    Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Semiconductor Manufacturing (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart BBBBB) were proposed on May 8, 2002; and promulgated on May 22, 
2003. These regulations apply to both existing facilities and new 
facilities that either emits, or has the potential to emit, considering 
controls, in the aggregate, any single hazardous air pollutants (HAP) 
at a rate of 10 tons per year (tpy) or more or any combination of HAP 
at a rate of 25 tpy or more. New facilities include those that either 
commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after the date 
of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance 
with 40 CFR part 63, subpart BBBBB.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Semiconductor manufacturing 
facilities.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart BBBBB).
    Estimated number of respondents: Approximately one (total).
    Frequency of response: Semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 41 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 
CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $5,450 (per year), which includes $550 in 
annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in burden from the 
most-recently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory 
of Approved Burdens. This is due to two considerations: (1) The 
regulations have

[[Page 29309]]

not changed over the past three years and are not anticipated to change 
over the next three years; and (2) the growth rate for this industry is 
very low or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the 
overall burden. Since there are no changes in the regulatory 
requirements and there is no significant industry growth, there are 
also no changes in the capital/startup or operation and maintenance 
(O&M) costs.

Director, Regulatory Support Division.
