information about the substitute
refrigerant, and other information. This
information is needed so that
subsequent technicians working on the
MAC system will be able to service the
equipment properly, decreasing the
likelihood of significant refrigerant
cross-contamination and potential
failure of air conditioning systems and
recovery/recycling equipment.
Burden Statement: The annual public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is
estimated to average 0.08 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:
Vehicle Air Conditioning Repair
Facilities.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
87,000.
Frequency of Response: Once per and
upon retrofit of a motor vehicle air
conditioner.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
27,778.
Estimated Total Annual Cost:
$2,011,111, which includes zero capital
startup cost, $33,333 annualized O&M
costs and $ 1,977,778 annual labor cost.
Changes in the Estimates: There is a
decrease of 55,555 hours in the total
estimated burden currently identified in
the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR
Burdens. This decrease is because the
number of cars that could be retrofitted
to use a SNAP substitute refrigerant is
decreasing. New cars sold before 1994
contain CFC–12 air conditioning
systems and the number of those cars in
operation has decreased since this last
ICR renewal. (New cars sold after 1994
contain a SNAP substitute refrigerant
and do not need to be retrofitted.) With
fewer CFC–12 cars (pre-1994 cars) on
the road, there are fewer cars that will
be retrofitted to a new SNAP approved
refrigerant and subject to this ICR.

Abstract: The New Source
Performance Standards (NSPS) for
Storage Vessels for Petroleum Liquids
for which Construction, Reconstruction
or Modification Commenced after June
11, 1973, and prior to May 19, 1978
were proposed on June 11, 1973, and
promulgated on March 8, 1974. These
regulations apply to facilities that store
petroleum liquids in storage vessels
with a storage capacity greater than
151,416 liters (40,000 gallons)
including: storage vessels with capacity
greater than 151,416 liters (40,000
gallons) but not exceeding 246,052 liters
(65,000 gallons), and where
construction or modification
commenced after March 8, 1974, and
prior to May 19, 1978; and storage
vessels that have a capacity greater than
246,052 liters (65,000 gallons), and
where construction or modification
commenced after June 11, 1973, and
prior to May 19, 1978. Facilities that are
not subject to these standards are
storage vessels of petroleum or
condensate stored, processed, and/or
treated at a drilling and production
facility prior to custody transfer. This
information is being collected to assure
compliance with 40 CFR part 60,
subpart K.
In general, all NSPS standards require
initial notifications, performance tests,
and periodic reports. Affected facilities
report only if a storage vessel is no
longer subject to 40 CFR part 60, subpart
K and will become subject to the current
storage vessel standard, 40 CFR part 60,
subpart Kb. The NSPS subpart K
standards also require the owner/
operator to document (recordkeeping)
the activities of the storage period, the
maximum true vapor pressure, and the
type of petroleum liquid stored. This
information is recorded only when a
petroleum liquid is changed in the
storage vessel. 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 required of all sources subject to
NSPS.

Any owner or operator subject to the
provisions of this part shall maintain a
file of these measurements, and retain
the file for at least two years following
the date 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 United
States Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) regional office.
Burden Statement: The annual public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is
estimated to average 3.5 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:
Owners or operators of facilities that
store petroleum liquids for which
construction, reconstruction or
modification commenced after June 11,
1973, and prior to May 19, 1978.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
220.
Frequency of Response: Initially, on
Occasion.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
769 hours.
Estimated Total Annualized Cost:
$65,142, which includes $0 annualized
capital startup costs, $0 Operating and
Maintenance Costs (O&M) and $65,142
annual labor costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is a
small increase of 100 in the labor hours
and no change in the annualized cost,
which includes capital/startup and
operation and maintenance costs, in this
ICR compared to the previous ICR. This
is due to two considerations. First, the
regulations have not changed over the
past three years and are not anticipated
to change over the next three years.
Secondly, the growth rate for the
industry is very low, negative or nonexistent, so there is no significant
change in the overall burden. Since
there are no changes in the regulatory
PO 00000
Frm 00020

requirements and there is no significant
industry growth, the slight increase in
the labor hours is only due to the
inclusion of managerial and clerical
hours and updating of the technical
labor rate. In addition, there is no
change in the annualized cost in this
renewal when compared to the previous
ICR.

Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Storage
Vessels for Petroleum Liquids for which Construction, Reconstruction or
Modification Commenced after June 11, 1973, and prior to May 19, 1978
were proposed on June 11, 1973, and promulgated on March 8, 1974. These
regulations apply to facilities that store petroleum liquids in storage
vessels with a storage capacity greater than 151,416 liters (40,000
gallons) including: storage vessels with capacity greater than 151,416
liters (40,000 gallons) but not exceeding 246,052 liters (65,000
gallons), and where construction or modification commenced after March
8, 1974, and prior to May 19, 1978; and storage vessels that have a
capacity greater than 246,052 liters (65,000 gallons), and where
construction or modification commenced after June 11, 1973, and prior
to May 19, 1978. Facilities that are not subject to these standards are
storage vessels of petroleum or condensate stored, processed, and/or
treated at a drilling and production facility prior to custody
transfer. This information is being collected to assure compliance with
40 CFR part 60, subpart K.
In general, all NSPS standards require initial notifications,
performance tests, and periodic reports. Affected facilities report
only if a storage vessel is no longer subject to 40 CFR part 60,
subpart K and will become subject to the current storage vessel
standard, 40 CFR part 60, subpart Kb. The NSPS subpart K standards also
require the owner/operator to document (recordkeeping) the activities
of the storage period, the maximum true vapor pressure, and the type of
petroleum liquid stored. This information is recorded only when a
petroleum liquid is changed in the storage vessel. 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 required of all sources subject to NSPS.
Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part shall
maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at least
two years following the date 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 United States Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) regional office.
Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 3.5
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: Owners or operators of facilities
that store petroleum liquids for which construction, reconstruction or
modification commenced after June 11, 1973, and prior to May 19, 1978.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 220.
Frequency of Response: Initially, on Occasion.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 769 hours.
Estimated Total Annualized Cost: $65,142, which includes $0
annualized capital startup costs, $0 Operating and Maintenance Costs
(O&M) and $65,142 annual labor costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is a small increase of 100 in the
labor hours and no change in the annualized cost, which includes
capital/startup and operation and maintenance costs, in this ICR
compared to the previous ICR. This is due to two considerations. First,
the regulations have not changed over the past three years and are not
anticipated to change over the next three years. Secondly, the growth
rate for the industry is very low, negative or non-existent, so there
is no significant change in the overall burden. Since there are no
changes in the regulatory requirements and there is no significant
industry growth, the slight increase in the labor hours is only due to
the inclusion of managerial and clerical hours and updating of the
technical labor rate. In addition, there is no change in the annualized
cost in this renewal when compared to the previous ICR.
