ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
[FRL-4858-3]
Agency Information Collection Activities Under OMB Review
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.), this notice announces that the Information Collection Request
(ICR) abstracted below has been forwarded to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for review and comment. The ICR describes the nature
of the information collection and its expected cost and burden; where
appropriate, it includes the actual data collection instrument.
DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before May 6, 1994.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For further information, or to obtain
a copy of this ICR, contact Sandy Farmer at 202-260-2740.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Office of Air and Radiation
Title: New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for the Phosphate
Fertilizer Industry (Subparts T, U, V, W, and X). (EPA ICR No. 1061.06;
OMB No. 2060-0037). This is a request for renewal of a currently
approved information collection.
Abstract: Owners or operators of phosphate fertilizer plants must
notify EPA or the delegated regulatory authority of construction,
modification, startups, shutdowns, malfunctions, and dates and results
of initial performance tests. Owners and operators must install,
calibrate, and maintain monitoring devices to determine the mass flow
of phosphate-bearing feed, and devices to measure and record
continuously pressure drop across the scrubbers, and must keep records
of the mass of phosphate bearing feed. This industry is not required to
submit excess emission reports. EPA or the delegated authority reviews
the records during routine inspections to ensure compliance with the
standards.
Burden Statement: The reporting requirements apply only to the
initial performance tests, and since no new or reconstructed sources
are expected to become subject to the standards in the next three
years, there is no burden projected for reporting. The public
recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to
average 87.5 hours per recordkeeper annually. The estimated burden
includes the time needed to review instructions, search existing data
sources, gather the data needed and review the collection of
information.
Respondents: Owners or operators of phosphate fertilizer plants.
Estimated No. of Respondents: 11.
Estimated No. of Responses per Respondent: None.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 963 hours for
recordkeeping only.
Frequency of Collection: Not applicable.
Send comments regarding the burden estimate, or any other aspect of
the information collection, including suggestions for reducing the
burden, to:
Ms. Sandy Farmer, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Information
Policy Branch (2136), 401 M Street, SW., Washington, DC 20460.
and
Mr. Chris Wolz, Office of Management and Budget, Office of Information
and Regulatory Affairs, 725 17th Street, NW., Washington, DC 20503.
Dated: March 31, 1994.

Director, Regulatory Management Division.
