The NESHAP for Site Remediation was proposed on July 30, 2002, promulgated on October 8, 2003, and most recently amended on July 10, 2020 and December 22, 2022. These regulations apply to site remediation activities that clean up materials containing organic hazardous air pollutants (HAP), where the site remediation is co-located at any facility with one or more stationary source that emit HAP, and where the facility is a major source of HAP. Major sources of HAP are sources that emit any single HAP at a rate of 10 tons or more per year or any combination of HAP at a rate of 25 tons or more per year. Site remediation activities may potentially occur at any facility where materials containing organic HAP currently are or have been stored, processed, treated, or otherwise managed at the facility. The types of businesses most likely to be subject to this rule include, but are not limited to, organic liquid storage terminals, petroleum refineries, chemical manufacturing facilities, and manufacturing facilities using organic materials. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart GGGGG. 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, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NESHAP.
There is an increase in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This increase is due to an increase in the number of respondents. A December 2022 rulemaking amended this subpart by removing an exemption from the applicability provisions for site remediation activities performed under the authority of the Comprehensive Environmental Response and Compensation Liability Act (CERCLA) and for site remediation activities performed under a Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) corrective action or other required RCRA order. This resulted in an increase in the number of respondents and estimated burden. This ICR further adjusts the burden based on the assumption that the initial requirements for new sources have already been met. There is a decrease in capital costs based on the assumption that initial capital costs have already been incurred by facilities that became subject to the rule in December 2022. There is an increase in O&M costs due to the increased number of existing facilities that conduct O&M activities.
