Title: NESHAP for Municipal Solid 

Waste Landfills (Renewal). 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 

1938.05, OMB Control Number 2060– 

0505. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on August 31, 2012. Under OMB 

regulations, the Agency may continue to 

either conduct or sponsor the collection 

of information while this submission is 

pending at OMB. 

Abstract: The National Emission 

Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants 

(NESHAP) for Municipal Solid Waste 

(MSW) Landfills were proposed on 

November 7, 2000, and promulgated on 

January 16, 2003. The affected entities 

are subject to the General Provisions of 

the NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart 

A, and any changes, or additions to the 

Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, 

subpart AAAA. 

Owners or operators of the affected 

facilities must submit initial 

notification, 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 5 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 municipal solid 

waste (MSW) landfills. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

1,124. 

Frequency of Response: Occasionally, 

annually, and semiannually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

18,283. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$1,768,692, which includes $1,751,832 

in labor costs, no capital/startup costs, 

and $16,860 in operation and 

maintenance (O&M) costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

adjustment increase in the total 

estimated burden hours and costs for 

both the respondents and the Agency as 

currently identified in the OMB 

Inventory of Approved Burdens. This 

increase is not due to any program 

changes. The increase in burden hours 

and costs reflects both a growth in the 

respondent universe since the last ICR 

renewal, and an increase in labor rates. 

This ICR uses updated labor rates in 

estimating the costs for all labor 

categories.
