Abstract: The affected entities are
subject to the General Provisions of the
NESHAP (40 CFR Part 63, subpart A),
and any changes, or additions to the
Provisions, specified at 40 CFR Part 63,
subparts RRRRRR, SSSSSS, and
TTTTTT. Owners or operators of the
affected facilities must submit a onetime-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.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities:
Owners or operators of clay ceramics
manufacturing, glass manufacturing,
and secondary nonferrous metals
processing area sources.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (40 CFR Part 63, subparts
RRRRRR, SSSSSS, and TTTTTT).
Estimated number of respondents: 82.
Frequency of response: Initially and
occasionally.

Total estimated burden: 1,763 hours
(per year). ‘‘Burden’’ is defined at 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $182,301 (per
year), which includes $9,854 in
annualized capital/startup and/or
operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is no
change in the labor 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
non-existent, so there is no significant
change in the overall burden. However,
there is an adjustment increase in the
respondent burden cost due to an
update in labor rates. There is also an
adjustment decrease in the total O&M
costs due to a correction. The previous
ICR included annualized capital costs of
initial performance tests and equipment
as O&M costs. This ICR corrects the
O&M costs to only include ongoing
costs to maintain the monitors.

Abstract: The NSPS fulfills the
requirements of sections 111 and 129 of
the Clean Air Act (CAA), which require
EPA to promulgate New Source
Performance Standard (NSPS) for solid
waste incineration units. This regulation
amends the 2000 CISWI NSPS currently
in affect. The information collection
activities required by the NSPS include:
Site requirements, operator training and
qualification requirements, testing,
monitoring and reporting requirements,

one-time and periodic reports, and the
maintenance of records. These activities
will enable EPA to determine initial
compliance with the emission limits for
the regulated pollutants, monitor
compliance with operating parameters,
and ensure that facilities conduct the
proper planning and operator training.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities:
Owners and operators of commercial
and industrial solid waste incineration
units.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart
CCCC).
Estimated number of respondents: 5
(total).
Frequency of response: Initially,
occasionally, and annually.
Total estimated burden: 1,036 hours
(per year). ‘‘Burden’’ is defined at 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $451,859 (per
year), includes $350,476 annualized
capital or operation & maintenance
costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is an
increase in the total estimated
respondent burden when compared
with the ICR currently-approved by
OMB. This increase is due to a
multitude of factors including an
increase in the respondent universe
since the last ICR period, an update to
the labor rates, as well as corrections to
errors in the burden estimates. The
primary correction included revising the
number of existing respondents subject
to annual reporting and recordkeeping
requirements.
There is also an increase in the total
capital and O&M costs due to an
increase in the number of respondents.
In addition, this ICR corrects the
number of respondents that have to
maintain monitors, which also
contributes to the increase in O&M
costs.
There is also a decrease in the Agency
burden and cost due to several
corrections, primarily associated with
the frequency of observing initial stack
tests and reviewing excess emission
reports.

Division.

Human Studies Review Board
Advisory Committee
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice. Request for Nominations
to the Human Studies Review Board
(HSRB) Advisory Committee.
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) invites nominations from
a diverse range of qualified candidates
with expertise in bioethics to be
considered for appointment to its
Human Studies Review Board (HSRB)
advisory committee. Anticipated
vacancies will be filled by September 1,
2014. Sources in addition to this
Federal Register Notice may also be
utilized in the solicitation of nominees.
DATES: Submit nominations by April 11,
2014.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: On February 6, 2006, the
Agency published a final rule for the
protection of human subjects in research
(71 FR 24 6138) that called for creating
a new, independent human studies
review board (i.e., HSRB). The HSRB is
a federal advisory committee operating
in accordance with the Federal
Advisory Committee Act (FACA) 5
U.S.C. App. 2 § 9 (Pub. L. 92–463). The
HSRB provides advice, information, and
recommendations to EPA on issues
related to scientific and ethical aspects
of human subjects research. The major
objectives of the HSRB are to provide
advice and recommendations on: (1)
Research proposals and protocols that
include human subjects; (2) reports of
completed research with human
subjects; and (3) how to strengthen
EPA’s programs for protection of human
subjects of research. The HSRB reports
to the EPA Administrator through EPA’s
Science Advisor. General information
concerning the HSRB, including its
charter, current membership, and
activities can be found on the EPA Web
site at https://www.epa.gov/osa/hsrb/.
HSRB members serve as special
government employees or regular
government employees. Members are
appointed by the EPA Administrator for
either two or three year terms with the
possibility of reappointment for
additional terms, with a maximum of
six years of service. The HSRB usually
meets up to four times a year and the
typical workload for HSRB members is
approximately 25 to 30 hours per
meeting, including the time spent at the
SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00024

meeting. Responsibilities of HSRB
members include reviewing extensive
background materials prior to meetings
of the Board, preparing draft responses
to Agency charge questions, attending
Board meetings, participating in the
discussion and deliberations at these
meetings, drafting assigned sections of
meeting reports, and helping to finalize
Board reports. EPA compensates special
government employees for their time
and provides reimbursement for travel
and other incidental expenses
associated with official government
business. EPA values and welcomes
diversity. In an effort to obtain
nominations of diverse candidates, EPA
encourages nominations of women and
men of all racial and ethnic groups.
The qualifications of nominees for
membership on the HSRB will be
assessed in terms of the specific
expertise sought for the HSRB. Qualified
nominees who agree to be considered
further will be included in a ‘‘Short
List’’. The Short List of nominee names
and biographical sketches will be posted
for 14 calendar days for public comment
on the HSRB Web site: https://
www.epa.gov/osa/hsrb/index.htm. The
public will be encouraged to provide
additional information about the
nominees that EPA should consider. At
the completion of the comment period,
EPA will select new Board members
from the Short List. Candidates not
selected for HSRB membership at this
time may be considered for HSRB
membership as vacancies arise in the
future or for service as consultants to
the HSRB. The Agency estimates that
the names of Short List candidates will
be posted in June 2014. However, please
be advised that this is an approximate
time frame and the date is subject to
change. If you have any questions
concerning posting of Short List
candidates on the HSRB Web site,
please consult the person listed under
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.
Members of the HSRB are subject to
the provisions of 5 CFR Part 2634,
Executive Branch Financial Disclosure,
as supplemented by the EPA in 5 CFR
Part 6401. In anticipation of this
requirement, each nominee will be
asked to submit confidential financial
information that fully discloses, among
other financial interests, the candidate’s
employment, stocks and bonds, and
where applicable, sources of research
support. The information provided is
strictly confidential and will not be
disclosed to the public. Before a
candidate is considered further for
service on the HSRB, EPA will evaluate
each candidate to assess whether there
is any conflict of financial interest,
appearance of a lack of impartiality, or
