Title: NESHAP for Plastic Parts and Products Surface Coating (Renewal).

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 2044.04, OMB Control Number 2060-0537.

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on April 30, 2010. Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. 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 in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the Federal Register when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, and displayed either by publication in the Federal Register or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.

Abstract: Entities potentially affected by this action are the owners or operators of plastic parts and products surface coating facilities. The affected entities are subject to the General Provisions of the NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A, and any changes, or additions to the Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, subpart PPPP. Owners or operators of the affected facilities must submit a one-time-only report of any physical or operational changes, initial performance tests, and periodic reports and results. 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. Reports, at a minimum, are required semiannually.

Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 91 hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This 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 which have subsequently changed; 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.

Respondents/Affected Entities: Plastic parts and products surface coating facilities.

Estimated Number of Respondents: 828.

Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 320,917.

Estimated Total Annual Cost: $27,444,633, which includes $27,180,233 in labor costs, $16,000 in capital/startup costs, and $248,400 in operation and maintenance (O&M) costs.

Changes in the Estimates: There is a small decrease in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. This change in burden from the most recently approved ICR is due to an adjustment. Minor calculation errors in the previous ICR were corrected.
