Title: NESHAP for Shipbuilding and
Ship Repair Facilities—Surface Coating
(Renewal).
ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number
1712.06, OMB Control Number 2060–
0330.
ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to
expire on August 31, 2009. 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,
and 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 respondents are owners
or operators of Shipbuilding and Ship
Repair Facilities. Operations covered
include: primer and top coat application
in manufacturing processes and in ship
repair processes. The National Emission
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants
(NESHAP) regulation, 40 CFR part 63,
subpart II, was promulgated on
December 15, 1995. Owners or operators
of the affected facilities described must
make initial reports when a source
becomes subject, conduct and report on
a performance test, demonstrate and
report on continuous monitor
performance, and maintain records of
the occurrence and duration of any
startup, shutdown, or malfunction in
the operation of an affected facility.
Semiannual reports of excess emissions
are required. These notifications,
reports, and records are essential in
determining compliance; and are
required, in general, of all sources
subject to NESHAP.
Any owner or operator subject to the
provisions of this part shall maintain a
file of these measurements, and retain
PO 00000
Frm 00038
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
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.
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 40
CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9 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 255 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 shipbuilding and
ship repair facilities.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
56.
Frequency of Response:
Semiannually, On Occasion, Initially.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
28,594 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Cost:
$1,740,381 in labor costs, exclusively.
There are no capital/startup or
Operations and Maintenance costs
associated with this ICR.
Changes in the Estimates: There is no
change in the burden hours or cost to
the respondents in this ICR compared to
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 respondents is very low,
negative or nonexistent. Therefore, the
labor hours and cost figures in the
previous ICR reflect the current burden
to the respondents and are reiterated in
E:\FR\FM\04AUN1.SGM
04AUN1
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 148 / Tuesday, August 4, 2009 / Notices
this ICR. In the previous ICR, the cost
figure was rounded-up to the nearest
thousand. In this ICR, the figure is
rounded to the nearest dollar.
Dated: July 29, 2009.

SUMMARY: EPA Region 6 today issues a
National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System general permit for
discharges from eligible owners/
operators of existing concentrated
animal feeding operations (CAFOs), in
New Mexico, except those discharges on
Indian Country. All currently operating
animal feeding operations that are
defined as CAFOs or designated as
CAFOs by the permitting authority (See
part VII Definitions, ‘‘CAFOs’’) and that
are subject to 40 CFR part 412, subparts
A (Horses) and C (Dairy Cows and Cattle
Other than Veal Calves) are eligible for
coverage under this permit. This permit
covers the types of animal feeding
operations listed above which meet the
definition of a CAFO and discharge or
propose to discharge pollutants to
waters of the United States. A CAFO
proposes to discharge if it is designed,
constructed, operated, or maintained
such that a discharge will occur.

US Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of
Reclamation, New Mexico Department
of Agriculture, Dairy Producers of New
Mexico, Seaboard Foods, Oklahoma
Farm Bureau, Texas Cattle Feeders
Association, Oklahoma Pork Council,
and Amigos Bravos.
EPA Region 6 has considered all
comments received. In response to those
comments the following significant
changes were made to the proposed
permit.
1. Based on NMED condition of
certification under section 401 of the
Clean Water Act, part III.A.8 of the
permit has been changed to require the
use of a certified specialist to develop,
modify, review, and/or approve the
nutrient management plan.
2. Part III.A.3.h has been added to the
permit to require that the nutrient
management plan (NMP) include site
maps of the production and land
application areas.
3. Part II.A.2.a.x has been modified to
include the term ‘‘as appropriate.’’ Part
II.A.2.a.x and part III.A.3.b have also
been modified to clarify that retention
structures must include adequate
storage capacity for clean water that is
not diverted.
4. EPA has removed part III.A.3.f.i-iv
from the permit and has modified part
III.A.3.f to require that the NMP include
any additional information necessary to
assess the adequacy of the application
rates included in the NMP.
5. EPA has modified part III.A.7.d of
the permit to require that manure
sampling be conducted annually prior
to the first land application event of
each year of permit coverage and to
allow for representative sampling
protocols to be established in the NMP.
6. The spills reporting requirement
has been removed from part III.D.3 of
the permit and was replaced with a
requirement to document spills and
clean-up activity.
7. Part III.D.3 of the permit has been
modified to state that handling
procedures and storage for any toxic and
other pollutants must be specified in the
NMP.
8. EPA has modified part III.D.1.c to
state that any mechanical or structural
damage to the liner must be evaluated
by a Natural Resources Conservation
Service (NRCS) Engineer or Professional
Engineer and that the permittee shall
have a NRCS Engineer or Professional
Engineer review documentation.
9. The infiltration monitoring
requirement of part III.D.1.c has been
PO 00000
Frm 00039
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
38615
modified to be based on a direct
hydrological connection to waters of the
United States. EPA has also modified
this section to allow for other
appropriate measures to be used in lieu
of leak detection systems or monitoring
wells.
10. EPA has modified the permit to
require that annual reports be submitted
to EPA and NMED on January 31 as
opposed to basing the due date on the
NOI submittal date.
11. Parts VI.B.1, VI.B.2, and VI.C.1
have been removed from the permit as
they are repetitive of provisions found
elsewhere in the permit.
12. EPA has added part I.H to address
the procedure for a change in
ownership.
13. The Water Quality-Based
Reduction Plan requirement of part
II.A.3.c has been removed from the
permit.
14. EPA has modified part III.C to
exclude amounts less than 10 tons per
year to a single recipient from the
transfer of manure, litter, and process
wastewater recordkeeping requirement.
15. EPA has removed the notification
requirement form part III.D.8.a and will
rely on the notification requirement of
part III.D.5, which has been modified to
require notification within 48 hours.
16. The proposed corrective action
requirement proposed as part II.A.3.d
has been clarified to address discharges
or proposed discharges to impaired
waters and has been moved to part
II.A.3.a.iv.
17. EPA has modified part IV.A of the
permit to require CAFOs to orally report
the discharge of pollutants to waters of
the United States to NMED.
18. Part I.D.8 and part I.E.8 of the final
permit have been amended to clarify
that new sources must submit an
Environmental Impact Document (EID),
not a previous EPA National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
review document, with their NOIs.
19. Part II.A.5.c has been amended to
clarify that there shall be no
unauthorized dry weather discharges
from land application sites.
20. EPA has clarified part I.E.1.a.i to
state that for any facility that received
authorization to discharge under the
1993 CAFO general permit and
complies with the 90-day NOI
timeframe, authorization under the 1993
CAFO permit is automatically
continued until coverage is granted
under this permit or coverage is
otherwise terminated.
21. EPA has amended part I.E.8 to
clarify that the applicant must submit to
EPA information describing an
expansion so that EPA may determine if
the expansion is a new source.

burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 255
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 shipbuilding
and ship repair facilities.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 56.
Frequency of Response: Semiannually, On Occasion, Initially.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 28,594 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Cost: $1,740,381 in labor costs,
exclusively. There are no capital/startup or Operations and Maintenance
costs associated with this ICR.
Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the burden hours or
cost to the respondents in this ICR compared to 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 respondents is very low,
negative or nonexistent. Therefore, the labor hours and cost figures in
the previous ICR reflect the current burden to the respondents and are
reiterated in
[[Page 38615]]
this ICR. In the previous ICR, the cost figure was rounded-up to the
nearest thousand. In this ICR, the figure is rounded to the nearest
dollar.
