Characterization/
Abstract
The
New
Source
Performance
Standards
(
NSPS)
for
the
regulations
published
at
40
CFR
part
60,
subpart
F
were
proposed
on
August
17,
1971,
promulgated
on
December
23,
1971,
and
revised
on
December
14,
1988.
These
regulations
apply
to
the
following
facilities
in
portland
cement
plants:
kilns,
clinker
coolers,
raw
mill
systems,
raw
mill
dryers,
raw
material
storage,
clinker
storage,
finished
product
storage,
conveyor
transfer
points,
bagging
and
bulk
loading
and
unloading
systems.
New
facilities
include
those
that
commenced
construction,
modification
or
reconstruction
after
the
date
of
proposal.
This
information
is
being
collected
to
assure
compliance
with
40
CFR
part
60,
subpart
F.

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,
and
are
required
of
all
sources
subject
to
NSPS.

Any
owner
or
operator
subject
to
the
provisions
of
this
part
shall
maintain
a
file
of
these
measurements,
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
United
States
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(
EPA)
regional
office.

Approximately
118
sources
are
currently
subject
to
the
regulation,
and
it
is
estimated
that
no
new
sources
will
become
subject
to
the
regulation
in
the
next
three
years.
However,
we
do
expect
that
a
small
percentage
of
existing
sources
will
undergo
modifications
or
reconstruction
such
that
they
will
have
to
do
the
initial
notifications
and
performance
testing
required
by
the
standard.
We
estimate
that
two
(
2)
existing
sources
per
year
over
the
next
three
years
will
be
required
to
resubmit
notifications
and
retest
as
a
result
of
a
modification
or
reconstruction.
The
previous
Information
Collection
Request
(
ICR)
estimated
that
there
were
107
existing
sources.
The
increase
in
the
number
of
respondents
in
this
ICR
compared
to
the
previous
ICR
is
due
to
an
error
in
estimating
the
number
of
sources
in
the
previous
ICR.
The
previous
ICR
also
estimated
that
four
(
4)
new
sources
would
be
subject
to
the
regulation
per
year
over
the
next
three
years.
The
decrease
in
the
growth
rate
from
four
(
4)
new
sources
per
year
in
the
previous
ICR
to
no
2
new
sources
per
year
in
this
ICR
is
due
to
a
slowdown
in
the
United
States
economy
which
is
directly
related
to
the
demand
for
portland
cement.
See
Section
3(
c)
Consultations.

The
Office
of
Management
and
Budget
(
OMB)
approved
the
currently
active
ICR
without
any
"
Terms
of
Clearance."

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
(
CAA),
as
amended,
to
establish
standards
of
performance
for
new
stationary
sources
that
reflect:

.
.
.
application
of
the
best
technological
system
of
continuous
emissions
reduction
which
(
taking
into
consideration
the
cost
of
achieving
such
emissions
reduction,
or
any
non­
air
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
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.
3
In
the
Administrator's
judgment,
particulate
matter
emissions
from
portland
cement
plants
cause
or
contribute
to
air
pollution
that
may
reasonably
be
anticipated
to
endanger
public
health
or
welfare.
Therefore,
the
NSPS
were
promulgated
for
this
source
category
at
40
CFR
part
60,
subpart
F.

2(
b)
Practical
Utility/
Users
of
the
Data
The
control
of
particulate
matter
emissions
from
portland
cement
plants
requires
not
only
the
installation
of
properly
designed
equipment,
but
also
the
operation
and
maintenance
of
that
equipment.
Emissions
of
particulate
matter
from
portland
cement
plants
are
the
result
of
the
operation
of
the
affected
facilities.
The
subject
standards
are
achieved
by
the
capture
of
particulate
emissions
using
a
baghouse
or
electrostatic
precipitator.

The
notifications
required
in
the
applicable
regulations
are
used
to
inform
the
Agency
or
delegated
authority
when
a
source
becomes
subject
to
the
requirements
of
the
regulations.
The
reviewing
authority
may
then
inspect
the
source
to
check
if
the
pollution
control
devices
are
properly
installed
and
operated
and
leaks
are
being
detected
and
repaired
and
the
regulations
are
being
met.
Performance
test
reports
are
needed
as
these
are
the
Agency's
record
of
a
source's
initial
capability
to
comply
with
the
emission
standards,
and
serve
as
a
record
of
the
operating
conditions
under
which
compliance
was
achieved.

The
semiannual
reports
are
used
for
problem
identification,
as
a
check
on
source
operation
and
maintenance,
and
for
compliance
determinations.
The
information
generated
by
the
monitoring,
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements
described
in
this
ICR
is
used
by
the
Agency
to
ensure
that
facilities
affected
by
the
standard
continue
to
operate
the
control
equipment
in
compliance
with
the
regulation.
Adequate
monitoring,
recordkeeping,
and
reporting
are
necessary
to
ensure
compliance
with
the
applicable
regulations,
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
requested
recordkeeping
and
reporting
are
required
under
40
CFR
part
60,
subpart
F.

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
4
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
(
69
FR
29718)
on
May
25,
2004.
No
comments
were
received
on
the
burden
published
in
the
Federal
Register.

3(
c)
Consultations
In
estimating
the
burden
associated
with
this
standard,
EPA
reviewed
economic
information
available
on
the
Portland
Cement
Association
website
(
www.
pca.
org).
In
addition,
we
conducted
a
data
query
of
portland
cement
plants
included
in
EPA's
Enforcement
and
Compliance
History
Online
(
ECHO).
Based
on
the
information
available
from
both
PCA
and
ECHO,
we
estimate
that
there
are
118
existing
sources
subject
to
this
regulation
and
that
no
new
source
will
be
subject
to
this
standard
over
the
next
three
years.
However,
we
do
estimate
that
two
(
2)
existing
sources
will
be
modified
or
reconstructed
such
that
the
sources
will
be
required
to
resubmit
initial
notifications
and
retest.
The
estimated
increase
in
the
number
of
existing
plants
and
the
estimated
decrease
in
the
growth
rate
compared
to
the
previous
ICR
is
due
to
the
availability
of
more
reliable
data.

3(
d)
Effects
of
Less
Frequent
Collection
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
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
at
5
CFR
part
1320,
section
1320.5.

3(
f)
Confidentiality
Any
information
submitted
to
the
Agency
for
which
a
claim
of
confidentiality
is
made
will
5
be
safeguarded
according
to
the
Agency
policies
set
forth
in

Electronic
Reporting
Currently,
sources
are
using
monitoring
equipment
that
provides
automated
parameter
data,
e.
g.,
continuous
opacity
monitoring.
Although
personnel
at
the
affected
facility
must
evaluate
the
data,
this
type
of
monitoring
equipment
has
significantly
reduced
the
burden
associated
with
monitoring
and
recordkeeping.
In
addition,
some
regulatory
agencies
are
setting
up
electronic
reporting
systems
to
allow
sources
to
report
electronically
which
is
reducing
the
reporting
burden.
However,
electronic
reporting
systems
are
still
not
widely
used
by
the
regulatory
agencies.
It
is
estimated
that
approximately
10
percent
of
the
respondents
use
electronic
reporting.

5(
b)
Collection
Methodology
and
Management
Following
notification
of
startup,
the
reviewing
authority
might
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
standard.
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
the
AFS
which
is
operated
and
maintained
by
EPA's
Office
of
Compliance.
AFS
is
EPA's
database
for
the
collection,
maintenance,
and
retrieval
of
compliance
data
for
approximately
125,000
industrial
and
government­
owned
facilities.
EPA
uses
the
AFS
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
or
operator
for
two
(
2)
years.

5(
c)
Small
Entity
Flexibility
A
majority
of
the
affected
facilities
are
large
entities
(
e.
g.,
large
businesses).
However,
the
impact
on
small
entities
(
i.
e.,
small
businesses)
was
taken
into
consideration
during
the
development
of
the
regulation.
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
requirements
the
minimum
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.

of
the

are
rounded
to
show
the
cost
in
thousands
of
dollars.
The
continuous
monitoring
costs
that
are
included
in
this
section
consist
only
of
those
capital/
startup
and
O&
M
costs
that
a
source
incurs
as
a
result
of
the
standard.
Some
continuous
monitoring
costs
may
not
be
included
in
this
section.
For
instance,
if
a
particular
industry
typically
utilizes
a
control
device
that
must
have
a
continuous
monitor
(
e.
g.,
temperature,
pressure
drop,
etc.)
to
function
properly,
and
the
recordation
of
additional
measurements
beyond
the
minimum
are
required
by
the
standard,
then
there
is
no
11
capital/
startup
or
O&
M
cost,
but
there
is
a
labor
cost
to
record
the
additional
readings.
Such
a
cost
would
not
appear
in
this
section,
but

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
three
years
of
the
ICR
is
estimated
to
be
$
46,943.

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

Managerial
$
54.66
(
GS­
13,
Step

$
34.16

Clerical
$
21.95
(
GS­

$

These
rates
are
from
the
Office
of
Personnel
Management
(

which
excludes

6(

Estimating
the
Respondent
Universe
and
Total
Burden
and
Costs
Based
on
our
research
for
this
ICR,
approximately
118
existing
sources
are
currently
subject
to
the
standard.
It
is
estimated
that
no
new
source
will
become
subject
to
the
standard
over
the
next
three
years.
However,
we
do
estimate
that
two
(
2)
existing
sources
will
be
modified
or
reconstructed
such
that
they
will
be
required
to
resubmit
initial
notifications
and
retest.

Number
of
respondents
is
calculated
using
the
following
table
which
addresses
the
three
years
covered
by
this
ICR.

Reasons
for
Change
in
Burden
The
increase
in
burden
from
the
most
recently
approved
ICR
is
due
to
an
adjustment.
The
adjustment
is
primarily
due
to
an
increase
in
the
number
of
existing
affected
sources
from
113
to
118.
The
estimated
increase
in
the
number
of
existing
plants
from
the
previous
ICR
is
due
to
the
availability
of
better
data
provided
by
the
Portland
Cement
Associations
website
and
EPA's
Enforcement
and
Compliance
History
Online.
In
addition,
the
number
of
hours
estimated
to
prepare
the
semiannual
report
was
increased
from
16
hours
to
24
hours.

Burden
Statement
The
annual
public
reporting
and
recordkeeping
burden
for
this
collection
of
information
is
estimated
to
average
64.4
hours
per
response.
Burden
means
the
total
time,
effort,
or
financial
resources
expended
by
persons
to
generate,
maintain,
retain,
or
disclose
or
provide
information
to
or
for
a
Federal
agency.
This
includes
the
time
needed
to
review
instructions;
develop,
acquire,
install,
and
utilize
technology
and
systems
for
the
purposes
of
collecting,
validating,
and
verifying
information,
processing
and
maintaining
information,
and
disclosing

sources;
complete
and
review
the
collection
of
information;
and
transmit
or
otherwise
