Short
Characterization/
Abstract
The
New
Source
Performance
Standards
(
NSPS),
for
the
regulations
published
at
40
CFR
part
60,
subpart
HH
were
proposed
on
May
3,
1977,
and
promulgated
on
April
26,
1984,
and
amended
on
October
17,
2000
(
65
FR
61760).
These
regulations
apply
to
each
rotary
lime
kiln
used
in
the
manufacturing
of
lime,
which
commended
construction,
or
modification
after
May
3,
1977.
The
standards
do
not
apply
to
facilities
used
in
the
manufacture
of
lime
at
kraft
pulp
mills.
This
information
is
being
collected
to
assure
compliance
with
40
CFR
part
60,
subpart
HH.

In
general,
all
NSPS
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
NSPS.

Any
owner/
operator
subject
to
the
provisions
of
this
part
shall
maintain
a
file
of
these
measurements,
and
retain
the
file
for
at
least
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.

Based
on
our
consultations
with
industry
representatives,
there
is
an
average
of
2.47
affected
facilities
at
each
plant
site
and
each
plant
site
has
only
one
respondent
(
i.
e.,
the
owner/
operator
of
the
plant
site).

Approximately
41
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."

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/
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.

In
the
Administrator's
judgment,
particulate
matter
emissions
from
rotary
lime
kilns
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
HH.

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.
3
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
ensure
that
the
pollution
control
devices
are
properly
installed
and
operated,
that
leaks
are
being
detected
and
repaired,
and
that
the
standards
are
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
60,
subpart
HH.

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
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
(
70
FR
24020)
on
May
6,
2005.
No
comments
were
received
on
the
burden
published
in
the
Federal
Register.

3(
c)
Consultations
For
the
information
collection,
we
referenced
the
most
recent
ICR,
consulted
with
the
preparer
of
the
active
ICR,
and
used
other
resources
to
obtain
the
most
recent
data
available.
We
reviewed
information
available
from
the
United
States
Census
Bureau,
U.
S.
Department
of
the
Interior,
U.
S.
Geological
Survey,
the
Air
facility
System
(
AFS),
and
websites
covering
lime
manufacturing
plants.
We
also
consulted
with
the
EPA's
Office
of
Air
Quality
Planning
and
4
standards,
Information
Transfer,
the
Program
Integration
Division,
and
the
National
Lime
Association,

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(

General
Guidelines
None
of
these
reporting
or
recordkeeping
requirements
violate
any
of
the
regulations
established
by
OMB
at

section
1320.5.

3(

Confidentiality
Any
information
submitted
to
the
Agency
for
which
a
claim
of
confidentiality
is
made
will
be
safeguarded

Electronic
Reporting
At
the
present,
respondents
are
using
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
6
widely
used.
At
this
time,
it
is
estimated
that
approximately
10
percent
of
the
respondents
use
electronic
reporting.

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/
operator
for
two
years.

5(
c)
Small
Entity
Flexibility
A
majority
of
the
respondents
are
large
entities
(
i.
e.,
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.

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
3,773
(
Total
Labor
Hours
from
Table
1).
These
hours
are
based
on
Agency
studies
and
background
documents
from
the
development
of
this
regulation,
Agency
knowledge
and
experience
with
the
NSPS
program,
the
previously

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
$
15,292.

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

Managerial
$
56.02
(
GS­

These
rates
are
from
the
Office
of

(

which
excludes
locality

Estimating
the
Respondent
Universe
and
Total
Burden
and
Costs
Based
on
our
research
for
this
ICR,
on
average
over
the
next
three
years,
approximately
41
existing
respondents
will
be
subject
to
the
standard.
It
is
estimated
that
no
additional
respondents
per
year
will
become
subject.
The
overall
average
number
of
respondents,
as
shown
in
the
table
below
is
41
per
year.

The
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
the
fact
that
we
are
now
accounting
for
management
and
clerical
person
hours
per
year,
which
was
not
shown
in
the
previous
ICR.
However,
there
is
a
decrease
in
the
number
of
respondents
as
compared
to
the
active
ICR.
After
conducting
a
thorough
analysis
with
the
National
Lime
Association,
and
using
the
most
updated
reports
from
the
U.
S.
Department
of
the
Interior
and
the
U.
S.
Geological
Survey
dated
(
December
2004),
we
arrived
at
the
figure
of
forty­
one
as
the
number
of
sources,
as
compared
to
fifty­
three
in
the
previous
ICR.

There
is
however,
a
decline
in
the
reporting
and
recordkeeping
burden
cost.
The
reason
for
the
decline
is
because
there
are
no
new
sources
expected
over
the
next
three
years
and
the
adjustment
to
the
number
of
existing
sources
as
compared
to
the
previous
ICR.

6(

Burden
Statement
The
annual
public
reporting
and
recordkeeping
burden
for
this
collection
of
information
is
estimated
to
average
46
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;
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;
adjust
the
existing
ways
to
comply
with
any
previously
applicable
instructions
and
requirements;
train
personnel
to
be
able
to
respond
to
a
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
information
unless
it
displays
a
valid
OMB
Control
Number.

OMB
Control
Numbers
