Title: NESHAP for Lime
Manufacturing.
ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number
2072.04, OMB Control Number 2060–
0544.
ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to
expire on January 31, 2010. 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 affected entities are
subject to the General Provisions of the
NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A,
and any changes, or additions to the
General Provisions specified at 40 CFR
part 63, subpart AAAAA. Owners or
operators of the affected facilities must
submit a one-time-only report of any
physical or operational changes, initial
performance tests, and periodic reports
and results. 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. Reports, at a
minimum, are required semiannually.
Burden Statement: The annual public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is
estimated to average 70 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: Lime
manufacturing plants.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
62.
Frequency of Response: Initially,
occasionally, and semiannually.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
14,723.
Estimated Total Annual Cost:
$1,509,024, which includes $1,384,616
in labor costs, $88,908 in capital/startup
costs, and $35,500 in operation and
maintenance (O&M) costs.
Changes in the Estimates: The
increase in burden hours and number of
responses from the most recently
approved ICR is due to an increase in
the number of respondents. This ICR
based the number of respondents on the
number of lime manufacturing plants
identified during the rulemaking and
accounted for the one additional
respondent per year since the rule
became final. The previous ICR had
identified the number of respondents as
the number of companies with plants
subject to the rule, but each plant
should be considered a separate
respondent and this correction is
reflected in this ICR. An increase in
burden per response also occurred due
to an incorrect calculation of the
number of responses in the previous
ICR. The decrease in capital and annual
O&M costs reflects a change made to
account for the fact that initial
performance testing for Method 5 has
been completed for existing sources,
and the only units subject to initial
testing is estimated to be one
respondent per year. The existing 61
respondents are only subject to repeat
performance testing every five years, or
12.2 respondents per year. The capital
and O&M costs also changed to include
the costs for bag leak detection monitors
to be consistent with the costs presented
in the 2004 final rulemaking notice.

Proposal Not To Reissue NPDES
General Permit for Egg Production
Operations in New Mexico, Oklahoma,
and on Indian Lands in New Mexico
and Oklahoma (NMG800000 and
OKG800000)
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice of Proposal not to reissue
NPDES General Permit.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: EPA Region 6 is providing
notice that the Agency does not intend
to reissue the National Pollutant
Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
General Permit for Egg Production
Operations (EPOs) in New Mexico and
Oklahoma (NMG800000 and
OKG800000) which was issued on July
18, 2002 (67 FR 47362). The permit
expired on August 17, 2007 and was
never reissued. Part I.G of the permit
stipulates that the permit be
administratively continued until the
permit is reissued or EPA publishes a
determination not to reissue the permit.
With this notice, EPA provides notice of
its determination not to reissue the
permit. No facilities applied for or were
granted coverage under this permit. At
this time, any facility eligible for
coverage under this general permit that
is seeking NPDES permit coverage
should submit an application for an
individual permit.

At the
time of permit issuance, the United Egg
Producers (UEP), a farmer cooperative
that represents egg producers
nationwide, was in an XL project
agreement with EPA to allow eligible
facilities to obtain permit coverage
under a general permit. Project XL was
a national pilot program that allowed
state and local governments, businesses
and federal facilities to develop with
EPA more cost-effective ways of
achieving environmental and public
health protection. With this notice not
to reissue the general permit, EPA is
closing out this XL project as it is no
longer active.
