The affected entities are subject to the General Provisions of the NSPS at 40 CFR part 60, subpart A and any changes, or additions to the Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 60, subpart AAAA.
Owners or operators of the affected facilities must make an initial notification reports, performance tests, periodic reports, and 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 are also required semiannually.
There is an overall increase in respondent burden from the most recently approved ICR due to an increase of one new source subject to the regulation (i.e. respondent universe). The growth in respondent universe results in an increase in the labor hours, labor costs, number of responses, and O&M costs for the private sector. However, there is a small adjustment decrease in labor hours and O&M cost for the public sector due to refinement in the Agencyâs estimates and rounding. In this ICR, we have rounded all estimated hours and costs to three significant digits.
