Characterization/
Abstract
The
National
Emissions
Standards
for
Hazardous
Air
Pollutants
(
NESHAP)
for
Friction
Materials
Manufacturing
(
40
CFR
part
63,
subpart
QQQQQ),
were
proposed
on
October
4,
2001,
(
66
FR
50768)
and
promulgated
on
October
18,
2002
(
67
FR
64506).
Respondents
are
owners
or
operators
of
each
new,
reconstructed,
or
existing
affected
source.
Friction
materials
manufacturing
facilities
manufacture
friction
material
using
a
solvent­
based
process.
Friction
material
is
subsequently
used
to
manufacture
friction
products
that
include,
but
are
not
limited
to,
disc
brake
pucks,
disc
brake
pads,
brake
linings,
brake
shoes,
brake
segments,
brake
blocks,
brake
discs,
clutch
facings,
and
clutches.
The
NESHAP
contains
an
emission
limitation
for
solvent
mixers
at
friction
materials
manufacturing
facilities.
Solvent
mixers
are
the
affected
source.

A
friction
materials
manufacturing
facility
is
only
subject
to
the
regulation
if
it
is
a
major
source
of
hazardous
air
pollutant
(
HAP)
emissions,
and
emits
or
has
the
potential
to
emit
any
single
HAP
at
a
rate
of
9.07
megagrams
(
10
tons)
or
more
per
year
or
any
combination
of
HAP
at
a
rate
of
22.68
megagrams
(
25
tons)
or
more
per
year.
Consistent
with
the
General
Provisions
for
National
Emission
Standards
for
Hazardous
Air
Pollutants
(
NESHAP)
for
Source
Categories
(
40
CFR
part
63,
subpart
A),
respondents
do
not
include
the
owner
or
operator
of
any
facility
that
is
not
a
major
source
of
HAP
emissions
or
any
facility
that
does
not
operate
affected
solvent
mixers,
even
if
the
facility
is
a
major
source.

The
friction
materials
manufacturing
NESHAP
require
respondents
to
reduce
the
total
organic
HAP
emissions
from
their
solvent
mixers
by
preventing
emission
of
no
more
than
15
percent
(
based
on
a
7­
day
block
average)
of
the
HAP
solvent
that
is
loaded
into
the
solvent
mixer.
Respondents
will
likely
use
a
solvent
recovery
system
to
reduce
the
amount
of
HAP
solvent
that
is
emitted.
To
show
compliance
with
the
HAP
solvent
emission
limitation,
respondents
are
required
to
use
a
weight
measurement
system
(
e.
g.,
floor
scale
system
for
measuring
weight
of
liquid
contained
in
a
small
tank)
to
measure
and
record
the
weight
of
HAP
solvent
loaded
into
the
solvent
mixer
and
the
weight
of
HAP
solvent
recovered
for
each
mix
batch.
No
performance
testing
is
required.
However,
respondents
are
required
to
conduct
an
initial
compliance
demonstration,
which
consists
of
measuring
and
recording
the
weight
of
HAP
solvent
loaded
into
each
solvent
mixer,
and
the
weight
of
HAP
solvent
recovered
for
each
mix
batch
over
the
first
2
seven
consecutive
days
after
the
compliance
date.
Respondents
also
must
maintain
records
of
specific
information
needed
to
determine
that
the
standards
are
being
achieved
and
maintained.

In
general,
all
NESHAP
standards
require
initial
notifications,
performance
tests,
and
periodic
reports
by
the
owners/
operators
of
the
affected
facilities.
They
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
affected
facilities
subject
to
NESHAP.
Semiannual
reports
for
periods
of
operation
during
which
the
emission
limitation
is
exceeded
(
or
reports
certifying
that
no
exceedances
have
occurred)
also
are
required.

Based
on
our
consultations
with
industry
representatives,
there
is
an
average
of
1.75
solvent
mixers
at
each
plant
site
and
that
each
plant
site
has
only
one
respondent
(
i.
e.,
the
owner/
operator
of
the
plant
site).

Approximately
four
respondents
are
currently
subject
to
the
regulation,
and
it
is
estimated
that
no
additional
respondents
per
year
will
become
subject
to
the
regulation
in
the
next
three
years.

The
Office
of
Management
and
Budget
(
OMB)
approved
the
current
Information
Collection
Request
(
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
112
of
the
Clean
Air
Act,
as
amended,
to
establish
standards
of
performance
for
each
category
or
subcategory
of
major
sources
and
area
sources
of
hazardous
air
pollutants.
These
standards
are
applicable
to
new
or
existing
sources
of
hazardous
air
pollutants
and
shall
require
the
maximum
degree
of
emission
reduction.
In
addition,
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
3
(
G)
provide
such
other
information
as
the
Administrator
may
reasonably
require.

In
the
Administrator's
judgment,
HAP
emissions
from
affected
solvent
mixers
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
QQQQQ.

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
Clean
Air
Act.
The
collected
information
is
also
used
for
targeting
inspections
and
as
evidence
in
legal
proceedings.

Performance
tests
are
required
in
order
to
determine
an
affected
facility's
initial
capability
to
comply
with
the
emission
standard.
Continuous
emission
monitors
are
used
to
ensure
compliance
with
the
standard
at
all
times.
During
the
performance
test
a
record
of
the
operating
parameters
under
which
compliance
was
achieved
may
be
recorded
and
used
to
determine
compliance
in
place
of
a
continuous
emission
monitor.

The
notifications
required
in
the
standard
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
standard
is
being
met.
The
performance
test
may
also
be
observed.

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
QQQQQ.

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
agencies
can
be
sent
to
the
Administrator
in
lieu
of
the
report
required
by
the
Federal
standards.
Therefore,
no
duplication
exists.

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
69909)
on
December
1,
2004.
No
comments
were
received
on
the
burden
published
in
the
Federal
Register.

3(
c)
Consultations
For
this
information
collection,
we
referenced
the
most
recent
ICR,
consulted
with
the
preparer
of
the
active
ICR,
and
used
several
different
resources
to
obtain
the
most
recent
data
available.
We
accessed
the
Air
Facility
System
(
AFS)
database
as
maintained
by
the
Office
of
Compliance.
We
reviewed
information
available
from
the
United
States
Census
Bureau,
and
other
websites
covering
friction
materials
manufacturing.
We
consulted
with
the
EPA's
Office
of
Air
Quality
Planning
and
Standards,
Information
Transfer,
the
Program
Integration
Division,
Link
Testing
Laboratories,

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.

These
standards
require
the
respondents
to
maintain
all
records,
including
reports
and
notifications
for
at
least
five
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.
Also,
the
retention
of
records
for
five
years
would
allow
EPA
to
establish
the
compliance
history
of
a
source
and
any
pattern
of
compliance
for
purposes
of
determining
the
appropriate
level
of
enforcement
action.
Historically,
EPA
has
found
that
the
most
flagrant
violators
frequently
have
violations
extending
beyond
the
five
years.
EPA
would
be
prevented
from
pursuing
the
worst
violators
due
to
the
destruction
or
nonexistence
of
records
if
records
were
retained
for
less
than
five
years.

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

forth
in

Electronic
Reporting
At
the
present,
respondents
are
using
monitoring
equipment
that
automatically
records
parameter
data,
e.
g.,
temperature,
pressure
drop,
leaks
and
spills
of
mercury,
etc.
Although
personnel
at
the
affected
facility
must
evaluate
the
data,
this
internal
automation
has
significantly
reduced
the
burden
associated
with
monitoring
and
recordkeeping
at
the
plant
site.

Also,
regulatory
agencies
in
cooperation
with
the
respondents,
continue
to
create
reporting
systems
to
transmit
data
electronically.
However,
electronic
reporting
systems
are
still
not
widely
used.
At
this
time,
it
is
estimated
that
approximately
10
percent
of
the
respondents
use
electronic

Agency
to
discern
a
source's
initial
capability
to
comply
with
the
emission
standard,
and
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
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/
operator
for
five
years.

5(
c)
Small
Entity
Flexibility
A
majority
of
the
respondents
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.

The
specific

activity
within

of
individual
burdens
for
the

requirements
applicable
to
the

for
the
subpart
included
in
this
ICR.
The
individual
burdens
are
expressed
under
standardized
headings
believed
to
be
consistent
with
the
concept
of
burden
under
the
Paperwork

Act.
Where
appropriate,
specific
tasks
and
major
assumptions
have
been
identified.
Responses
to

unless
it
displays
a

Estimating
Respondent
Burden
The
average
annual
burden
to
industry
over
the
next
three
years
from
these
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements
is
estimated
to
be
1,296
(
Total
Labor
Hours
from
Table

These
hours
are
based
on
Agency
studies
and
background
documents
from
the
development
of
the
regulation,
Agency
knowledge
and
experience
with
the
NESHAP
program,
the

The
rates
are
from

The
rates
have
been
increased
by
110
percent
to
account
for
the

available
to
those

both
labor
costs
which
are

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
$
2,387.

This
cost
is
based
on
the
average

labor
rate
as
follows:

Estimating
the
Respondent
Universe
and
Total
Burden
and
Costs
Based
on
our
research
for
this
ICR,
approximately
four
existing
sources
are
currently
subject
to
the
standard.
It
is
estimated
that
no
additional
sources
per
year
will
become
subject
to
the
standard
in
the
next
three
years.

Number
of
respondents
is
calculated
using
the
following

which
addresses
the

6(
f)
Reasons
for
Change
in
Burden
There
is
no
change
in
the
number
of
respondents
identified
in
the
active
ICR,
however,
there
is
a
decrease
of
94
hours
in
the
estimated
burden
currently
identified
in
the
OMB
Inventory
of
Approved
ICR
Burdens.
The
decrease
is
attributed
to
the
fact
that
the
renewal
ICR
reflects
that
all
four
sources
are
in
compliance
with
the
standard
and
there
are
no
new
sources
with
reporting
requirements.

Because
there
are
no
new
sources
with
reporting
requirements,
no
capital/
startup
costs
are
incurred.
The
cost
that
is
incurred
is
for
the
operation
and
maintenance
(
O&
M)
associated
with
this
ICR,
as
compared
with
the
active
ICR
currently
identified
in
the
OMB
inventory.

Burden
Statement
The
annual
public
reporting
and
recordkeeping
burden
for
this
collection
of
information
is
estimated
to
average
162
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

providing
information;
adjust
the
existing

collection
of
information;
search
data
sources;
complete
and
review
the
collection
of
information;
and
transmit
or
otherwise
disclose
the
information.

An
agency
may
not
conduct
or
sponsor,
and
a
person
is
not
required
to
respond
to,
a
collection
of

Assumptions:

a
This
ICR
uses
the
following
labor
rates:
$
96.41
per
hour
for
Executive,
Administrative,
and
Managerial
labor;
$
82.74
per
hour
for
Technical
labor,
and
$
42.25
per
hour
for
Clerical
labor.
These
rates
are
from
the
United
States
Department
of
Labor,
Bureau
of
Labor
Statistics,
December
2004,
"
Table
10.
Private
industry,
by
occupational
and
industry
group."
The
rates
are
from
column
1,
"
Total
compensation."
The
rates
have
been
increased
by
110%
to
account
for
the
benefit
packages
available
to
those
employed
by
private
industry.

b
We
have
assumed
that
there
are
four
existing
sources,
and
that
no
additional
new
or
reconstructed
sources
will
become
subject
to
the
rule
over
the
next
three
years.

Within
those
four
existing
sources,
there
is
a
total
of
seven
existing
solvent
mixers
for
an
average
of
(
7/
4=
1.75)
1.75
mixers
per
source,
with
no
additional
new
or
reconstructed
solvent
mixers
expected
to
be
constructed
over
the
three­
years
of
this
ICR.

c
We
have
assumed
that
15
percent
of
respondents
will
report
deviation
.

d
We
have
assumed
that
85
percent
of
respondents
will
report
no
deviation.

e
It
is
assumed
that
10
percent
of
respondents
will
have
a
startup,
shutdown,
or
malfunction
occur
that
is
not
managed
according
to
the
regulation.

f
We
have
assumed
that
solvent
weights
are
recorded
once
per
hour
(
2
minutes
[
0.033
hr]
per
record)
for
2,600
hours
per
year.
This
is
the
industry
average
solvent
mixer
annual
operating
hours.

g
It
is
assumed
that
information
would
be
entered
once
per
week
for
52
weeks
per
year.

h
We
have
assumed
that
a
typical
plant
transmits
one­
time
notification
of
applicability
and
compliance
status;
startup,
shutdown,
and
malfunction
plan
semiannually;

deviation
report
once
a
year;
and
no
deviation
report
semiannually
for
a
total
of
seven
times
per
year.

i
We
have
assumed
that
it
will
take
20
hours
per
plant
once
a
year
to
train
personnel.
