The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Automobile and Light-duty Truck Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart IIII) apply to new, reconstructed, or existing facilities that apply topcoat to new automobile or new light-duty truck bodies or body parts for new automobiles or new light-duty trucks, and that is a major source, is located at a major source, or is part of a major source of emissions of hazardous air pollutants (HAP). New facilities include those that commenced either construction, or reconstruction after the date of proposal.
Owners and operators of major sources of HAP that apply topcoat to new automobile or new light-duty truck bodies or body parts for new automobiles or new light-duty trucks are required to comply with reporting and record keeping requirements for the General Provisions (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart A), as well as for the applicable standards in 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart IIII. This includes submitting notifications, performance test reports, and periodic reports, as well as maintaining records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility; continuous parameter monitoring data; or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These reports are used by the EPA to determine compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart IIII.
The decrease in burden from the most recently-approved ICR is due to a decrease in the number of sources subject to the rule. This estimate is based on Agency analyses conducted during the development the Risk and Technology Review for this subpart. This decrease in the number of sources leads to a decrease in the number of responses, reporting and recordkeeping hours, and a decrease in the operation and maintenance (O&M) costs as compared with the costs in the previous ICR. The regulations have not changed over the past three years.
