**SUPPORTING STATEMENT ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY**  **NSPS for**  **Surface Coating of Large Appliances (40 CFR Part 6**  **0 , Subpart**  **SS (Renewal)**  **1. Identification of the Information Collection 1(a) Title of the Information Collection**  NSPS for Surface Coating of Large Appliances (40 CFR Part 6 0 , Subpart S S ) (Renewal), EPA I CR Number 0659.13 , OMB Control Number 2060

- 0108

. **1(b) Short Characterization/Abstract** The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Surface Coating of Large Applian ces were proposed on December 24, 2980 , promulgated on October 27, 1982 , and most
- recentl y revised on October 17, 2000 . These regulations appl y to existing and new large appliance coating facilities . New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart SS

. In general, all NSPS standards require initi al notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by

the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affecte d facility , or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NSPS. Any owner/operator subject to the provisions of this part shall maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at least two 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 directl y to the U

. S

. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regional office. The “burden ” to the Affected Public may be found below in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Surface Coating of Large Appliances (40 CFR Part 60 , Subpart SS ) (Renewal). The “burden ” to the “Federal Government” is attributed entirely to work performed by either F ederal emplo yees or government contractors and can be found below in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Surface Coating of Large Appliances (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart SS) (Renewal)

. Over the next three ye ars, approximately 72 respondents per ye ar will be subject to the standard , and no additional respondents per year will become subject to the standard. The Office of Management and Budget ( OMB ) approved the currentl y active ICR without any “ Terms of Clearance ”

.2

**2. Need for and Use of the Collection 2(a) Need/Authority for the Collection**  The EPA is charged under Section 111 of the Clean Air Act (CAA), as amended, to establish standards of performance for new stationary sources that reflect:

**. . .** application of the best technological system of continuous emissions reduction which (taking into consideration the cost of achieving such emissions reduction, or any non - air quality health and environmental impact and energy requirements) the Administrator determines has been adequatel y demonstrated. Section 111(a)(l). The Agency

refers to this charge as selecting the best demonstrated technology (BDT). Section 111 also requires that the Administrator review and, if appropriate, revise such standards every four years. In addition, section 114(a) states that the Administrator may require any

owner/operator subject to any

requirement of this Act to: (A) Establish and maintain such records; (B) make such reports; (C) install, use, and maintain such monitoring equipment, and use such audit procedures, or methods; (D) 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); (E) keep records on control equipment parameters, production variables or other indirect data when direct monitoring of emissions is impractical; (F) submit compliance certifications in accordance with Section 114(a)(3); and (G) provide such other information as the Administrator may reasonabl y require. In the Administrator's judgment, volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from surface coating operations cause or contribute to air pollution that may reasonably

be anticipated to endanger public health or we lfare. Therefore, the NSPS were promulgated for this source category at 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart SS

. **2(b) Practical Utility/Users of the Data** The recordkeeping and reporting requirements in the standard ensure compliance with the applicable regulations which 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 initial3

capabil ity to comply

with the emission standard s . Continuous emission monitors are used to ensure compliance with the se standard s at all times. During the performance test a record of the operating parameters under which compliance was achieved may be recorded an d used to determine compliance in place of a continuous emission monitor. The notifications required in the se standard s 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 properl y installed and operated , leaks are being detected and repaired , and the standard is being met. The performance test may also be observed. The required semiannual reports are used to determine periods of excess emissions, identify problems at the facility , verify operation/maintenance procedures and for compliance determinations. **3. Non**
**- duplication, Consultations, and Other Collection Criteria**  The requested recordkeeping and reporting are required under 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart SS

. **3(a) Non**
**- duplication**  If the subject standards have not been delegated, the information is sent directl y to the appropriate EPA regional office. Otherwise, the information is sent directl y to the delegated state or local agency . If a state or local agency has adopted its own similar standards to implement the Federal standards, a cop y of the report submitted to the state or local agency can be sent to the Administrator in lieu of the report required by the Federal standards. Therefore, duplication does not exist. **3(b) Publ ic Notice Required Prior to ICR Submission to OMB**  An announcement of a public comment period for the renewal of this I CR was published in the Federal Register ( 80 FR 32116 ) on June 5, 2015 . No comments were received on the burden published in the Federal Register

. **3(c) Consultations** The Agency ’s industry

experts have been consulted, and the Agency ’s internal data sources and projections of industry growth over the next three years have been considered. The primary

source of information as reported by industry , in compliance with the recordkeeping and reporting provisions in the standard, is the Integrated Compliance Information System (I CI S). IC IS is EPA’s database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance data for industrial and government

- owned facilities. The growth rate for the industry is based on our consultations with the Agency ’s internal industry experts.4

Industry trade associations and other interested parties were provi ded an opportunity to comment on the burden associated with the standard as it was being developed. In developing this I CR, we contacted: 1) the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers, at info@aham.org; and 2) the Sherwin

- Williams Company , via its website

-based contact form 1

. It is our policy

to respond after a thorough review of comments received since the last ICR renewal as well as those submitted in response to the first Federal Register notice. In this case, no comments were received. **3(d) Effects of Less Frequent Collection**  Less frequent information collection would decrease the margin of assurance that facilities are continuing to meet the standards. Requirements for information gathering and recordkeeping are useful techniques to ensure that good operation and maintenance practices are applied and emission limitations are met. If the information required by these standards was collected less frequentl y, the proper operation and maintenance of control equipment and the possibility

of det ecting violations would be less likely

. **3(e) General Guidelines** These reporting or recordkeeping requirements do not violate any of the regulations promulgated b y OMB under 5 CFR Part 1320, Section 1320.5. **3(f) Confidentiality** Any information submitted to the Agency for which a claim of confidentiality is made will be safeguarded according to the Agency policies set forth in Title 40, chapter 1, part 2, subpart B

- Confidentiality of Business Information (CBI) (see 40 CFR 2; 41 FR 36902, September 1, 1976; amended by 43 FR 40000, September 8, 1978; 43 FR 42251, September 20, 1978; 44 FR 17674, March 23, 1979). **3(g) Sensitive Questions** The reporting or recordkeeping requirements in the standard do not include sensitive questions.

**4. The Respondents and the Information Requested**  **4(a) Respondents/SIC Codes**

1 http://www.sherwin

- williams.com/5

The respondents to the recordkeeping and reporting requirements are facilities that conduct surface coating of large appliances . The United States Standard Industrial Classification ( SI C ) code for the respondents affected b y the standards and the corresponding North American Industry Classification System (NAICS ) codes are presented in the following table:
**Standard (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart SS)**  **SIC Codes NAICS Codes**  Household Cooking Equipment 3631 335221 Household Refrigerators and Home and Farm Freezers 3632 335222

- c), A source must keep the following records:6
**Recordkeeping** Startups, shutdowns, malfunction, periods where the continuous monitoring system is inoperative. 60.7(b) Records are required to be retained for two ye ars at the facility

. 60.455(d) Maintain a file of all measurements including the monitoring device, performance testing measurements, and monitoring device calibrations, checks, adjustments and maintenance performed on these devices . Monthly

performance test. 60.7(e), 60.453(a), 60.7(d)
Maintain daily

records of incinerator combustion temperature, or amounts of solvent recovered. 60.454(a)(3), 60.455(d) Where compliance is achieved through use of thermal incineration, each 3

- hour period of coating operation during which the average temperature of the device was more than 28 °C (50 °F) below the average temperature of the device during the most recent performance test at which destruction efficiency was determined. 60.455(c)(1)

Where compliance is achieved through cataly tic incineration, each 3

- hour period of coating operation during which the (1) avg. temp. recorded immediatel y before the catal ys t bed is more than 28 °C (50 °F) below the avg. temp. and (2) the avg. temp. difference across the catal ys t bed is less than 80 percent of the avg. temp. difference across the catal ys t bed during the most recent performance test at which destruction efficiency

was determined. 60.455(c)(2)

Electronic Reporting Some of the respondents are using monitoring equipment that automatically records parameter data. Although personnel at the affected facility must still evaluate the data, internal automation has significantly reduced the burden asso ciated with monitoring and recordkeeping at a plant site.

**(ii) Respondent Activities**7 **Respondent Activities** Familiarization with the regulatory requirements. Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate CMS for opacity , or for pressure drop and liquid supply pressure for control device. Perform initial performance test, Reference Method 24 test, and repeat performance tests if necessary . Write the notifications and reports listed above. Enter information required to be recorded above. Sub mit the required reports developing, acquiring, installing, and utilizing technology and systems for the purpose of collecting, validating, and verifying information. Develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of processing and maintaining information. Develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of disclosing and providing information. Train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information. Transmit, or otherwise disclose the information.
**5. The Information Collected: Agency Activities, Collection Methodology, and Information Management**  **5(a) Agency Activities** EPA conducts the following activities in connection with the acquisition, analysis, storage, and distribution of the required information. **Agency Activities** Review notifications and reports, including performance test reports, and excess emissions reports, required to be submitted by industry

. Audit facility

records. Input, anal yz e, and maintain data in the Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO) and I CI S.8

**5(b) Collection Methodology and Management** Following notification of startup, the reviewing authority could inspect the source to determine whether the pollution control devices are properl y installed and operated. Performance test reports are used b y the Agency to discern a source ’ s initial capability to comply

with the emission standard. Data and records maintained by the respondents are tabulated and published for use in compliance and enforcement programs. The semiannual reports are used for problem identification, as a check on source operation and maintenance, and for compliance determinations. In formation contained in the reports is reported b y st ate and local governments in the IC IS Air database, which is operated and maintained by EPA's Office of Compliance. IC IS is EPA ’ s database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance data for industrial and government

- owned facilities. E PA uses IC IS for tracking air pollution compliance and enforcement b y local and state regulatory agencies, EPA regional offices and EPA headquarters. EPA and its delegated Authorities can edit, store, retrieve and analyze the data. The records required by

this regulation must be retained by the owner/operator for two ye ars. **5(c) Small Entity Flexibility** A majority

of the respondents are large entities (i.e., large businesses). However, the impact on small entities (i.e., small businesses) was taken into consideration during the development of the regulation. According to the promulgated rule notice in the Federal Register (47 FR 47779) on October 27, 1982, industry growth is expected to be confined to major manufacturers; the acquisition trend is also expected to continue as small manufacturers, unable to compete with mass producers, become prime candidates for acquisition. Based on this predicted trend, EPA assumes there is not likely that a significant number of small businesses who are currently

subject to this regulation. Due to technical considerations involving the process operations and the types of control equipment employed, the recordkeeping and reporting requirements are the same for both small and large entities. The Agency considers these to be the minimum requirements needed to ensure compliance and, therefore, cannot reduce them f urther for small entities. To the extent that larger businesses can use economies of scale to reduce their burden, the overall burden will be reduced. **5(d) Collection Schedule** The specific frequency

for each information collection activity within this request is shown b elow in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Surface Coating of Large Appliances (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart SS) (Renewal)

. **6. Estimating the Burden and Cost of the Collection** 9

Table 1 (below) documents the computation of individual burdens for the recordkeeping and reporting requirements applicable to the industry for the subpart included in this ICR. The individual burdens are expressed under standardized headings believed to be consistent with the concept of burden under the Paperwork Reduction Act. Where appropriate, specific tasks and major assumptions have been identified. Responses to this information collection are mandatory

. The Agen cy

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. **6(a) Estimating Respondent Burden** The average annual burden to industry over the next three years from these recordkeeping and reporting requirement s is estimated to be 7,740 hours ( Total Labor Hours from Table 1). These hours are based on Agency studies and background documents from the development of the regulation, Agency

knowledge and experi ence with the NSPS program, the previously approved ICR, and any comments received. **6(b) Estimating Respondent Costs (i) Estimating Labor Costs**  This I CR uses the following labor rates: Managerial $1 2 9

. 93 ($ 61.87 + 110%) Technical $ 10 3

. 97 ($4 9

. 51 + 110%) Clerical $ 5 1

. 79 ($2 4

. 66 + 110%) These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2014 , “ Table 2. Civilian Workers, by occupational and industry group. ” The rates are from column 1, “ Total compensation. ” The rates have been increased b y 110 percent to account for the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry

. **(ii) Estimating Capital/Startup and Operation and Maintenance Costs** The ty pe of industry

costs associated with the information collection activities in the subject standard are both labor costs which are addressed elsewhere in this ICR and the costs associated with continuous monitoring. The capital/startup costs are one

- time costs when a facility becomes subject to the re gulation. The annual operation and maintenance costs are the ongoing costs to maintain the monitors and other costs such as photocopying and postage.

. This is the total of column G. The average annual cost for capital/startup and operation and maintenance costs to industry over the next three years of the IC R is estimated to be $ 8,400

. These are the record

keeping costs

. **6(c) Estimating Agency Burden and Cost** The only costs to the Agency

are those costs associated with anal ys is of the reported informatio n. EPA's overall compliance and enforcement program includes activities such as the examination of records maint ained by the respondents, periodic inspection of sources of emissions, and the publication and distribution of collected information. The ave rage annual Agency cost during the three years of the ICR is estimated to be $ 30,100

. This cost is based on the average hourl y labor rate as follows: Managerial $ 6 2. 90 (GS

- 13, Step 5, $ 3 9

. 31 + 60% ) Technical $ 4 6

. 67 (GS

. The rates have been increased by 60 percent to account for the benefit packages available to government employees. Details upon which this estimate is based appear below in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Surface Coating of Large Appliances (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart SS) (Renewal). **6(d) Estimating the Respondent Universe and Total Burden and Costs** Based on our research for this I CR, on average over the next three ye ars, approximately11

72 existing respondents will be subject to the se standard s . It is estimated that no additional respondents per ye ar will become subject. The overall average number of respondents, as shown in the table below, is 72 per year. The number of respondents is calculated using the following table that addresses the three ye ars covered b y this IC R : **Number of Respondents**

The total annual labor costs are $ 779 ,000

. Details regarding these estimates may be found below in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Surface Coating of Large Appliances (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart SS) (Renewal)

. **6(e) Bottom Line Burden Hours and Cost Tables** The detailed bottom line burden hours and cost calculations for the respondents and the Agency are shown in Tables 1 and 2 below , respectively , and summarized below. **(i) Respondent Tally** The total annual labor hours are 7, 740 hours

. Details regarding these estimates may be found below in Table 1. Annual Respondent Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Surface Coating of Large Appliances (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart SS) (Renewal)

. We assume that burdens for managerial tasks take 5% of the time required for technical tasks because the ty

pical tasks for managers are to review and approve reports. Clerical burdens are assumed to take 10% of the time required for technical tasks because the ty pical duties of clerical staff are to proofread the reports, make copies and maintain records. Furthermore, the annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 27 hours per response

. The total annual capital/startup and O&M costs to the regulated entity are $8,400

. The cost calculations are detailed in Section 6(b)(iii), Capital/Startup vs. Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Costs.

**(ii) The Agency Tally** The average annual Agency burden and cost over next three years is estimated to be 662 labor hours at a cost of $30,100 . See below Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Surface Coating of Large Appliances (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart SS) (Renewal)

. We assume that burdens for managerial tasks take 5% of the time required for technical tasks because the ty

pical tasks for m anagers are to review and approve reports. Clerical burdens are assumed to take 10% of the time required for technical tasks because the ty pical duties of clerical staff are to proofread the reports, make copies and maintain records.13

**6(f) Reasons for Ch ange in Burden**  There is a small increase in the total estimated respondent burden and cost compared with the I CR currentl y approved by OMB. This increase is due to assuming that all existing respondents will need to spend some time reviewing the rule requirement each year to re
familiarize themselves with it. In previous ICRs, it was assumed that only new respondents would need to read and review the rule requirement. In addition, a portion of the increase in burden cost is due to using updated labor rates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics

. **6(g) Burden Statement** The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 27 hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended b y persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; devel op, acquire, install, and utilize technology and s ys tems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to compl y with any previously

applicable instructions and requirements; 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. An agency may

not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB Control Number. The OMB Control Numbers for EPA regulations are listed at 40 CFR Part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter 15.

a We have assumed that there are approximately 72 existing sources currently subject to this rule. There will be no additional new sources that will become subject to the rule over the three

- year period of this ICR. b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $129.93 per hour for Executive, Administrative, and Managerial labor; $103.97 per h our for Technical labor, and $51.79 per hour for Clerical labor. These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2014, Table 2. Civilian Workers, by occupational and industry group. The rates are from column 1, “Total compensation.” The rates have been increased by 110 percent to account for the benefit packages available to those em pl oyed by private industry.

c We have assumed that each respondent will take 5 hours twice per year to w rite the semiannual report. d We have assumed that each respondent will take 4 hours twice per year to w rite the temperature variance report.

**Assu mptions:**  a We have assumed that there are approximately 72 existing sources currently subject to this rule. There will be no additional new sources that will become subject to the rule over the three

- year period of this ICR. b This cost is based on the following labor rates: $62.90 for Managerial (GS

- 13, Step 5, $39.31 + 60%), $46.67 for Technical (GS

- 12, Step 1, $29.17 + 60%), and $25.25 Clerical (GS

- 6, Step 3, $15.78 + 60). These rates are from the Office of Personnel Manag ement (OPM) “2014 General Schedule” which excludes locality rates of pay. These rates have been increased by 60 percent to account for the benefit packages available to government emplo yees. c We have assumed that each respondent will take two hours twic e per year to review semiannual reports and temperature variance reports. d Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.
