Estimated number of respondents: 41 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, annually, and semiannually. Total estimated burden: 17,684 hours (per year). ‘‘Burden’’ is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $1,746,207 (per year), includes $16,400 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the respondent PO 00000 Frm 00027 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 burden from the most-recently approved ICR. Based on consultation comments received in development of this ICR, the frequency of occurrence for burden items ‘‘monitoring of VOC emissions and operations’’ and ‘‘recording startup, shutdown, and malfunction’’ were revised to account for 350 days per year operation, which is typical for current plant operation in the industry sector. This results in an increase in respondent burden hours and costs. There is also a decrease of one burden hour for the Agency as a result of rounding. This ICR calculates all burden hours and costs to two decimal places and presents a more precise estimate. Richard T. Westlund, Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division.
