The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for the Surface Coating of Large Appliances is codified at 40 CFR part 63, Subpart NNNN. The NESHAP defines a âlarge appliance part or productâ as âa component of a large appliance product manufactured for household, recreational, institutional, commercial, or industrial useâ including but not limited to âcooking equipment; refrigerators, freezers, and refrigerated cabinets and cases; laundry equipment; dishwashers, trash compactors, and water heaters; and heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) units, air-conditioning (except motor vehicle) units, air-conditioning and heating combination units, comfort furnaces, and electric heat pumps. Specifically excluded are heat transfer coils and large commercial and industrial chillers.â New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after July 23, 2002. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests (if sources are using add-on controls to demonstrate compliance), and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any deviation from an emission limitation (either a numerical emission limit, an operating limit, or an equipment or work practice standard), or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to the NESHAP. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart NNNN.
As part of the RTR for the Large Appliances NESHAP, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to revise the startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM) provisions of the MACT rule and proposing the use of electronic data reporting for future performance test data submittals, notifications, and reports.
The current proposed rule results in a small increase in the labor hours due to three considerations: 1) time in year one to get familiar with the rule amendment, 2) increased time in year one to re-evaluating previously developed SSM record systems, and 3) time in year one to become familiar with CEDRI and the electronic reporting form for the semiannual report.
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).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
