    Abstract: Owners and operators of affected facilities are required to comply with reporting and record keeping requirements for the General Provisions (40 CFR part 60, subpart A), as well as for the specific requirements at 40 CFR part 60, subpart BBB. This includes submitting initial notifications, performance tests and periodic reports and results, and maintaining 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 reports are used by EPA to determine compliance with the standards.

    Form Numbers: None.

    Respondents/affected entities: Rubber tire manufacturing plants that commenced construction or modification after January 20, 1983.

    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart BBB).

    Estimated number of respondents: 41 (total).

    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, semiannually, and annually.

    Total estimated burden: 17,700 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).Start Printed Page 7819

    Total estimated cost: $1,850,000 (per year), which includes $16,400 in either annualized capital/startup or operation & maintenance costs.

    Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the total estimated burden and cost as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This increase is not due to any program changes. The change in the respondent labor hour estimates occurred because of a change in assumption. This ICR assumes all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.
