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
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.

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.

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.
[[Page 55907]]
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.
