(ICR) abstracted below has been forwarded to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for review and comment. The ICR describes the nature

DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before November 3, 1994.

Office of Air and Radiation
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.

the information collection, including suggestions for reducing the
burden, to:
