SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Supporting documents which explain in 

detail the information that the EPA will 

be collecting are available in the public 

docket for this ICR. The docket can be 

viewed online at www.regulations.gov 

or in person at the EPA Docket Center, 

EPA West, Room 3334, 1301 

Constitution Ave. NW., Washington,

Docket Center is 202–566–1744. For 

additional information about EPA’s

dockets. 

Abstract: These regulations apply to 

new and existing facilities of the 

following four categories: 

Polycarbonates (PC) Production, Acrylic 

and Modacrylic Fibers (AMF) 

Production, Acetal Resins (AR) 

Production, and Hydrogen Fluoride 

(HF) Production. New facilities include 

those that commenced construction or 

reconstruction after the date of proposal. 

This information is being collected to 

assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, 

subpart YY. 

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/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 United 

States Environmental Protection Agency 

(EPA) regional office. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Respondents are existing facilities and 

new of the following four categories: 

Polycarbonates (PC) Production, Acrylic 

and Modacrylic Fibers (AMF) 

Production, Acetal Resins (AR) 

Production, and Hydrogen Fluoride 

(HF) Production. The PC industry 

consists of facilities that produce 

polycarbonates, a process that involves 

a polymerization reaction using either a 

solution or suspension process in either 

a batch or continuous mode. All 

production of polycarbonates in the 

United States is currently based on the 

polymerization reaction of bisphenols 

with phosgene in the presence of 

catalysts, solvents (mainly methylene 

chloride) and other additives. The AMF 

industry consists of facilities that 

produce acrylic and modacrylic fibers, 

which are manufactured synthetic fibers 

in which the fiber-forming substance is 

any long-chain synthetic polymer 

containing acrylonitrile units. The AR 

industry consists of facilities that 

produce homopolymers and/or 

copolymers of alternating oxymethylene 

units. Acetal resins are also known as 

polyoxymethylenes, polyacetals, and 

aldehyde resins. The HF industry 

consists of facilities that produce and 

recover hydrogen fluoride by reacting 

calcium fluoride with sulfuric acid. In 

this subpart, hydrogen fluoride 

production is not a process that 

produces gaseous hydrogen fluoride for 

direct reaction with hydrated aluminum 

to form aluminum fluoride (i.e., the 

hydrogen fluoride is not recovered as an 

intermediate or final product prior to 

reacting with the hydrated aluminum). 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (40 CFR part 63 subpart YY). 

Estimated number of respondents: 7 

(total). 

Frequency of response: Initially, 

occasionally, and semiannually. 

Total estimated burden: 3,240 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.3(b). 

Total estimated cost: $317,000 (per 

year), includes $127,000 annualized 

capital or operation & maintenance 

costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease in the total estimated 

respondent burden compared with the 

ICR currently approved by OMB. The 

decrease in burden from the most 

recently approved ICR is primarily 

because the number of sources in the PC 

and AMF has decreased. However, there 

is a small increase in EPA burden and 

other changes to the burden calculation 

in this ICR. This ICR incorporates the 

requirements of the rule amendment to 

the PC and AMF subcategories. The rule 

amendment added requirements related

to leak detection and repair (LDAR) and 

pressure relief devices (PRD) for subject 

PC and AMF facilities. We assume 

existing PC and AMF facilities will 

come into compliance with the new 

requirements during the three-year 

period covered under this ICR.

Supporting documents which explain in 

detail the information that the EPA will

docket for this ICR. The docket can be

public docket, visit www.epa.gov/

dockets. 

Abstract: The affected entities are 

subject to the General Provisions of the 

NESHAP at 40 CFR part 61, subpart A, 

and any changes, or additions to the 

General Provisions specified at 40 CFR 

part 61, subpart M. Owners or operators 

of the affected facilities must submit 

initial notification, performance tests, 

and periodic reports and results. 

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. Reports, at a minimum, are 

required semiannually. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Demolition and renovation facilities; 

disposal of asbestos wastes; asbestos 

milling, manufacturing and fabricating; 

use of asbestos on roadways; asbestos 

waste conversion facilities; and the use 

of asbestos insulation and spray-on 

materials. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (40 CFR part 61, subpart M). 

Estimated number of respondents: 

9,603 (total). 

Frequency of response: Initially, 

occasionally, quarterly and 

semiannually. 

Total estimated burden: 292,050 

hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 

CFR 1320.3(b). 

Total estimated cost: $29,370,000 (per 

year), includes $0 annualized capital or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase in the total estimated burden as 

currently identified in the OMB 

Inventory of Approved Burdens. The 

change is due to an increase in the 

asbestos demolition and renovation 

operations each year; it is not due to any 

program changes. We have updated 

respondent and Agency burdens to 

reflect EPA’s current estimates of 

sources subject to the rule. We have also 

updated respondent and Agency labor 

rates, which were referenced from the 

Bureau of Labor Statistics and OPM, 

respectively. 

During the preparation of this ICR, 

EPA identified several discrepancies 

related to rule reporting/recordkeeping 

requirements and associated burdens. 

We have updated the respondent and 

Agency burden tables accordingly in 

order to reconcile the discrepancies. For 

example, the previous ICR did not 

correctly reflect the number of 

demolition/renovation contractors that 

will participate in refresher training. 

The revisions did not result in a 

substantial burden change, as the 

average reporting and recordkeeping 

burden hours per response in this ICR 

is equal to that of the previous ICR.
