Characterization/
Abstract
This
information
collection
request
is
to
allow
the
Agency
to
continue
requiring
regulated
companies
to
collect
and
report
necessary
information
in
order
to
determine
that
such
affected
companies
are
complying
with
NSPS
Subpart
K.
Companies
subject
to
the
requirements
of
NSPS
Subpart
K
are
required
to
collect
and
maintain
in
their
facility
logs
the
following
information:
a
record
of
the
petroleum
liquid
stored,
the
period
of
storage
and
the
maximum
true
vapor
pressure
of
that
liquid
during
the
respective
storage
period.
This
information
is
collected
when
the
petroleum
liquid
within
the
storage
vessel
changes.
This
information
is
submitted
to
delegated
state
or
local
environmental
agencies.
The
information
will
be
used
to
determine
if
the
regulated
company
is
complying
with
NSPS
Subpart
K.
To
be
accessible
to
federal,
State
and
Local
agencies,
data
will
be
entered
into
the
AIRS
database.
The
cost
of
collecting
this
information
from
220
respondents
is
$
37,226
per
year.
2
In
general,
all
NSPS
standards
require
initial
notifications,
performance
tests,
and
periodic
reports.
Owners
or
operators
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,
are
required,
in
general,
of
all
sources
subject
to
NSPS.

Any
owner
or
operator
subject
to
the
provisions
of
this
part
shall
maintain
a
file
of
this
information
and
retain
the
file
for
at
least
two
years
following
the
date
of
such
measurements,

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
EPA
Regional
Office.

The
New
Source

NSPS
Subpart
K
was
proposed
on
June
11,
1973
and
promulgated
on
March
8,
1974.
These
Standards
Of
Performance
For
Storage
Vessels
For
Petroleum
Liquids,
NSPS
Subpart
K
applies
to
facilities
that
store
petroleum
liquids
in:

$
Storage
vessels
with
petroleum
liquids
which
have
a
storage
capacity
greater
than
151,416
liters
(

gallons),
and
commences
construction
or
modification
after
June
11,
1973,
and
prior
to
May
19,
1978.

Affected
facilities
that
are
not
subject
to
the
Standards
Of
Performance
For
Storage
Vessels
For
Petroleum
Liquids,
NSPS
Subpart
K
are:

$
Storage
vessels
of
petroleum
or
condensate
stored,
processed,
and/
or
treated
at
a
drilling
and
production
facility
prior
to
custody
transfer.

This
information
is
being
collected
to
assure
compliance
with
40
CFR
Part
60,
Subpart
K.

Approximately
5,500
sources
are
currently
subject
to
the
standard.
It
is
further
assumed
that
there
is
an
average
of
25
affected
facilities
per
plant
or
location
(
220
respondents).
There
will
be
no
new
affected
facilities
added
to
this
New
Source
Performance
Standard.
Storage
vessels
built,
reconstructed
or
modified
after
May
19,
1978
are
subject
to
the
NSPS
Subpart
Ka
or
NSPS
Subpart
Kb
requirements.
The
number
of
respondents
was
determined
from
a
data
pull
of
the
Aerometric
Information
Retrieval
System
(
AIRS)
Facility
Subsystem
(
AFS),
discussions
with
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(
EPA)

staff
working
on
projects
relating
to
the
petroleum
refinery
sector.

2.
Need
for
and
Use
of
the
Collection
2(
a)
Need/
Authority
for
the
Collection
The
EPA
is
charged
under
Section
111
of
the
Clean
Air
Act,
as
amended,
to
establish
standards
of
performance
for
new
stationary
sources
that
reflect:
4
.
.
.
application
of
the
best
technological
system
of
continuous
emissions
reduction
which
(
taking
into
consideration
the
cost
of
achieving
such
emissions
reduction,
or
any
nonair
quality
health
and
environmental
impact
and
energy
requirements)
the
Administrator
determines
has
been
adequately
demonstrated
[
Section
111(
a)(
l)].

The
Agency
refers
to
this
charge
as
selecting
the
best
demonstrated
technology
(
BDT).

Section
111
also
requires
that
the
Administrator
review
and,
if
appropriate,
revise
such
standards
every
four
years.

In
addition,
Section
114(
a)
states
that
the
Administrator
may
require
any
owner
or
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
a
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
additional
information
as
the
Administrator
may
reasonably
require.

In
the
Administrator's
judgment,
volatile
organic
compounds
(
VOCs)
emissions
from
5
Storage
Vessels
For
Petroleum
Liquids
cause
or
contribute
to
air
pollution
that
may
reasonably
be
anticipated
to
endanger
public
health
or
welfare.
Therefore,
the
NSPS
was
promulgated
for
this
source
category
at
40
CFR
Part
60
Subpart
K.

2(
b)
Practical
Utility/
Users
of
the
Data
The
control
of
emissions
of
volatile
organic
compounds
from
NSPS
Subpart
K­
Standards
Of
Performance
For
Storage
Vessels
For
Petroleum
Liquids
requires
not
only
the
installation
of
properly
designed
equipment,
but
also
the
operation
and
maintenance
of
that
equipment.

Emissions
of
volatile
organic
compounds
from
NSPS
Subpart
K­
Standards
Of
Performance
For
Storage
Vessels
For
Petroleum
Liquids
are
the
result
of
operation
of
storage
vessels
with
petroleum
liquids.
These
standards
rely
on
the
reduction
of
volatile
organic
compound
emissions
by
vapor
recovery,
floating
roof
or
their
equivalents.
The
required
notifications
are
used
to
inform
the
Agency
or
delegated
authority
when
a
source
became
subject
to
the
standard.
The
reviewing
authority
may
then
inspect
the
source
to
check
if
the
pollution
control
devices
are
properly
installed
and
operated
and
the
standard
is
being
met.
The
General
Provisions
of
40
Code
of
Federal
Regulations
§
60.7
requires
initial
reports
to
be
filed
with
the
Agency
or
the
authorized
state
or
local
authority.

The
Subpart
K
standards
require
the
owner/
operator
to
document
(
recordkeeping)
the
activities
of;
the
storage
period,
the
maximum
true
vapor
pressure,
and
the
type
of
petroleum
liquid
stored.
This
information
is
recorded
only
when
a
petroleum
liquid
is
changed
in
the
storage
vessel.
Under
the
standard,
the
data
collected
by
the
affected
facility
must
be
retained
at
the
facility
for
a
minimum
of
two
years,
and
available
to
the
Administrator
either
on
request
or
by
inspection.

The
information
generated
by
the
monitoring,
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements
6
described
in
this
ICR
is
used
by
the
Agency
to
ensure
that
facilities
affected
by
the
NSPS
regulations
continue
to
operate
the
control
equipment
and
achieve
compliance
with
the
regulation.

Adequate
monitoring,
recordkeeping,
and
reporting
are
necessary
to
ensure
compliance
with
these
standards,
as
required
by
the
Clean
Air
Act.
The
information
collected
from
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements
is
also
used
for
targeting
inspections,
and
is
of
sufficient
quality
to
be
used
as
evidence
in
court.

3.
Nonduplication,
Consultations,
and
Other
Collection
Criteria
The
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requested
is
required
under
40
CFR
Part
60
Subpart
K.

3(
a)
Nonduplication
If
the
standard
has
not
been
delegated,
the
information
is
sent
to
the
appropriate
Environmental
Protection
Agency's
Regional
Office.
Otherwise,
the
information
is
sent
directly
to
the
delegated
State
or
Local
Agency.
If
a
State
or
Local
Agency
has
adopted
their
own
similar
regulation
to
implement
the
Federal
Regulation,
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
Standard.
Therefore,
no
duplication
exists.

3(
b)
Public
Notice
Required
Prior
to
ICR
Submission
to
OMB
An
announcement
of
a
public
comment
period
for
the
renewal
of
this
ICR
was
published
in
the
Federal
Register
on
April
18,
2000.

3(
c)
Consultations
No
comments
were
received
on
the
burden
published
in
the
Federal
Register.

3(
d)
Effects
of
Less
Frequent
Collection
7
Less
frequent
information
collection
would
decrease
the
margin
of
assurance
that
facilities
are
continuing
to
meet
the
required
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
this
standard
was
collected
on
a
less
frequent
schedule,
the
likelihood
of
detecting
poor
operation
and
maintenance
of
control
equipment
and
noncompliance
would
decrease.

3(
e)
General
Guidelines
None
of
these
reporting
or
recordkeeping
requirements
violate
any
of
the
regulations
established
by
OMB
in
5
CFR
§
1320.6.

3(
f)
Confidentiality
The
required
information
consists
of
emissions
data
and
other
information
that
have
been
determined
not
to
be
private.
However,
any
information
submitted
to
the
Agency
for
which
a
claim
of
confidentiality
is
made
will
be
safeguarded
according
to
the
Agency
policies

5(
b)
Collection
Methodology
and
Management
Following
notification
of
startup,
the
reviewing
authority
might
inspect
the
source
to
10
determine
whether
the
pollution
control
devices
are
properly
installed
and
operated.
The
Agency
uses
the
performance
test
reports
to
discern
a
source's
initial
capability
to
comply
with
the
emission
standard,
and
note
the
operating
conditions
under
which
compliance
was
achieved.
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
entered
into
AIRS
which
is
operated
and
maintained
by
EPA's
Office
of
Air
Quality
Planning
and
Standards.
AIRS
is
EPA's
database
for
the
collection,
maintenance,
and
retrieval
of
compliance
and
annual
emission
inventory
data
for
more
than
100,000
industrial
and
government­
owned
facilities.
The
EPA
uses
AIRS
for
tracking
air
pollution
compliance
and
enforcement
by
Local
and
State
regulatory
agencies,
and
EPA
Regional
Offices
and
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
or
operator
for
two
years.

5(
c)
Small
Entity
Flexibility
There
are
few
small
businesses
affected
by
this
standard.
The
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements
were
selected
within
the
context
of
this
specific
Subpart
and
the
specific
process
equipment
and
pollutant(
s).
The
impact
on
small
businesses
was
accounted
for
in
the
regulation
development.
The
requirements
reflect
the
burden
on
small
businesses.
Even
though,
the
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements
are
the
same
for
small
and
larger
businesses.
To
the
extent
that
larger
businesses
can
use
economies
of
scale
to
reduce
their
burden,
the
overall
burden
will
be
reduced.
The
Agency
considers
these
requirements
the
minimum
needed
to
ensure
11
compliance
and,
therefore,
cannot
reduce
them
further
for
small
businesses.

Burden
The
average
annual

to
industry
over
the
next
three
years
from
these
recordkeeping

requirements
is
estimated
at
678

documents
from
the
development
of
the
standards
or

methods,

Agency
knowledge
and
experience
with

This
ICR
uses
$
54.94

for
Technical
labor
cost.
This

Estimating
Capital
and
Operations
and
Maintenance
Costs
The
only
type
of
industry
cost
associated
with
the
information
collection
activity
in
the
standards
is
labor
cost.
There
are
no
capital
or
operations
and
maintenance
costs.
The
capital
startup
costs
are
a
one
time
cost
when
a
facility
becomes
subject
to
the
standard.
The
annual
operations
and
maintenance
costs
are
the
ongoing
costs
to
maintain
the
emission

The
only
Federal
costs
are
user
costs
associated
with
analysis
of
the
reported
information.

Publication
and
distribution
of
the
information
are
part
of
the
AIRS
program.
Periodic
inspection
of
affected

includes
the
examination
of

of
the
EPA's
overall
compliance
and
enforcement
program.

The
average
annual
Federal

during
the
three
years
of
the
ICR
is
estimated
to
be
$
2,154
($
