Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Steel Pickling, HCl Process Facilities and Hydrochloric Acid Regeneration Plants (40 CFR part 63, subpart CCC) applies to all facilities that pickle steel using hydrochloric acid (HCl) or regenerate hydrochloric acid and are either major sources or part of a facility that is a major source. This regulation does not apply to any pickling line that uses an acid other than hydrochloric acid or an acid solution containing either less than 6 percent hydrochloric acid or at a temperature less than 100 °F. 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 CCC. Form numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Steel pickling, hydrochloric acid process and regeneration facilities. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory. Estimated number of respondents: 100 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally and semiannually. Total estimated burden: 35,000 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $3,840,000 (per year), which includes $10,600 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the estimates: The decrease in labor hours from the mostrecently approved ICR is the result of revising the assumption for the number of labor hours required to draft a revised operation and maintenance plan. This ICR assumes it takes less time to revise an existing operation and maintenance plan than it does to implement an initial plan. Courtney Kerwin, Director, Regulatory Support Division.
