The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Polymeric Coating of Supporting Substrates Facilities (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart VVV) apply to each existing and new coating operation and any on-site coating mix preparation equipment used to prepare coatings for the polymeric coating of supporting substrates. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after the date of proposal. In general, all NSPS 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 60, Subpart VVV.
There is an increase in burden from the most-recently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This is due to an increase in the number of respondents subject to the rule. An examination of EPAs Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO) database indicated that there are 72 sources currently reporting under NSPS Subpart VVV, an increase of 10 sources from the previous ICR. The regulations have not changed over the past three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three years. The increase in the operation and maintenance (O&M) costs is due to the increase in the number of respondents performing monitoring activities. The rate of increase in the number of new respondents remains steady at one new source per year, so the capital/startup cost will not increase.
