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, subpart BB. Form numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Kraft pulp mills. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart BB). Estimated number of respondents: 97 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally and semiannually. Total estimated burden: 13,900 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $5,020,000 (per year), which includes $3,510,000 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the estimates: There is an adjustment decrease in the estimated burden and cost as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. The decrease is not due to any program changes. The change in burden is due to an industry decline since the last ICR renewal, resulting in a decrease in the number of respondent subject to the standard.

Abstract: The NESHAP for Ferroalloys Production: Ferromanganese and Silicomanganese applies to new and existing ferroalloy production facilities that manufacture ferromanganese and silicomanganese, and that are either major sources of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions or are co-located at major sources of HAPs. The following affected facilities at ferroalloy production plants are subject to this NESHAP rule: Submerged arc furnaces; metal oxygen refining processes; crushing and screening operations; and fugitive dust sources. 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 63, subpart XXX. Form numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Ferroalloy production facilities. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart XXX). VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:51 Dec 10, 2018 Jkt 247001 Estimated number of respondents: 2 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, quarterly, semiannually, and annually. Total estimated burden: 1,170 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $133,000 (per year); there are no annualized capital/ startup and operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the estimates: There is an increase in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently-approved by OMB. The adjustment increase in burden is due to more accurate estimates of existing and anticipated new sources, as identified during the development of the final rule amendments.
