    Abstract: This standard applies to owners or operators of new, 
modified, or reconstructed facilities at nonmetallic mineral processing 
plants that commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction 
after August 1, 1985. Nonmetallic mineral processing includes the 
following affected facilities: each crusher, grinding mill, screening 
operation, bucket elevator, belt conveyor, bagging operation, storage 
bin, and enclosed truck or railcar loading station. Affected facilities 
in the plant process that are subject to 40 CFR part 60, subpart F for 
Portland Cement NSPS, or subpart I, Asphalt Concrete Plants NSPS, are 
not subject to this NSPS, subpart OOO.
    Respondents must submit the following one-time-only reports: 
notification of the date of construction or reconstruction, 
notification of the actual date of initial startup, notification of any 
physical or operational change to an existing facility which may 
increase the regulated pollutant emission rate, notification of 
demonstration of the continuous emission monitor system (CMS) where the 
CMS is required (wet scrubber), notification of the date of the initial 
performance test, and the results of the initial performance test.
    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 are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter 15. The 
Federal Register document required under 5 CFR 1320.8(d), soliciting 
comments on this collection of information was published on October 29, 
1999; no comments were received.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information on existing facilities is 
estimated to average 13 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;

information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously 
applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to 
respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete
