The potential respondents are owners or operators of any existing or new affected source with facilities that pickle steel using hydrochloric acid or regenerate hydrochloric acid and are major sources or are part of a facility that is a major source subject to 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart CCC. Owners or operators of the affected facilities must submit initial notification, performance tests, and semiannual and periodic test 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.
The decrease in labor hours from the most-recently approved ICR is the result of revising the assumption for the number of labor hours required to draft a revised operation and maintenance plan. This ICR assumes it takes less time to revise an existing operation and maintenance plan than it does to implement an initial plan. This decrease is not due to any program changes.
