Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Polyether Polyols Production (40 CFR part 63 subpart PPP) were proposed on September 4, 1997 (62 FR 46818), and promulgated on June 1, 1999 (64 FR 29420). These regulations apply to existing facilities and new facilities that engage in the manufacture of polyether polyols (which also include polyether monools). The affected entities are subject to the General Provisions of the NESHAP at 40 CFR part 62, subpart A, and any changes, or additions to the General Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, subpart PPP. Owners or operators of the affected facilities must submit initial notification, performance tests, and PO 00000 Frm 00034 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 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. 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 PPP, as authorized in section 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 the EPA regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15, and are identified on the form and/or instrument, if applicable. Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 72 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: Owners or operators of polyether polyols production. Estimated Number of Respondents: 83. Frequency of Response: Initially, annually, and semiannually. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 13,189. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $1,469,280, which includes $1,263,792 in labor costs, $205,488 in capital/ startup costs, and no operation and maintenance (O&M) costs. E:\FR\FM\04APN1.SGM 04APN1 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 65 / Wednesday, April 4, 2012 / Notices Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the total estimated burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This increase is not due to any program changes. The adjustment increase in burden hours from the most recently approved ICR is due to an increase in the number of sources subject to the standard. The increase in costs reflects updated labor rates for both the respondents and Agency. There is also an increase in the capital/startup costs in this ICR compared to the previous ICR due to an increase in the number of affected sources. The previous ICR estimates annualized capital/startup costs for existing and new facilities. This ICR reflects the on-going annualized capital/ startup costs for all facilities including new facilities that have become subject to the standard in the past three years.

    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1811.07, OMB Control Number 2060-0415.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on May 31, 2012. Under 
OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the 
collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB.
    Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Polyether Polyols Production (40 CFR part 63 
subpart PPP) were proposed on September 4, 1997 (62 FR 46818), and 
promulgated on June 1, 1999 (64 FR 29420). These regulations apply to 
existing facilities and new facilities that engage in the manufacture 
of polyether polyols (which also include polyether mono-ols). The 
affected entities are subject to the General Provisions of the NESHAP 
at 40 CFR part 62, subpart A, and any changes, or additions to the 
General Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, subpart PPP.
    Owners or operators of the affected facilities must submit initial 
notification, 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.
    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 PPP, as 
authorized in section 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 the EPA 
regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15, and are 
identified on the form and/or instrument, if applicable.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 72 
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: Owners or operators of polyether 
polyols production.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 83.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, annually, and semiannually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 13,189.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $1,469,280, which includes $1,263,792 
in labor costs, $205,488 in capital/startup costs, and no operation and 
maintenance (O&M) costs.

[[Page 20387]]

    Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the 
total estimated burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved Burdens. This increase is not due to any program changes. The 
adjustment increase in burden hours from the most recently approved ICR 
is due to an increase in the number of sources subject to the standard. 
The increase in costs reflects updated labor rates for both the 
respondents and Agency.
    There is also an increase in the capital/startup costs in this ICR 
compared to the previous ICR due to an increase in the number of 
affected sources. The previous ICR estimates annualized capital/startup 
costs for existing and new facilities. This ICR reflects the on-going 
annualized capital/startup costs for all facilities including new 
facilities that have become subject to the standard in the past three 
years.
