Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 61 / Thursday, March 28, 2024 / Notices
This information is being collected to
assure compliance with 40 CFR part 60,
subpart TT.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: Metal
coil surface coating facilities.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart TT).
Estimated number of respondents:
158 (total).
Frequency of response: Initially,
quarterly, occasionally, semiannually,
and annually.
Total estimated burden: 16,200 hours
(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR
1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $2,200,000 (per
year), which includes $151,000 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: (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 very low or nonexistent, so there is no significant
change in the overall burden. Although
there are no changes in the regulatory
requirements and there is no significant
industry growth, there is a decrease in
the operation and maintenance (O&M)
costs due to a calculation correction to
the number of respondents using
temperature monitoring systems.

Director, Regulatory Support Division.
