Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 211 / Wednesday, October 31, 2018 / Notices sections 303, 311/312 or 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA). Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory if a respondent decides to make a trace secret claim for the chemical identity for any of the chemicals in any of the reports the respondent is required to submit under EPCRA sections 303, 311/312 or 313. Estimated number of respondents: 272 trade secret claims. Frequency of response: Annual, with reports submitted under Sections 312 and 313. Total estimated burden: 2,584 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). Total estimated cost: $151,047 (per year). There are no capital or operation and maintenance costs associated with this ICR. Changes in the estimates: This ICR renewal estimates a total respondent burden of 2,584 hours, which is reduced from the previous ICR. The previous approved burden was 3,154 hours. The burden decreased because the actual number of claims submitted is lower than what EPA estimated in the previous ICR. Courtney Kerwin, Director, Regulatory Support Division.

Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Inorganic Arsenic Emissions from Glass Manufacturing Plants (40 CFR part 61, subpart N) apply to each existing and new glass melting furnace that uses commercial arsenic as a raw material located at a glass manufacturing plant. These standards PO 00000 Frm 00051 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 54751 do not apply to pot furnaces; in addition, the standards do not consider re-bricking as construction or modification for the purposes of 40 CFR Section 61.05(a). New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They 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. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance with 40 CFR part 61, subpart N. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Glass manufacturing plants. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 61, subpart N). Estimated number of respondents: 16 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally and semiannually. Total estimated burden: 3,100 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $382,000 (per year), which includes $56,000 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in labor hours or costs 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 very low or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden.

Subpart Na is applicable to any top-blown BOPF, and hot metal transfer station or skimming stations used with bottom-blown or top-blown BOPF’s for which construction, reconstruction, or modification commenced after January 20, 1983.

    Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Primary 
Emissions from Basic Oxygen Process Furnaces (Subpart N) apply to each 
basic oxygen process furnace (BOPF) in an iron and steel plant that 
commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after the date 
of proposal. These standards were merged with Standards of Performance 
for Secondary Emissions from Basic Oxygen Process Steelmaking 
Facilities (Subpart Na). Subpart Na is applicable to any top-blown 
BOPF, and hot metal transfer station or skimming stations used with 
bottom-blown or top-blown BOPF's for which construction, 
reconstruction, or modification commenced after January 20, 1983. In 
general, all NSPS standards require initial notifications, performance 
tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected 
facilities. They 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. These notifications, reports, and 
records are essential in determining compliance with 40 CFR part 60, 
subparts N and Na.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Owners and operators of basic oxygen 
process furnaces at iron and steel plants.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart N and Na).
    Estimated number of respondents: 18 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 6,280 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $690,000 (per year), which includes $29,700 
in annualized capital and/or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: The increase in burden from the most 
recently approved ICR is due to an adjustment. Hours were added to 
approximate the time spent by each source each year to familiarize with 
the rule requirements, and the total hours were rounded to three 
significant digits, which resulted in a small increase in labor hours 
since the last renewal.
