    Title: NSPS for Bulk Gasoline Terminals (Renewal).
    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 0664.09, OMB Control Number 2060-0006.
    ICR Status: This ICR is schedule to expire on January 31, 2009. 
Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor

[[Page 66039]]

pending at OMB. An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is 
not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it 
displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers 
for EPA's regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the 
Federal Register when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, and 
displayed either by publication in the Federal Register or by other 
appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or 
form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA 
regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.
    Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Bulk 
Gasoline Terminals were proposed on December 17, 1980, promulgated on 
August 18, 1983, and amended on December 22, 1983. These standards 
apply to the total of all loading racks at bulk gasoline terminals that 
deliver liquid product into gasoline tank trucks and for which 
construction, modification or reconstruction commenced after the date 
of proposal. A bulk gasoline terminal is any gasoline facility that 
receives gasoline by pipeline, ship or barge, and has a gasoline 
throughput greater than 75,700 liters per day. The affected facility 
includes the loading arms, pumps, meters, shutoff valves, relief 
valves, and other piping and valves necessary to fill delivery tank 
trucks. Volatile organic chemicals (VOCs) are the pollutants regulated 
under this subpart.
    Owners or operators of the affected facilities, must make the 
following one-time-only reports: Notification of the date of 
construction or reconstruction; notification of the anticipated and 
actual dates of startup; notification of any physical or operational 
change to an existing facility that may increase the regulated 
pollutant emission rate; notification of the date of the initial 
performance test, and the results of the initial performance test. 
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 required, in general, of all sources subject to NSPS.
    Monitoring requirements specific to bulk gasoline terminals are 
listed in 40 CFR 60.505. These requirements consist of identifying and 
documenting vapor tightness for each gasoline tank truck that is loaded 
at the affected facility, and notifying the owner or operator of each 
tank truck that is not vapor-tight. The owner or operator must also 
perform a monthly visual inspection for liquid or vapor leaks, and 
maintain records of these inspections at the facility.
    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. This information is being 
collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 60, subpart XX, as 
authorized in section 112 and 114(a) of the Clean Air Act. The required 
information consists of emissions data and other information that have 
been determined to be private.
    An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid OMB Control Number. The OMB Control Number for EPA's 
regulations listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15, are 
identified on the form and/or instrument, if applicable.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information estimated to average 329 
hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial 
resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or 
disclose and 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. All 
existing ways will have to adjust to comply with any previously 
applicable instructions and requirements that have subsequently 
changed; 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.
    Respondents/Affected Entities: Bulk gasoline terminals.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 40.
    Frequency of Response: Initially and occasionally.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 13,165.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $1,062,809 in Labor costs. There are 
no annualized capital/startup or annual Operations & Maintenance (O&M) 
costs associated with this ICR.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the labor cost in 
this ICR compared to the previous ICR. This is due to two 
considerations: (1) The regulations have not changed over the past 
three years and not anticipated to change over the next three years; 
and (2) the growth rate for the industry is very low, negative or non-
existent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden. 
However, there is a change in the total labor hours of 3 hours less 
than was in the previous ICR; this was due to a calculation error. This 
ICR corrects the error.
    Since there are no changes in the regulatory requirements and there 
is no significant industry growth, the labor hours and cost figures in 
the previous ICR was used in this ICR, and there is no change in burden 
to industry.
