NSPS Subpart Db Supplementary Information

Affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are

those which are subject to NSPS Subpart Db, or each steam generating

unit that commences construction, modification or reconstruction after

June 19, 1984, and that has a heat input capacity from fuels combusted

in the steam generating unit of greater than 29 MW (100 million BTU/

hour).

Title: NSPS Subpart Db: Standards of Performance for Industrial-

Commercial-Institutional Steam Generating Units, OMB number 2060-0072,

expires April 30, 1996.

Abstract: Owners and operators of the affected facilities described

must make the following one-time-only reports: notification of the date

of construction or reconstruction; notification of the anticipated and

actual dates of startup;

[[Page 63036]]

notification of any physical or operational change to an existing

facility which may increase the regulated pollutant emission rate;

notification of demonstration of the continuous monitoring system

(CMS); notification of the date of the initial performance test; and

the results of the initial performance test. Owners or operators 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 required, in

general, of all sources subject to NSPS.

An owner or operator subject to the NOx standard who seeks to

demonstrate compliance with these standards through the monitoring of

steam generating unit operating conditions under the provisions of

Sec. 60.48b(g)(2) shall submit to the Administrator for approval a plan

that identifies the operating conditions to be monitored under

Sec. 60.48b(g)(2) and the records to be maintained under

Sec. 60.49b(j). The owner or operator of an affected facility shall

record and maintain records of the amounts of each fuel combusted

during each day, and calculate the annual capacity factor individually

for coal, distillate oil, residual oil, natural gas, wood, and

municipal-type solid waste for each calendar quarter. For affected

facilities that combust residual oil, the owner or operator shall

maintain records of the nitrogen content of the residual oil combusted

in the affected facility and calculate the average fuel nitrogen

content on a per calendar quarter.

For facilities subject to the opacity standard of the regulation,

the owner or operator shall maintain records of opacity. The owner or

operator subject to the NOx standards of the regulation shall

maintain records for each steam generating unit operating day. The

owner or operator of selected facilities are required to submit excess

emission reports for any calendar quarter during which there are excess

emissions from the affected facility. In periods where there are no

excess emission reports, a semiannual report must be submitted stating

that no excess emissions occurred during the semiannual period. The

owner or operator of any affected facility subject to the continuous

monitoring requirements for nitrogen oxides under Sec. 60.48(b) shall

submit a quarterly report containing information recorded in accordance

with Sec. 60.49b(i). The owner or operator of any affected facility

subject to the sulfur dioxide standards under Sec. 60.42b shall submit

written reports to the Administrator for every calendar quarter in

accordance with Sec. 60.49b(j). For each affected facility subject to

the compliance and performance testing requirements of Sec. 60.45b,

certain information must be reported to the Administrator. Quarterly

reporting of emission data is appropriate for Subpart Db sources due to

their large emissions of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and

particulates.

For each affected facility subject to the sulfur dioxide standards

under Sec. 60.42b for which the minimum amount of data required under

Sec. 60.47b(f) were not obtained during a calendar quarter, certain

information must be reported to the Administrator. If a percent removal

efficiency by fuel pretreatment is used to determine the overall

percent reduction under Sec. 60.45b, the owner or operator of the

affected facility shall submit a signed statement with the quarterly

report containing certain information.

The owner or operator of an affected facility described in

Sec. 60.44b(j) or Sec. 60.44b(k) shall submit to the Administrator

selected information regarding fuel nitrogen content and emission tests

on a quarterly basis. The owner or operator of an affected facility who

elects to demonstrate that the affected facility combusts only very low

sulfur oil under Sec. 60.42b(j)(2) shall obtain and maintain at the

affected facility fuel receipts from the fuel supplier which certify

that the oil meets the definition of distillate oil as defined in

Sec. 60.41b.

All reports are sent to the delegated State or local authority. In

the event that there is no such delegated authority, the reports are

sent directly to the EPA Regional Office. Notifications are used to

inform the Agency or delegated authority when a source becomes subject

to the standard. The reviewing authority may then inspect the source to

check if the standard is being met. Performance test reports are needed

as these are the Agency's record of a source's initial capability to

comply with the emission standard. Both the quarterly reports and

semiannual reports (where appropriate) are used for problem

identification, as a check on source operation and maintenance, and for

compliance determinations.

An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required

to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a

currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's

regulations are listed in 40 CFR Part 9.

The EPA would like to solicit comments to:

(1) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is

necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,

including whether the information will have practical utility;

(ii) evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden

of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of

the methodology and assumptions used;

(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information

to be collected; and

(iv) minimize the burden of the collection of information on those

who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated

electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or

other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic

submission of responses.

Burden Statement: The Agency computed the burden for each of the

recordkeeping and reporting requirements applicable to the industry for

the currently approved 1992 Information Collection Request (ICR). Where

appropriate, the Agency identified specific tasks and made assumptions,

while being consistent with the concept of burden under the Paper

Reduction Act.

This estimate is based on the assumption that there would be 58 new

affected facilities each year and that there were approximately 464

sources in existence for the three years covered by the ICR. The annual

burden of reporting and recordkeeping requirements for facilities

subject to Subpart Db are summarized by the following information. The

reporting requirements are as follows: Read Instructions (1 person-

hour), Initial performance test (330 person-hours), 24-hour test for

gas units (250 person-hours). It is assumed that 20% of tests are

repeated due to failure. The burden for demonstration of continuous

emission monitoring system (CEMS) is: 150 person-hours for SO2,

100 person-hours for PM, 350 person-hours for NOX. Repeat

demonstration of CEMS is: 150 person-hours for SO2, 100 person-

hours for PM, 350 person-hours for NOX. Annual compliance tests

for NOX are estimated at 250 person-hours. Appendix F annual

accuracy test estimates are: 146 person-hours for SO2, and 146

person-hours for NOX. Appendix F quarterly audit estimates for

SO2 are: 125 person-hours for in situ, 36 person-hours for

extractive, and for Appendix F quarterly audit, NOX: for in situ

(125 person-hours), for extractive (36 person-hours) (Assume that 25%

of units have an in situ CEMS). Estimates for report writing are:

Notification of construction/reconstruction (2 person-

[[Page 63037]]

hours), Notification of anticipated startup (2 person-hours),

Notification of actual startup (2 person-hours), Monitoring plan (4

person-hours), Notification of initial performance test: for SO2

(2 person-hours), for PM (2 person-hours), for NOX (2 person-

hours), Report of initial performance test: for SO2 (16 person-

hours), for NOX (16 person-hours), Notification of CMS

demonstration: for SO2 (2 person-hours), for PM (2 person-hours),

for NOX (2 person-hours), Quarterly reports for SO2 (16

person-hours), Quarterly reports for PM: excess (16 person-hours), no

excess (8 person-hours), Quarterly reports for NOX: CEMS

compliance (16 person-hours), excess (16 person-hours), no excess (8

person-hours), Appendix F quarterly reports: for SO2 (11 person-

hours), for NOX (11 person-hours). Recordkeeping requirements

include the following: Maintaining records of startup, shutdown,

malfunction (1.5 person-hours), Maintaining records of all measurements

(1.5 person-hours). Records must be kept for a period of two years.

This estimate includes the time needed to review instructions;

develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the

purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information,

processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing

information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously

applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to

respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete

and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise

disclose the information.

NSPS Subpart Ea Supplementary Information

Affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are

those which are subject to the NSPS Subpart Ea, Municipal Waste

Combustors (MWCs) with the exceptions listed in 40 CFR Part 60.50a (c),

(d) and (g). The Subpart Ea standards of 40 CFR Part 60 apply to MWC's

units with a capacity greater than 225 megagrams per day (250 tons/day)

of municipal solid waste or refuse-derived fuel, for which

construction, modification, or reconstruction commenced between

December 20, 1989 and September 20, 1994. MWC's that are constructed,

modified, or reconstructed after September 20, 1994 will be subject to

the NSPS Subpart Eb.

Title: NSPS Subpart Ea, Municipal Waste Combustors, OMB number

2060-0210, expires May 31, 1996.

Abstract: This ICR contains recordkeeping and reporting

requirements that are mandatory for compliance with 40 CFR Part 60.50a,

Subpart Ea, New Source Performance Standards for Municipal Waste

Combustors. Owners or operators of units subject to Subpart Ea must

provide the EPA, or the delegated State regulatory authority, with one-

time notifications and reports, and must keep records, as required of

all facilities subject to the general NSPS requirements. In addition,

facilities subject to this Subpart must install continuous monitoring

systems (CMS) to monitor specified operating parameters to ensure that

good combustion practices are implemented on a continuous basis. Owners

or operators must submit quarterly and annual compliance reports. The

notifications and reports enable the EPA or the delegated State

regulatory authority to determine that best demonstrated technology is

installed and properly operated and maintained, and to schedule

inspections. This information notifies the Agency when a source becomes

subject to the regulations and informs the Agency of the source's

compliance status when it begins operation. Later the quarterly and

annual reports apprise the Agency of the sources' compliance status.

The operating parameters specified for the continuous monitoring

systems (CMS) ensure that good combustion practices are implemented on

a continuous basis.

In the Administrator's judgement, emissions of the MWC metals, the

MWC organics, the MWC acid gases, and nitrogen oxides cause or

contribute to air pollution that may reasonably be anticipated to

endanger public health or welfare. Therefore, New Source Performance

Standards have been promulgated for this source category as required

under Section 111.

The control of emissions of MWC metals, MWC organics, MWC acid

gases and nitrogen oxides requires not only the correct installation,

operation, and maintenance of the equipment, but also properly trained

supervisors and equipment operators.

An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required

to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a

currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's

regulations are listed in 40 CFR Part 9.

The EPA would like to solicit comments to:

(i) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is

necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,

including whether the information will have practical utility;

(ii) evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden

of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of

the methodology and assumptions used;

(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information

to be collected; and

(iv) minimize the burden of the collection of information on those

who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated

electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or

other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic

submission of responses.

Burden Statement: The Agency computed the burden for each to the

recordkeeping and reporting requirements applicable to the industry for

the currently approved 1993 Information Collection Request (ICR). Where

appropriate, the Agency identified specific tasks and made assumptions,

while being consistent with the concept of burden under the Paperwork

Reduction Act.

The estimate was based on the assumption that there would be no new

facilities since any MWC's constructed, modified, or reconstruction

after September 20, 1994 would be subject to Subpart Eb not Subpart Ea

and that there are an average of 70 sources in existence for the three

years covered by the ICR. It is estimated that take: 51,352 person-

hours to fill out quarterly and annual reports (assuming 20% of the

sources will have at least one quarter with excess emissions) and

22,424 person-hours to enter information for records, for employee

review of operation manual, and reading reporting requirements.

The average burden to industry over the next three years from these

recordkeeping and reporting requirements is estimated at 73,776 person

hours. The respondent costs have been calculated on the basis of $14.50

per hour plus 110 percent overhead. The average burden to industry over

the next three years of the ICR is estimated to be $2,253,119.

This estimate includes the time needed to review instructions;

develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the

purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information,

processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing

information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously

applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to

respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete

and review the collection of

[[Page 63038]]

information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information.

NSPS Subpart EE Supplementary Information

Affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are

each metal furniture surface coating operation in which organic

coatings are applied and for which construction, modification or

reconstruction commenced after the date of proposal, November 28, 1980.

A surface coating operation includes the coating application

station(s), flash-off area, and curing oven.

Title: NSPS for Metal Furniture Surface Coating (Subpart EE)--

Information Requirements; OMB No.: 2060-1006; Expiration date: April

30, 1996.

Abstract: The EPA is charged under Section 111 of the Clean Air

Act, as amended, to establish standards of performance for new

stationary sources that reflect:

* * * application of the best technological system of continuous

emissions reduction which (taking into consideration the cost of

achieving such emissions reduction, of any nonair quality health and

environmental impact and energy requirements) the Administrator

determines has been adequately demonstrated [Section 111(a)(1)].

The Agency refers to this charge as selecting the best demonstrated

technology (BDT). Section 111 also requires that the Administrator

review, and, if appropriate revise such standards every four years. In

addition, Section 114(a) states that:

* * * the Administrator may require any owner or operator

subject to any requirement of this Act to (A) establish and maintain

such records, (B) make such reports, install, use and maintain such

monitoring equipment or methods (in accordance with such methods at

such locations, at such intervals, and in such manner as the

Administrator shall prescribe), and (D) provide such other

information, as he may reasonably require.

In the Administrator's judgment, VOC emissions form the metal

furniture surface coating industry cause or contribute to air pollution

that may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health or

welfare. Therefore, NSPS were promulgated for this source category.

The control of VOC emissions from metal furniture surface coating

operations requires not only the installation of properly designed

equipment, but also the operation and maintenance of that equipment.

VOC emissions from the coating of metal furniture surfaces result from

the application and curing or drying of organic coatings on the surface

of each metal furniture part or product. These standards rely on the

reduction of VOC emissions through either a capture system and

incinerator or a capture system and solvent recovery system.

Information is recorded in sufficient detail to enable owners or

operators to demonstrate compliance with the standards. This

information is used to monitor effective operation of the capture

system and control devices, thus ensuring continuous compliance with

the standards. The semiannual reporting requirement for no exceedances

of the monitoring parameters provides a good indication of a source's

compliance status.

The information collected from record keeping and reporting

requirements is also used for targeting inspections, and is of

sufficient quality to be used as evidence in court. An Agency may not

conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a

collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB

control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations are

listed in 40 CFR Part 9. In order to ensure compliance with these

standards, adequate record keeping is necessary. In the absence of such

information, enforcement personnel would be unable to determine whether

the standards are being met on a continuous basis, as required by the

Clean Air Act.

Owners/operators of affected facilities must report excess

emissions and deviations in operating parameters on a quarterly basis.

Where no exceedances have occurred during a particular quarter, a

report stating this shall be submitted semi-annually.

Notification of construction and startup indicates to enforcement

personnel when a new affected facility has been constructed and

therefore is subject to the standards. The information generated by the

monitoring, record keeping and reporting requirements described above

is used by the Agency to ensure facilities affected by the NSPS

continue to operate the control equipment used to achieve compliance

with the NSPS.

The following table documents the computation of individual burdens

for each of the record keeping and reporting requirements applicable to

the industry. The individual burdens are expressed under standardized

headings believed to be consistent with the concept of burden under the

Paperwork Reduction Act. Where appropriate, specific tasks and major

assumptions have been identified.

The EPA would like to solicit comments to:

(i) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is

necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,

including whether the information will have practical utility;

(ii) evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden

of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of

the methodology and assumptions used;

(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information

to be collected; and

(iv) minimize the burden of the collection of information on those

who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated

electronic,

[[Page 63039]]

mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms

of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of

responses.

The burden has been estimated at 60 hours for performance testing.

Notification of construction/modification, anticipated start-up,

initial performance test, actual performance test date, no excess

emissions, size cut offs exceeded are estimated to take two hours.

Reports of monitoring exceedances and periods of noncompliance are

estimated to require 16 hours. Notification of actual start-up is

estimated to require one hour. An hourly wage of $14.50 plus 110

percent overhead costs, which equals $30.45 has been used in the

previous ICR. Other assumptions include; total of 30 lines constructed

per year, 20 percent of initial performance tests must be repeated due

to failure, 80 percent of lines report no excess emission semiannually

(.8 x 705 = 564), no lines projecting application of less than 3,842

liters of coating are expected to exceed the cutoff in the next three

years, one occurrence of startup, shutdown or malfunction per week (50

weeks per year), and operating parameters are recorded 350 days per

year.

Burden Statement: The individual burdens for each of the record

keeping and reporting requirements applicable to the industry are

consistent with the concept of burden under the Paperwork Reduction

Act. The only type of industry costs associated with the information

collection activity in the standards are labor costs. The labor

estimates in the table were derived from standard estimates based on

EPA's experience with other standards. The average annual burden to

industry over the next three years from these record keeping and

reporting requirements is estimated at 128,213 person-hours. The

respondent costs have been calculated on the basis of $14.50 per hour

plus 110 percent overhead. The average annual burden to industry over

the next three years of the ICR is estimated to be $3,904,086. This

estimate includes the time needed to review instructions; develop,

acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes

of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and

maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information;

adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable

instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to respond to

a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review

the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the

information.

NSPS Subpart H Supplementary Information

Affected entities: are those plants that produce sulfuric acid by

the contact process by burning elemental sulfur, alkylation acid,

hydrogen sulfide, organic sulfides and mercaptans, or acid sludge, but

does not include facilities where conversion to sulfuric acid is

utilized primarily as a means of preventing emissions to the atmosphere

of sulfur dioxide or other sulfur compounds.

Title: NSPS Subpart H, Sulfuric Acid Plants, OMB number 2060-0041,

expires June 31, 1996.

Abstract: This ICR contains recordkeeping and reporting

requirements that are mandatory for compliance with 40 CFR Part 60.80,

Subpart H, New Source Performance Standards for Sulfuric Acid Plants.

This information notifies the Agency when a source becomes subject to

the regulations, and informs the Agency that the source is in

compliance when it begins operation. The Agency is informed of the

sources' compliance status by semiannual reports. The calibration and

maintenance requirements aid in a source remaining in compliance.

In the Administrator's judgement, SO2 and acid mist emissions

from the manufacture of sulfuric acid cause or contribute to air

pollution that may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health

or welfare. Therefore, New Source Performance Standards have been

promulgated for this source category as required under Section 111 of

the Clean Air Act.

The control of SO2 and acid mist requires not only the

installation of properly designed equipment, but also the proper

operation and maintenance of that equipment. Sulfur dioxide and acid

mist emissions from sulfuric acid plants result from the burning of

sulfur or sulfur-bearing feedstocks to form SO2, catalytic

oxidation of SO2 to SO3, and absorption of SO2 in a

strong acid stream. These standards rely on the capture of SO2 and

acid mist by venting to a control device.

Owners or operators of Sulfuric Acid Plants subject to NSPS are

required to make the following one-time-only reports: notification of

the date of construction or reconstruction; notification of the

anticipated and actual dates of startup; notification of any physical

or operational change to an existing facility which may increase the

regulated pollutant emission rate; notification of demonstration of the

continuous emission monitoring system (CEMS); notification of the date

of the initial performance test; and the results of the initial

performance test. After the initial recordkeeping and reporting

requirements, semiannual reports are required if there has been an

exceedance of control device operating parameters.

Owners or operators 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 notification, reports and

records are required, in general, of all sources subject to NSPS.

Four new facilities are estimated to become subject to NSPS Subpart

H annually.

An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required

to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a

currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's

regulations are listed in 40 CFR Part 9.

The EPA would like to solicit comments to:

(i) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is

necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,

including whether the information will have practical utility;

(ii) evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden

of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of

the methodology and assumptions used;

(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information

to be collected; and

(iv) minimize the burden of the collection of information on those

who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated

electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or

other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic

submission of responses.

Burden Statement: The current ICR estimates the total annual burden

to industry to be $675,478.44. This is based on a total average annual

burden of 22,183.2 person hours for 94 respondents with an average wage

of $14.55 per hour and 110% overhead. The burden is greatest for

facilities in their first year of operation. The burden in the first

year for reporting requirements is estimated to be 455.80 hours per

facility. The burden for future years is greatly reduced because the

initial notifications and initial performance tests are not required in

subsequent years. The estimated burden for record keeping requirements

for subsequent years per respondent is 140 person hours. This estimate

includes the time to enter information regarding

[[Page 63040]]

records of operating parameters and calculations/record of conversion

factors.

The following is a breakdown of burden used in the ICR. The

estimated burden is calculated as two hours for respondents to write

the reports for; notification of construction or reconstruction,

notification of physical or operation changes, notification of

anticipated startup, notification of actual startup, notification of

initial performance test, notification of demonstration of CMS. The ICR

uses 300 burden hours for the initial performance test. It is assumed

that 20% of all affected facilities will have to repeat performance

tests. The ICR uses four hours for performing the Reference Method 9

Test. It is estimated that performance of Reference Method 9 Test will

occur 1.2 times per facility a year. The ICR uses 40 hours to write an

excess emission reports--it is assumed this will take place twice a

year.

The recordkeeping burden is estimated to be 0.25 hours to enter

information regarding records of operating parameters. It is assumed

this will take place 350 times a year per facility. The burden to enter

information regarding calculation/record of conversion factors is 0.5

hours. It is assumed this will take place 1,050 times a year per

facility.

NSPS Subpart VV Supplementary Information

Affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are

those which are subject to Subpart VV, VOC Equipment Leaks in the

Synthetic Organic Chemicals Manufacturing Industry with the exceptions

listed in 40 CFR Part 60.480(d).

Title: NSPS Subpart VV, VOC Equipment Leaks in the SOCMI, OMB

number 2060-0012, expires May 31, 1996.

Abstract: This ICR contains recordkeeping and reporting

requirements that are mandatory for compliance with 40 CFR Part 60.480,

Subpart VV, VOC Equipment Leaks in the SOCMI. This information is used

by the Agency to identify sources subject to the standards and to

insure that the best demonstrated technology is being properly applied.

The standards require periodic recordkeeping to document process

information relating to the sources ability to identify and eliminate

leaking equipment. The standards apply to specific pieces of equipment

contained within a process unit in the SOCMI, including pumps in light

liquid service, compressors, pressure relief devices in gas/vapor,

light or heavy liquid service, sampling connection systems, open-ended

valves or lines, valves in gas/vapor and light liquid service, pumps

and valves in heavy liquid service, and flanges and other connectors.

In the Administrator's judgement, VOC emissions from equipment

leaks in the SOCMI cause or contribute to air pollution that may

reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare.

Therefore, New Source Performance Standards have been promulgated for

this source category as required under section 11 of the Clean Air Act.

The owners or operators of the affected facilities described must

make the following one time only reports: notification of the date of

construction or reconstruction, notification of the anticipated and

actual date of startup, notification of any physical or operational

change to an existing facility which may increase the emission rate of

any air pollutant to which the standard applies (in this case, VOC),

notification of the initial performance test, and the results of the

performance test. The only regular report required by this Subpart is a

semiannual excess emissions summary.

Owners or operator 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 malfunctions of the air pollution

control device. These notifications, reports and records are required,

in general, of all sources subject to the NSPS.

Recordkeeping requirements specific to equipment leaks in the SOCMI

support the facility's leak detection and repair program and include

identification of leaking equipment; a log of leaking equipment; a log

of information relating to the closed vent systems and control devices;

a log identifying all equipment subject to the standards; a log of

valves designated as difficult-to-monitor or unsafe-to-monitor; a log

of valves complying with skip period leak detection and repair

alternative standard; a log of criterion established which indicates a

failure of the seal system, barrier system, or both for each barrier

fluid system; dates of compliance tests and results; and for

determining exemptions, an analysis of design capacity of affected

sources or demonstration that the equipment is not in VOC service and a

statement listing the feed or raw materials and products.

Reporting requirements specific to equipment leaks in the SOCMI

consist of an initial semiannual report including process unit

identification and number of valves, pumps and compressors subject to

the standards. All semiannual reports are to include process unit

identification, number of components leaking and not repaired, dates of

process unit shutdowns, and revisions to items submitted in initial

semiannual report. The source is also required to notify the

Administrator of the election to use an alternative standard for valves

ninety days before implementing the provision.

An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required

to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a

currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's

regulations are listed in 40 CFR Part 9.

The EPA would like to solicit comments to:

(i) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is

necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,

including whether the information will have practical utility;

(ii) evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden

of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of

the methodology and assumptions used;

(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information

to be collected; and

(iv) minimize the burden of the collection of information on those

who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated

electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or

other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic

submission of responses.

Burden Statement: The Agency computed the burden for each of the

recordkeeping and reporting requirements applicable to the industry for

the currently approved ICR. Where appropriate, the Agency identified

specific tasks and made assumptions, while being consistent with the

concept of burden under the Paperwork Reduction Act.

The estimate was based on the assumption that there would be 166

new affected facilities each year and that there would be an annual

average of 1909 affected facilities over each of the next three years

covered by the ICR. For the new sources, it was estimated that it would

take: 166 person hours to read the instructions, 9562 person hours to

conduct the initial performance tests (assuming that 20% of the tests

must be repeated), and 1394 person hours to gather the information and

write the initial reports. For all sources, it was estimated that it

would take: 15,272 person hours to fill out semiannual reports and

152,720 person hours to

[[Page 63041]]

enter information for records of operating parameters.

The annual average burden to industry for the three year period

covered by this ICR from recordkeeping and reporting requirements has

been estimated at 179,104 person hours. The respondents costs were

calculated on the basis of $14.50 per hour plus 100% overhead. The

total annual burden to industry is estimated at $5,453,716.

This estimate includes the time needed to review instructions;

develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the

purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information,

processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing

information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously

applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to

respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete

and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise

disclose the information. No additional third party burden is

associated with this ICR.

NESHAP Subparts L and Y Supplementary Information

Affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are

coke by-product recovery plants (NESHAP Subpart L) and storage vessels

that store benzene having a specific gravity within the range of

specific gravities specified in ASTM D 836-84 for Industrial Grade

Benzene, ASTM D 835-85 for Refined Benzene-535 and ASTM D 4734-87 for

Refined Benzene-545 (NESHAP Subpart Y), which are codified as separate

subparts under 40 CFR, Part 61.

Title: National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants,

Benzene Emissions from Benzene Storage Vessels, and Coke Byproduct

Recovery Plants; OMB No. 2060-0185, expiration date: 6/30/96.

Abstract: The EPA is charged under Section 112 of the Clean Air

Act, as amended, with establishing emission standards for hazardous air

pollutants. These standards are to be set at a level which provides an

ample margin of safety to protect the public health. On June 8, 1977,

EPA determined that benzene presents a significant carcinogenic risk to

human health and is, therefore, a hazardous air pollutant requiring

regulation. In addition, Section 114(a) states that:

* * * the Administrator may require any owner or operator

subject to any requirement of this act to: (1) Establish and

maintain such records, (2) make such reports, (3) install, use and

maintain such monitoring equipment or methods (in accordance with

such methods at such locations, at such intervals, and in such

manner as the Administrator shall prescribe), and (4) provide such

other, information, as he may reasonably be required.

National Emission Standards for Benzene Emissions from Coke By-

product Recovery Plants were proposed by EPA on June 6, 1984 (49 FR

23522). At that time, an information collection request was submitted

(ICR number 1080). The proposed standards were reconsidered by EPA in

light of the U.S. Court of Appeals vinyl chloride decision [Natural

Resources Defense Council, Inc. v. EPA, 824 F.2d 1146, D.C. (1987)].

Other benzene-related actions including maleic anhydride, ethylbenzene/

styrene, benzene storage vessels, and equipment leaks were also

reviewed by EPA following the vinyl chloride court decision. The Agency

proposed four different approaches to regulating these benzene source

categories in a manner consistent with the vinyl chloride court

decision (53 FR 28496, July 28, 1988). Regulations proposed for maleic

anhydride and ethylbenzene/styrene were not promulgated and therefore

have been dropped from this information collection statement. The coke

by-product recovery plants rule was promulgated September 14, 1989 (54

FR 38044) and amended September 19, 1991 (56 FR 47406).

National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP)

for Benzene Emissions from Benzene Storage Vessels were proposed in

1980 and withdrawn by EPA on June 6, 1984 (49 FR 23558). On August 3,

1984, the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) filed a petition in

the U.S. Court of Appeals, seeking review of the EPA's storage

withdrawal and other benzene rulemakings. (Natural Resources Defense

Council Inc. v. Thomas, No. 84-1387) (referred to as Benzene). In light

of the U. S. Court of Appeals Vinyl Chloride decision (Natural

Resources Defense Council. Inc. v. EPA, 824 F.2d 1146, D.C. Cir., July

28, 1987), EPA requested a voluntary remand in Benzene to reconsider

its June 6, 1984, rulemakings. In an order dated December 8, 1987, the

court approved the EPA's voluntary remand and established a schedule

under which EPA must propose its action on reconsideration within 180

days of the order. In June 1988, EPA received a 45-day extension. The

benzene storage vessels rule was promulgated on September 14, 1989 (54

FR 38077) as 40 CFR Part 61 Subpart Y.

Subpart L: Coke By-Product Recovery Plants

A national emission standard for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP)

was proposed under Section 112 for coke by-product recovery plants, a

benzene source category, on June 6, 1984 (49 FR 23522), reproposed on

July 28, 1988 (53 FR 28496), and was promulgated on September 14, 1989.

The control requirements for coke by-product recovery plants

require that organic vapors be recovered and routed via closedvent

system (no detectable emissions) to a control device that achieves a 95

percent or greater destruction efficiency. The affected equipment must

not exceed a specified level of equipment leaks, either through a

concentration standard, or in the case of valves, a percent of total

valves standard is optional. The control of emissions of benzene from

recovery plants requires not only the installation of properly designed

equipment, but also the operation and maintenance of that equipment.

Emissions of benzene from recovery plants covered by this regulation

are the result of leaking equipment.

The standards require initial notification reports with respect to

construction, emissions tests, and startup. The standards also require

reports on initial performance tests and emissions tests results.

Notifications are used to inform the Agency or delegated authority

when a source becomes subject to the standard. The reviewing authority

may then inspect the source to check that pollution control devices are

properly installed and operated and the standards are being met.

Performance test reports are needed as these are the Agency's record of

a source's initial capability to comply with the emission standard, and

note the operating conditions under which compliance was achieved. The

regular reports are used for problem identification, as a check on

source operation and maintenance, and for compliance determinations.

The information generated by the monitoring, recordkeeping and

reporting requirements described above is used by the Agency to ensure

that facilities affected by the NESHAP continue to operate the control

equipment used to achieve compliance. Effective enforcement of the

standard is particularly necessary in light of the hazardous nature of

benzene. Information is recorded in such sufficient detail to enable

owners or operators to demonstrate compliance with the standards. This

information is

[[Page 63042]]

used to monitor fugitive emissions directly, and to ensure effective

operation of the vapor-collection system and control device, thus

ensuring continuous compliance with the indications of a source's

continuing compliance status. The information collected from

recordkeeping and reporting requirements is also used for targeting

inspections, and is of sufficient quality to be used as evidence in

court. Records and reports also are necessary to enable EPA to identify

plants that may not understand the workings of the standard or that may

not be in compliance with the standard. Based on reported information,

EPA can decide how many plant inspections would be needed, which plants

should be inspected, and what records or processes should be inspected

at the plant. In the absence of such information enforcement personnel

would be unable to determine whether the standards are being met on a

continuous basis, as required by the Clean Air Act, owners or operators

of the affected facilities described must make the following one-time-

only notices or reports: notification of anticipated startup,

notification of actual startup, notification of construction or

modification, initial compliance report, notification of emission test,

report following an emission test, notification of a monitoring system

performance test, and report following a monitoring system performance

test. These notifications and reports are general provisions and

required of all sources subject to any NESHAP.

Reporting requirements specific to benzene coke by-product recovery

plants, Subpart L, include a semiannual report by affected facilities.

The semiannual reports include results of leak monitoring and

performance tests. Respondents also are required to submit semiannual

reports of measurements for sources subject to a no detectable

emissions limit and semiannual reports summarizing the results of the

leak detection and repair program implemented at the plant. One report

would incorporate information for both process equipment and fugitive

sources. These reports would include information such as number of

leaks that occurred, the number that could not be repaired, the general

reasons for unsuccessful or delay of repair, and the results of

performance tests conducted during the reporting period.

Monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting requirements specific to

benzene coke by-product recovery plants for leak detection and repair

of fugitive emission sources are those provisions specified under 40

CFR 61, NESHAP Subpart V. The Subpart V regulations for equipment leaks

were approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under

control number 2060-0068. The only difference in the equipment leak

requirements of Subpart V and this regulation relates to exhausters.

Exhausters are subject to quarterly monitoring requirements. However,

quarterly monitoring is not required if the exhauster is equipped with

a seal system that has a barrier fluid, the exhauster seal is loaded

and vented to a control device, or a leakless exhauster is used.

Exhausters are subject to the same recordkeeping and reporting

provisions as other equipment subject to Subpart V.

The added control amendment to the coke-by-product plant benzene

NESHAP is based on a settlement agreement pursuant to a petition to

review the benzene NESHAP by the American Coke and Coal Chemicals

Institute (ACCCI). The recordkeeping and reporting requirements

contained in this rule are consistent with those described in the

agreement.

The owner or operator choosing to use one of the alternative

control technologies (i.e., a carbon absorber or a vapor incinerator)

would be required to record for the life of the control device, the

design of the control device, the sources which it is intended to

control, and a plan for the operation, maintenance and action needed to

correct problems. Such a record would assist the owner or operator to

operate the device properly throughout its life and would also assist

the enforcement personnel in determining, when reviewing records that

indicate problems with the control device, whether the device had been

properly maintained and appropriate corrective action had been taken.

The owner or operator would be required to record the results of each

test for determining compliance with the standard. Also required to be

recorded would be any data that provide reference values for parameters

that are important to monitoring, such as temperature of the firebox in

a vapor incinerator and the benzene concentration at the inlet to a

carbon adsorber. Some of these data are gathered during the compliance

test, others separately (e.g., the demonstrated bed life of a carbon

adsorber).

These records would be required to be kept for at least two years,

or until the next compliance test (or time that the parameter reference

value is determined), whichever is longer. Finally, the results of

monitoring the control device would be required to be recorded for at

least 2 years. The records would include any periods when the

boundaries established for the monitored parameters were exceeded and

the action taken to correct the problem that led to the exceedance.

The alternative control options require reporting in addition to

recordkeeping. The General Provisions require reporting of compliance

tests. This would be submitted each time a compliance test is

performed. The rule requires compliance tests to be done initially and

at the request of EPA (not at predetermined intervals). In addition,

the rule requires reporting of exceedances of the monitored parameters,

with a brief description of the corrective action taken. Included would

be exceedances of the operating requirements such as if the source were

not vented to a fresh carbon bed before the maximum concentration point

was exceeded on the spent bed. The reports are required quarterly. When

semiannual reports under Subpart L are due, the information for the

quarterly report should be submitted as part of the semiannual report.

If there were no exceedances during a quarter in which no semiannual

report was due, reporting for that quarter could be skipped and a

notation to that effect included in the next report. The reason that

quarterly reports are required for these control devices is because the

monitoring is generally continuous and therefore provides a continuous

record of problems with operation and maintenance of the device.

Because of the hazardous nature of benzene, it is important that

enforcement personnel are alerted to plants that are having problems

with their control device and are potentially in violation of the

standards. The enforcement personnel can then move quickly to make sure

the problem area is corrected.

Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part shall

maintain an up-to-date file of monitoring and recordings, and retain

them for at least two years following. Records of equipment and process

design are kept permanently.

These data would include information necessary to administer the

program (such as source identification number, percent by weight

benzene in the process s fluid, type of fugitive emission source) as

well as data gathered relating directly to leak detection and repair

(such as leak dates and repair methods). Respondents using gas-

blanketing systems, closed-vent systems, and control devices are

required to maintain records of schematics, design specifications,

piping and instrumentation diagrams, and other information related to

changes in design

[[Page 63043]]

or operation. Other records are required for sources which may be

designated for no detectable emissions or as unsafe or difficult to

monitor.

All reports are sent to the delegated State or Local authority. If

there is no such delegated authority, the reports are sent directly to

the EPA Regional Office.

Data obtained by Agency personnel from records maintained by the

respondents during periodic visits are tabulated and published for

internal Agency use in compliance and enforcement programs.

Information contained in the report is entered into the Aerometric

Information Retrieval System (AIRS) Facility Subsystem (AFS) which is

operated and maintained by EPA' s Office of Air Quality Planning and

Standards. The AFS is EPA's database for the collection, maintenance

and retrieval of compliance data and annual emission inventory data for

over 100,000 industrial and government facilities. EPA uses AFS for

tracking compliance and enforcement by Local and State regulatory

agencies, EPA Regional Offices and Headquarters. EPA personnel can

edit, store, retrieve and analyze the data via personal computer

terminals.

Burden Statement: For Subpart L, the Agency computed the burden for

each of the recordkeeping and reporting requirements applicable to the

industry for the currently approved 1993 Information Collection Request

(ICR). Where it was appropriate, the Agency identified specific tasks

and made assumptions, while being consistent with the concept of burden

under the Paper Reduction Act. The 1993 ICR review was the first since

promulgation of the rule and consolidated the added control options

promulgated in September 1991.

For Subpart L, the majority of industry costs associated with the

information collection activity in the standards are labor costs. The

labor estimates were derived from standard estimates based on EPA's

experience with other standards. For the purpose of the 1993 ICR burden

analysis it was assumed that no sources choose to comply with the

percent-allowable leaks nor skip period reporting. Thus, the burden

analysis was based on a most burdensome case scenario for reporting and

recordkeeping.

Recordkeeping and reporting requirements are an ongoing burden

associated with this ICR. The 1993 ICR estimated a nationwide

annualized cost to respondents for recordkeeping and reporting

requirements of $215,678 over a 3-year period. The respondent burden

was estimated at 7,083 person-hours per year. This estimate was based

upon a cost of $14.50 per hour plus an overhead rate of 110 percent,

for a total cost of $30.45 per hour.

The following is a breakdown of burden used in the 1993 ICR for

Subpart L. It was assumed that 36 sources were subject to the standard

and no additional sources per year will become subject to the standard

over the past three years. The ICR allocated 224.5 hours per respondent

for implementing the activities required to meet the recordkeeping and

reporting requirements. Specifically, 132 hours were allocated for

filing and maintaining records, 4 hours for conducting Method 21 tests

during the year, 57.5 hours for creating the information for reporting

and 31 hours for writing the report.

Subpart Y: Benzene Storage Vessels

Respondents are all owners or operators of benzene storage vessels.

It is estimated that 126 existing plants are subject to the standard.

All owners and operators of new or reconstructed plants would also have

to respond.

In the General Provisions of 40 CFR Part 61 applicable to storage

vessels, require up to four separate one time-only reports for each

owner or operator: notification of construction or reconstruction,

initial source report, notification of physical/operational changes,

notification of anticipated and actual startup. The initial source

report is the only one of these reports that would be required from

existing sources under the standard.

Certain records and reports are necessary to assist EPA and State

agencies to which enforcement has been delegated in determining

compliance with the standard.

An initial emissions test is not required because conducting an

emission test is not feasible. Therefore, the format of the standard is

that of an equipment standard. Owners or operators of vessels equipped

with the specified controls are required to submit, along with the

notifications required by the General Provisions, a report that

describes the control equipment used to comply with the regulation.

Thereafter, an annual visual inspection is required of the primary seal

of internal floating roof vessels (IFR's) (in cases where no secondary

seal is present). An annual seal gap measurement of the secondary seal

system on external floating roof vessels (EFR's) is required. The

following inspections are required every five years: (1) internal

inspection of seal system on IFR's equipped with primary and secondary

seals in situations where the owner or operator has decided to forego

the annual visual inspection; and (2) measurement of gaps between the

tank wall and primary seal on EFR's. An internal inspection in which

the tank is emptied and degassed is required at least every 10 years

for IFR's.

Another control option allowed is for owners or operators to equip

vessels with closed-vent systems and 95-percent efficient control

devices. It is expected that very few, if any, vessels will be equipped

with these systems; however, owners or operators of vessels with such

systems are required to submit, for the Administrator's approval, an

operating plan describing system design specifications and an

operation, maintenance, and inspection plan for the system. In the

event the owner or operator has installed a flare, a report showing

compliance with visible emission provisions shall be furnished to the

Administrator. For closed-vent systems with control devices, quarterly

reports are required informing the Administrator of each occurrence

that results in excess emissions. Annual reports of the results of

these inspections and seal gap measurements are required. These reports

shall identify each storage vessel that is determined to be out of

compliance with the standard, the nature of the defects, and the date

the vessel was emptied or the repair was made. The owner or operator

shall keep copies of all reports and records resulting from these

inspections for two years.

The owner or operator of each benzene storage vessel shall, for the

life of the source, keep readily accessible records showing the

dimension of the vessel and an analysis showing the capacity of the

storage vessel. For each vessel with a closed vent system and 95-

percent efficient control device, records of the operating plan shall

be kept for the life of the control device. Records of monitored

parameters and maintenance shall be kept for two years.

Burden Statement: For Subpart Y, EPA estimated the nationwide

annualized cost to respondents at a $47,045/yr over a 3-year period.

The respondent burden is estimated at 1,545 person-hours/yr. Respondent

costs are estimated based on a cost of $14.50 per hour, and on an

overhead rate of 110 percent (for a total cost per hour of $30.45). The

annual reporting burden is estimated at a $39,372/yr over a 3-year

period. The number of responses per year is estimated to be 162. The

number of responses per respondent is estimated to be five. The total

annual responses are estimated to be 810. The number of hours per

response per year is estimated

[[Page 63044]]

to be four. These estimates include the time needed to review

instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and

systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying

information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and

providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any

previously applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to

be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources;

complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or

otherwise disclose the information.
