of
Proposal:
AE
developed
an
Updated
Recreation
Plan
(
plan)
to
comply
with
article
417

data
and
addresses
recreation
use
as
well
as
the
adequacy
of
facilities.
Specifically,
the
update
addresses
safety
and
security,
navigational
problems,
swimming
use,
user
demand
patterns
for
boating
use,
primitive
camping,
and
privileged
permit
leases.
AE
states
that
the
current
recreational
facilities
are
meeting
the
demonstrated
demand
for
recreation
at
the
project
and
no
changes
are
proposed
in
the
update.

Title:
NESHAP
for
Mercury
(

part
61,
subpart
E)
OMB
Control
Number
2060
 
0097,
EPA
ICR
Number
0113.08.
This
is
a
request
to
renew
an
existing,
approved
collection
that
is
scheduled
to
expire
on
June
30,
2003.
Under
OMB
regulations,
the
Agency
may
continue
to
conduct
or
sponsor
the
collection
of
information
while
this
submission
is
pending
at
OMB.
Abstract:
The
NESHAP
for
Mercury,
published
at
40
CFR
part
61,
subpart
E,
were
proposed
on
December
7,
1971,
promulgated
on
April
6,
1973,
and
amended
on
October
14,
1975
and
March
19,
1987.
These
standards
apply
to
all
stationary
sources
which
process
mercury
ore
to
recover
mercury,
use
mercury
chlor­
alkali
cells
to
produce
chlorine
gas
and
alkali
metal
hydroxide,
and
incinerate
or
dry
wastewater
treatment
plant
sludge.
Approximately
107
sources
(
100
sludge
incineration
and
drying
plants
and
seven
mercurycell
chlor­
alkali
plants)
are
currently
subject
to
the
standard;
and
no
additional
sources
are
expected
to
become
subject
to
the
standard
in
the
next
three
years.
Mercury
is
the
pollutant
regulated
under
this
standard.
This
information
is
being
collected
to
assure
compliance
with
40
CFR
part
61,
subpart
E.
Owners
or
operators
of
affected
facilities
described
must
make
the
following
one­
time­
only
reports:
Notification
of
the
date
of
construction
or
reconstruction;
notification
of
the
anticipated
and
actual
dates
of
startup;
notification
of
any
physical
or
operational
change
to
an
existing
facility
which
may
increase
the
regulated
pollutant
emission
rate;
notification
of
the
date
of
the
initial
performance
test;
and
the
results
of
the
initial
performance
test.
These
facilities
must
also
maintain
records
of
performance
test
results,
startups,
shutdowns,
and
malfunctions.
In
order
to
ensure
compliance
with
the
standards,
adequate
recordkeeping
and
reporting
is
necessary.
This
information
enables
the
Agency
to:
(
1)
Identify
the
sources
subject
to
the
standard;
(
2)
ensure
initial
compliance
with
emission
limits;
and
(
3)
verify
continuous
compliance
with
the
standard.
A
written
report
of
each
period
for
which
hourly
monitored
parameters
fall
outside
their
established
limits
is
required
semiannually
for
mercury­
cell
chlor­
alkali
facilities.
Reporting
and
recordkeeping
is
mandatory
under
section
114
of
the
Clean
Air
Act
as
amended
in
40
CFR
part
61.
Records
of
emission
test
results
and
other
data
needed
to
determine
total
emissions
will
be
maintained
at
the
source
and
made
available
for
inspection
for
a
minimum
of
two
years.
An
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.
The
OMB
Control
Numbers
for
EPA's
regulations
are
listed
in
40
CFR
part
9

chapter
15,

are
identified
on
the
form
and/
or

if
applicable.

of
Approved
ICR
Burdens.
This
decrease
in
burden
from
the
most
recently
approved
ICR
is
due
to
a
decrease
in
the
number
of
sources.
We
have
determined
that
the
number
of
sources
currently
subject
to
this
standard
has
decreased
based
on
the
most
recent
data
available
on
the
Air
Facility
System
database
for
NESHAP
respondent
cost
is
due
to
a
labor
rate
change
where
the
rate
was
increased;
however,
the
total
overall
cost
is
reduced
due
to
the
smaller
number
of
sources
covered
by
the
rule.

This
is
a

to
renew
an

collection
that
is

to
expire
on

30,
2003.
Under

Abstract:
The
New
Source
Performance
Standards
(
NSPS)
for
electric
arc
furnaces
were
proposed
on
October
21,
1974
(
39
FR
37466)
and
promulgated
on
September
23,
1975
(
40
CFR
43850).
These
standards
apply
to
the
following
affected
facilities
in
steel
plants
that
produce
carbon,
alloy,
or
specialty
steels:
Electric
arc
furnaces
(
EAFs)
and
dust
handling
systems
commencing
construction,
modification
or
reconstruction
after
the
date
of
proposal
and
on
or
before
August
17,
1983.
A
review
of
subpart
AA
in
1980
resulted
in
the
promulgation
of
a
new
standard
(
NSPS,
subpart
AAa).
The
review
of
NSPS
subpart
AA
found
that
fugitive
emissions
capture
technology
had
improved
since
promulgation
of
NSPS
subpart
AA,
and
that
argonoxygen
decarburization
(
AOD)
vessels
are
a
significant
source
of
particulates
in
specialty
steel
shops.
NSPS,
subpart
AAa
was
proposed
on
August
17,
1983
and
promulgated
on
October
31,
1984.
The
new
standard
established
new
standards
applicable
to
EAFs,
AOD
vessels,
and
dust
handling
systems
constructed,
modified,
or
reconstructed
after
August
17,
1983.
On
March
2,
1999,
the
Agency
promulgated
a
direct
final
rule
to
amend
subparts
AA
and
AAa
in
response
to
a
petition
made
by
the
Common
Sense
Initiative
Council,
established
under
a
charter
approved
pursuant
to
the
Federal
Advisory
Committee
Act
(
FACA),
which
approved
daily
visible
emissions
observations
as
an
alternative
to
static
pressure
monitoring

an
EAF
