Title: NESHAP for Beryllium Rocket 

Motor Fuel Firing (Renewal). 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 

1125.06, OMB Control Number 2060– 

0394. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on May 31, 2011. Under OMB 

regulations, the Agency may continue to 

conduct or sponsor the collection of 

information while this submission is 

pending at OMB. An 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. 

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 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 

Provisions are specified at 40 CFR part 

61, subpart D. Owners or operators of 

the affected facilities must submit a onetime-only report of any physical or 

operational changes, initial 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. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 8 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: 

Owners or operators of beryllium rocket 

motor fuel firing facilities. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 1. 

Frequency of Response: Initially and 

annually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

8. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: $784, 

which includes $784 in labor costs; 

there are neither capital/startup costs 

nor operating and maintenance (O&M) 

costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is no 

change in the labor hours, or capital/ 

startup and operation and maintenance 

costs 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 industry is very low, 

negative, or non-existent. 

It should be noted that the wage rates 

in this ICR have been updated resulting 

in an overall increase in the labor cost. 

Dated: April 4, 2011.

srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 68 / Friday, April 8, 2011 / Notices 19771 

An 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. 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, are 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: To determine compliance 

with the NAAQS, State air monitoring 

agencies are required to use, in their air 

quality monitoring networks, air 

monitoring methods that have been 

formally designated by the EPA as either 

reference or equivalent methods under 

EPA regulations at 40 CFR part 53. A 

manufacturer or seller of an air 

monitoring method (e.g. an air 

monitoring sampler or analyzer) that 

seeks to obtain such EPA designation of 

one of its products must carry out 

prescribed tests of the method. The test 

results and other information must then 

be submitted to the EPA in the form of 

an application for a reference or 

equivalent method determination in 

accordance with 40 CFR part 53. The 

EPA uses this information, under the 

provisions of part 53, to determine 

whether the particular method should 

be designated as either a reference or 

equivalent method. After a method is 

designated, the applicant must also 

maintain records of the names and 

mailing addresses of all ultimate 

purchasers of all analyzers or samplers 

sold as designated methods under the 

method designation. If the method 

designated is a method for fine 

particulate matter (PM2.5) and coarse 

particulate matter (PM10–2.5), the 

applicant must also submit a checklist 

signed by an ISO-certified auditor to 

indicate that the samplers or analyzers 

sold as part of the designated method 

are manufactured in an ISO 9001- 

registered facility. Also, an applicant 

must submit a minor application to seek 

approval for any proposed 

modifications to previously designated 

methods. 

A response to this collection of 

information is voluntary, but it is 

required to obtain the benefit of EPA 

designation under 40 CFR part 53. 

Submission of some information that is 

claimed by the applicant to be 

confidential business information may 

be necessary to make a reference or 

equivalent method determination. The 

confidentiality of any submitted 

information identified as confidential 

business information by the applicant 

will be protected in full accordance 

with 40 CFR part 53.15 and all 

applicable provisions of 40 CFR part 2. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average approximately 341 

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. 

The ICR provides a detailed 

explanation of the Agency’s estimate, 

which is only briefly summarized here: 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 22. 

Frequency of response: Annual. 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 1. 

Estimated total annual respondent 

burden hours: 7,492. 

Estimated total respondent annual 

costs: $681,625. This includes an 

estimated burden labor cost of $546,248, 

an estimated cost of $111,894 for capital 

investment, and an estimated $23,483 

for operational and maintenance costs. 

Are there changes in the estimates from 

the last approval? 

A comprehensive review of ongoing 

and expected NAAQS reviews 

encompassing this ICR’s period of 

performance determined that there is no 

expected change in the respondent 

burden, either with regards to labor 

hours or costs. Similarly, there is no 

expected change in the Agency burden 

(either hours or costs) associated with 

any expected changes in NAAQS 

regulations during this ICR’s period of 

performance. 

What is the next step in the process for 

this ICR? 

EPA will consider the comments 

received and amend the ICR as 

appropriate. The final ICR package will 

then be submitted to OMB for review 

and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 

1320.12. At that time, EPA will issue 

another Federal Register notice 

pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to 

announce the submission of the ICR to 

OMB and the opportunity to submit 

additional comments to OMB.
