Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 178 / Tuesday, September 15, 2015 / Notices
EPA will consider all public
comments in determining whether and
to what extent to continue or expand an
initiative or to select a new one, but will
not respond to the comments received.
Final selection will be incorporated into
the EPA Office of Enforcement and
Compliance Assurance FY 2017
National Program Manager Guidance
Addendum that provides national
program direction for all EPA regional
offices.
Information in support of this Notice
of Public Comment is available via the
Internet at: https://www2.epa.gov/
enforcement/national-enforcementinitiatives.
V. Can the deadline for comments be
extended?
No. EPA will include the final
selection of the national enforcement
initiatives in the National Program
Manager Guidance (NPM Guidance) to
enable EPA, states, and federallyrecognized Indian tribes (tribes) to
effectively align their joint
implementation of environmental laws
to achieve mutual goals. The NPM
guidance must be timely released for
public comment in order to allow the
EPA regions, as well as states and tribes
with approved programs, to consider the
NPM Guidance fully in their annual
planning processes which direct the use
of resources according to the fiscal
calendar. As a result, EPA must receive
public comments by October 14, 2015 in
order to make selections in keeping with
this schedule.
Dated: September 3, 2015.

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,
subpart MMMMM. Owners or operators
of the affected facilities must submit
initial notification reports, 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:
Flexible polyurethane foam fabrication
facilities.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart
MMMMM).
Estimated number of respondents: 17
(total).
Frequency of response: Initially,
occasionally, semiannually, and
annually.
Total estimated burden: 18,900 hours
(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $1,930,000 (per
year), including $29,500 in annualized
capital/startup and/or operation &
maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is an
increase in the total estimated
respondent burden as currently
identified in the OMB Inventory of
Approved Burdens. This burden
increase is due to adjustments EPA has
made to account for industry growth
that has occurred since the ICR was last
approved. EPA has also updated
corresponding labor costs to reflect
current rates referenced from the Bureau
of Labor Statistics. EPA has similarly
adjusted the Agency labor burden to
reflect industry growth over the past
three years and has updated labor costs
to reflect rates referenced from the
Office of Personnel Management.
There is an increase in the total
annual O&M cost as compared to the
previous ICR. The previous ICR’s
estimate only reflected those costs
associated with new sources. The
resulting omission of O&M costs also
incurred by existing sources resulted in
a significant underestimation of the total
cost; therefore, EPA has both reconciled
the noted discrepancy and increased the
total annual O&M cost accordingly.

Acting Director, Collection Strategies
Division.
