Download as PDF emcdonald on DSK2BSOYB1PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 98 / Friday, May 21, 2010 / Notices numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Off-Site Waste and Recovery Operations were proposed on October 13, 1994, and promulgated on July 1, 1996. 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 Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, subpart DD. 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 219 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: Offsite waste and recovery operations. Estimated Number of Respondents: 236. Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 155,212. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $14,686,728, which includes $14,681,368 in labor costs, $0 in capital/ startup costs, and $5,360 in operation and maintenance (O&M) costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the calculation methodology for labor hours in this ICR compared to the previous ICR. This is due to two considerations: (1) the regulations have VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:40 May 20, 2010 Jkt 220001 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 non-existent. There is, however, an apparent increase of 906 hours in respondent labor hours, due to a math error in the previous ICR. Also, there is an increase in both respondent and Agency costs resulting from labor rate increases from 2003 to 2009. In this ICR, the labor burden and cost calculations in Tables 1 and 2 of this ICR were expanded to include managerial and clerical labor rates, and the previous ICR only provided a technical labor rate for 2003. This ICR has been updated to present the most recent available labor rates for each of the three labor categories. Dated: May 17, 2010. John Moses, Director, Collection Strategies Division.

    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1666.08, OMB Control Number 2060-0283.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on July 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 Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, subpart O. 
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 37 
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: Commercial ethylene oxide 
sterilization and fumigation operations.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 119.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 8,662.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $1,467,301, which includes $819,301 in 
labor costs, $65,000 in capital/startup costs, and $583,000 in 
operation and maintenance (O&M) costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the labor hours to 
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 industry is very low, negative 
or non-existent. Therefore, the labor hours in the previous ICR reflect 
the current burden to the respondents and are reiterated in this ICR.
    The increase in labor cost to the respondents and the Agency is due 
to the updating of labor rates to reflect current cost figures.
