The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Pesticide Active Ingredient Production (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart MMM) apply to existing and new facilities engaged in the production of pesticide active ingredients (PAIs) that emit HAPs. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification or reconstruction after the date of proposal. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, 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 startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart MMM.
There is a decrease in the total capital/startup cost and O&M cost due to a correction. This ICR corrects an error in the capital/startup cost calculation in the previous ICR, as existing sources are not expected to incur capital/startup costs associated with purchasing PRD electronic indicators. There is also a small adjustment increase in the estimated labor hours due to a change in assumption. This ICR assumes all existing sources will take some time to re-familiarize with the regulations each year.
