Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 19 / Friday, January 28, 2022 / Notices
Abstract: Owners and operators of
ferromanganese and silicomanganese
production facilities are required to
comply with reporting and record
keeping requirements for the General
Provisions (40 CFR part 63, subpart A),
as well as for the applicable specific
standards in 40 CFR part 63 Subpart
XXX. This includes submitting initial
notifications, performance tests and
periodic reports and results, and
maintaining 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 reports are used by
EPA to determine compliance with
these standards.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities:
Ferroalloy production facilities that
manufacture ferromanganese and
silicomanganese.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart
XXX).
Estimated number of respondents: 2
(total).
Frequency of response: Quarterly,
semiannually, and annually.
Total estimated burden: 1,610 hours
(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $609,000 (per
year), which includes $424,000 for
annualized capital/startup and/or
operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is a
change in burden from the mostrecently approved ICR (ICR Number
1831.07) as currently identified in the
OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens.
This is due to several considerations.
The regulations are not anticipated to
change over the next three years. The
growth rate for this industry is either
very low or non-existent, so there is no
change in the number of respondents.
The 2015 Risk and Technology Review
final rule, issued June 30, 2015 (80 FR
37366), and the 2017 reconsideration,
issued January 18, 2017 (82 FR 5408),
revised the rule significantly, resulting
in changes in the labor burden, capital/
startup costs, and operation and
maintenance (O&M) costs. However,
these changes were not included in the
previously-approved ICR (ICR Number
1831.07: Issued March 8, 2019). Instead,
the burden for the rule revision was
included in ICR Number 2448.02, issued
March 16, 2015, which showed only the
increase in burden due to the rule
changes. This ICR (1831.08) combines
and incorporates the ‘burden’ from the
2015 and 2017 rule revisions, as shown
in ICR Number 2448.02, with the
‘burden’ shown in the previously-

Jkt 256001
approved ICR (1831.07). This ICR also
reorganizes and clarifies the ‘burden’
associated with each rule requirement.
There is a decrease in the total
estimated burden for capital/startup
costs from that shown in ICR Number
2448.02. This decrease is not due to any
program changes. The change in the
burden and cost estimates occurred
because the revised standard has been
in effect for more than three years and
the requirements are different during
initial compliance. ICR Number 2448.02
reflected those burdens and costs
associated with the initial activities for
the two subject facilities. This includes
purchasing monitoring equipment,
conducting performance test(s) and
establishing recordkeeping systems.
This ICR reflects the on-going burden
and costs for existing facilities.
There is an increase in the total
estimated burden from that shown in
ICR Number 2448.02. This increase is
not due to any program changes. This
increase is due to an omission in the
burden calculations for O&M costs in
ICR Number 2448.02, which failed to
include costs for periodic testing (every
five years) for certain equipment and
processes.
The 2020 amendment to the
regulation (85 FR 73902) added
electronic notification requirements, but
this did not add to the burden. There is
a slight increase in labor costs, which is
due wholly to the use of updated labor
rates. This ICR uses labor rates from the
most-recent Bureau of Labor Statistics
report (March 2021) to calculate
respondent burden costs.

The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) has submitted an
information collection request (ICR),
NESHAP for Pesticide Active Ingredient
Production (EPA ICR Number 1807.10,
OMB Control Number 2060–0370), to
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and approval in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act. This is a proposed
extension of the ICR, which is currentlyapproved through March 31, 2022.
Public comments were previously
requested, via the Federal Register, on
April 13, 2021 during a 60-day comment
period. This notice allows for an
additional 30 days for public comments.
A fuller description of the ICR is given
below, including its estimated burden
and cost to the public. An agency may
neither conduct nor sponsor, and a
person is not required to respond to, a
collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.
