The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Metal Can Manufacturing Surface Coating were proposed on January 15, 2003, promulgated on November 13, 2003, and most recently amended on February 25, 2020. The latest amendment was a residual risk and technology review (RTR) required of periodic air emissions testing, revisions to the startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM) provisions, and the use of electronic data reporting for performance test data submittals notifications, and reports. These regulations apply to existing and new facilities in this source category that use 5,700 liters (1,500 gallons) per year or more of coatings and that is a major source of hazardous air pollutant (HAP). The metal can surface coating source category includes any facilities that coat or print metal cans (including decorative tins), metal ends for metal or composite cans, or metal crowns or closures for any type of can during any stage of the can manufacturing process. The source category does not include the coating of metal coils for cans or can parts. Coil coating for cans and can parts is included in the NESHAP for the surface coating of metal coil (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart SSSS). The source category does not include the coating of pails and drums, which is covered in the NESHAP for the surface coating of miscellaneous metal parts and products (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart MMMM). New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after January 15, 2003. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart KKKK.
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 a decrease of 54 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. The previous ICR reflected those burdens and costs associated with the initial activities for subject facilities due to the 2020 amendments. This included time to familiarize with CEDRI for electronic reporting and revision of record systems due to the revisions for periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction. There is also a decrease in the Capital O&M compared to the previously approved ICR. Most of the Capital O&M included with the previous ICR is associated with capital and startup costs. This ICR, by in large, reflects the on-going burden and costs for existing facilities following rulemaking activities.
