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 HH. 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 are required
semiannually at a minimum.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: Oil and
natural gas production facilities.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart
HH).
Estimated number of respondents:
3,735 (total).
Frequency of response: Initially,
annually, and semiannually.
Total estimated burden: 46,642 hours
(per year). ‘‘Burden’’ is defined at 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $5,431,638 (per
year), which includes $910,733
annualized capital or operation &
maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: This ICR
combines the requirements from the
existing regulations and the 2012
amendment, which are EPA ICR
Numbers 1788.09 and 2440.02,
PO 00000
Frm 00034
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
respectively. The 2012 rule amended
title 40, chapter I, part 63 subpart HH to
include emission sources for which
standards were not previously
developed. This results in an increase in
the number of affected major sources.
The amendment did not affect the
number of area sources.
Several changes were made to this
ICR: (1) A correction in the estimated
number of respondents based on recent
data obtained during development of
the 2012 rule amendment; (2) Inclusion
of requirements associated with the
2012 amendment, including affirmative
defense; and (3) Update to labor rates
used in calculating burden estimates.
The changes result in an overall
decrease in the labor hours and costs
and an increase in the total capital and
O&M costs as currently identified in the
OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens.
The current OMB Inventory adds the
burden from EPA ICR Numbers 1788.09
and 2440.02, double-counting the
burden associated with several
requirements. This ICR has been
updated to remove any duplicates and
to reflect the revised standard correctly.

Abstract: Under Section 206(a) of the
Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7521), onhighway engine and vehicle
manufacturers may not legally introduce
their products into U.S. commerce
unless EPA has certified that their
production complies with applicable
emission standards. Per section 207(a),
original vehicle manufacturers must
warrant that vehicles are free from
defects in materials and workmanship
that would cause the vehicle not to
comply with emission regulations
during its useful life. Section 207(a)
directs EPA to provide certification to
those manufacturers or builders of
automotive aftermarket parts that
demonstrate that the installation and
use of their products will not cause
failure of the engine or vehicle to
comply with emission standards. An
aftermarket part is any part offered for
sale for installation in or on a motor
vehicle after such vehicle has left the
vehicle manufacturer’s production line
(40 CFR 85.2113(b)). Participation in the
aftermarket certification program is
voluntary. Aftermarket part
manufacturers or builders
(manufacturers) electing to participate
conduct emission and durability testing
as described in 40 CFR part 85, subpart
V, and submit data about their products
and testing procedures. Any information
submitted to the Agency for which a
claim of confidentiality is made is
safeguarded according to policies set
forth in CFR title 40, chapter 1, part 2,
subpart B—Confidentiality of Business
Information (see 40 CFR part 2).
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities:
manufacturers or builders of automotive
aftermarket parts.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
voluntary.
Estimated number of respondents: 1
(total).
Frequency of response: On occasion.
Total estimated burden: 547 hours
(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $19,063 (per
year), which includes $1,955 annualized
capital or operation & maintenance
costs.
Changes in Estimates: There is no
change in the total estimated respondent
