    Title: NESHAP for Printing and Publishing Industry (Renewal).
    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1739.06, OMB Control Number 2060-0335.
    ICR Status: This ICR is schedule to expire on March 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 National Emission Standards of Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Printing and Publishing Industry were proposed 
on March 14, 1995 (60 FR 13664), promulgated on May 30, 1996 (61 FR 
27131), and amended on May 24, 2006 (71 FR 29792). These standards 
apply to the following facilities in 40 CFR subpart KK: Publication 
rotogravure, product and packaging rotogravure, and wide-web 
flexographic printing presses at major sources. The effective date was 
May 30, 1999, for sources existing on May 30, 1996. For new sources or 
reconstructed sources after May 30, 1996, the effective date of startup 
is May 30, 1996, whichever is later.
    Owners and operators of a new and existing area source are subject 
to the General Provision (40 CFR part 63, subpart A). In general, all 
NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests 
plans, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected 
facilities. For the facilities installing continuous monitoring systems 
(CMS), there are performance test and maintenance reports.
    They 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 are required of all affected facilities 
subject to NESHAP. Semiannual summary reports are also required.
    Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this subpart 
must maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at 
least five years following the collection 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 KK, as 
authorized in sections 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 
regulations listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15, are 
identified on the form and/or instrument, if applicable.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information estimated to average 95 hour 
per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial 
resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or 
disclose, and 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. All 
existing ways will have to adjust to comply with any previously 
applicable instructions and requirements that 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: Printing and publishing industry.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 352.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, annually, and semiannually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 58,215.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $5,888,997, which includes $5,474,997 
in labor costs, $0 in capital/startup costs, and $414,000 in operation 
and maintenance (O&M) costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a change in this ICR as compared 
to the previous one. Based on our discussions with the printing and 
publishing industry representatives, the printing industry in 
particular, will be experiencing essentially a flat production in the 
coming years with no new facilities anticipated. This ICR also reflects 
the most recent hourly labor rates which, takes into account the 
managerial, technical and clerical burdens as compared to the previous 
ICR. Corrections include a minor mathematical error and recalculation 
of the number of responses.
    There is a small increase in the capital/startup and operations and 
maintenance (O&M) costs from the previous ICR, which is due to 
rounding-up the number of affective respondents.
