Download as PDF mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES 24946 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 87 / Thursday, May 6, 2010 / Notices 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 the records for at least five years following the date of such measurements and records. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance; and are required, in general, of all sources subject to NESHAP. 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 DDD, 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 132 hours 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: Mineral wool production. Estimated Number of Respondents: 6. Frequency of Response: Initially, and semiannually. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 1,581. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $153,169, which includes $148,669 in VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:53 May 05, 2010 Jkt 220001 labor costs, no capital/startup costs, and $4,500 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 mineral wool production industry representative, the decrease is due to the closures of a number of facilities that the industry has been experiencing. There is no growth anticipated in the mineral wool production industry over the next three years. There is a decrease in the capital/ startup and operations and maintenance (O&M) costs from the previous ICR, which is also due to the decrease in the number of mineral wool production facilities.
