Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Sewage Sludge Treatment Plants (40 CFR part 60, subpart O) were proposed on August 17, 1971, promulgated on December 23, 1971, and amended on: October 6, 1975; November 10, 1977; October 6, 1988; October 17, 2000; and February 27, 2014. These regulations apply to each incinerator which either combusts wastes that contain more than 10 percent sewage sludge (dry basis) produced by municipal sewage treatment plants or each incinerator which charges more than 1,000 kg (2,205 lb) per day municipal sewage sludge (dry basis). New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after the date of proposal. These standards set emission limitation for particulate matter (PM). This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 60, subpart O. In general, all NSPS standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/ VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:18 Jan 07, 2020 Jkt 250001 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: Owners or operators of sewage sludge treatment plants. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart O). Estimated number of respondents: 86 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually. Total estimated burden: 9,690 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $4,170,000 (per year), which includes $3,050,000 in either annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the labor hours in this ICR compared to the previous ICR. This is due to two considerations. First, the regulations have not changed over the past three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three years. Secondly, the growth rate for the industry is very low, negative or nonexistent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden. Courtney Kerwin, Director, Regulatory Support Division.

    Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Sewage 
Sludge Treatment Plants (40 CFR part 60, subpart O) were proposed on 
August 17, 1971, promulgated on December 23, 1971, and amended on: 
October 6, 1975; November 10, 1977; October 6, 1988; October 17, 2000; 
and February 27, 2014. These regulations apply to each incinerator 
which either combusts wastes that contain more than 10 percent sewage 
sludge (dry basis) produced by municipal sewage treatment plants or 
each incinerator which charges more than 1,000 kg (2,205 lb) per day 
municipal sewage sludge (dry basis). New facilities include those that 
commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after the date 
of proposal. These standards set emission limitation for particulate 
matter (PM). This information is being collected to assure compliance 
with 40 CFR part 60, subpart O.
    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: Owners or operators of sewage sludge 
treatment plants.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart O).
    Estimated number of respondents: 86 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 9,690 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $4,170,000 (per year), which includes 
$3,050,000 in either annualized capital/startup and/or operation & 
maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the labor hours in 
this ICR compared to the previous ICR. This is due to two 
considerations. First, the regulations have not changed over the past 
three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three 
years. Secondly, the growth rate for the industry is very low, negative 
or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall 
burden.
