NESHAP for the Surface Coating of Large Household and Commercial Appliances (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart NNNN) (Renewal)

1.  Identification of the Information Collection

	1(a)  Title of the Information Collection

NESHAP for the Surface Coating of Large Household and Commercial Appliances (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart NNNN) (Renewal), EPA ICR Number 1954.05, OMB Control Number 2060-0457

	1(b)  Short Characterization/Abstract

	The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for the Surface Coating of Large Household and Commercial Appliances (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart NNNN) were proposed on December 22, 2000, and promulgated on July 23, 2002.  These regulations apply to both existing and new facilities that perform surface coating of large household and commercial appliances and related parts where the total Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs) emitted are greater than or equal to 10 tons per year of any one HAP, or where the total HAPs emitted are greater than or equal to 25 tons per year of any combination of HAPs.  New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of the proposal.  This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63,   subpart NNNN.

	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.

	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 five 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 U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regional office.

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

	Over the next three years, an average of 102 respondents per year will be subject to the standard, and four additional respondents per year will become subject to the standard over the three-year period of this ICR. 
	The active (previous) ICR had the following "Terms of Clearance:"

            When this ICR is renewed, EPA should review the respondent
             burden, universe, response number, labor rates, and capital
             costs and ensure these estimates have been updated.
      
      EPA addressed each item of concern in the TOC.  The respondent burden, universe, response number, and labor rates were updated and incorporated into the burden tables for both the "Affected Public" and the "Federal Government." The capital costs were also updated to reflect changes in the respondent universe. 
      
	All of the large household and commercial appliance surface coating facilities in the United States are owned and operated by the large household and commercial appliance manufacturing industry (the "Affected Public").  None of the facilities in the United States are owned by state, local, tribal or the Federal government.  They are all privatelyowned, for-profit businesses.  The burden to the "Affected Public" may be found below in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost - NESHAP for the Surface Coating of Large Household and Commercial Appliances (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart NNNN) (Renewal).  The burden to the "Federal Government" is attributed entirely to work performed by Federal employees or government contractors.  This burden may be found below in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost - NESHAP for the Surface Coating of Large Household and Commercial Appliances (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart NNNN) (Renewal).

	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 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.

	In the Administrator's judgment, HAP emissions from large household and commercial appliance surface coating facilities either cause or contribute to air pollution that may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare.  Therefore, NESHAP for this source category were promulgated at 40 CFR part 63, subpart NNNN. 

	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.  

	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/or leaks are being detected and repaired and the standard 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.  Non-duplication, Consultations, and Other Collection Criteria

	The recordkeeping and reporting requested is required under 40 CFR part 63, subpart NNNN.

	3(a)  Non-duplication

	If the subject standards have not been delegated, the information is sent 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 their 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 Office of Management and Budget (OMB)

	An announcement of a public comment period for the renewal of this ICR was published in the Federal Register (76 FR 26900) on May 9, 2011.  No comments were received on the burden published in the Federal Register.
	
3(c)  Consultations

	The Agency has consulted industry experts and internal data sources to project the number of effected facilities and industry growth over the next three years. The primary source of information as reported by industry, in compliance with the recordkeeping and reporting provisions in the standard, is the Online Tracking Information System (OTIS) which is operated and maintained by EPA's Office of Compliance.  OTIS is EPA's database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of all compliance data.  The growth rate for the industry is based on our consultations with the Agency internal industry experts. 
	
      Industry trade associations and other interested parties were provided an opportunity to comment on the burden associated with the standard as it was being developed and the standard has been previously reviewed to determine the minimum information needed for compliance purposes.  In developing this ICR, we contacted: 1) the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers (AHAM), at (202) 872-5955; 2) Whirlpool Corporation, at (269) 923-3614;     and 3) the Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute (AHRI) at (703) 524-8800.      A comment was received from Whirlpool Corporation indicating that the annual O&M time varies from 24 to 80 hours at a technicians pay grade depending on the size of the facility, sophistication of management systems, and the amount of field verification checks. Based on this comment, the estimate annual Operations and Maintenance (O&M) costs were updated in Section 6(b)(iii).

      It is our policy to respond after a thorough review of comments received since the last ICR renewal as well as to those submitted in response to the first Federal Register notice. 

	3(d)  Effects of Less Frequent Collection

	Less frequent information collection would decrease the margin of assurance that facilities are continuing to meet the required 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 proper operation and maintenance of control equipment and the possibility of detecting violations would be less likely.

	3(e)  General Guidelines

	These reporting or recordkeeping requirements do not violate any of the regulations established by OMB at 5 CFR part 1320, section 1320.5.

 	These standards require affected facilities 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.  The retention of records for five years allows EPA to establish the compliance history of a source, any pattern of non-compliance, and to determine the appropriate level of enforcement action.  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 either the destruction or nonexistence of essential records.

	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 40, Chapter 1, part 2, subpart B - Confidentiality of Business Information (CBI) (see 40 CFR 2; 41 FR 36902, September 1, 1976; amended by 43 FR 40000, September 8, 1978; 43 FR 42251, September 20, 1978; 44 FR 17674, March 23, 1979).

	3(g)  Sensitive Questions

	The reporting or recordkeeping requirements in the standard do not include sensitive questions.

Electronic Reporting

      Some of the respondents are using monitoring equipment that automatically records parameter data.  Although personnel at the affected facility must still evaluate the data, internal automation has significantly reduced the burden associated with monitoring and recordkeeping at a 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 reporting.

		(ii)  Respondent Activities

                             Respondent Activities
Read instructions.
Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate CMS for temperature, for gas flow, or for pressure drop for oxidizer, carbon adsorber, condenser, concentrator, or capture system.

Currently sources are using monitoring and reporting equipment that provide parameter data in an automated way e.g., continuous parameter monitoring system.  Although personnel at the source still need to evaluate the data, this type of monitoring equipment has significantly reduced the burden associated with monitoring and recordkeeping.



5.  The Information Collected -- Agency Activities, Collection Methodology, and Information Management

	5(a)  Agency Activities

	EPA conducts the following activities in connection with the acquisition, analysis, storage, and distribution of the required information.
 
                               Agency Activities
Observe initial performance tests and repeat performance tests if necessary.
Review notifications and reports, including performance test reports, excess emissions reports, startup, shutdown, malfunction plan, and quality control plan for CMS required to be submitted by industry.
Audit facility records.
Input, analyze, and maintain data in the Online Tracking Information System (OTIS).

      5(b)  Collection Methodology and Management

	Following notification of startup, the reviewing authority could 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.  OTIS 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 OTIS 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 (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.  In the Background Information for the Large Appliance Surface Coating Operations NESHAP, 57 percent of the parent companies affected by proposed action were estimated to be small entities as defined by the Small Business Administration.  The Agency assumes that 57 percent of the 102 facilities affected by this ICR, or 58 facilities, are small entities.
      
      5(d)  Collection Schedule

	The specific frequency for each information collection activity within this request is shown below in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost - NESHAP for the Surface Coating of Large Household and Commercial Appliances (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart NNNN) (Renewal).

6.  Estimating the Burden and Cost of the Collection

	Table 1 documents the computation of individual burdens for the recordkeeping and reporting requirements applicable to the industry 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 Reduction Act.  Specific tasks and major assumptions have been identified were appropriate.  Responses to this information collection   are mandatory.
	
      The 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.

	6(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 32,634 hours (Total Labor Hours from Table 1 below).  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 previously approved ICR, and any comments received.

	6(b)  Estimating Respondent Costs

		(i)  Estimating Labor Costs

	This ICR uses the following labor rates: 

		Managerial	$121.42   ($57.82 + 110%)
		Technical	$99.14   ($47.21 + 110%)
		Clerical	$49.81   ($23.72 + 110%)

These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, September, 2011, "Table 2: Civilian Workers, by Occupational and Industry group."  The rates are from column 1, "Total Compensation."  The rates have been increased by 110 percent to account for the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry.

      (ii)  Estimating Capital and Operations and Maintenance Costs

	The type of industry costs associated with the information collection activity in the subject standards are both labor costs which are addressed elsewhere in this ICR and the costs associated with continuous monitoring.  The capital/startup costs are one-time costs when a facility becomes subject to the regulation.  The annual operation and maintenance costs are the ongoing costs to maintain the monitors and other costs such as photocopying and postage.
	
      (iii)  Capital/Startup vs. Operating and Maintenance (O&M) Costs

                                   $530,400
[1]Comments received from Whirlpool Corporation during industry consultation suggested that annual O&M cost can vary from 24 to 80 hours at a technicians pay grade. To calculate annual O&M costs, an average of 52 hours was assumed and multiplied by the technical labor rate of $99.14.

	The total capital/startup costs for this ICR are $64,000.  This is the total of column D in the above table. 
 
	The total operating and maintenance (O&M) costs for this ICR are $530,400.  This is the total of column G. 

	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 $594,400.  These are recordkeeping costs.

	6(c)  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 $138,060. 

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

		Managerial	$62.27   (GS-13, Step 5, $38.92 x 1.6)
		Technical	$46.21   (GS-12, Step 1, $28.88 x 1.6)
		Clerical	$25.01   (GS-6, Step 3, $15.63 x 1.6)

These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) "2011 General Schedule" which excludes locality rates of pay.  The rates have been increased by 60 percent to account for the benefit packages available to government employees. Details upon which this estimate is based appear below in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost - NESHAP for the Surface Coating of Large Household and Commercial Appliances (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart NNNN) (Renewal). 

	6(d)  Estimating the Respondent Universe and Total Burden and Costs

	Based on our research for this ICR, on average over the next three years, approximately 98 existing respondents will be subject to the standard.  It is estimated that an additional four respondents per year will become subject.  The overall average number of respondents, as shown in the table below, is 102 per year. 

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

                             Number of Respondents
                                     Year

      6(f)  Reasons for Change in Burden

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      There is an adjustment increase in the total estimated burden hours and costs for both the respondents and the Agency as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens.  This increase is not due to any program changes. This change is due to an increase in the average number of respondents subject to the standard, and an increase in labor rates.  This ICR uses updated labor rates for each of the three labor categories. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      There is also an increase in the O&M costs to the respondents.  The costs were updated to reflect comments received during consultation. 

      6(g)  Burden Statement

Assumptions:
[a]  We have assumed that the average number of respondents that will be subject to the rule will be 102. There will be four additional new sources that will become subject to the rule over the three-year period of this ICR. 
b  This ICR uses the following labor rates: $121.42 per hour for Executive, Administrative, and Managerial labor; $99.14 per hour for Technical labor, and $49.81 per hour for Clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, September 2011, "Table 2. Civilian Workers, 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.
[c]  We have assumed that each respondent will take 4 hours to read the rule and instructions.
[d]  We have assumed that it will take eight hours for each respondent to plan activities and eight hours for training.
[e]  We have assumed that each respondent will take twelve hours twelve times per year to complete task.
[f]  We have assumed that each respondent will take eight hours twelve times per year to complete task.
[g]  We have assumed that each respondent will take eight hours twice per year to complete reports.
[h]  We have assumed that each respondent will take one hour two times per week to record and disclose information.

Assumptions:
a  We have assumed that the average number of respondents that will be subject to the rule will be 102. There will be four additional sources that will become subject to the rule over the three-year period of this ICR
b  This cost is based on the following labor rates which incorporates a 1.6 benefits multiplication factor to account for government overhead expenses: Managerial rate of $62.27 (GS-13, Step 5, $38.92 x 1.6), Technical rate of $46.21 (GS-12, Step 1, $28.88 x 1.6), and Clerical rate of $25.01 (GS-6, Step3, $15.63 x 1.6).  These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) "2011 General Schedule" which excludes locality rates of pay.
[c]  We have assumed that each respondent will take 24 hours four times per year to complete task.
[d]  We have assumed that each respondent will take 24 hours once per year to repeat performance test because of failure.
[e]  We have assumed that each respondent will take eight hour four times per year to review notification reports.
[f]  We have assumed that each respondent will take 12 hours to review semiannual reports.
