Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP), for Nine Metal Fabrication and Finishing Area Sources (40 CFR part 63, subpart XXXXXX) were proposed on April 3, 2008, and promulgated on July 23, 2008. These regulations apply to owners or operators of any existing or new metal fabrication and finishing facility that is an area source of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions and either uses or has the potential to emit metal fabrication or finishing metal HAP (MFHAP), defined to be the compounds of cadmium, chromium, lead, manganese, and nickel, or any of these metals in the elemental form with the exception of lead. The affected sources consist of several types of metal fabrication and finishing processes, including any abrasive blasting, metalworking (which includes machining, and dry grinding and dry polishing with machines), spray painting, and welding operations. New facilities include those that either commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart XXXXXX. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Owners or operators of existing metal fabrication and finishing area sources. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart XXXXXX). Estimated number of respondents: 5,800 (total). Frequency of response: Semiannually, annually. PO 00000 Frm 00022 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Total estimated burden: 39,000 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $4,620,000 (per year), which includes $0 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in burden from the mostrecently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This is due to two considerations. First, the regulations have not changed significantly over the past three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three years. Second, the growth rate for this industry is very low or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden. Since there are no significant changes in the regulatory requirements and there is no significant industry growth, there are also no changes in the capital/startup or operation and maintenance (O&M) costs.
