Download as PDF cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES 18990 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 72 / Monday, April 16, 2007 / Notices Production, published at 40 CFR part 63, subpart III, were proposed on December 27, 1996, and promulgated on October 7, 1998. These standards apply to owners or operators of new and existing facilities that engage in the manufacture of flexible polyurethane foam products which emit hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). This includes facilities making slabstock flexible polyurethane foam (slabstock foam), rebond flexible polyurethane foam (rebond foam), and/or molded flexible polyurethane foam (molded foam). In general, all MACT standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports. Owners or operators of flexible polyurethane foam production facilities to which this rule is applicable must choose one of the compliance options described in the standard or reduce HAP emissions to below the compliance level. Specifically, the rule requirements for slabstock foam producers include an initial notification, notification of compliance status, semiannual reports and annual compliance certifications. In addition, respondents are required to submit a precompliance report that describes the HAP compliance procedures, and recordkeeping procedures. Those electing to comply with the slabstock foam emission limitation using recovery devices must measure and record emissions as specified in 40 CFR 63.1297 of the rule. The rule requirements for molded and rebond foam producers include a notification of compliance status report and an annual compliance certification. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all sources subject to MACT. 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 five 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 43 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 VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:24 Apr 13, 2007 Jkt 211001 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: Flexible polyurethane foam production facilities. Estimated Number of Respondents: 132. Frequency of Response: Initially, semiannually and annually. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 9,047. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $572,320, which includes $0 annual Startup costs, $0 Operating and Maintenance (O&M) costs, and $572,320 annualized Labor costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the labor hours or cost 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. Second, the growth rate for the industry is very low, negative or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden. Dated: April 6, 2007.

Abstract: Owners/operators of affected phosphoric acid manufacturing and phosphate fertilizer production must submit one-time only notifications (where applicable) and annual reports on performance test results. Semiannual reports are required. In addition, a quarterly report is required when excess emissions occur. Subparts AA and BB require respondents to install monitoring devices to measure the pressure drop and liquid flow rate for wet scrubbers. These operating parameters are permitted to vary within ranges determined concurrently with performance tests. Exceedances of the operating ranges are considered violations of the site-specific operating limits.

    Title: NESHAP for Phosphoric Acid Manufacturing and Phosphate 
Fertilizers Production (40 CFR part 63, subparts AA & BB).
    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1790.04, OMB Control Number 2060-0361.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on May 31, 2007. Under 
OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct, or sponsor the 
collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. 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 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: Owners/operators of affected phosphoric acid 
manufacturing and phosphate fertilizer production must submit one-time 
only notifications (where applicable) and annual reports on performance 
test results. Semiannual reports are required. In addition, a quarterly 
report is required when excess emissions occur.
    Subparts AA and BB require respondents to install monitoring 
devices to measure the pressure drop and liquid flow rate for wet 
scrubbers. These operating parameters are permitted to vary within 
ranges determined concurrently with performance tests. Exceedances of 
the operating ranges are considered violations of the site-specific 
operating limits.
    The standards require sources to determine and record the amount of 
phosphatic feedstock material processed or stored on a daily basis. 
Respondents also maintain records of specific information needed to 
determine that the standards are being achieved and maintained.
    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 Number 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 are estimated to average 18 
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; 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: Phosphoric acid manufacturing and 
phosphate fertilizers production plants.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 12.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, quarterly, semiannually, and 
annually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 1,542.
    Estimated Total Annual Costs: $109,908, which includes no 
annualized capital/startup costs, $11,000 in annual O&M costs, and 
$98,908 in annual labor costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the labor hours, or 
cost 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. Second, the growth rate for the industry is very low, negative 
or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall 
burden.
