        Title: New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Nitric Acid 
    Plants (Subpart G)--Information Requirements. (EPA ICR No. 1056.05; OMB 
    Control No. 2060-0019). This is a renewal of a currently approved 
    collection.
        Abstract: Owners or operators of nitric acid plants must provide 
    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, calibrate, maintain, 
    and operate a continuous monitoring system (CMS) for the measurement 
    and recording of nitrogen oxides emissions, and must notify EPA or the 
    State regulatory authority of the date upon which demonstration of the 
    CMS' performance commences. Owners or operators must submit semiannual 
    reports of excess nitrogen oxides emissions and of monitoring system 
    performance. The notifications and reports enable EPA or the delegated 
    State regulatory authority to determine that best demonstrated 
    technology is installed and properly operated and maintained and to 
    schedule inspections.
        Burden Statement: The public reporting burden for this collection 
    of information is estimated to average 9 hours per response for 
    reporting, and 175 hours per recordkeeper annually. The estimated 
    reporting burden includes the time needed to review instructions, 
    search existing data sources, gather the data needed and review the 
    collection of information.
        Respondents: Owners and operators of nitric acid plants.
        Estimated No. of Respondents: 30.
        Estimated No. of Responses Per Respondent: 2.
        Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 5,800 hours.
        Frequency of Collection: Once and semiannually.
        Send comments regarding the burden estimate, or any other aspect of 
    the information collection, including suggestions for reducing the 
    burden, to:
