Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for the Manufacture of Amino/Phenolic Resins (40 CFR part 63, subpart OOO) were proposed on December 14, 1998; promulgated on January 20, 2000; and amended on: April 20, 2006; October 8, 2014; October 15, 2018; and November 19, 2020. These regulations apply to existing facilities and new facilities that manufacture amino/phenolic resins with HAP emissions points that include: (1) reactor batch process vents; (2) nonreactor batch process vents; (3) continuous process vents; (4) equipment leaks; (5) wastewater; (6) storage vessels; and (7) heat exchangers. New facilities include those that either commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after the date of the proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart OOO. In general, all NESHAP standards 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 SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00039 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NESHAP. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Amino/phenolic resins manufacturing facilities. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart OOO). Estimated number of respondents: 19 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, quarterly, semiannually, and annually. Total estimated burden: 23,300 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). Total estimated cost: $5,080,000 (per year), which includes $2,280,000 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in burden from the most recently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This is due to two considerations: (1) the regulations have not changed over the past three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three years; and (2) the growth rate for this industry is either very low or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden. Since there are no 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) activities. This ICR also updates the capital/startup and O&M costs from 2014 to 2020, using the annual Chemical Engineering Plant Cost Index (CEPCI). Courtney Kerwin, Director, Regulatory Support Division.

Abstract: EPA issued New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) and Emission Guidelines (EG) and Compliance Times for Existing Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) Landfills under the regulations published at 40 CFR part 60, subparts WWW and Cc, promulgated on March 12, 1996, revised on June 16, 1998, and February 24, 1999. The Federal plan requirements implementing the regulations were published at 40 CFR part 62, subpart GGG, promulgated on November 8, 1999. On August 29, 2016, EPA finalized 40 CFR part 60, subpart XXX, based on review of 40 CFR part 60, subpart WWW, which applies to MSW landfills that are either new, or reconstructed, or modified after July 17, 2014 (effective October 28, 2016). Concurrently, EPA finalized revised Emissions Guidelines under 40 CFR part 60, subpart Cf, which apply to existing landfills accepting waste after November 8, 1987, for which construction was commenced either on or before July 17, 2014. The revised guidelines are implemented under state or Federal plans. EPA finalized a Federal plan implementing 40 CFR part 60, subpart Cf under 40 CFR part 62, subpart OOO on May 21, 2021. This ICR includes burden for MSW landfills that are subject to the requirements of Subpart Cf, which are implemented under State plans and a ‘Federal’ plan (40 CFR part 62, subpart OOO). All MSW landfills that are subject to the original NSPS (40 CFR part 60, subpart WWW), the Federal plan (40 CFR part 62, subpart GGG), or a state plan implementing the original emission guidelines (40 CFR part 60, subpart Cc) were required to comply with their current requirements unless and until they are covered by a more stringent State or Federal plan implementing the emission guidelines in subpart Cf. Since EPA has finalized the Federal plan at 40 CFR part 62, subpart OOO, all respondents previously subject to Subpart WWW, a state plan implementing subpart Cc, or GGG, are now either subject to either a state plan under implementing 40 CFR part 60, PO 00000 Frm 00040 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 5001 subpart Cf, or must comply with the Federal plan under 40 CFR part 62, subpart OOO, or if they have modified since July 17, 2014, they must now comply with the NSPS at 40 CFR part 60, subpart XXX. Subpart Cf reduces the NMOC emission rate threshold from the previous level of 50 megagrams per year (Mg/yr) to 34 Mg/yr for landfills that are not closed as of August 29, 2016. The final rule retained the design capacity cutoff of 2.5 million Mg and 2.5 million cubic meters in the current emission guidelines. Closed landfills retain the same NMOC threshold of 50 Mg/yr, as was the case under Subpart WWW. Closed landfills are also exempted from the one-time reporting requirements, provided the landfill fulfilled requirements under the NSPS (40 CFR part 60, subpart WWW), the Federal plan (40 CFR part 62, subpart GGG), or a state plan implementing 40 CFR part 60 Subpart Cc. Respondents/affected entities: Existing MSW landfills that have accepted waste since November 8, 1987, and commenced either construction, reconstruction, or modification on or before July 17, 2014. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart Cf and 40 CFR part 62, subpart OOO). Estimated number of respondents: 1,887 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, annually. Total estimated burden: 605,260 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $44,154,000 (per year), which includes $2,710,000 in annualized capital and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: The decrease in burden from the currently approved ICR is due to an adjustment. The decrease in the number of respondents reflects the lower expected number of landfills controlling based on projected emissions, as well as the number of landfills subject based on waste disposal quantities which increase over time at active landfills. The number of respondents also assumes that landfills will be controlled under the more stringent 34 Mg/yr requirements. The estimates subtract out landfills expected to modify and become subject to the MSW landfill 2016 NSPS Subpart XXX instead (OMB Control Number 2060–0697). This ICR therefore reflects a decrease in the total number of respondents subject to the rule, but a similar number of controlling landfills subject to monitoring and testing requirements.

Abstract: Pursuant to section 4(g) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), EPA determined that several soil and nonsoil fumigants are eligible for continuing registration only if specific risk mitigation measures, are adopted and adequately implemented. This ICR documents the PRA activities that users, registrants, and participating states must conduct to implement fumigant risk mitigation measures for the chemicals identified in this document. The PRA burden activities include: Registrant activities to develop and implement training for fumigators in charge of fumigations, develop and disseminate safety information for handlers, develop and implement community outreach and education programs, and develop and implement first responder training; and labeling activities for fumigant products which includes user posting requirements concerning fumigant applications around the use site, providing notice of soil fumigant applications to applicable states, PO 00000 Frm 00041 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 preparing a Fumigant Management Plan (FMP) and Post-Application Summary (PAS) as needed, participating in an EPA-approved fumigant training program, and disseminating fumigant safe handling information to handlers. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this ICR are soil and non-soil fumigant users, specifically certified applicators and agriculture pesticide handlers (North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) 111000-Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Hunting); soil and non-soil fumigant registrants (NAICS 325300Pesticide, Fertilizer, and Other Agricultural Chemical Manufacturing); and state and tribal lead agencies (NAICS 999200-State Government). Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (FIFRA sections 3(c)(2)(B) and 3(c)(5)). Estimated number of respondents: 118,436 (total). Frequency of response: On occasion. Total estimated burden: 841,738 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). Total estimated cost: $35,566,696 (per year), which includes $1,060,214 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 309,158 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This decrease is due to the update in the estimate of number of applicators certified and handlers for soil and nonsoil fumigations. There is also a decrease in burden costs for both types of fumigation due to updating the wages to the current 2021 data provided by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. This is an adjustment.

    Abstract: EPA issued New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) and 
Emission Guidelines (EG) and Compliance Times for Existing Municipal 
Solid Waste (MSW) Landfills under the regulations published at 40 CFR 
part 60, subparts WWW and Cc, promulgated on March 12, 1996, revised on 
June 16, 1998, and February 24, 1999. The Federal plan requirements 
implementing the regulations were published at 40 CFR part 62, subpart 
GGG, promulgated on November 8, 1999. On August 29, 2016, EPA finalized 
40 CFR part 60, subpart XXX, based on review of 40 CFR part 60, subpart 
WWW, which applies to MSW landfills that are either new, or 
reconstructed, or modified after July 17, 2014 (effective October 28, 
2016). Concurrently, EPA finalized revised Emissions Guidelines under 
40 CFR part 60, subpart Cf, which apply to existing landfills accepting 
waste after November 8, 1987, for which construction was commenced 
either on or before July 17, 2014. The revised guidelines are 
implemented under state or Federal plans. EPA finalized a Federal plan 
implementing 40 CFR part 60, subpart Cf under 40 CFR part 62, subpart 
OOO on May 21, 2021. This ICR includes burden for MSW landfills that 
are subject to the requirements of Subpart Cf, which are implemented 
under State plans and a `Federal' plan (40 CFR part 62, subpart OOO). 
All MSW landfills that are subject to the original NSPS (40 CFR part 
60, subpart WWW), the Federal plan (40 CFR part 62, subpart GGG), or a 
state plan implementing the original emission guidelines (40 CFR part 
60, subpart Cc) were required to comply with their current requirements 
unless and until they are covered by a more stringent State or Federal 
plan implementing the emission guidelines in subpart Cf. Since EPA has 
finalized the Federal plan at 40 CFR part 62, subpart OOO, all 
respondents previously subject to Subpart WWW, a state plan 
implementing subpart Cc, or GGG, are now either subject to either a 
state plan under implementing 40 CFR part 60, subpart Cf, or must 
comply with the Federal plan under 40 CFR part 62, subpart OOO, or if 
they have modified since July 17, 2014, they must now comply with the 
NSPS at 40 CFR part 60, subpart XXX. Subpart Cf reduces the NMOC 
emission rate threshold from the previous level of 50 megagrams per 
year (Mg/yr) to 34 Mg/yr for landfills that are not closed as of August 
29, 2016. The final rule retained the design capacity cutoff of 2.5 
million Mg and 2.5 million cubic meters in the current emission 
guidelines. Closed landfills retain the same NMOC threshold of 50 Mg/
yr, as was the case under Subpart WWW. Closed landfills are also 
exempted from the one-time reporting requirements, provided the 
landfill fulfilled requirements under the NSPS (40 CFR part 60, subpart 
WWW), the Federal plan (40 CFR part 62, subpart GGG), or a state plan 
implementing 40 CFR part 60 Subpart Cc.
    Respondents/affected entities: Existing MSW landfills that have 
accepted waste since November 8, 1987, and commenced either 
construction, reconstruction, or modification on or before July 17, 
2014.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart Cf and 40 CFR part 62, subpart OOO).
    Estimated number of respondents: 1,887 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, annually.
    Total estimated burden: 605,260 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $44,154,000 (per year), which includes 
$2,710,000 in annualized capital and/or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: The decrease in burden from the currently 
approved ICR is due to an adjustment. The decrease in the number of 
respondents reflects the lower expected number of landfills controlling 
based on projected emissions, as well as the number of landfills

will be controlled under the more stringent 34 Mg/yr requirements. The 
estimates subtract out landfills expected to modify and become subject 
to the MSW landfill 2016 NSPS Subpart XXX instead (OMB Control Number 
2060-0697). This ICR therefore reflects a decrease in the total number 
of respondents subject to the rule, but a similar number of controlling 
landfills subject to monitoring and testing requirements. There is a 
slight increase in burden for states/local agencies implementing state/
local

agency plans due to an increase in the number of states/local agencies 
enforcing State Plans. There is a decrease in the capital costs due to 
a decrease in the number of respondents expected to install controls 
and therefore conduct initial performance tests and install monitoring 
equipment.
