    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 0661.10, OMB Control Number 2060-0002.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on April 30, 2011.

[[Page 14658]]

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 Asphalt 
Processing and Roofing Manufacture (40 CFR part 60, subpart UU) were 
proposed on November 18, 1980, and promulgated on May 26, 1981. These 
standards apply to each saturator and each asphalt storage facility at 
asphalt roofing plants; and to each asphalt storage tank and each 
blowing still at asphalt processing plants, petroleum refineries, and 
asphalt roofing plants. New facilities include those that commenced 
construction, modification, or reconstruction after the date of 
proposal. This information will be used by enforcement agencies to 
verify that sources subject to the standard are meeting the emission 
reductions mandated by the Clean Air Act.
    Owners/operators of asphalt processing and roofing manufacture are 
required to submit one-time only notification of construction/
reconstruction, actual startup, initial performance test, physical or 
operational changes, and demonstration of a continuous monitoring 
system. Records must be maintained 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, in general, are required of all sources 
subject to NSPS.
    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 
two 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 EPA regional office. This information 
is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 60, subpart 
UU, 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.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 113 
hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial 
resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or 
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 which 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: Asphalt processing and roofing 
manufacturers.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 144.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, and semiannually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 33,912.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $8,686,825, which includes $200,000 in 
annualized Capital/Startup costs, $5,040,000 in annualized Operating 
and Maintenance (O&M) costs, and $3,446,825 in annualized labor costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the labor hours or 
cost to the respondents 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 are not anticipated to change over the next 
three years; and (2) the growth rate for the respondents is very low, 
negative, or non-existent. Therefore, the labor hours and cost figures 
in the previous ICR reflect the current burden to the respondents and 
are reiterated in this ICR.

Director, Collection Strategies Division.
