NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart HHHHH) Residual Risk and Technology Review Amendments

1. Identification of the Information Collection

      1(a) Title of the Information Collection

NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart HHHHH) (Amendments), EPA ICR Number 2115.09, OMB Control Number 2060-0535. 

      1(b) Short Characterization/Abstract
      
      The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for the regulations published at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart HHHHH were proposed on April 4, 2002, promulgated on December 11, 2003, and most recently amended on August 14, 2020. The NESHAP is codified at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart HHHHH. This supporting statement addresses information collection activities that will be imposed by the NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing for the inorganic HAP amendments proposed to be added under the Clean Air Act (CAA).
      
      The NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing applies to new and existing facilities that: 1) manufacture a miscellaneous coating (including inks, paints, or adhesives described by Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes 285 or 289, or North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) codes 3255 or 3259), and 2) are either located at, or are part of, major sources of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions, and 3) process, use, or produce HAP, and 4) are not part of an affected source under another subpart of 40 CFR Part 63. New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after April 4, 2002. 
      

      In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They also require facility owners and operators to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any deviation from an emission limitation, 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.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      This Information Collection Request (ICR) presents the burden to respondents and the Designated Administrator (i.e., U.S. EPA or a delegated authority) to implement the NESHAP for these Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing amendments. Respondents are owners or operators of existing major sources that perform miscellaneous coating manufacturing. The requirements described below are the minimum requirements that are added by the amended NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing. Although the Designated Administrator may choose to impose more stringent requirements, it is assumed for this burden estimate that the implemented plans mirror the NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Any owner/operator subject to the provisions of this part shall maintain a file containing these documents and retain the file for at least 5 years following the generation date of such maintenance reports and records. All reports are sent to the delegated state or local authority. In the event that there is no such delegated authority, the reports are sent directly to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regional office.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Based on our search of the National Emission Inventory (NEI) and EPA's Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO) database (www.echo.epa.gov) and a review of active air emissions permits, we estimate that 42 facilities are subject to the NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing A complete list of facilities subject to the NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing is available in the Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0747 for this rulemaking.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      All of the affected sources that manufacture miscellaneous coatings in the United States are owned and operated by the private industry (the "Affected Public"). None of the affected facilities in the United States are owned by state, local, tribal or the Federal government. They are all privately owned, for-profit businesses. We assume that they will all respond. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      When the rule amendments are promulgated, approximately 42 respondents per year will be subject to the standard. Further, the industry growth rate is low. The American Coatings Association's (ACA) Industry Market Analysis (9th edition, 2014  -  2019) characterized the coating manufacturing industry as mature and low growth. Therefore, we are assuming no new facilities in the 3 years following promulgation of the amendments.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approved the currently active ICR without any "Terms of Clearance".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The "burden" to the Affected Public may be found below in Tables 1 through 4 of Attachment 1. The cost of this ICR to sources that manufacture miscellaneous coatings is $192,000 in labor costs and $30,000 in capital costs, or $222,000 per year if averaged over the first 3 years after the amendments are final. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The total Agency cost during the first 3 years of the ICR is estimated to be $7,500 or $2,500 per year if averaged over the first 3 year period after the amendments are final. The "burden" to the Agency may be found below in Tables 5 through 8 of Attachment 2. The burden includes the cost to Federal EPA and state agencies to implement the amendments.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Need for and Use of the Collection
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      2(a) Need/Authority for the Collection
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The EPA is requesting this information collection under its existing CAA authority provided in CAA sections 112 and 114. Section 112 of the CAA requires the EPA to establish NESHAP for major sources of HAP that are listed for regulation under CAA section 112(c). A major source is a stationary source that emits or has the potential to emit more than 10 tons per year of any single HAP or more than 25 tons per year of any combination of HAP. For major sources, the NESHAP includes technology-based standards that must reflect the maximum degree of emission reductions of HAP achievable (after considering cost, energy requirements, and non-air quality health and environmental impacts). In the Administrator's judgment, HAP emissions from miscellaneous coating manufacturers cause or contribute to air pollution that may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare. Therefore, the NESHAP were promulgated for this source category at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart HHHHH.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The EPA is making any amendments to 40 CFR 63, Subpart HHHHH, to include inorganic HAP requirements.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Certain records and reports are necessary for the Administrator to confirm the compliance status of sources subject to NESHAP, identify any new or reconstructed sources subject to the standards, and confirm that the standards are being achieved on a continuous basis. These recordkeeping and reporting requirements are specifically authorized by section 114 of the CAA (42 U.S.C. 7414) and set out in the part 63 NESHAP General Provisions (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart A). CAA Section 114(a) states that the Administrator may require any owner/operator subject to any requirement of this Act to: 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (A) Establish and maintain such records; (B) make such reports; (C) install, use, and maintain such monitoring equipment, and use such audit procedures, or methods; (D) sample such emissions (in accordance with such procedures or methods, at such locations, at such intervals, during such periods, and in such manner as the Administrator shall prescribe); (E) keep records on control equipment parameters, production variables or other indirect data when direct monitoring of emissions is impractical; (F) submit compliance certifications in accordance with Section 114(a)(3); and (G) provide such other information as the Administrator may reasonably require.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      2(b) Practical Utility/Users of the Data
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The recordkeeping and reporting requirements in the standard ensure compliance with the applicable regulations which were promulgated in accordance with the CAA. The collected information is also used for targeting inspections and as evidence in legal proceedings.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Performance tests are required to determine an affected facility's initial and ongoing capability to comply with the emission standard. During the performance test a record of the operating parameters under which compliance was achieved is recorded and used to determine compliance. Continuous parameter monitoring systems are used to ensure compliance with the standard at all times.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The required semiannual reports are used to determine periods of excess emissions, identify problems at the facility, verify operation/maintenance procedures and for compliance determinations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Nonduplication, Consultations, and Other Collection Criteria
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The requested recordkeeping and reporting are required under 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart HHHHH.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(a) Nonduplication
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       If the subject standards have not been delegated, the information is sent directly to the appropriate EPA regional office. Otherwise, the information is sent directly to the delegated state or local agency. If a state or local agency has adopted its own similar standards to implement the Federal standards, a copy of the report submitted to the state or local agency can be sent to the Administrator in lieu of the report required by the Federal standards. Therefore, no duplication exists.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(b) Public Notice Required Prior to ICR Submission to OMB
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      A public notice of this collection will be provided in the Federal Register notice of proposed rulemaking entitled, "National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants: Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing Residual Risk and Technology Review Amendments". 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(c) Consultations

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The Agency has consulted industry experts (i.e., American Coatings Association (ACA), ACA Industry Market Analysis) and internal data sources to project the number of affected facilities and industry growth over the next 3 years. The primary source of information as reported by industry, in compliance with the recordkeeping and reporting provisions in the standard, is the Integrated Compliance Information System (ICIS). ICIS is EPA's database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance data for industrial and government-owned facilities. The growth rate for the industry is based on our consultations with the Agency's internal industry experts. Zero new respondents will be subject to the standard over the three-year period covered by this ICR.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Industry trade associations and other interested parties were contacted and provided an opportunity to comment on the burden associated with the proposed standard as it was being developed. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      In developing this ICR, we are providing all interested parties the opportunity to review and comment on the revised burden estimated in this ICR as a result of the proposed amendments.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(d) Effects of Less Frequent Collection
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The frequency of the information collections remains the same in these proposed revisions. Less frequent information collection would decrease the margin of assurance that facilities are continuing to meet the standards. Requirements for information gathering and recordkeeping are useful techniques to ensure that good operation and maintenance practices are applied and emission limitations are met. If the information required by these standards was collected less frequently, the proper operation and maintenance of control equipment and the possibility of detecting violations would be less likely.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(e) General Guidelines
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      These reporting or recordkeeping requirements do not violate any of the regulations promulgated by OMB under 5 CFR Part 1320, Section 1320.5.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      These standards require the respondents to maintain all records, including reports and notifications for at least 5 years. This is consistent with the General Provisions as applied to the standards. EPA believes that the five-year records retention requirement is consistent with the Part 70 permit program and the five-year statute of limitations on which the permit program is based. The retention of records for 5 years allows EPA to establish the compliance history of a source, any pattern of non-compliance and to determine the appropriate level of enforcement action. EPA has found that the most flagrant violators have violations extending beyond 5 years. In addition, EPA would be prevented from pursuing the violators due to the destruction or nonexistence of essential records.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(f) Confidentiality
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Any information submitted to the Agency for which a claim of confidentiality is made will be safeguarded according to the Agency policies set forth in Title 40, chapter 1, part 2, subpart B - Confidentiality of Business Information (see 40 CFR 2; 41 FR 36902, September 1, 1976; amended by 43 FR 40000, September 8, 1978; 43 FR 42251, September 20, 1978; 44 FR 17674, March 23, 1979).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(g) Sensitive Questions
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The reporting and recordkeeping requirements in the standard do not include sensitive questions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5. The Information Collected: Agency Activities, Collection Methodology, and Information Management
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      5(a) Agency Activities 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      EPA conducts the following activities in connection with the acquisition, analysis, storage, and distribution of the required information.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Agency Activities
Observe performance tests, and repeat performance tests if necessary.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Review notifications and reports, including performance test reports, and excess emissions reports, required to be submitted by industry.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Audit facility records.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Input, analyze, and maintain data in the Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO) and ICIS. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      5(b) Collection Methodology and Management
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Following notification, the reviewing authority could inspect the source to determine whether the pollution control devices are properly installed and operated. Performance test reports are used by the Agency to discern a source's initial capability to comply with the emission standards. Ongoing compliance is verified by review of control device design parameters and operating data, and monitoring data. Data and records maintained by the respondents are tabulated and published for use in compliance and enforcement programs. The semiannual reports are used for problem identification, as a check on source operation and maintenance, and for compliance determinations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Information contained in the reports is reported by state and local governments in the ICIS Air database, which is operated and maintained by EPA's Office of Compliance. ICIS is EPA's database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance data for industrial and government-owned facilities. EPA uses ICIS for tracking air pollution compliance and enforcement by local and state regulatory agencies, EPA regional offices and EPA headquarters. EPA and its delegated Authorities can edit, store, retrieve and analyze the data.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       The records required by this regulation must be retained by the owner/operator for 5 years.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      5(c) Small Entity Flexibility
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      A majority of the respondents are large entities (i.e., large businesses). However, the impact on small entities (i.e., small businesses) was taken into consideration during the development of the regulation. As no significant costs are expected from this rule, there are no significant economic impacts on a substantial number of small entities from these amendments.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Due to technical considerations involving the process operations and the types of control equipment employed, the recordkeeping and reporting requirements are the same for both small and large entities. The Agency considers these to be the minimum requirements needed to ensure compliance and, therefore, cannot reduce them further for small entities. To the extent that larger businesses can use economies of scale to reduce their burden, the overall burden will be reduced.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      5(d) Collection Schedule
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The specific frequency for each information collection activity within this request is shown at the end of this document in Tables 1 through 4 of Attachment 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost  -  NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart HHHHH) (Amendments).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Estimating the Burden and Cost of the Collection
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Tables 1 through 4 of Attachment 1 present an itemization of the burden on the respondents subject to the NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing for the recordkeeping and reporting requirements in the first 3 years following promulgation of the amendments to the NESHAP. Tables 5 through 8 of Attachment 2 present an itemization of the Agency burden in the first 3 years following promulgation of the amendments to the NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing. The individual burdens in Tables 1 through 8 of Attachments 1 and 2 are expressed under standardized headings believed to be consistent with the concept of burden under the Paperwork Reduction Act. Where appropriate, specific tasks and major assumptions have been identified. Responses to this information collection are mandatory.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB Control Number.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      6(a) Estimating Respondent Burden
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The average annual incremental burden to industry over the next 3 years is estimated to be 5,801 labor hours, as shown in Tables 1 through 4 of Attachment 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost - NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart HHHHH) (Amendments). These hours are based on Agency studies and background documents from the development of the regulation, Agency knowledge and experience with the NESHAP program, and the previously approved ICR.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      6(b) Estimating Respondent Costs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      The information collection activities for sources subject to these requirements are presented in Tables 1 through 4 of Attachment 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost - NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart HHHHH) (Amendments). The total cost for each respondent activity includes labor costs and capital/startup costs.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (i) Estimating Labor Costs 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      This ICR uses the following labor rates: 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Managerial$143.18 ($68.18+ 110%)  
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Technical$111.80 ($53.24 + 110%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Clerical$48.49 ($23.09 + 110%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, May 2020, "Table 2. Civilian Workers, by occupational and industry group." The rates are from column 1, "Total compensation." The rates have been increased by 110 percent to account for the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (ii) Estimating Capital/Startup and Operation and Maintenance Costs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The type of industry costs associated with the information collection activities in the subject standard are both labor costs which are addressed elsewhere in this ICR and the costs associated with continuous monitoring. The capital/startup costs are one-time costs when a facility becomes subject to the regulation. The annual operation and maintenance costs are the ongoing costs to maintain the monitors and other costs such as photocopying and postage.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The RTR amendments will add a testing requirement requiring facilities complying with the standards by using inorganic HAP emission capture systems and add-on controls to conduct periodic air emissions performance testing. The periodic performance tests will be conducted on a 5-year cycle corresponding to the renewal period for the facility's part 70 operating permits. Facilities that have not been performing periodic performance tests will need to complete a test within year of the amended rule's effective date. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The estimated performance testing costs for measuring PM emissions using EPA Method 5 is $7,000 per add-on control device. The costs assume that emissions are measured at the outlet of the device to measure PM emissions. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The ACA analysis reported that U.S. coating manufacturing facilities generally have fabric filters, cartridge filters, or baghouses to control inorganic HAP emissions. To verify this finding, Part 70 operating permits were collected and reviewed. There are 42 facilities subject to 40 CFR 63 Subpart HHHHH. A review of 42 permits revealed that: in reviewing the title V permits available for this category, out of the 13 facilities reporting metal HAP in the 2017 National Emissions Inventory (NEI), 11 facilities control metal HAP. The total costs for conducting 13 control device performance tests is shown in the table in section 6(b)(iii) below.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (iii) Capital/Startup vs. Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Costs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Emissions compliance testing costs are treated as capital costs because facilities routinely contract with a testing company to perform the testing. No O&M costs are be assumed to be associated with the periodic testing requirement.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The total capital/startup costs for this ICR are $91,000. This is the total of column D in the above table. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      6(c) Estimating Agency Burden and Cost
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The only costs to the Agency are those costs associated with analysis of the reported information. EPA's overall compliance and enforcement program includes activities such as the examination of records maintained by the respondents, periodic inspection of sources of emissions, and the publication and distribution of collected information. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The average annual Agency cost during the 3 years of the ICR is estimated to be $7,500. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      This cost is based on the average hourly labor rate as follows:

Managerial$68.37 (GS-13, Step 5, $42.73 + 60%) 
Technical$50.72 (GS-12, Step 1, $31.70 + 60%)
Clerical$27.46 (GS-6, Step 3, $17.16 + 60%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2020 General Schedule, which excludes locality rates of pay. The rates have been increased by 60 percent to account for the benefit packages available to government employees. Details upon which this estimate is based appear at the end of this document in Tables 5 through 8 of Attachment 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost  -  NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart HHHHH) (Amendments).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Based on our research for this ICR, on average over the next 3 years, approximately 42 existing respondents will be subject to the standard. It is estimated that no additional respondents per year will become subject. The overall average number of respondents, as shown in the table below, is 42 per year. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The number of respondents is calculated using the following table that addresses the 3 years covered by this ICR.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (i) Respondent Tally
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The average annual labor hour burden for all respondents, over next 3 years, is 1,720 hours (per year) at an average annual cost of $192,000 (per year). Details regarding these estimates may be found in Tables 1 through 4 of Attachment 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost - NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart HHHHH) (Amendments).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      We assume that burdens for managerial tasks take 5% of the time required for technical tasks because the typical tasks for managers are to review and approve reports. Clerical burdens are assumed to take 10% of the time required for technical tasks because the typical duties of clerical staff are to proofread the reports, make copies and maintain records.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Furthermore, the annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 75.9 hours per response.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The total annual capital/startup and O&M costs to the regulated entity are $91,000 in the first year of this ICR. The cost calculations are detailed in Section 6(b)(iii), Capital/Startup vs. Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Costs.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                  
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (ii) The Agency Tally
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The average annual Agency burden and cost over the next 3 years is estimated to be 53 hours (per year) at an average annual cost of $2,500. Details regarding these estimates may be found in Tables 5 through 8 of Attachment 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost  -  NESHAP for Miscellaneous Coating Manufacturing (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart HHHHH) (Amendments).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      We assume that burdens for managerial tasks take 5 percent of the time required for technical tasks because the typical tasks for managers are to review and approve reports. Clerical burdens are assumed to take 10 percent of the time required for technical tasks because the typical duties of clerical staff are to proofread the reports, make copies and maintain records.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      6(f) Reasons for Change in Burden
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      There is an increase in the labor hours per respondent in this ICR as compared to the previous ICR. This situation is due to four considerations: 1) increased time in year one to become familiar with the amended rules, 2) increased time in years one to three for keeping records of operating hours; and 3) time required for conducting a performance test and reporting the results.
      
      There is an increase in the capital/startup costs as calculated in section 6(b)(iii) compared with the costs in the previous ICR. The requirement for periodic performance testing requires 13 existing facilities to conduct a performance test on 13 add-on control devices, with an estimate of one test being repeated. These facilities are not currently required to perform periodic testing as a condition of their part 70 operating permits.
