    Abstract: Owners and operators of petroleum refineries are required 
to comply with reporting and record-keeping requirements for the 
general provisions of 40 CFR part 63, subpart A, as well as for the 
applicable standards found in 40 CFR part 63, subpart CC. This includes 
submitting initial notification reports, 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 the standards.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Existing and new petroleum refining 
process units and emission points located at refineries that are major 
sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAP) emissions.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart CC).
    Estimated number of respondents: 142 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, annually and 
semiannually.

[[Page 15102]]

    Total estimated burden: 528,000 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $54,800,000 (per year), which includes 
$143,000 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance 
costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease in respondent labor 
hours and the total O&M costs from the most-recently approved ICR. The 
decrease in burden is due to adjusting the number of respondents from 
148 to 142. The updated number of respondents is based on the Agency's 
industry analysis conducted for the recent RTR rule amendment, 
documented in EPA ICR Number 1692.08. This estimate is based on 
information from EPA's Petroleum Refinery Database (contains data 
provided by each individual refinery in response to an EPA survey of 
the petroleum refinery industry in 2011) and the Agency's internal data 
sources. However, there is a small adjustment increase in the number of 
responses due to a correction. The previous ICR did not account for 
semiannual heat exchanger system reports in calculating the number of 
responses. This ICR renewal includes this item to be consistent with 
the Table 1 and Table 2 burden calculations.
