Abstract
The
National
Emissions
Standards
for
Hazardous
Air
Pollutants
for
Polyether
Polyols
Production,
(
40
CFR
part
63
subpart
PPP)
was
proposed
on
June
l,
1999
and
published
January
30,
2002.
These
regulations
apply
to
new
and
existing
facilities
that
engage
in
the
manufacture
of
polyether
polyols
(
which
also
include
polyether
mono­
ols)
and
emit
hazardous
air
pollutants
(
HAP).
Owners
or
operators
of
polyether
polyols
production
facilities
to
which
this
regulation
is
applicable
must
choose
one
of
the
compliance
options
described
in
the
rule
or
install
and
monitor
a
specific
control
system
that
reduces
HAP
emissions
to
the
compliance
level.
The
respondents
are
also
subject
to
sections
of
40
CFR
part
63
subpart
A.

All
existing
sources
must
be
in
compliance
with
the
requirements
of
Subpart
PPP
within
three
years
of
the
effective
date
(
promulgation
date)
of
standards
for
an
affected
source.
All
new
sources
must
be
in
compliance
with
the
requirements
of
Subpart
PPP
upon
startup
or
the
promulgation
date
of
standards
for
an
affected
source,
whichever
is
later.
Compliance
is
assumed
through
initial
performance
testing
or
design
analysis,
as
appropriate,
and
ongoing
compliance
is
demonstrated
through
parametric
monitoring.
Types
of
parameters
monitored
are
incinerator
temperature,
scrubber
flow
rate,
carbon
adsorber
regeneration
frequency
as
well
as
others.
The
appropriate
parameter
to
monitor
depends
on
the
type
of
control
device
with
the
owner
or
operator
chooses
to
comply.

The
polyether
polyol
universe
consists
of
81
existing
facilities
that
would
be
subject
to
the
major
source
provisions
specified
under
subpart
PPP.
We
anticipate
one
new
source
that
will
be
subject
to
the
standards.
We
anticipate
that
all
of
these
facilities
will
conduct
all
monitoring,
inspection,
recordkeeping,
and
reporting
(
MIRR)
requirements.
Based
on
these
estimates,
the
total
MIRR
cost
of
the
rulemaking
for
the
NESHAP
for
Subpart
PPP
is
estimated
to
be
$
1,040,942
annually
for
the
next
three
years.
See
Section
6
for
more
details.

The
active
(
previous)
ICR
had
the
following
Terms
of
Clearance
(
TOC):

EPA
is
reminded
that
at
the
time
this
collection
is
renewed,
the
Agency
should
ensure
that
its
submission
properly
accounts
for
the
2
amortization
of
capital
costs
beyond
the
three
year
period
for
which
this
ICR
is
approved.
The
Agency
should
also
revise
as
necessary
its
estimate
of
the
number
of
new
sources
to
reflect
current
information
at
the
time
of
its
renewal
submission.

EPA
has
addressed
each
item
of
concern
in
the
TOC.
EPA
addressed
the
first
TOC
by
including
the
current
amortization
of
past
capital
costs
in
the
Capital
costs
for
the
current
ICR
period.
EPA
has
addressed
the
TOC
for
estimating
the
number
of
new
sources
by
collecting
information
and
performing
consultations
as
described
in
section
3(
c).

2.
Need
for
and
Use
of
the
Collection
2(
a)
Need/
Authority
for
the
Collection
The
Clean
Air
Act
(
Act)
provides
authority
to
the
Agency
to
establish
standards
to
control
air
pollution
and
to
ensure
compliance
with
promulgated
regulations
through
adequate
recordkeeping
and
reporting
by
the
affected
industries
(
i.
e.,
respondents).
The
regulations
include
the
New
Source
Performance
Standards
(
NSPS)
under
section
111
of
the
Act,
the
National
Emission
Standards
for
Hazardous
Air
Pollutants
(
NESHAP)
which
includes
the
original
NESHAP
standards
and
the
more
recent
Maximum
Achievable
Control
Technology
(
MACT)
or
NESHAP­
MACT
standards
under
section
112
of
the
Act,
and
emission
guidelines
for
the
designated
types
incinerators
under
section
129
of
the
Act.

2(
b)
Practical
Utility/
Users
of
the
Data
The
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements
in
the
standard(
s)
are
used
by
regulatory
agencies,
the
public
and
the
regulated
community
for
a
variety
of
reasons
including
the
determination
of
the
respondent's
compliance
status,
analytical
studies
to
demonstrate
compliance
trends,
and
evaluations
regarding
the
efficacy
of
the
promulgated
regulations.

The
required
recordkeeping
and
reporting
are
also
used
to:
1)
certify
compliance
with
the
regulations;
2)
determine
the
respondent's
compliance
with
the
designated
emission
limitation(
s);
3)
notify
regulatory
agencies
when
a
standard
is
violated;
4)
evaluate
continuous
compliance
through
the
use
of
emission
or
operational
parameter
monitors;
and
5)
ensure
that
plant
personnel
are
following
the
required
procedures
and
are
periodically
trained,
as
indicated.

3.
Nonduplication,
Consultations,
and
Other
Collection
Criteria
3(
a)
Nonduplication
The
standards
do
not
require
the
duplication
in
the
collection
and
reporting
of
information.
If
the
subject
standards
have
not
been
delegated,
the
information
is
sent
directly
to
the
appropriate
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(
EPA)
regional
office.
Otherwise,
the
information
is
sent
3
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.

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

3(
c)
Consultations
Upon
review
of
the
standard,
information
available
and
the
data,
the
Agency
has
determined
the
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements
in
the
"
Active"
ICR
is
fully
supported
and
necessary
to
fulfil
the
requirements
of
the
Clean
Air
Act
(
CAA).
Any
pertinent
comments
received
since
the
last
ICR
renewal
including
those
submitted
in
response
to
the
first
Federal
Register
notice
announcing
the
renewal
of
this
ICR,
have
been
reviewed,
and
it
has
been
determined
that
no
further
consultations
with
industry
are
necessary
to
calculate
the
burden
for
this
renewal.
It
should
be
noted
that
the
respondents,
the
industry
trade
association(
s)
and
other
interested
parties
were
provided
an
opportunity
to
comment
on
the
burden
associated
with
the
standard
as
it
was
being
developed.

3(
d)
Effects
of
Less
Frequent
Collection
The
effect
of
less
frequent
collection
would
be
a
decrease
in
the
margin
of
assurance
that
facilities
are
achieving
the
emission
reductions
mandated
by
the
CAA
through
the
promulgation
of
the
applicable
regulations.
In
addition,
the
likelihood
of
detecting
the
poor
operation
and
maintenance
of
control
equipment
decreases
and
the
detection
of
noncompliance
becomes
problematic.

3(
e)
General
Guidelines
Neither
the
reporting
nor
recordkeeping
requirements
violate
the
regulations
established
by
Office
of
Management
and
Budget
(
OMB)
at
5
CFR
part
1320,
section
1320.5.
However,
most
NESHAP
standards
and
a
few
NSPS
standards
require
records
to
be
kept
more
than
three
years.
In
general,
these
standards
require
the
respondents
to
maintain
all
records,
including
reports
and
notifications,
for
five
years.
The
five­
year
record
retention
requirement
is
consistent
with
the
permit
program
at
40
CFR
part
70,
and
the
five­
year
statute
of
limitations
on
which
the
permit
program
is
based.

The
retention
of
records
for
five
years
allows
EPA
to
establish
the
compliance
history
of
the
respondent
for
purposes
of
determining
the
appropriate
level
of
enforcement
action.
4
Historically,
EPA
notes
that
the
most
flagrant
violations
have
extended
beyond
a
five­
year
period.
If
records
are
retained
for
less
than
five
years,
EPA
would
be
deterred
from
pursuing
the
most
flagrant
violations
due
to
the
destruction
of
records
documenting
noncompliance.

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
set
forth
in
Title

Electronic
Reporting
6
At
the
present,
many
respondents
to
CAA
standards
use
monitoring
equipment
that
automatically
records
parameter
data.
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
20
percent
of
the
respondents
use
electronic
reporting.

of
the
activities
provided
in
Table

in
connection
with
the
acquisition,
analysis,

are
introduced
in
Section

of
this
ICR.

5(
b)
Collection
Methodology
and
Management
The
required
data
and
reports
can
be
evaluated
thru
an
on­
site
by
conducting
a
partial
compliance
evaluation,
full
compliance
evaluation
or
inspection,
or
thru
an
off­
site
review
of
compliance
monitoring
records
and
reports.
Evaluation
reports
and
inspection
results
are
maintained
by
the
Agency
or
delegated
authority.

The
results
of
these
evaluations
are
entered
into
the
Air
Facility
Subsystem
(
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
delegated
authorities
can
retrieve
and
analyze
the
data.

5(

Small
Entity
Flexibility
Per
the
previously
approved
ICR,
six
of
the
82
affected
facilities
in
this
source
category
are
small
businesses.
The
Agency
does
not
expect
that
any
polyester
polyols
production
facilities,
including
the
small
businesses,
would
experience
adverse
impacts
related
to
the
cost
of
the
required
reporting
and
recordkeeping.

for
process
vent
monitoring.
Equipment
costs
are
annualized
over
5
years
at
10
percent
interest.
The
capital
recovery
factor
is
therefore
0.2638
per
year.
The
capital
costs,
assumed
to
be
a
one­
time
cost
for
the
life
of
the
equipment,
were
estimated
to
be
$
9,385
per
source.
It
is
estimated
that
there
will
be
one
new
source
over
the
three
years
covered
by
this
ICR.
The
total
capital
costs
for
the
period
covered
by
this
ICR
are
therefore
the
previous
capital
costs
multiplied
by
the
capital
recovery
factor
and
the
one
new
source
cost
multiplied
by
the
capital
recovery
factor,
or
$
203,012
per
year
((
81
existing
sources
+
one
new
source)
X
9385/
source
X
.2638)

The
annual
operation
and
maintenance
costs
are
the
ongoing
costs
to
maintain
the
monitor.
These
costs
are
considered
negligible
and
are
therefore
zero.

Costs
The
total
capital/

costs
for
this

are
$
203,012.
These
costs
are
shown
in

It
should
be
noted
that
the

in
block

of
the
OMB

form
are
rounded
to
show
the
cost
in

The
total
operation
and

costs
for
this
Information
Collection
Request
(
ICR)
are
zero,
consistent
with
the
previously

have
been
calculated
as
the
addition
of
the
capital/

costs,
and
the
annual
operation

costs.
The
average
annual
cost
for
capital/
startup
and
operation
and
maintenance
costs
to
industry
over
the
next
three
years
of
the
ICR
is
estimated
to
be
$
203,012
.
This
cost

Estimating
Agency
Burden
and
Costs
The
only
costs
to
the
Agency
are
those
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
and
the
publication
and
distribution
of
collected
information.

The
average
annual
Agency
cost
during
the
three
years
of
the
ICR
is
shown
in
Table
2,
attached.

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

Managerial
$
56.02
(
GS­
13,
Step
5,
$
35.01
x

Technical
$

Clerical
$
22.50
(
GS­

These
rates
are
from
the
Office
of
Personnel
Management
(
OPM)
"

General
Schedule"
which
excludes
locality
rates
of

Estimating
the
Respondent
Universe
and
Total
Burden
and
Costs
The
number
of
Total
Annual
Responses
is
determined
from
the
number
of
reports
required
to
be
submitted
by
the
respondents.
This
is
calculated
in
Table
1
as
190
responses.
This
number
is
shown
on
the
OMB
83­
I
form
in
block

Total
annual
responses.

The
Total
Hours
Requested
is

6(
f)
Reasons
for
Change
in
Burden
The
decrease
in
burden
from
the
most
recently
approved
ICR
is
due
to
adjustment
in
both
the
types
of
information
which
must
be
collected
and
the
number
of
sources
submitting
the
required
information.
Specifically,
the
following
burden
items,
which
were
in
the
previous
ICR
were
deleted
from
this
ICR
because
they
are
not
required
under
the
rule.

Notification
of
demonstration
of
CMS
Submittal
of
quality
control
plan
for
CMS
Notification
of
anticipated
startup
There
is
also
no
separate
report
required
for
monitoring
exceedences;
the
burden
associated
with
this
is
captured
in
the
semi­
annual
report
burden,
so
this
burden
was
deleted
to
avoid
double
counting.
Additionally,
based
on
the
assumptions
in
the
most
previously
approved
ICR,
the
correct
number
for
sources
submitting
notifications
of
construction/
reconstruction,
compliance
status
and
actual
startup
are
only
the
new
sources,
or
one.
Finally,
the
number
of
sources
performing
leak
detection
and
repair
(
LDAR)
and
submitting
semi­
annual
reports
includes
both
new
and
existing
sources,
or
82.

The
Capital/
Startup
costs
as
calculated
in
this
ICR's
section
6(
b)(
iii)
compared
with
the
costs
in
the
previous
ICR
have
decreased.
The
previous
ICR
incorrectly
calculated
the
capital/
startup
costs.
This
ICR
renewal
also
includes
the
continued
capital
depreciation
costs,
per
11
OMB's
TOC
as
described
in
paragraph
1(
b).

6(
g)
Burden
Statement
The
annual
public
reporting
and
recordkeeping
burden
for
this
collection
of
information
is
estimated
to
average
80
hours
per
response.
Burden
means
the
total
time,
effort,
or
financial
resources
expended
by
persons
to
generate,
maintain,
retain,
disclose,
or
provide
information
to
or
for
a
Federal
agency.
This
includes
the
time
needed
to
review
instructions;
to
develop,
acquire,
install,
and
utilize
technology
and
systems
for
the
purposes
of
collecting,
validating
and
verifying
information,
processing
and
maintaining
information,
and
disclosing
and
providing
information;
to
adjust
the
existing
ways
to
comply
with
any
previously
applicable
instructions
and
requirements;
to
train
personnel
to
be
able
to
respond
to
a
collection
of
information;
to
search
data
sources;
to
complete
and
review
the
collection
of
information;
and
to
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
information
unless
it
displays
a
valid
OMB
Control
Number.
