    Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Inorganic Arsenic Emissions from Primary Copper 
Smelters (40 CFR part 61, subpart O) were proposed on July 20, 1983, 
and promulgated on August 4, 1986. These regulations apply to existing 
facilities and new facilities where the total arsenic charging rate for 
the copper converter department averaged over a 1-year period is 
greater than 75 kg/hr (165 lb/hr), as determined under 40 CFR 
61.174(f). 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 
61, subpart O.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Primary copper smelters.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 61, 
subpart O).
    Estimated number of respondents: 3 (total).
    Frequency of response: Quarterly, annual.
    Total estimated burden: 6,260 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $753,000 (per year), which includes $1,500 in 
annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase in burden from the 
most-recently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory 
of Approved Burdens. The increase is due to revisions to the labor 
burden associated with certain tasks including performing monthly 
Method 108A sample collection, calculations, and the time to record 
results. This ICR adjusts the burden for these activities based on 
comments received from industry and incorporates additional burden 
hours. The comments reflected additional time to complete activities 
and resulted in an increase in labor burden.
