    Abstract: Owners and operators of affected facilities are required 
to comply with reporting and recordkeeping requirements for the General 
Provisions (40 CFR part 63, subpart A), as well as the applicable 
standards at 40 CFR part 63, subpart W. This includes submitting 
initial notifications, performance tests and periodic reports and 
results, 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 
these standards.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Epoxy resin and non-nylon polyamide 
resin production facilities.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart W).
    Estimated number of respondents: 7 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, quarterly, and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 3,940 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $476,000 (per year), which includes $14,000 
in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no increase in burden from the 
most recently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory 
of Approved Burdens. This is due to two considerations: (1) The 
regulations have not changed over the past three years, and they are 
not anticipated to change over the next three years; (2) the growth 
rate for this industry is either very low or non-existent, so there is 
no significant change in the overall burden. However, there is a slight 
increase in costs. The operation and maintenance (O&M) costs have been 
updated from 1998 dollars to 2019 dollars using the CEPCI CE Index.

Director, Regulatory Support Division.
