or in person at the EPA Docket Center, EPA West, Room 3334, 1301

public docket, visit: http://www.epa.gov/dockets.
    Abstract: Owners and operators of affected facilities are required 
to comply with reporting and record keeping requirements for the 
general provisions of 40 CFR part 60, subpart A, as well as for the 
specific requirements at 40 CFR part 60, subpart K. This includes 
submitting initial notifications and maintaining 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 reports are used by EPA to 
determine compliance with the standards.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Facilities with petroleum liquids 
storage vessels.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60 
Subpart K).
    Estimated number of respondents: 69 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially and occasionally.
    Total estimated burden: 321 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 
5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $32,200 (per year), which includes $0 for 
both annualized capital/startup and operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a substantial decrease in burden 
from the previous ICR due to a decrease in the number of sources. Many 
storage vessels have been modified and become subject to Subpart Kb. 
Based on information obtained from the Agency's 2011 Petroleum Refinery 
ICR, the number of facilities subject to this regulation has decreased 
from 220 to 69. The update in source count results in a decrease in the 
labor hours, labor costs, and number of responses.
