Download as PDF amozie on DSK9F9SC42PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 74 / Wednesday, April 17, 2019 / Notices Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Secondary Lead Smelters (40 CFR part 60, subpart L) apply to existing facilities and new secondary lead smelting facilities: Any pot furnace of more than 250 kg (550 lb) charging capacity, blast (cupola) furnaces, and reverberatory furnaces. The affected facilities include any facility producing lead from a lead bearing scrap material by smelting to the metallic form. Blast furnace means any furnace used to recover metal from slag. Reverberatory furnaces include furnaces of various types, e.g., stationary, rotating, rocking and tilting. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 60, subpart L. 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, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NSPS. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Secondary lead smelting facilities. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart L). Estimated number of respondents: 12 (total). Frequency of response: Initially. Total estimated burden: 32 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $3,620 (per year), which includes $0 annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: The adjustment decrease in burden from the most recently-approved ICR is due to a decrease in the number of sources. There is a decrease in the number of estimated sources from 14 to 12 due to consolidation within the sector. The reduced number of estimated sources also led to a decrease in the number of responses.

Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Synthetic Fiber Production Facilities (40 CFR part 60, subpart HHH) were proposed on November 23, 1982, promulgated on April 5, 1984, and amended on October 17, 2000. These regulations apply to both existing and new synthetic fiber production plants with a solvent-spun, synthetic fiber process that produce more than 500 megagrams (Mgs) of fiber per year that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. The provisions of this subpart do not apply to any facility that uses the reaction spinning process to produce spandex fiber, or the viscose process to produce rayon fiber, or to facilities that commence modification, but not reconstruction, after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 60, subpart HHH. 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, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NSPS. Form Numbers: None.

This situation 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, negative or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden.

    Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Synthetic 
Fiber Production Facilities (40 CFR part 60, subpart HHH) were proposed 
on November 23, 1982, promulgated on April 5, 1984, and amended on 
October 17, 2000. These regulations apply to both existing and new 
synthetic fiber production plants with a solvent-spun, synthetic fiber 
process that produce more than 500 megagrams (Mgs) of fiber per year 
that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of 
proposal. The provisions of this subpart do not apply to any facility 
that uses the reaction spinning process to produce spandex fiber, or 
the viscose process to produce rayon fiber, or to facilities that 
commence modification, but not reconstruction, after the date of 
proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 
40 CFR part 60, subpart HHH.
    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, and are required of 
all affected facilities subject to NSPS.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Synthetic fiber production plants 
with a solvent-spun, synthetic fiber process that produce more than 500 
megagrams (Mgs) of fiber per year.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart HHH).
    Estimated number of respondents: 22 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, semiannually, and quarterly.

[[Page 16014]]

    Total estimated burden: 1,880 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $380,000 (per year), which includes $165,000 
in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in burden for this ICR 
compared to the previous ICR. This situation 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, negative 
or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall 
burden.
