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: Friction materials manufacturing. Estimated Number of Respondents: 4. Frequency of Response: Annually, semiannually, initially and occasionally. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 1,296. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $104,512, which is comprised of $1,088 in O&M costs, $103,424 in labor costs, and no annualized capital costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the labor hours or cost in this ICR compared to the previous ICR except for the correction of a small mathematical error in the previous ICR. This is due to two considerations: (1) The regulations have not changed over the past three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three years; and (2) 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 labor hours and cost figures in the previous ICR are used in this ICR and there is no change in burden to industry.

These standards apply to any existing, reconstructed, or new affected sources. These standards apply to each operation that is a major source of hazardous air pollutants (HAP), which includes both the miscellaneous viscose processes source category and the cellulose ethers productions source category. The viscose process includes the cellulose food casing, rayon, cellulosic sponge, and cellophane operations, and the cellulose ethers includes all of the cellulose ether operations. Respondents of affected sources are subject to the requirements of 40 CFR part 63, subpart A, the General Provisions, unless the regulation specifies otherwise. Owners or operators must submit notification that the facility is subject to the rule; notification of performance test; notification of compliance status (including results of performance tests and other initial compliance demonstrations) and semiannual compliance reports. Owners or operators of cellulose products manufacturing facilities subject to the rule must 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 EPA regional office. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart UUUU, as authorized in section 112 and 114(a) of the Clean Air Act. The required information consists of emissions data and other information that have been determined to be private. 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 is estimated to average 141 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 17:13 Apr 30, 2008 Jkt 214001 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: Cellulose products manufacturing. Estimated Number of Respondents: 13. Frequency of Response: Weekly, semiannually, and occasionally. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 12,088. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $965,095, which includes $1,014 in O&M costs, $964,081 in labor costs, and no annualized capital 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. Secondly, the growth rate for the industry is very low, negative or nonexistent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden. It should be noted that the previous ICR rounded the burden cost down to the nearest one thousand. In this ICR, the exact cost figure is reported which results in an apparent increase in the cost when, in fact, no increase has occurred. Since there are no changes in the regulatory requirements and there is no significant industry growth, the labor hours and cost figures in the previous ICR are used in this ICR, thus there is no change in burden to industry.

    Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Cellulose Products

[[Page 24069]]

Manufacturing were proposed on August 28, 2000 (65 FR 52166) and 
promulgated on June 11, 2002 (67 FR 40043). These standards apply to 
any existing, reconstructed, or new affected sources. These standards 
apply to each operation that is a major source of hazardous air 
pollutants (HAP), which includes both the miscellaneous viscose 
processes source category and the cellulose ethers productions source 
category. The viscose process includes the cellulose food casing, 
rayon, cellulosic sponge, and cellophane operations, and the cellulose 
ethers includes all of the cellulose ether operations. Respondents of 
affected sources are subject to the requirements of 40 CFR part 63, 
subpart A, the General Provisions, unless the regulation specifies 
otherwise.
    Owners or operators must submit notification that the facility is 
subject to the rule; notification of performance test; notification of 
compliance status (including results of performance tests and other 
initial compliance demonstrations) and semiannual compliance reports. 
Owners or operators of cellulose products manufacturing facilities 
subject to the rule must 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 EPA regional office. This information is being 
collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart UUUU, as 
authorized in section 112 and 114(a) of the Clean Air Act. The required 
information consists of emissions data and other information that have 
been determined to be private.
    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 is estimated to average 141 
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: Cellulose products manufacturing.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 13.
    Frequency of Response: Weekly, semiannually, and occasionally.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 12,088.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $965,095, which includes $1,014 in O&M 
costs, $964,081 in labor costs, and no annualized capital 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. Secondly, the growth rate for the industry is very low, negative 
or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall 
burden. It should be noted that the previous ICR rounded the burden 
cost down to the nearest one thousand. In this ICR, the exact cost 
figure is reported which results in an apparent increase in the cost 
when, in fact, no increase has occurred.
    Since there are no changes in the regulatory requirements and there 
is no significant industry growth, the labor hours and cost figures in 
the previous ICR are used in this ICR, thus there is no change in 
burden to industry.
