ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 

1900.04, OMB Control Number 2060– 

0423. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on October 31, 2009. 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: These regulations apply to 

small municipal waste combustors 

(MWCs) commencing construction after 


PWALKER on DSK8KYBLC1PROD with NOTICES
50794 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 189 / Thursday, October 1, 2009 / Notices 

August 30, 1999, and small MWC units 

commencing reconstruction or 

modification after June 6, 2001, that 

combust greater than 35 tons per day 

(tpd) but less than 250 tpd of municipal 

solid waste. This information collection 

is required as a result of the 

implementation of the New Source 

Performance Standards developed 

under the authority of sections 111 and 

129 of the Clean Air Act. The 

regulations require initial notifications, 

performance tests, and periodic reports. 

Owners or operators also are 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. Owners and operators of 

small MWCs are required to measure, 

record, and report emission rates and 

operating parameters, follow good 

combustion practices, and submit a 

siting analysis. Owners or operators 

subject to these regulations are required 

to maintain records of measurements 

and reports for at least five years. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 1,108 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: Small 

Municipal Waste Combustors. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 2. 

Frequency of Response: Initially, 

semiannually, annually, and on 

occasion. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

9,975. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$1,087,204, which includes $938,068 in 

labor costs, $66,000 in capital/start-up 

costs, and operation and maintenance 

costs of $83,136. 

Changes in the Estimates: The 

adjustment decrease in burden from the 

most recently approved ICR is an 

adjustment due to a decrease in the 

number of respondents, from three to 

two.

Notice of Prevention of Significant 

Deterioration; Final Determination for 

Dominion Energy Brayton Point, 

Somerset, MA 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of final action. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces that on 

May 13, 2009, the Environmental 

Appeals Board (‘‘EAB’’) of EPA denied 

review of the petition for review of a 

Prevention of Significant Deterioration 

(‘‘PSD’’) permit (‘‘Permit’’) that EPA 

New England issued to Dominion 

Energy Brayton Point, LLC 

(‘‘Dominion’’). The Permit was issued 

pursuant to the PSD regulations under 

40 CFR 52.21. 

DATES: The effective date of the EAB’s 

decision, and the Permit, is May 13, 

2009. Pursuant to Section 307(b)(1) of 

the Clean Air Act (‘‘CAA’’), 42 U.S.C. 

7607(b)(1), judicial review of this permit 

decision, to the extent it is available, 

may be sought by filing a petition for 

review in the United States Court of 

Appeals for the First Circuit within 

November 30, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: The relevant documents for 

the Permit are available for public 

inspection during normal business

II. What Is the Background Information? 

III. What Did the EAB Decide? 

I. What Action Is EPA Taking? 

We are notifying the public of a final 

decision by the EAB on the Permit 

issued by EPA New England pursuant to 

the PSD regulations found at 40 CFR 

52.21. 

II. What Is the Background 

Information? 

Dominion operates an existing coalfired electric generating station in 

Somerset, Massachusetts. In March 

2003, Massachusetts ended its 

agreement with EPA to implement the 

PSD program. Based on this action and 

since Massachusetts did not 

subsequently request PSD delegation, 

EPA is currently the PSD permitting 

authority within Massachusetts. 

Dominion submitted a PSD 

application to EPA New England 

requesting approval to construct and 

operate two new cooling water towers at 

its facility in Somerset, Massachusetts. 

After consideration of the PSD 

application, EPA New England issued 

the draft Permit on January 28, 2009, for 

public review and comment. On April 2, 

2009, after providing an opportunity for 

public comment and a public hearing on 

March 2, 2009, EPA issued the final 

Permit. The Permit limits particulate 

matter of 10 microns or less in size and 

particulate matter of 2.5 microns or less 

in size from each cooling water towers 

to 1,066 pounds per day. Subsequent to 

the issuance of the revised Permit, the 

EAB received a petition requesting 

review of the Permit. The EAB denied 

review of the petition. 

III. What Did the EAB Decide? 

The petition, which was filed by 

Bristol County Broadcasting, 

Incorporated, argued that the cooling 

water towers would have a significant 

adverse affect on the petitioner’s AM 

radio transmissions. The EAB denied 

review of this petition on two points. 

First, the petition did not challenge any 

provision of the Permit governing air 

emissions of regulated pollutants. 

Second, the petitioner did not 

participate in the permitting process 

during the public comment period for 

the Permit. Readers interested in more 

detail on the appeal issues raised by the 

petitioner and the reasons for the EAB’s 

denial of review may download EAB’s 

Order Denying Review from the EAB 

Web site at http://www.epa.gov/eab. 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 124.19(f)(1), for 

purposes of judicial review, final agency 

action occurs when a final PSD permit 

is issued and agency review procedures
