The affected entities are subject to the General Provisions of the NESHAP at 40 CFR part 61, subpart A, and any changes, or additions to the Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 61, subpart FF. Owners or operators of the affected facilities must submit initial notification, 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.
There is an adjustment increase in the respondent burden from the most recently approved ICR. The increase is primarily attributed to correcting an entry error in the number of respondents that record monthly benzene waste concentration data under Table 1, labor item 4(c)(ii). In addition, we have rounded all total values to 3 significant figures. There is also an adjustment increase in the number of responses due to a correction. The previous ICR did not account for quarterly emission reports and notifications of offsite facilities in calculating the number of responses.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).

(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
