Abstract: The New Source
Performance Standards (NSPS) for
Stationary Spark Ignition Internal
Combustion Engines (40 CFR part 60,
subpart JJJJ) were promulgated on
January 18, 2008; and most-recently
amended on August 10, 2022. These
regulations apply to existing and new
manufacturers, owners, and operators of
stationary spark ignition (SI) internal
combustion engines (ICE) that
commenced construction, modification,
or reconstruction either on or after the
dates specified at 40 CFR 60.4230(a)(1)–
(6). New facilities include those that
commenced construction, modification
or reconstruction after the date of
proposal. This information is being
collected to assure compliance with 40
CFR part 60, subpart JJJJ.
In general, all NSPS 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 compliance,
and are required of all affected facilities
subject to the NSPS.
Form Numbers: 5900–596.
Respondents/affected entities:
Manufacturers, owners, and operators of
stationary spark ignition internal
combustion engines.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart JJJJ).
Estimated number of respondents:
20,088 (total).
Frequency of response: Initially and
annually.
Total estimated burden: 38,000 hours
(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $7,540,000 (per
year), which includes $2,920,000 in
annualized capital/startup and/or
operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is an
increase in the total estimated burden as
currently identified in the OMB

Inventory of Approved Burdens. This
increase is not due to any program
changes or changes in regulatory
requirements. The change in the burden
and cost estimates is due primarily to an
increase in the number of existing
sources subject to rule requirements.
This increase is based on the growth
rate from the prior ICR and assumes
continued growth in the manufacture
and use of SI ICE. This has led to an
increase in O&M costs, as well as for
recordkeeping and reporting costs.

Needs and Uses: Sections 206–209 of
the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended (the ‘‘Act’’), provide the
statutory framework for adjudicating
formal complaints against common
carriers. To resolve complaints between
providers regarding compliance with
data roaming obligations, Commission
Rule 20.12(e) adopts by reference the
procedures already in place for
resolving Section 208 formal complaints
against common carriers, except that the
remedy of damages, is not available for
complaints against commercial mobile
data service providers.
Section 208(a) authorizes complaints
by any person ‘‘complaining of anything
done or omitted to be done by any
common carrier’’ subject to the
provisions of the Act.
Section 208(a) states that if a carrier
does not satisfy a complaint or there
appears to be any reasonable ground for
investigating the complaint, the
Commission shall ‘‘investigate the
matters complained of in such manner
and by such means as it shall deem
proper.’’ Certain categories of
complaints are subject to a statutory
deadline for resolution. See, e.g., 47
U.S.C. 208(b)(1) (imposing a five-month
deadline for complaints challenging the
‘‘lawfulness of a charge, classification,
regulation, or practice’’); 47 U.S.C. 271
(d)(6) (imposing a 90-day deadline for
complaints alleging that a Bell
Operating Company has ceased to meet
conditions imposed in connection with
approval to provide in-region
interLATA services).
Formal complaint proceedings before
the Commission are similar to civil
litigation in federal district court. In
fact, under section 207 of the Act, a
party claiming to be damaged by a
common carrier may file its complaint
with the Commission or in any district
court of the United States, ‘‘but such
person shall not have the right to pursue
both such remedies’’ (47 U.S.C. 207).
The Commission has promulgated rules
(Formal Complaint Rules) to govern its
formal complaint proceedings that are
similar in many respects to the Federal
Rules of Civil Procedure. See 47 CFR
1.720–1.736. These rules require the
submission of information from the
parties necessary to create a record on
which the Commission can decide
complex legal and factual issues. As
described in section 1.720 of the rules,
the Commission resolves formal
complaint proceedings on a written
record consisting of a complaint, answer
or response, and joint statement of
stipulated facts, disputed facts and key
legal issues, along with all associated
affidavits, exhibits and other
attachments.

This collection of information
includes the process for electronically
submitting a formal complaint against a
common carrier. The Commission uses
this information to determine the
sufficiency of complaints and to resolve
the merits of disputes between the
parties. The Commission bases its
orders in formal complaint proceedings
upon evidence and argument produced
by the parties in accordance with the
Formal Complaint Rules. If the
information were not collected, the
Commission would not be able to
resolve common carrier-related
complaint proceedings, as required by
section 208 of the Act.
In addition, the Commission has
adopted most of this formal complaint
process to govern data roaming
complaints. Specifically, the
Commission has extended, as
applicable, the procedural rules in the
Commission’s Part I, Subpart E rules, 47
CFR 1.716–1.718, 1.720, 1.721, and
1.723–1.735, to disputes arising out of
the data roaming rule contained in 47
CFR 20.12(e). Therefore, in addition to
being necessary to resolve common
carrier-related complaint proceedings,
this collection of information is also
necessary to resolve data roamingrelated complaint proceedings.
