3. OMB Number 1901–0294 4. Three-year extension 5. Mandatory 6. DOE’s Office of Fossil Energy (FE) is delegated the authority to regulate natural gas imports and exports under section 3 of the Natural Gas Act of 1938, 15 U.S.C. 717b. In order to carry out its delegated responsibility, FE requires those persons seeking to import or export natural gas to file an application containing the basic information about the scope and nature of the proposed import/export activity. Historically, FE has collected information on a quarterly and monthly basis regarding import and export transactions. That information has been used to ensure compliance
with the terms and conditions of the authorizations. In addition, the data are used to monitor North American gas trade, which, in turn, enables the Federal government to perform market and regulatory analyses; improve the capability of industry and the government to respond to any future energy-related supply problems; and keep the general public informed of international natural gas trade.

7. Business or other for-profit (or other appropriate type of respondents).

8. There are 12,110 total burdenhours, and 325 total respondents. Shortterm and long term applications are filed annually, and applicants who hold authorizations file a monthly report.

Title: NESHAP for Iron and Steel Foundries (Renewal).

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 2096.04, OMB Control Number 2060–

0543. ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on May 31, 2010. 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 National Emission
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Iron and Steel Foundries (40 CFR part 63, subpart EEEEE) were proposed on December 12, 2002, (67 FR 78274), and promulgated on April 22, 2004, (69 FR 21905). The rule was amended on May 20, 2005 (70 FR 29400) and February 7, 2008 (73 FR 7210). Entities potentially affected by this rule are owners or operators of new and existing iron and steel foundries that are major sources of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions. The rule applies to emissions from metal melting furnaces, scrap pre-heaters, pouring areas, pouring stations, automated conveyor and pallet cooling lines, automated shakeout lines, and mold and core making lines; and fugitive emissions from foundry operations. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart EEEEE.

Owners or operators of the affected
facilities described must make one-timeonly notifications including: Notification of any physical or operational change to an existing facility which may increase the regulated pollutant emission rate; notification of the initial performance test, including information necessary to determine the conditions of the performance test; and performance test measurements and results. Owners or operators must
maintain records of initial and subsequent compliance tests for lead compounds, and identify the date, time, cause, and corrective actions taken for all bag-leak detection alarms. Records of continuous monitoring devices, including parametric monitoring, must be maintained and reported on semiannually.

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. Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part
shall maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the records for at least five years following the date
of such measurements and records. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance and are required of all affected facilities subject to the NESHAP.

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 63, subpart EEEEE, as authorized in sections 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.

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 Number for EPA regulations listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15 are
identified on the form and/or instrument, if applicable.

Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is estimated to average 151 hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose, and 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. All existing ways will have to adjust to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements that 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: Iron
and steel foundries.

Estimated Number of Respondents:

98.

Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:

29,747.

Estimated Total Annual Cost: $2,919,519, which includes $2,519,459


### 11875 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 48 / Friday, March 12, 2010 / Notices

in labor costs, no capital/startup costs, and $400,060 in operation and maintenance (O&M) costs.

Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the labor hours 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, so there is no significant change in the overall burden. Also, there is no change
in the cost burden. Since there are no changes in the regulatory requirements and there is no significant industry growth, the labor hours and cost figures in the previous ICR are used in this ICR and there is no change in burden to industry.
