Title: NESHAP for Aluminum, Copper and Other Non-ferrous Metals Foundries ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 2332.03, OMB Control Number 2060– 0630 ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on October 31, 2012. Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to either conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. 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 ZZZZZZ. 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 are also required semiannually. Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 164 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 VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:00 Oct 19, 2012 Jkt 229001 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: Aluminum, copper and other nonferrous metal foundries. Estimated Number of Respondents: 318. Frequency of Response: Initially and occasionally. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 10,482. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $1,015,005, which includes $1,015,005 in labor costs, and neither capital/ startup costs nor operating and maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the total estimated burden hours and cost for the respondents as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This is not due to any program changes. The increase in burden hours and costs is due the fact that the rule is now fully implemented and all effected entities are required to comply with the rule on an annual basis. Furthermore, this ICR uses adjustment labor rates which also increase the burden costs for all labor categories. There is an adjustment decrease in the total burden hours and cost for the Agency as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. The burden hours and costs have decreased since the last ICR because the Agency is no longer expected to conduct activities associated with initial compliance. This ICR uses updated labor rates in estimating the burden costs for all labor categories. John Moses, Director, Collection Strategies Division.

Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to either conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. Abstract: The affected entities are subject to the General Provisions of the NSPS at 40 CFR part 60, subpart A and any changes, or additions to the Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 60, subpart EE. Owners or operators of the affected facilities must make an initial notification, performance tests, periodic reports, and 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 are also required semiannually. Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 58 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 VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:00 Oct 19, 2012 Jkt 229001 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 metal furniture surface coating facilities. Estimated Number of Respondents: 400. Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally and semiannually. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 56,074. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $6,269,572, which includes $5,429,572 in labor costs, no capital/startup costs, and $840,000 in operation and maintenance (O&M) costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the burden hours 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, so there is no significant change in the overall burden. There is an increase in costs for both the respondents and the Agency from the most recently approved ICR. The increase in burden cost is due to an increase in labor rates. This ICR uses updated labor rates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics to calculate burden costs. John Moses, Director, Collection Strategies Division.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: The Site is a closed decorative landscaping rocks and waterfalls manufacturing facility and brick warehouse in a residential neighborhood, located in Sandusky, Erie County, Ohio. The site was discovered by Ohio EPA (OEPA) between 2005 and 2007. During that time OEPA took legal action against Ultimate Industries, Inc. (Ultimate), the owner-operator potentially responsible party. Subsequently, Ultimate discontinued business in June 2004 and the owners, Mr. James Roberts and Mr. Thomas Roberts, filed for personal bankruptcy. Under the proposed Agreement, Citizens Banks, current Settling Party, held a mortgage interest on the business and property. Citizens Bank foreclosed on the mortgage in May 2005 and purchased the Site property in May 2006. In September 2006, Citizens Bank sought a court order to have the Site property sale set aside. A state of Ohio court granted this motion in January 2007. A 30-day period, beginning on the date of publication, is open pursuant to section 122(i) of CERCLA for comments on the proposed Administrative Agreement. Comments should be sent to Ms. Cheryl Allen of the Office of Public Affairs (P–19J), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region V, 77W. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: E:\FR\FM\22OCN1.SGM 22OCN1

    Title: NSPS for Metal Furniture Coating (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart 
EE) (Renewal)
    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 0649.11, OMB Control Number 2060-0106
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on November 30, 2012. 
Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to either conduct or 
sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending 
at OMB.
    Abstract: The affected entities are subject to the General 
Provisions of the NSPS at 40 CFR part 60, subpart A and any changes, or 
additions to the Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 60, subpart EE.
    Owners or operators of the affected facilities must make an initial 
notification, performance tests, periodic reports, and 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 are also required 
semiannually.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 58 
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 metal 
furniture surface coating facilities.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 400.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally and semiannually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 56,074.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $6,269,572, which includes $5,429,572 
in labor costs, no capital/startup costs, and $840,000 in operation and 
maintenance (O&M) costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the burden hours 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, so there is no significant change in the overall 
burden.
    There is an increase in costs for both the respondents and the 
Agency from the most recently approved ICR. The increase in burden cost 
is due to an increase in labor rates. This ICR uses updated labor rates 
from the Bureau of Labor Statistics to calculate burden costs.
