Abstract: Owners and operators of
three types of affected units at major
source petroleum refineries (fluid
catalytic cracking units for catalyst
regeneration, catalytic reforming units,
and sulfur recovery units) are required
to comply with reporting and record
keeping requirements for the General
Provisions (40 CFR part 63, subpart A),
as well as the applicable standards in 40
CFR part 63, subpart UUU. This
includes submitting initial notifications,
performance tests and periodic reports
and results, and maintaining 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. These reports are
used by EPA to determine compliance
with these standards.
Form Numbers: None.

catalytic reforming units, and sulfur
recovery units.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (40 CFR part 63 Subparts
UUU).
Estimated number of respondents:
142 (total).
Frequency of response: Initially,
occasionally and semiannually.
Total estimated burden: 20,200 hours
(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $10,900,000 (per
year), which includes $8,820,000 in
either annualized capital/startup or
operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is an
increase in the total estimated burden as
currently identified in the OMB
Inventory of Approved Burdens. The
increase in burden from the mostrecently approved ICR is primarily due
to the December 2015 final rule
amendments. The changes to 40 CFR
part 63 Subpart UUU caused by the rule
amendment are summarized in section
1(b). The specific changes that impacted
this ICR are (1) the elimination of the
SSM exemption, (2) the requirement for
FCCUs to do periodic PM performance
testing and a one-time HCN
performance test, and (3) revisions to
requirements for catalytic reforming
catalyst regeneration when using active
purging. This ICR accounts for the
burden presented previously in both
EPA ICR Number 1844.06 (existing rule)
and EPA ICR Number 1844.07 (2015
amendment).
The elimination of the SSM
exemption did not lead to any changes
to the time or cost burden estimates, or
to the number of responses, because the
previous assumption was that all
existing respondents have already
complied with the initial requirements
to prepare and submit the SSM plan,
thus the time and cost estimate was
already zero. In this supporting
statement, we have added a footnote in
Table 1 to explain that the SSM
exemption has been eliminated and that
the burden item can be removed out of
future ICR supporting statements.
We have accounted for the additional
labor and O&M costs to notify, perform,
and prepare and submit the reports for
the PM and HCN performance tests for
FCCUs. We have also accounted for the
additional labor for owners or operators
of facilities with FCCUs to update their
operating, maintenance, and monitoring
plan, to account for the new
requirements.
We have also accounted for the
additional labor and responses
associated with training personnel and
performing an engineering assessment
for evaluation of the new catalytic
PO 00000

reforming unit operational
requirements.
Furthermore, we have added a new
burden item for performing relative
accuracy test audits on units using
CEMs, based on industry comments
received from API (further discussed in
Section 3(c)). This contributed to an
increase in the total labor burden, cost
and number of annual responses.
In addition, the total number of
respondents was revised from 123 to
142, which contributed to the increase
in burden and cost.

ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) has submitted an
information collection request (ICR),
‘‘NESHAP for Off-Site Waste and
Recovery Operations (40 CFR part 63,
subpart DD) (Renewal)’’ (EPA ICR No.
1717.11, OMB Control No. 2060–0313),
to the Office of Management and Budget

additional 30 days for public comments.
A fuller description of the ICR is given
below, including its estimated burden
and cost to the public. An agency may
neither conduct nor sponsor, and a
person is not required to respond to, a
collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.
DATES: Additional comments may be
submitted on or before November 23,
2016.

Abstract: The NESHAP for Off-Site
Waste and Recovery Operations were
proposed on October 13, 1994, and
promulgated on July 1, 1996. The
affected entities are subject to the
General Provisions of the NESHAP (40
CFR part 63, subpart A), and any
changes, or additions to these
provisions are specified at 40 CFR part
63, subpart DD. 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. Reports are required
semiannually at a minimum.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: Waste
management and recovery facilities.

Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart
DD).
Estimated number of respondents: 45
(total).
Frequency of response: Initially,
occasionally and semiannually.
Total estimated burden: 40,600 hours
(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $5,060,000 (per
year), which includes $874,000 in either
annualized capital/startup or operation
& maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is a
decrease in the respondent labor hours,
labor costs, and the number of
responses. The decrease reflects an
update in the estimated respondent
universe. The previously approved ICR
(1717.09) estimated 236 sources. In
developing the 2015 amendment, we
estimate that only 45 sources are subject
to these standards.
There is an increase in the total O&M
cost compared to the previously
approved ICR. This cost increased
because the current ICR incorporates
additional requirements associated with
the 2015 amendment, including
additional O&M cost associated with
LDAR and PRD monitoring equipment.

EPA to establish a Docket that contains
certain information reported to EPA by
Federal facilities that manage hazardous
waste or from which a reportable
quantity of hazardous substances has
been released. As explained further
below, the Docket is used to identify
Federal facilities that should be
evaluated to determine if they pose a
threat to public health or welfare and
the environment and to provide a
