Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), EPA is soliciting comments and information to enable it to: (i) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Agency, including whether the information will have practical utility; (ii) Evaluate the accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (iii) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (iv) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including the use of appropriate automated electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. In particular, EPA is requesting comments from very small businesses (those that employ less than 25) or examples of VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:58 Sep 08, 2011 Jkt 223001 specific additional efforts that EPA could make to reduce the paperwork burden for very small businesses affected by this collection. What should I consider when I prepare my comments for EPA? You may find the following suggestions helpful for preparing comments: 1. Explain your views as clearly as possible and provide specific examples. 2. Describe any assumptions that you used. 3. Provide copies of any technical information and/or data you used that support your views. 4. If you estimate potential burden or costs, explain how you arrived at the estimate that you provide. 5. Offer alternative ways to improve the collection activity. 6. Make sure to submit your comments by the deadline identified under DATES. 7. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, be sure to identify the docket ID number assigned to this action in the subject line on the first page of your response. You may also provide the name, date, and Federal Register citation. To what information collection activity or ICR does this apply? Affected entities: Owners or operators who construct or reconstruct a major source of HAP emissions must comply with any applicable MACT standard. Where no MACT standard exists, a caseby-case determination of MACT (caseby-case MACT) under CAA section 112(g) must be made. The owner or operator is responsible for obtaining such a case-by-case MACT determination. State, local, and Tribal agencies with operating permit programs that have been approved by EPA will review information submitted by sources under the CAA section 112(g) provisions. These permitting agencies must determine the level of control that will be necessary to meet case-by-case MACT requirements for new sources. Finally, EPA will review a percentage of the determinations in order to provide oversight of the various State, local, and Tribal permitting authorities. Title: Information Collection Request for 40 CFR Part 63 Regulations Governing Constructed and Reconstructed Major Sources. ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1658.05, OMB Control No. 2060–0373. ICR status: EPA ICR No. 1658.04 expires on January 31, 2010. An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information, unless it PO 00000 Frm 00040 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 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, are 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 regulation is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. Abstract: Section 112(g)(2)(B) of the Clean Air Act as amended in 1990 (CAA) requires that maximum achievable control technology (MACT) standards be met by constructed or reconstructed major sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAP). Where no applicable emission limit has been set, the MACT determination shall be made on a case-by-case basis. The source owner or operator must submit certain information to allow the permitting authority to perform a caseby-case MACT determination (40 CFR 63.43(e)) Permitting agencies, either State, local, Tribal or Federal, review information submitted and make caseby-case MACT determinations. Specific activities and requirements are listed and described in the Supporting Statement for the ICR. Burden Statement: 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; 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. The reporting and recordkeeping burden was estimated as follows: Estimated Number of Industry Respondents: 6. Frequency of Response: Once. Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent: One title V permit application or amendment, or a notification of MACT approval. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 529. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $37,871. E:\FR\FM\09SEN1.SGM 09SEN1 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 175 / Friday, September 9, 2011 / Notices Are there changes in the estimates from the last approval? Primarily, the decrease in burden is due to finalizing the MACT standards for new and existing industrial, commercial, and institutional boilers and process heaters at major source facilities. Therefore our revised estimate of burden is smaller than that estimated in the last ICR. What is the next step in the process for this ICR? EPA will consider any comments received and amend the ICR as appropriate. The final ICR package will then be submitted to OMB for review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.12. At that time, EPA will issue another Federal Register notice pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to announce the submission of the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to submit additional comments to OMB. If you have any questions about this ICR or the approval process, please contact the person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT. Dated: September 1, 2011.

What information is EPA particularly interested in?

    Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction Act 
(PRA), EPA is soliciting comments and information to enable it to:
    (i) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
    (ii) Evaluate the accuracy of the Agency's estimate of the burden 
of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of 
the methodology and assumptions used;
    (iii) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information 
to be collected; and
    (iv) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those 
who are to respond, including the use of appropriate automated 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic 
submission of responses. In particular, EPA is requesting comments from 
very small businesses (those that employ less than 25) or examples of 
specific additional efforts that EPA could make to reduce the paperwork 
burden for very small businesses affected by this collection.

What should I consider when I prepare my comments for EPA?

    You may find the following suggestions helpful for preparing 
comments:
    1. Explain your views as clearly as possible and provide specific 
examples.
    2. Describe any assumptions that you used.
    3. Provide copies of any technical information and/or data you used 
that support your views.
    4. If you estimate potential burden or costs, explain how you 
arrived at the estimate that you provide.
    5. Offer alternative ways to improve the collection activity.
    6. Make sure to submit your comments by the deadline identified 
under DATES.
    7. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, be sure to identify the docket 
ID number assigned to this action in the subject line on the first page 
of your response. You may also provide the name, date, and Federal 
Register citation.

To what information collection activity or ICR does this apply?

    Affected entities: Owners or operators who construct or reconstruct 
a major source of HAP emissions must comply with any applicable MACT 
standard. Where no MACT standard exists, a case-by-case determination 
of MACT (case-by-case MACT) under CAA section 112(g) must be made. The 
owner or operator is responsible for obtaining such a case-by-case MACT 
determination.
    State, local, and Tribal agencies with operating permit programs 
that have been approved by EPA will review information submitted by 
sources under the CAA section 112(g) provisions. These permitting 
agencies must determine the level of control that will be necessary to 
meet case-by-case MACT requirements for new sources. Finally, EPA will 
review a percentage of the determinations in order to provide oversight 
of the various State, local, and Tribal permitting authorities.
    Title: Information Collection Request for 40 CFR Part 63 
Regulations Governing Constructed and Reconstructed Major Sources.
    ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1658.05, OMB Control No. 2060-0373.
    ICR status: EPA ICR No. 1658.04 expires on January 31, 2010. 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, are 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 regulation is 
consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.
    Abstract: Section 112(g)(2)(B) of the Clean Air Act as amended in 
1990 (CAA) requires that maximum achievable control technology (MACT) 
standards be met by constructed or reconstructed major sources of 
hazardous air pollutants (HAP). Where no applicable emission limit has 
been set, the MACT determination shall be made on a case-by-case basis. 
The source owner or operator must submit certain information to allow 
the permitting authority to perform a case-by-case MACT determination 
(40 CFR 63.43(e)) Permitting agencies, either State, local, Tribal or 
Federal, review information submitted and make case-by-case MACT 
determinations. Specific activities and requirements are listed and 
described in the Supporting Statement for the ICR.
    Burden Statement: 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; 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. The reporting and recordkeeping burden was estimated as 
follows:
    Estimated Number of Industry Respondents: 6.
    Frequency of Response: Once.
    Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent: 
One title V permit application or amendment, or a notification of MACT 
approval.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 529.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $37,871.

Are there changes in the estimates from the last approval?

    Primarily, the decrease in burden is due to finalizing the MACT 
standards for new and existing industrial, commercial, and 
institutional boilers and process heaters at major source facilities. 
Therefore our revised estimate of burden is smaller than that estimated 
in the last ICR.

What is the next step in the process for this ICR?

    EPA will consider any comments received and amend the ICR as 
appropriate. The final ICR package will then be submitted to OMB for 
review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.12. At that time, EPA will 
issue another Federal Register notice pursuant to 5 CFR 
1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to announce the submission of the ICR to OMB and the 
opportunity to submit additional comments to OMB. If you have any 
questions about this ICR or the approval process, please contact the 
person listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
