Abstract: The Emission Guidelines for Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration (CISWI) units (40 CFR part 60, subpart DDDD) apply to any air quality program in either a state or a United States protectorate with one or more existing CISWI units that commenced construction either on or before April 29, 2010. In general, all emission guidelines 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 DDDD. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Owners and operators of existing CISWI units. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart DDDD). Estimated number of respondents: 78 (total). Frequency of response: Semiannual, annual. Total estimated burden: 9,890 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $12,200,000 (per year), which includes $11,000,000 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease in burden from the mostrecently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This is due to several considerations. The growth rate for this industry is very low or nonexistent, so there is no change in the number of respondents. The regulations have changed over the past three years; however, the amendments did not result in any changes in burden. The labor calculations for incinerators were corrected to remove one instance in the previous ICR, where labor costs for continuous parameter monitoring were double-counted. The labor calculations VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:03 Jan 27, 2022 Jkt 256001 for incinerators were also corrected to revise the number of respondents submitting a status report, corrective action summary, and semiannual report to reflect reports submitted for 10 percent of the total number of CISWI units. The overall result is a decrease in burden hours. The costs for annual performance testing were updated from 2008 to 2020 using the CEPCI Index, resulting in an increase in O&M costs. The monitoring costs were updated from 2008 values to 2020 values using the CEPCI Index and Bureau of Labor Statistics data, resulting in an increase in monitoring costs.

facilities to which this rule is applicable must choose one of the

to below the compliance level. Specifically, the rule requirements for 
slabstock foam producers include an initial notification, notification 
of compliance status, semiannual reports and annual compliance 
certifications. The rule requirements for molded and rebond foam 
producers include a notification of compliance status report and an 
annual compliance certification. These notifications, reports, and

    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in burden from the
