Title: NESHAP for Secondary 

Aluminum Production (Renewal) . 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 

1894.07, OMB Control Number 2060– 

0433. 

ICR Status: This ICR is schedule to 

expire on November 30, 2012. Under 

OMB regulations, the Agency may 

continue to conduct or sponsor the 

collection of information while this 

submission is pending at OMB. 

Abstract: The affected entities are 

subject to the General Provisions of the 

NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A, 

and any changes, or additions to the 

Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, 

subpart RRR. 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. Reports are also required 

semiannually. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information estimated 

to average 28 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: 

Secondary aluminum production 

facilities. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

1,834. 

Frequency of Response: Initially, 

occasionally, and semiannually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

101,856. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$10,088,531, which includes $9,862,781 

in labor costs, $84,000 in capital/startup 

costs, and $141,750 in operation and 

maintenance (O&M) costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

adjustment increase in the total 

estimated burden as currently identified 

in the OMB Inventory of Approved 

Burdens. This increase is not due to any 

program changes. The change in the 

burden and cost estimates occurred 

because the estimated average number 

of annual respondents has increased. 

Additionally, the revised burden and 

cost estimates reflect updated labors 

rates available from the Bureau of Labor 

Statistics.

Director, Collection Strategies Division.

II. Background 

EPA has granted emergency 

exemptions to the following State and 

Federal agencies. The emergency 

exemptions may take the following 

form: Crisis, public health, quarantine, 

or specific. 

Under FIFRA section 18, EPA can 

authorize the use of a pesticide when 

emergency conditions exist. 

Authorizations (commonly called 

emergency exemptions) are granted to 

State and Federal agencies and are of 

four types: 

1. A ‘‘specific exemption’’ authorizes 

use of a pesticide against specific pests 

on a limited acreage in a particular 

State. Most emergency exemptions are 

specific exemptions. 

2. ‘‘Quarantine’’ and ‘‘public health’’ 

exemptions are emergency exemptions 

issued for quarantine or public health 

purposes. These are rarely requested. 

3. A ‘‘crisis exemption’’ is initiated by 

a State or Federal agency (and is 

confirmed by EPA) when there is 

insufficient time to request and obtain 

EPA permission for use of a pesticide in 

an emergency. 

EPA may deny an emergency 

exemption: If the State or Federal 

agency cannot demonstrate that an 

emergency exists, if the use poses 

unacceptable risks to the environment,
