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 respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise
disclose the information.

The ICR provides a detailed explanation of the Agency’s estimate, which is only briefly summarized here:

Estimated total number of potential respondents: 663,669.

Frequency of response: Reporting requirements under this rulemaking are primarily required on an annual basis, with the exception of technician testing organizations that are required to rep ort biannually. The frequency of recordkeeping requirements under this rulemaking vary depending upon the actions of the respondent but are generally required on a transactional
basis.

Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent: 1.

Estimated total annual burden hours: 2,404,913 hours.

Estimated total annual costs: $96,364,851. This includes an estimated burden cost of $96,364,851 and an estimated cost of $0 for capital

investment costs.

Are there changes in the estimates from the last approval?

There is no increase of hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with that identified in the ICR currently approved by OMB. This is due
to the fact that there have been no changes in any program requirement, no changes in EPA’s estimates of the time required to submit reports and maintain records, and no changes in EPA’s
estimates of the overall number of respondents. However, due to a
correction of miscalculated estimates in the ICR currently approved by OMB, there is a change in the estimated total number of potential respondents from that identified in the ICR currently approved by OMB. There is also an increase of $8,345,044 in the estimated total annual cost as a result of changes
in EPA’s estimates of labor rates.

What is the next step in the process for
this ICR?

EPA will consider the comments
received and amend the ICR as appropriate. The final ICR package will
then be submitted to OMB for review and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.12. At that time, EPA will issue
another Federal Register notice pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to
announce the submission of the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to submit additional comments to OMB. If you have any questions about this ICR or the approval process, please contact the technical person listed under **FOR**

Title: NSPS for Electric Utility Steam Generating Units (Renewal).

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1053.10, OMB Control Number 2060–

0023.

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on January 31, 2011. 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 the EPA regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the Federal Register when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, and displayed either by publication in
the Federal Register or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.

Abstract: The affected entities are subject to the General Provisions of the NESHAP at 40 CFR part 60, subpart A, and any changes, or additions to the Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 60, subpart Da. Owners or operators of the
affected facilities must submit a onetime-only report of any physical or operational changes, initial performance tests, and periodic reports and results. Owners or operators are also required to
maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. Reports, at a minimum, are required semiannually.

Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is estimated to average 96 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: Owners or operators of electric utility steam generating units.

Estimated Number of Respondents:

677.

Frequency of Response: Initially, quarterly and semiannually.

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:

160,839.

Estimated Total Annual Cost: $27,445,813, which includes $15,090,813 in labor costs, $2,200,000 in capital/startup costs, and $10,155,000 in operation and maintenance (O&M)

costs.

Changes in the Estimates: There are no changes in either the labor hours or in the capital/startup and operation and
maintenance costs in this ICR. This is due to two considerations: (1) The regulations have not changed over the past three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three years; and (2) the growth rate for the industry is very low, negative, or non-existent.

The increase in labor cost to both Respondents and the Agency is due to labor rate adjustments that reflect the
most recent available estimates.
