1. IDENTIFICATION OF THE INFORMATION COLLECTION

1(a) Title of the Information Collection 

NESHAP for Hazardous Waste Combustors (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart EEE) (Renewal),

EPA ICR Number 1773.11, OMB Control Number 2050-0171. 

1(b) Short Characterization

The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for the regulations 

codified at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart EEE, were largely promulgated on September 30, 1999, and 

subsequently revised on October 12, 2005. These regulations apply to the following types of new and 

existing combustion units that burn hazardous waste: incinerators, cement kilns, lightweight aggregate 

kilns, solid fuel boilers, liquid fuel boilers, and hydrochloric acid production facilities. This information 

in being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart EEE.

Any owner or operator subject to this NESHAP are required to maintain a file of these 

measurements, and retain the file for at least five years following the date of such measurements, 

maintenance reports, and records. 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 U.S. EPA regional 

office.

The paperwork requirements finalized under the authority of the Resource Conservation and 

Recovery Act (RCRA) provisions (40 CFR parts 260 thru 270) that apply to the hazardous waste 

combustors (e.g., general facility standards, manifest system requirements, storage requirements, and 

closure and post-closure care provisions) are not covered by this ICR, and are accounted for in ICR # 

1361.10 (OMB control # 2050-0073). 

2. NEED FOR AND USE OF THE COLLECTION

2(a) Need/Authority for the Collection

The EPA is charged under section 112 of the Clean Air Act, as amended, to establish standards of 

performance for each category or subcategory of major sources and area sources of hazardous air 

pollutants (HAP). These standards are applicable to new or existing sources of HAP and require the 

maximum degree of emission reduction. In addition, section 114(a) states that the Administrator may 

require any owner or operator subject to any requirement of the Clean Air Act to:

 Establish and maintain such records; 

 Make such reports; 

 Install, use, and maintain such audit procedures, or methods; 

 Sample such emissions (in accordance with such procedures or methods, at such 

locations, at such intervals, during such periods, and in such manner as the 

Administrator shall prescribe):

 Keep records on control equipment parameters, production variables or other 

indirect data when direct monitoring of emissions is impractical; 

 Submit compliance certifications in accordance with section 114(a)(3); and 

 Provide such other information as the Administrator may reasonably require.
2

In the Administrator’s judgment, HAP emissions from hazardous waste combustors cause or 

contribute to air pollution that may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare. 

Therefore, this NESHAP were promulgated for this category at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart EEE.

2(b) Practical Utility/Users of the Data

The control of emissions of HAPs from hazardous waste combustors requires not only the 

installation of properly designed equipment, but also the operation and maintenance of that equipment. 

Emissions of HAPs from hazardous waste combustors are the result of operation of the affected facilities. 

The emission standards are achieved by the capture of metal HAP and particulate matter emissions using 

fabric filters or electrostatic precipitators control, removal of acid gas HAP by scrubbing control 

equipment, temperature control for the reduction of dioxins and furans (D/F), operating under good 

combustion conditions for the reduction of organic HAP, and feed input control for the reduction of HAP

if other controls are not used. 

The recordkeeping and reporting requirements in the standard(s) ensure compliance with the 

applicable regulations that were promulgated in accordance with the Clean Air Act. The collected 

information is also used for targeting inspections and as evidence in legal proceedings.

Performance tests are required in order to determine an affected facility’s initial capability to 

comply with the emission standards. Continuous emission monitors are used to ensure compliance with 

the standards at all times. During the performance test a record of the operating parameters under which 

compliance was achieved may be recorded and used to determine compliance in place of a continuous 

emission monitor.

The notifications required in the standards are used to inform the Agency or delegated authority 

when a source becomes subject to the requirements of the regulations. The reviewing authority may then 

inspect the source to check if the pollution control devices are properly installed and operated and leaks 

are being detected and repaired and the standards are being met. The performance test may also be 

observed.

The required periodic reports are used to determine periods of excess emissions, identify 

problems at the facility, verify operation/maintenance procedures and for compliance determinations.

3. NONDUPLICATION, CONSULTATIONS, AND OTHER COLLECTION CRITERIA

3(a) Nonduplication

The information collections covered in this ICR are not available from sources other than the 

respondents. No other Federal agency collection satisfies the statutory requirements of Section 112 of the 

Clean Air Act. None of this information is duplicative of other information collected by other EPA 

offices or other Federal agencies.

3(b) Public Notice

In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), EPA issued a public notice in 

the Federal Register (see 80 FR 20223, April 15, 2015) that it intended to this ICR. The comment period 

ended on June 15, 2015. No comments were received. 

3(c) Consultations
3

For this renewal the following were consulted on burden estimates:

Mel Keener, Coalition for Responsible Waste Incineration, 703-431-7343

Leslie Hulse, American Chemistry Council, 202-249-6131

Robert Tyler, Woodward and Curran, 888-265-8969

Christopher Schwalje, New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, 609-292-1192

Josh Vander Veen, Missouri Department of Natural Resources, 573-751-4817

Siew Kour, Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality, 402-471-3386

As a result of these consultations, the burden estimates for this ICR remain the same. 

3(d) Effects of Less Frequent Collection

EPA has carefully considered and minimized the burden imposed upon the regulated community 

by the regulations. The Agency is confident that the activities required of the respondents are the 

minimum necessary to ensure compliance. EPA also believes that, if these minimal requirements 

specified under the regulations are not met, EPA will be unable to fulfill its congressional mandate to 

protect public health and the environment. Additionally, we have made efforts to integrate monitoring, 

compliance testing, and recordkeeping requirements of both the CAA and RCRA so that the facilities are 

able to avoid the burden of duplicate submissions under two potentially different regulatory compliance 

schemes.

3(e) General Guidelines 

This ICR adheres to the guidelines stated in the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995; OMB’s 

implementing regulations, EPA’s “Information Collection Request Handbook,” and other applicable 

OMB guidance. It is necessary for facilities to retain records for three (3) years for EPA to ensure 

compliance with the regulations. The recordkeeping burden for such a requirement is not significant, and 

has been included in this ICR.

3(f) Confidentiality

Section 3007(b) of RCRA and 40 CFR Part 2, Subpart B, which define EPA’s general policy on 

the public disclosure of information, contain provisions for confidentiality. However, the Agency does 

not anticipate that businesses will assert a claim of confidentiality covering the information collection 

requirements in this ICR. If such claim is made, EPA will treat the information in accordance with the 

regulations cited above. EPA also has ensured that this information collection complies with the Privacy 

Act of 1974 and OMB Circular 108.

3(g) Sensitive Questions

No questions of a sensitive nature are included in any of the information collection requirements.

various sections below.

Compliance with Alternative MACT Standards

(i) Data items
5

Under Section 63.1206(b)(1)(ii), when hazardous waste is not in the combustion chamber (i.e., the 

hazardous waste feed to the combusted has been cutoff-for a period of time not less than the hazardous 

waste residence time), HWCs may elect to show compliance with other applicable MACT standards (such 

as subparts LLL, DDDDD, or NNNNN) in lieu of the HWC standards. Specifically, they must document 

in the operating record compliance with other applicable MACT requirements in lieu of the HWC MACT 

emission standards and operating requirements of Subpart EEE.

(ii) Respondent activities

When hazardous waste is not in the combustion chamber, document in the operating record compliance 

with other applicable MACT requirements in lieu of the requirements of HWC MACT Standards in Part 

63 Subpart EEE.

Extension of Compliance with Emission Standards

(i) Data items

Under Sections 63.1206(b)(4), 63.6(i), and 63.1213 HWCs may request EPA for an extension of 

compliance with the emission standards of Subpart EEE. Section 63.6(i)(4) allows up to one (1) 

additional year to comply with the standard. The request for the one-year extension shall be submitted 

not later than four (4) months before the affected source’s compliance date.

In addition, under Section 63.6(i)(5), existing sources that have installed best available control technology 

(BACT) or technology required to meet lowest achievable emission rate (LAER) prior to the MACT rule 

may request that the EPA grant an extension allowing the source five (5) years from the date on which 

such installation was achieved to comply with the standard. Any request for the five-year extension must 

be submitted not later than 120 days after the promulgation date of the standard.

As required by Section 63.6(i)(6), any request for an extension of compliance must include the following 

information:

 A description of the controls to be installed to comply with the standard; 

 A compliance schedule;

 For the five-year extension, all information needed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the 

installation of BACT or technology to meet LAER.

Under Section 63.10(d)(4), affected sources required to submit progress reports as a condition of 

receiving an extension of compliance must submit such report to the EPA by the dates specified in the 

written extension of compliance.

(ii) Respondent activities

 Prepare and submit a request for an extension of compliance; and 

 Prepare and submit a progress report, as applicable.

Changes in Design, Operation, or Maintenance 

(i) Data items
6

Under Section 63.1206(b)(5)(i), if a HWC plans to change the design, operation, or maintenance practices 

of the source in a manner that may adversely affect compliance with any emission standard that is not 

monitored with a CEMS, the HWC must notify EPA at least 60 days prior to the change, unless 

circumstances are documented that dictate such prior notice is not feasible. The notification must include:

A description of the changes and which emission standards may be affected; and a comprehensive 

performance test schedule and test plan that will document compliance with the affected emission 

standards.

The HWC must conduct a comprehensive performance test to document compliance with the affected 

emission standards, establish operating parameter limits, and submit to the EPA a Notification of 

Compliance under Sections 63.1207(j) and 63.1210(d).

Additionally, if it is determined that a change will not adversely affect compliance with the emission 

standards or operating requirements, the HWC must document the change in the operating record upon 

making such change. The performance test plan, Documentation of Compliance, Notification of 

Compliance, and start-up, shutdown, and malfunction plan must be revised, as necessary, to reflect these 

changes.

Additionally, under Section 63.1206(b)(5)(i)(C), a request may be made to burn hazardous waste for more 

than 720 hours for purposes other than testing or pre-testing, after making a change in the design or 

operation that could affect compliance with the emission standards and prior to submitting a revised 

Notification of Compliance.

(ii) Respondent activities

 Prepare and submit a notification of change in design, operation, or maintenance; 

 Conduct a comprehensive performance test to document compliance with emissions standards 

and establish operating limits;

 Document change in the operating record if it is determined that the change will not adversely 

affect compliance with emission standards or operating requirements;

 Revise, as necessary, the performance test plan, Documentation of Compliance, Notification of 

Compliance, and start-up, shutdown, and malfunction plan to reflect changes that will not 

adversely affect compliance with emission standards or operating requirements; and

 Request approval to burn hazardous waste for additional operating time after change has been 

made.

Use of Previous DRE Test Results to Demonstrate Compliance with the MACT DRE 

Standard

(i) Data Items

Under Section 63.1206(b)(7), previously collected DRE test results may be used to demonstrate 

compliance with the DRE standard unless the sources is a cement kiln or incinerator that feeds hazardous 

waste at locations other than the normal flame zone or the source has been modified in a 

 (ii) Respondent Activities

For sources using historical DRE data in lieu of conducting a new DRE test, provide DRE data 

that meet quality assurance objectives.
7

Applicability of Particulate Matter and Opacity Standards during Particulate Matter CEMS 

Correlation Tests

(i) Data items

Under Section 63.1206(b)(8), any particulate matter and opacity standards at 40 CFR 60, 61, 63, 264, 

265, and 266 that are applicable to a HWC do not apply while sources conduct particulate matter 

continuous emissions monitoring system (CEMS) correlation tests (i.e., correlation with manual stack 

methods). Sources must develop a particulate matter CEMS correlation test plan that includes the 

following information:

 Number of test conditions and number of runs for each test condition; 

 Target particulate matter emission level for each test condition; 

 How the source plans to modify operation to attain the desired particulate matter emission 

levels; and

 Anticipated normal particulate matter emission levels.

Under Section 63.1206(b)(8)(iii)(B), the test plan must be submitted to the Administrator for approval at 

least 90 calendar days before the correlation test is scheduled to be conducted.

A waiver of the PM and opacity standards during PM CEMS correlation tests may be requested beyond 

the standard allowed time of 96 hours.

 (ii) Respondent activities

 Prepare and submit a particulate matter CEMS correlation test plan.

 If desired, prepare and submit a waiver request for additional hours of PM CEMS correlation 

testing beyond the standard 96 hours.

Hazardous Waste Residence Time

 (i) Data items

Under 63.1206(b)(11), HWCs must document the hazardous waste residence time in the operating record, 

and include it in the comprehensive performance test plan, Documentation of Compliance, and 

Notification of Compliance.

(ii) Respondent activities

Include the hazardous waste residence time in the operating record, test work plan, and 

Documentation and Notification of Compliance documents.

Startup, Shutdown, and Malfunction Plan 

 (i) Data items

Under Sections 63.1206(c)(2) and 63.6(e)(3), HWCs must develop and implement a written Startup, 

Shutdown, and Malfunction Plan that describes procedures for operating and maintaining the source 
8

during periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction. It also contains a program of corrective action for 

malfunctioning process and air pollution control equipment that is used to comply with the relevant 

standard. The plan must also identify all routine or otherwise predictable potential CMS malfunctions. 

The plan must be developed by the source’s compliance date. The SS&M plan must be submitted to the 

Administrator for review and approval.

When actions taken during a startup, shutdown, or malfunction (including actions taken to correct a 

malfunction) are consistent with the procedures specified in the affected source’s SS&M Plan, the source 

must keep records for that event that demonstrate that the procedures specified in the plan were followed. 

These records may take the form of a “checklist” or other effective form of recordkeeping that confirms 

compliance with the SS&M Plan for that event. 

If an action taken is not consistent with the procedures specified in the plan, the source must report such 

actions within 2 working days of commencing actions inconsistent with the plan, followed by a letter 

within 7 working days after the end of the event.

The startup, shutdown, and malfunction provisions exempt sources from the Subpart EEE emission 

standards and operating requirements during startup, shutdown, and malfunctions. The rule continues to 

subject sources to RCRA requirements during malfunctions, unless they comply with alternative MACT 

requirements including expanding the startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan to minimize the frequency 

and severity of malfunctions, and submit the plan to the delegated CAA authority for review and 

approval. Sources that burn hazardous waste during startup and shutdown, are required to include waste 

feed restrictions and operating conditions and limits in the startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan. 

Sources are also required to include in the startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan a requirement to 

comply with the automatic hazardous waste feed cutoff system during startup, shutdown, and 

malfunctions.

The source must keep the written SS&M Plan on record for the life of the affected source or until the 

affected source is no longer subject to the provisions of 40 CFR Part 63. The plan is to be made available 

for inspection by the EPA, upon request. In addition, if the plan is revised, the source must keep previous 

versions of the plan on record for a period of 5 years after each revision to the plan.

Under Section 63.1206(c)(2)(ii)(C) changes to the plan that may increase HAP emissions must be 

requested in writing within 5 days of making the change.

(ii) Respondent Activities

 Develop, submit, and implement, a Startup, Shutdown, and Malfunction Plan, and have it 

reviewed and approved by the Administrator (or alternatively, contain procedures in the RCRA 

permit); 

 Submit additional information if requested by Administrator.

 Request approval in writing from EPA within 5 days after making a change to the Startup, 

Shutdown, and Malfunction Plan that will significantly increase emissions of hazardous air 

pollutants;

 Make the plan available for inspection, if requested by the EPA; 

 Keep the plan on record for the life of the affected source or until the affected source is no longer 

subject to the provisions of 40 CFR Part 63; and 

 Keep previous versions of the plan on record for a period of 5 years after each revision, if the plan 

is revised.
9

Automatic Waste Feed Cutoffs (AWFCO) 

(i) Data items

Under Section 63.1206(c)(3)(v), if there is an exceedance of an emission standard or operating 

requirement after any AWFCO, irrespective of whether hazardous waste is in the combustion 

chamber, HWCs must:

 Investigate the cause of the AWFCO;

 Take appropriate corrective measures to minimize future AWFCOs; and 

 Record the findings and corrective measures in the operating record.

Section 63.1206(c)(3)(vi) requires that, for each set of 10 exceedances of an emission standard or 

operating requirement while hazardous waste remains in the combustion chamber during a 60-day 

block period, a written report must be submitted within 5 calendar days of the 10th exceedance 

detailing the results of the investigation and corrective measures taken.

Section 63.1206(c)(3)(vii) requires that the AWFCO system and associated alarms must be tested at 

least weekly to verify operability, unless it is documented in the operating record that weekly 

inspections will unduly restrict or upset operations and that less frequent inspection will be adequate. 

At a minimum, operability testing must be conducted at least monthly. AWFCO operability test 

procedures and results must be documented and recorded in the operating record.

Section 63.1206(c)(3)(viii) allows for ramping down the waste feedrate of pumpable hazardous waste 

over a period not to exceed one minute. Sources electing to ramp down the waste feed must document 

ramp down procedures in the operating and maintenance plan. The procedures must specify that the 

ramp down begins immediately upon initiation of automatic waste feed cutoff and the procedures 

must prescribe a bona fide ramping down

(ii) Respondent activities

 Investigate the cause of an AWFCO, take appropriate corrective measures to minimize future 

AWFCOs, and record the findings and corrective measures in the operating record;

 Develop and submit a written report documenting excessive exceedances (i.e., a set of 10 

exceedances during a 60-day block period) and result of the investigation and corrective 

measures taken;

 Test the AWFCO system and associated alarms weekly and document and record AWFCO 

operability test procedures and result in the operating record; or,

 Alternatively, document in the operating record that weekly inspections will unduly restrict or 

upset operations and test the AWFCO system monthly and document and record AWFCO 

operability test procedures and result in the operating record; and

 Document in the operating and maintenance plan ramp down procedures, as applicable.

ESV Openings 

(i) Data items

Under Section 63.1206(c)(4)(ii), HWCs must develop an emergency safety vent(ESV) plan, comply with 

the plan, and keep the plan in the operator record. The ESV plan must detail procedures for stopping the 
10

waste feed, shutting down the combustor, and maintaining temperature and negative pressure in the 

combustion chamber. Additionally, Section 63.1206(c)(4)(iii) requires that, after any ESV opening that is 

not a result of a malfunction, and which occurs when hazardous waste is in the combustion chamber, the 

HWC must:

 Investigate the cause of the ESV opening;

 Take appropriate corrective measures to minimize such future ESV openings, and record the 

findings and corrective measures in the operating record;

 Document whether the source remains in compliance with applicable standards; and

 Submit a written report to the Administrator if there is non-compliance (within 5 days of the 

ESV opening).

 (ii) Respondent activities

 Develop an ESV plan and keep the plan in the operating record; 

 Investigate the cause of the ESV openings, take appropriate corrective measures to minimize 

such future ESV openings, and record the findings and corrective measures in the operating 

record; and

 Document whether the ESV caused non-compliance with applicable emissions standards.

 Develop and submit a written report within 5 days of the event documenting the ESV opening 

and result of the investigation and corrective measures taken if non-compliance with 

applicable emissions standards.

Combustion System Leaks

(i) Data items

Under Section 63.1206(c)(5), combustion system leaks of hazardous air pollutants must be controlled by 

either:

 Keeping the combustion zone sealed to prevent combustion system leaks; or 

 Maintaining the maximum combustion zone pressure lower than ambient pressure using an 

instantaneous monitor; or

 Upon prior written approval of the administrator, an alternative means of control to provide 

control of combustion system leaks equivalent to maintenance of combustion zone pressure 

lower than ambient pressure.

 Upon prior written approval of the administrator, other techniques which can be demonstrated 

to prevent fugitive emissions without use of instantaneous pressure limits.

The method used for control of combustion system leaks must be specified in the operating record, and 

also included in the comprehensive performance test plan and Notification of Compliance.

(ii) Respondent activities

 Prepare and submit a request to use an alternative means of control to provide control of 

combustion system leaks; and

 Specify in the operating record, the comprehensive performance test plan, and in the 

Notification of compliance the method used for control of combustion system leaks. If 

applicable the recording frequency of the pressure monitor must be specified.
11

Operator Training and Certification

(i) Data items

Under Section 63.1206(c)(6), HWCs must establish a training and certification program for all categories 

of personnel whose activities may reasonably be expected to directly affect emissions of hazardous air 

pollutants from the source.

Each training program must be of a technical level commensurate with the person’s job duties specified in 

the training manual. The operator training and certification program must be recorded in the operating 

record. Control room operators are required to be on duty at source at all times the source is in operation. 

The training and certification program for control room operators may be

 Developed by the source and be site specific basis, and must follow EPA prescribed training 

topics outlined in 63.1206(c)(6)(v) or;

 A State program, or in the case of incinerator operators only

 Program meeting ASME standards QHO-1-1994 or QHO-1a-1996 or. QHO-1-2004 

Control room operators must complete an annual review or refresher course as well.

(ii) Respondent activities

 Establish a training and certification program for all employees.

 Provide training and certification of control room operators under a source-developed 

program or state program

 Provide annual refresher training for control room operators.

 Keep records of personnel training and certification.

Operating and Maintenance Plan

(i) Data items

Section 63.1206(c)(7) requires HWC’s to prepare and at all times operate according to a operation and 

maintenance plan. The operating and maintenance plan must describe in detail procedures for operation, 

inspection, maintenance, and corrective measures for all components of the combustor, including 

associated pollution control equipment, that could affect emissions of regulated hazardous air pollutants.

The plan must prescribe how the HWC will operate and maintain the combustor in a manner consistent 

with good air pollution control practices for minimizing emissions at least to the levels achieved during 

the comprehensive performance test. The plan must be recorded in the operating record.

(ii) Respondent Activities

Prepare an operation and maintenance plan and record the plan in the operating record.

BLDS and PMDS Requirements

(i) Data items
12

For units with fabric filters, a “bag leak” detectors that meet the specifications in 63.1206 (c ) (8) (ii) or a 

particulate matter detector system that meets the specification in 63.1206 (c ) (9)must be used to show 

compliance as part of the operating and maintenance plan. The device must be equipped with an audible 

alarm. The OMP must outline procedures to follow in the event that the alarm limit is exceeded. EPA 

must be notified when excessive bag leak detection system exceedances occur. (Specifically if the alarm 

set point is exceeded more than 5% of the time in any six month block period).

For units with electrostatic precipitator or ionizing wet scrubbers, continuous particulate matter detection 

systems must be used if alternate site-specific operating limits are not requested and approved under 

Section 62.1209(m)(1)(iv). The device must be equipped with an audible alarm. The OMP must outline 

procedures to follow in the event that the alarm limit is exceeded. EPA must be notified when excessive 

bag leak detection system exceedances occur. (Specifically if the alarm set point is exceeded more than

If electing to comply with the alternative risk-based HCl and Cl2 emissions standards, you must submit a 

request with all required supporting information at least one year before the comprehensive performance 

test is to be conducted. This includes: a finding that acid sensitive waters would not be impacted; 

documentation on all modeling; and documentation that the risk based emissions limit does not exceed 

the MACT standard.

(ii) Respondent activities

Prepare and submit a request for alternative risk based HCl and Cl2 limits.

Additional HCl Production Furnace Requirements

 (i) Data items

HCl Production Furnaces that burn hazardous wastes are required to meet 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart 

NNNNN hazardous air pollutant emissions standards from HCl product management activities, 

specifically for HCl storage tanks, HCl transfer operations, and leaking equipment in HCl/Cl2 service. 

Requirements include demonstration testing or an engineering evaluation to document compliance with 

storage tank and transfer operations standards, and implementing a “Leak Detection and Repair” plan for 

any potentially leaking equipment. Application of Subpart NNNNN standards for HCl process vents for 

hazardous waste burning HCl Production Furnaces would continue to be exempted.

 (ii) Respondent activities

For HCl Production Furnaces that are under 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart NNNNN, comply with emissions 

standards for HCl product management.

For HCl storage tanks and transfer operations either (1) conduct HCl emissions performance testing, or 

(2) conduct a design evaluation which demonstrates that the tank or transfer control device achieves the 

required control efficiency.
39

For leaking equipment, comply with work practices standards that include preparing and implementing a 

“Leak Detection and Repair” plan, putting it in the operating record, and having it reviewed by the EPA.

5(b) Collection Methodology and Management
45

For the regulated community, much of the ICR activity is comprised of recordkeeping requirements that 

are typically submitted by mail directly (or computer files) to EPA for review. Some recordkeeping 

information, however, would also be kept in facility files. This requires the implementing authority to 

visit and collect from the facility any information that needs to be reviewed.

Agency management of collected information includes review of information, making determinations, 

and filing and storing information collected. In collecting and analyzing the information required for 

HWCs, the Agency uses electronic equipment, including telephone systems, personal computers, 

electronic mail, and database software, as appropriate. EPA ensures the accuracy and completeness of the 

collected information by reviewing each submittal.

5(c) Small Entity Flexibility

EPA has considered the reporting and recordkeeping burdens of the rule for small businesses. The 

regulations allow much of the information requirements be kept in facility records rather than in 

submittals to EPA, thus reducing time and costs of providing the information.

Additionally, EPA has conducted an incremental assessment of cost savings or burdens that may result 

from the proposed MACT Replacement Standards on couple of Phase II HWC facilities that are identified 

as small businesses. Based on the analysis of available data, we conclude that there would not be a 

significant economic impact to any of the potentially impacted small business combustor companies 

resulting from this proposed rule. For details of the analysis, see the Regulatory Impact Analysis 

contained in the docket to the HWC MACT Replacement Rule.

5(d) Collection Schedule

All of the ICR requirements have clearly defined reporting schedules. For example, these include:

 Periodic -- Comprehensive performance test plans and Notification of Compliances are required 

to be submitted in a periodic, well defined, manner. 

 One-time -- Construction / reconstruction applications, alternative monitoring requests, extension 

of compliance waivers, operating limit waivers, are generally required on a one-time or as needed 

basis.

 Intermittent -- AWFCO and ESV opening reports, test waivers, inhibitor and carbon substitution 

requests, CEMS evaluation reports, are submitted on an as needed basis with no defined schedule.

6. ESTIMATING THE BURDEN AND COST OF THE COLLECTION

6(a) Estimating Respondent Burden

EPA estimates respondent burden hours and costs for all the information collection requirements covered 

by this ICR in Exhibit 1. Exhibit 1 shows for each activity the burden hours (total and by labor type) per 

respondent, as well as the overall burden hours for all respondents.

6(b) Estimating Respondent Costs

Exhibit 1 estimates the annual costs to respondents based on the cost of labor, operation and maintenance 

(O&M), and capital.

(i) Estimating Labor Costs for Private
46

EPA estimates an average hourly respondent labor cost (including fringe and overhead) of 

$114.93 for legal staff, $98.64 for managerial staff, $78.25 for technical staff, and $38.02 for clerical 

staff. These respondent labor costs were obtained from the previously approved ICR (i.e., EPA ICR 

Number 1773.10, dated March 12, 2012), and updated to 2015 levels using Employment Cost Indexes 

developed by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

(ii) Estimating Labor Costs for State Agencies

EPA estimates an average hourly respondent labor cost (including fringe and overhead) of $60.58

for legal staff, $56.86 for managerial staff, $34.02 for technical staff, and $21.70 for clerical staff. These 

respondent labor costs were obtained from another ICR (EPA ICR Number 0976.17).

(iii) Estimating Operating and Maintenance Costs 

Operating and maintenance (O&M) costs are those costs associated with a paperwork requirement 

incurred continually over the life of the ICR. They are defined by the Paper Reduction Act as “the 

recurring dollar amount of cost associated with O&M or purchasing services.” For this ICR, O&M costs 

include:

 Preparation of paper copies ($0.04/page).

 Transmission by U.S. mail ($10/package via registered mail).

 Recordkeeping in file cabinets.

 Operation, maintenance, calibration, and testing of continuous monitoring systems and 

continuous emissions monitors, with costs based on recent quotes from instrument vendors.

 Feedstream sampling and analysis.

 Comprehensive performance compliance testing, with costs based on costs from recent conducted 

testing programs.

(iv) Estimating Capital / Start up Costs

Capital equipment costs usually include any produced physical good needed to provide the needed 

requested information, such as measuring and monitoring equipment, machinery, and computers. For this 

ICR, capital / start-up costs include:

Continuous monitoring and continuous emissions monitoring systems, 

File cabinets for records storage, and 

Other miscellaneous equipment items needed to meet the recordkeeping and reporting requirements.

(v) Annualizing Capital Costs

One time upfront capital equipment costs are annualized over the expected lifetime of the equipment 

using the standard discounting rate of 7%.

6(c) Estimating Agency Burden and Cost

EPA estimates Agency burden hours and costs associated with all the requirements covered in this ICR in 

Exhibit 2. EPA OSW Headquarters, Regional, and State offices will be involved in these activities. 

Burden is due to review of test workplans, petitions, notifications, and requests.
47

Hourly wage rates for the Agency are estimated at $90.90 for legal staff, $77.92 for managerial staff, 

$56.05 for technical staff, $31.01 for and clerical staff. Rates are based on the Federal employee labor 

rates available at http://www.opm.gov/oca/12tables/html /gs_h.pdf. These rates were increased by 60% to 

include fringe benefits and overhead. We assumed that the government employee labor rates are GS-7, 

Step 6 for clerical; GS-13, Step 1 for technical; GS-15, Step 1 for managerial; and GS15, Step 6 for

lawyers. 

6(d) Estimating Respondent Universe & Total Burden & Costs Respondent Universe

Based on available data, we estimate that the respondent universe of HWCs now consists of 192

hazardous waste combustion units with a breakdown of various source categories given in table below:

 

Hazardous Waste Combustion Unit Number

Incinerators 76

Cement Kilns 14

Lightweight Aggregate Kilns 4

Liquid Fuel Boilers 78

Solid Fuel Boilers 7

HCl Production Furnaces 13

TOTAL 192

 

Total Burden and Costs

The following discusses the type and number of sources for which each of the specific ICR requirements 

is estimated to apply. Exhibit 1 shows the labor hours and labor category estimates, and the O&M and 

annualized capital costs, required for each of the specific ICR activities.

Standards for Hazardous Waste Burning Incinerators, Cement Kilns, and Lightweight Aggregate 

Kilns

Emission Averaging for Cement Kilns with In-line Kiln Raw Mills

We estimate that 3 cement kilns with in-line kiln raw mills will comply with the emission averaging 

requirements for kilns of this type. Thus, they will conduct a performance test when the raw mill is online and when the mill is off-line, and include the averaging procedures in their Notification of 

Compliance and operating record. We note that these procedures are similar to that currently required 

under RCRA BIF regulations.

No specific additional recordkeeping or reporting requirements beyond those required of the current 

RCRA regulations 

Compliance with the Standards and Operating Requirements 

Compliance with Alternative MACT Standards

It is estimated that 5% of sources will document in the operating record compliance with alternative 

applicable Clean Air Act requirements and standards. 

Extension of Compliance with Emission Standards
48

It is estimated that 20% of all facilities will apply for an extension of compliance with emission standards, 

of which all will be granted extensions

Changes in Design, Operation, or Maintenance

It is estimated that 50% of the sources will be making design, operation, and maintenance changes to 

comply with the MACT rule and document change in operating record. These changes will not initiate 

additional comprehensive performance testing beyond the initial testing that is required.

Use of Previous DRE Test Results to Demonstrate Compliance with DRE MACT Standards

It is estimated that 75% of sources will request the use of previous DRE test results for demonstrating 

compliance with the MACT DRE standard. 

Applicability of Particulate Matter and Opacity Standards during Particulate Matter 

CEMS Correlation Tests

It is anticipated that 39 sources (among all HWC) will conduct PM CEMS correlation testing and request 

a waiver of PM and opacity standards during the testing. (This includes all units with fabric filters and 

about 10% of sources with electrostatic precipitators or ionizing wet scrubbers). It is estimated that none 

of these sources will request an extension of the 96 hours allowed for the waiver.

Hazardous Waste Residence Time

All sources will include an estimate of hazardous waste residence time in the comprehensive performance 

test plan. However, we anticipate that all sources (with the exception of 25% of the Phase I sources) have 

already submitted comprehensive test plans.

Startup, Shutdown, and Malfunction Plan

All sources will develop a startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan. 

Automatic Waste Feed Cutoff (AWFCO)

It is estimated that:

 All sources will have 2 AWFCO per year; 

 10% will have to file an excessive exceedances report (i.e., >10 AWFCOs in any 60-day block 

period) per year;

 50% will conduct weekly AWFCO system inspections, while 50% will conduct monthly system 

testing.

 All will document in the operating record the use of ramp down procedures. 

ESV Openings

It is estimated that 50% of hazardous waste incinerators have ESVs, and will develop an ESV operating 

plan. On average, each unit will have 3 ESV openings per year.

Combustion System Leaks
49

It is estimated that 50% of all sources will request approval to use an alternative means to provide control 

of combustion system leaks (control through a positively sealed combustion chamber). These facilities 

must specify in their operating record and comprehensive performance test plan the method used for 

control of combustion system leaks. 

Operator Training and Certification

It is estimated that all commercial incinerators and 75% of other sources currently have a sufficient 

operating training and certification program. Other facilities will likely develop a site-specific training 

and certification program. 

Operation and Maintenance Plan

All facilities will develop an operation and maintenance plan. 

BLDS/PMDS Requirements

All units with fabric filters (about 34 sources), will have to purchase, install, and operate bag leak 

detection systems. It is estimated that of the sources with ESPs or IWSs (about 45 sources), 90% will 

request to use operating parameter limits instead of continuous particulate detectors.

Performance Testing Requirements

Comprehensive Performance Test (CPT)

All HWCs are required conduct a comprehensive performance testing to meet the Replacement Rule. We 

conduct a comprehensive during the period of effectiveness of the ICR.

Comprehensive Performance testing could be combined with the testing required under current RCRA 

requirements, but the performance standards will vary. Moreover, methods used to establish operating 

parameter limits will vary between the RCRA and MACT. Therefore we estimate additional costs for 

HWC associated with the CPT.

Additionally for units that do not have numerical PCDD/PCDF standards (e.g., all HCl Production 

furnaces, solid boilers and liquid boilers that do not have dry air pollution control devices, and units 

which have not yet made PCDD/PCDF measurements – 6 solid boilers and 37 liquid boilers, 1 HCl 

Production Furnace) will be required to conduct a one-time PCDD/PCDF test. Additionally, it is 

estimated that all LWAKs will choose to comply with the requirement of rapidly quenching their exhaust 

gases to below 400°F at the kiln exit instead of the numerical dioxin/furan standards. However, all these 

LWAKs have made PCDD/PCDF measurements and thus it is estimated that they would not require an 

additional one time PCDD/PCDF test.

Confirmatory Performance Test

For all sources that have a numerical PCDD/PCDF standard (Incinerators, Cement Kilns and, and dry 

APCD equipped liquid boilers) confirmatory testing for PCDD/PCDF is required every 2 1⁄2 years after 

the Comprehensive performance test. We also estimate that all Phase II Units (Boilers and Hydrochloric 

acid production furnaces) will perform a confirmatory test during the period of effectiveness of the ICR.

Data in Lieu of the Comprehensive Performance Test
50

It is estimated that 10% of all sources will submit a request to use previous emissions test data to serve as 

documentation of compliance with emission standards. 

Notification of Performance Test and CMS Performance Evaluation, and Approval of Test 

Plan and CMS Performance Evaluation Plan

All facilities will submit a notification of intent to conduct a performance test. These facilities will also 

be required to prepare and submit a site-specific comprehensive performance and CMS performance test 

plan. However, it is estimated that 90% of facilities have already met this requirement since no change to 

HWC standards has occurred in the last 3 years.

It is estimated that 1 source per year will reschedule their performance test due to upgrades made to their 

devices and thus be required to submit a rescheduled notification of intent to conduct a performance test.

Additionally, 25% of units submitting a site-specific performance test plan will be requested to submit 

additional relevant information.

Notification of Compliance

All facilities will submit a Notification of Compliance every time they complete a comprehensive 

performance test. This includes submission of test results of the CPT.

Waiver or Time Extension of Performance Test

It is estimated that 10% of facilities conducting the comprehensive performance test will apply for a 

waiver or time extension, due to contingencies that occur from time to time.

Monitoring Requirements

Continuous Emissions Monitoring Systems (CEMS) and Continuous Opacity Monitoring Systems 

(COMS)

All facilities are already required to monitor for carbon monoxide (CO) or hydrocarbons (HC) and 

oxygen emissions under the current regulatory requirements, thus there is no new capital investment 

burden on the units during the validity period of this ICR. However, the operation and maintenance 

burden for these equipments will continue as before.

Continuous Monitoring Systems (CMS)

All facilities are currently equipped with all CMS required with the MACT rule. Thus, there is no capital 

investment burden on the units during the validity period of this ICR. However, the operation and 

maintenance burden for these equipments will continue as before.
51

Feedstream Analysis Plan

All HWCs have already developed and implemented feedstream analysis plans under current RCRAand 

MACT requirements (referred to as the waste analysis plan). There is no incremental burden for this 

requirement. 

Alternative Compliance Monitoring Requirements for Standards other than those 

Monitored with a CEMS

It is estimated that 10% of all facilities will apply for and receive approval to use alternative monitoring 

requirements to document compliance with the emission standards of Subpart EEE other than CO or HC 

which are monitored with a CEMS. 

Use of CEMS in lieu of Operating Parameter Limits; or Alternative Methods in lieu of 

CEMS

It is estimated that no facilities will make a request to use alternative operating parameters or methods to 

CEMS or CEMS in lieu of operating parameters. 

Destruction and Removal Efficiency

It is estimated that all currently operating HWCs have equipment needed for the MACT DRE monitoring 

requirements. 

Dioxins and Furans

It is estimated that all currently operating HWCs have equipment needed for the MACT PCDD/PCDF 

monitoring requirements. It is estimated that no facilities will chose to use a CEMS for compliance 

monitoring.

Mercury

It is estimated that all currently operating HWCs have equipment needed for the MACT Hg monitoring 

requirements. It is estimated that no source will chose to use a CEMS for compliance monitoring and that 

10% of sources will make a request to set feedrate limits with extrapolation. 

Particulate Matter

For all sources, it is estimated that all currently operating HWCs have the equipment needed to comply 

with the MACT PM monitoring requirements.

Semivolatile Metals and Low Volatile Metals

It is estimated that all currently operating HWCs have the equipment needed to comply with the MACT 

SVM and LVM monitoring requirements. It is estimated that 10% of facilities will make a request to set 

feedrate limits with extrapolation and no facilities will chose to use a CEMS for compliance monitoring. 

Total Chlorine (HCl and Chlorine Gas)
52

It is estimated that all currently operating HWCs have the equipment needed for the MACT total chlorine 

monitoring requirements. It is estimated that no facility will choose to use to install CEMS for 

compliance monitoring. 

Combustion Chamber Pressure

It is anticipated that all facilities will comply with the combustion leak requirements through a request to 

keep the combustion chamber fully sealed. 

Operating under Different Modes of Operation

It is estimated that 50% of all facilities will perform the comprehensive performance test under two or 

more operating modes. These facilities will be required to document what operating mode they are in 

during subsequent on-going day to day operations. 

CMS Performance Evaluation

As part of the comprehensive performance test, HWCs will submit a CMS quality control program, 

notification of performance evaluation and additional notification requirements, we estimate that 50% of 

sources have already complied with this requirement. HWCs are also required to submit performance 

evaluation test plan, and conduct a CMS performance test. We estimate 60% of sources would submit 

test plans and conduct performance testing along with their comprehensive performance testing.

Also, it is estimated that EPA will also request additional relevant information for the site-specific CMS 

performance test plan from 10% of the sources performing the test. 

Notification Requirements

Notification of Intent to Comply

All Phase II and Phase I sources will prepare a draft NIC, notify the public about a NIC meeting, conduct 

the NIC meeting, prepare a final NIC with meeting comments, and submit the NIC to EPA. All Phase II 

and Phase I sources will complete the progress report. However, we estimate that 90% of the facilities 

will have completed this requirement at the time this ICR is in place.

Initial Notifications

All facilities will submit an initial notification. However, we estimate that 90% of the facilities will have 

completed this requirement at the time this ICR is in place.

Adjustment to Time Periods or Postmark Deadlines for Submittal and Review of Required 

Communications

We estimate that 25% of all facilities will submit a request for an adjustment to a time period or postmark 

deadline. 

Change in Information Already Provided

It is estimated that 25% of all facilities will submit change(s) to information already provided. 
53

Request to Reduce Frequency of Excess Emissions and CMS Performance Reports

It is estimated that 10% of facilities will submit a request to reduce frequency of excess emissions and 

continuous system performance reports from a quarterly (or more frequent basis). 

Waiver of Recordkeeping or Reporting Requirements

It is estimated that 1% of all facilities will submit a waiver of recordkeeping or reporting requirements. 

Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements

Periodic and Immediate Startup, Shutdown, and Malfunction Reports

It is anticipated that 25% of facilities will take actions during a startup, shutdown, or malfunction that are 

consistent with the procedures specified in the facility's startup, shutdown, or malfunction plan. These 

facilities are required to submit a periodic startup, shutdown, and malfunction report. Another 10% of 

facilities will take actions that are not consistent with procedures specified in their plans. These facilities 

acquired to submit an immediate startup, shutdown, and malfunction report. 

Excess Emissions and Continuous Monitoring System Performance Report and Summary 

Report

It is anticipated that all facilities will submit an excess emissions and continuous monitoring system 

performance report and summary report. 

General Recordkeeping Requirements

It is estimated that it will take 40 hours each year for each of the HWC facilities to maintain copies of all 

required information (information must be retained for five years). Additionally, it is estimated that to 

maintain files for the required five years, facilities will purchase file cabinets. 

Additional Recordkeeping Requirements for Sources with Continuous Monitoring Systems

All sources will need to maintain copies of all required information for continuous monitoring systems. 

Documentation of Compliance

It is anticipated that all facilities will develop a Documentation of Compliance to be included in their 

operating records

Data Compression

It is estimated that 25% of facilities will submit a request for approval to use data compression 

techniques. 

Compliance Date Be Extended To Install Pollution Prevention or Waste Minimization Controls

It is estimated that 10% of sources will submit a one-time request for a compliance extension due to the 

installation of controls, and that another 10% will submit a one-time request for a compliance extension 

for waste minimization purposes. 
54

Quality Assurance Procedures for Continuous Emissions Monitors Used For Hazardous Waste 

Combustors 

Performance Evaluation

All sources must meet the QA requirements for CEMS. These requirements are very similar to those 

currently required under RCRA. 

Use of Alternative CEMS Spans

It is estimated that no source will submit requests to use an alternative CEMS span. 

Miscellaneous Requirements

Alternative Risk Based Chlorine Standards

It is estimated that 25% of Phase I and Phase II facilities will request to comply with the alternative risk 

based chlorine standards.

Additional HCl Production Furnaces Requirements

It is estimated that 10% of the HCl Production Furnaces will be required to comply with HCl product 

management requirements of 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart NNNNN.

(ii) The Agency Tally

Some of the Agency burden will be shared by the States authorized to administer their own 

RCRA program (under section 3006 of RCRA). We estimated in the expiring ICR that 2/3rd of this 

burden and costs will be incurred by the federal government (i.e., EPA regional offices) while 1/3rd will 

be incurred by the authorized States. We still continue with the same estimation. Exhibits 2 and 3 list 
55

these hours and costs for the States and the federal government. Tables 2 and 3 summarize this 

information of Exhibits 2 and 3. As shown in Table 2, the burden on the states is 4,013 hours and $2,097

in Capital and O&M costs. The federal burden, as indicated in Table 3 is 8,027 labor hours and a Capital/

O&M cost of $4,194.

6(f) Reasons for Change in Burden

There is a decrease of 66 hours in the annual burden associated with this renewal. This small

decrease is due to the slight decrease in the number of incinerators from last time. The costs were 

updated to 2015 levels and this caused an increase of $595 in capital and O&M costs. 

6(g) Burden Statement

 The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden on each of the 192 HWCs covered by 

this ICR is estimated to average 742 hours. The annual average capital and O&M cost on each unit is 

estimated to be $21,169. 

The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is 

estimated to average 42 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; train personnel to be able to 
56

respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of 

information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. 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. 

To comment on EPA 's need for this information, the accuracy of the provided burden estimates, 

and any suggested methods for minimizing respondent burden, including the use of automated collection 

techniques, EPA has established a public docket for this ICR under Docket ID Number EPA-HQ-RCRA–

2015–0219, which is available for online viewing at www.regulations.gov, or in person viewing at the 

RCRA Docket in the EPA Docket Center (EPA/DC), WJC West Building, Room 3334, 1301 Constitution 

Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C. The EPA Docket Center Public Reading Room is open from 8:30 a.m. 

to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays. The telephone number for the RCRA 

Docket is (202) 566-0270, and the fax number is (202) 566-9744. An electronic version of the public 

docket is available at www.regulations.gov. This site can be used to submit or view public comments,
