Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Chemical Preparations Industry (40 CFR 63, subpart BBBBBBB) were proposed on August 5, 2009, and promulgated on December 30, 2009. These regulations apply to both existing and new chemical preparation facilities that conduct the mixing, milling, blending or extruding of industrial chemicals and that are area sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). Area sources are classified as sources that emit less than 10 tons per year of a single HAP or less than 25 tons per year of any combination of HAPs. New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart BBBBBBB. 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 VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:40 May 22, 2019 Jkt 247001 inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NESHAP. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Existing and new chemical preparation facilities that conduct the mixing, milling, blending or extruding of industrial chemicals and that are area sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart BBBBBBB). Estimated number of respondents: 26 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, annually and semiannually. Total estimated burden: 2,210 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $252,000 (per year), which includes $390 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. 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, negative or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CAA affords the EPA a 45-day period to review and object to, as appropriate, operating permits proposed by state permitting authorities under title V of the CAA.

Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Miscellaneous Organic Chemical Manufacturing (40 CFR part 63, subpart FFFF) were proposed on April 4, 2002, and promulgated on July 14, 2006. These regulations apply to both existing facilities and new facilities that manufacture a miscellaneous organic chemical and that are located at, or are part of, major sources of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions. 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 63, subpart FFFF. 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 PO 00000 Frm 00036 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 23789 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 NESHAP. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Miscellaneous organic chemical manufacturing facilities. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart FFFF). Estimated number of respondents: 202 (total). Frequency of response: Initially and semiannually. Total estimated burden: 327,000 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $41,600,000 (per year), which includes $4,310,000 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the estimates: There is an adjustment decrease in the total estimated burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens; this decrease is not due to any program changes. The decrease in burden is due to more accurate estimates of existing sources based on information gathered by EPA and confirmed by industry. The decrease in the number of respondents also results in a decrease in responses and operation and maintenance costs. Courtney Kerwin, Director, Regulatory Support Division.
