sent to the delegated state or local authority. In the event that there is no such delegated authority, the reports are sent directly to the EPA regional office. 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. Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 29 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 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: Secondary aluminum production plants. Estimated Number of Respondents: 1,624. Frequency of Response: On occasion, initially, and semiannually. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 93,725. Estimated Total Annual Costs: $8,164,143 which includes $84,000 annualized Capital Startup costs, $142,000 annualized O&M costs, and $7,938,143 annualized labor costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 1,273 hours in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. The decrease in burden is due to a decrease in the number of sources. This decrease is due to a number of sweat furnaces going out of business because of the current economic environment. There is also four less additional sources per-year as compared to the previous ICR. There is a decrease in the capital/ startup and operations and maintenance (O&M) costs from the previous ICR. This is due to the fact that there are four less PO 00000 Frm 00035 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 sources as compared to the previous ICR. Dated: July 11, 2006.

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, are 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: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) for secondary aluminum production were proposed on 
February 11, 1999, and promulgated on March 23, 2002, with final rule 
amendments published 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 
(SAPUs) composed of in-line fluxers and process furnaces (including 
both melting and holding furnaces of various configurations), 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 in 2002, 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 pollutant (HAP) emissions except for those that 
are area sources of dioxin/furan emissions.
    In general all NESHAP 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, and malfunction in the operation of an affected 
facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is 
inoperative. The notifications, reports, and records are essential in 
determining compliance, and are required of all sources subject to 
NESHAP. Semiannual reports are also required.
    Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this subpart 
must maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at 
least five years following the collection of such measurements, 
maintenance reports, and records. All reports are sent to the delegated 
state or local authority. In the event that there is no such delegated 
authority, the reports are sent directly to the EPA regional office.
    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.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 29 
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 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: Secondary aluminum production 
plants.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 1,624.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion, initially, and semiannually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 93,725.
    Estimated Total Annual Costs: $8,164,143 which includes $84,000 
annualized Capital Startup costs, $142,000 annualized O&M costs, and 
$7,938,143 annualized labor costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 1,273 hours in the 
total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved ICR Burdens. The decrease in burden is due to a decrease in 
the number of sources. This decrease is due to a number of sweat 
furnaces going out of business because of the current economic 
environment. There is also four less additional sources per-year as 
compared to the previous ICR.
    There is a decrease in the capital/startup and operations and 
maintenance (O&M) costs from the previous ICR. This is due to the fact 
that there are four less sources as compared to the previous ICR.
