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.

Director, Regulatory Support Division.
