**) (Renewal)**  **1. Identification of the Information Collection 1(a) Title of the**  **Information Collection** NESHAP for Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Facilities

- Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart II) (Renewal), EPA I CR Number 1712. 09 , OMB Control Number 2060

- 0330. **1(b) Short Characterization/Abstract** The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Facilities

- Surface Coating were proposed on December 6, 1994 and promulgated on December 15, 1995 . This standard was most recentl y amended on November 21, 2011; this amendment finalized the residual risk and technology review b y re adopting existing MACT standards, eliminated the startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM) exemption, removed SSM plan requirement, and revised SSM

- associated recordkeeping and reporting requirements for periods of malfunctions. The shipbuilding and ship repair industry consists of establishments that build, repair, repaint, convert and alter ships which are marine or fresh

- water vessels used for military or commercial operations. These regulations apply to only the shipbuilding and repair surface coating operations that occur at facilities that are major sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAP s ) . New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart II

. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial 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 affected facility , or any period during which the monitoring sy stem is inoperative. These notifications, report s, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NESHAP

. Any owner/operator subject to the provisions of this part shall 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 deleg ated state or local authority . In the event that there is no such delegated authority, the reports are sent directly to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regional office. Over the next three ye ars, an average of 56 respondents per ye ar will be subject to the standard , and no additional respondents per year will become subject to the standard. The previous ICR had the following Terms of Clearance (TOC):2 In accordance with 5 CFR 1320, the information collection is approved for 3 ye ars. Upon resubmission, the agency should continue to assess the actual burden imposed by the collection relative to the agency's estimated burden. Also, the agency should briefly summarize in the supporting statement public comments received and respo nses to the information collection in addition to providing a link to the rulemaking docket. Finally , the agency

shall update labor cost estimates with the most recent available labor cost reference (it is noted that though submitted in late 2011, this co llection utilized 2002 data). The EPA has addressed each item of concern in the TOC by consulting with industry , indentifying and addressing any comments received, and updating labor rates used in the burden calculations. EPA did not receive any public comments associated with this I CR renewal. The burden to the “Affected Public” may be found in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost

– NESHAP for Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Facilities

- Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart II) (Renewal)

. The “Federal Government” burden is attributed entirel y to work performed b y federal employees or government contractors and may be found in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost

– NESHAP for Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Facilities

- Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart II) (Renewal)

. **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. These standards are applicable to new or existing sources of hazardous air pollutants and shall require the maximum degree of emission reduction. 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, durin g 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.3

In the Administrator's judgment , HAP emissions from surface coating operations at shipbuilding and repair facilities cause or contribute to air pollution that may reasonabl y be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare. Therefore, t he NESHAP were promulgated for this source category

at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart II

. **2(b) Practical Utility/Users of the Data** The recordkeeping and reporting requirements in the standard ensure compliance with the applicable regulations which w ere 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 standard. Continuous emission monitors are used to ensure compliance with the standard 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 standard 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. Nonduplication, Consultations, and Other Collection Criteria**
**3(a) Nonduplication** 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, no duplication exists. **3(b) Public No tice 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 ( 79 FR 30117 ) on May 27, 2014

. No comments were received on the burden published in the Federal Regi ster

.4

**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 b y indu stry , in compliance with the recordkeeping and reporting provisions in the standard, is the Online Tracking Information System (OTI S) which is operated and maintained by the EPA Office of Compliance. OTIS is the EPA database for the collection, maintenanc e, and retrieval of all compliance data. The growth rate for the industry is based on our consultations with the Agency ’s internal industry experts. Industry trade associations and other interested parties were provided an opportunity to comment on the burden associated with the standard as it was being developed. In developing this I CR, we contacted both BAE Systems Ship Repair at (757) 419

- 9615 and Northrop Grumman Corporation at (703) 280

- 2900. 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 Coll ection**  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 detecting violations would be le ss 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. These standards require the respondents to maintain all records, including reports and notifications for at least five years. This is consistent with the General Provisions as applied to the standards. EPA believes that the five ye ar records retention requirement is consistent with the Part 70 permit program and the five ye ar s tatute of limitations on which the permit program is based. The retention of records for five years allows EPA to establish the compliance history of a source, any pattern of non

- compliance and to determine the appropriate level of enforcement action. EP A has found that the most flagrant violators have violations extending beyond five ye ars. In addition, EPA would be prevented from pursuing the violators due to the destruction or nonexistence of essential records. **3(f) Confidentiality**5

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 (see 40 CFR 2; 41 FR 36902, September 1, 1976; amended b y 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** The respondents to the recordkeeping and reporting requirements are shipbuilding and repair facilities . The United States Standard Industrial Classification ( SI C ) code for the respondents affected by

the standards is SI C 3731 , which corresponds to the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS ) code 336611 for S hip B uilding and Repairing. **4(b) Information Requested (i) Data Items** 
In this ICR , all the data that is recorded or reported is required b y the NESHAP for Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Facilities

- Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart II). A source must make the following reports:

**Notification s**  Construction/reconstruction 63.5 Initial notifications 63.9(b), 63.787(a) Report of performance test results 63.10(d)(2), 63.788(a) Initial performance test 63.7(b), 63.9(e) Rescheduled initial performance test 63.7(b)(2) Continuous monitoring system notifications 63.9(g) Request for extension of compliance, adjustments in time periods, and changes in information 63.9(c), (i), and (j), 63.787(a) Special compliance requirements 63.9(d), 63.787(a)6

The first 2 years of records must be retained at the facility. 63.788(b)
Electronic Reporting This collection does not make use of automated, mechanical, or other technical collection techniques. Respondents will most likely submit hard cop y reports, although some may submit electronic versions. The rule allows records to be maintained in hard cop y or electronic format to allow flexibility

and minimize burden.7
**(ii) Respondent Activities**

**Respondent Activities** Read instructions. Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate CMS for opacity , or for pressure drop and liquid supply pressure for control device, if approved and used. 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. Submit 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.8 **Agency Activities** Input, anal yz e, and maintain data in the Online Tracking Information Sy stem (OTI S). **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 compl y with the emission standard, and to note the operating conditions under which compliance was achieved. 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 identifi cation, as a check on source operation and maintenance, and for compliance determinations.
In formation contained in the reports is entered into OTI S which is operated and maintained by

EPA's Office of Compliance. OT IS is EPA ’ s database for the collection , maintenance, and retrieval of compliance data for approximately 125,000 industrial and government

- owned facilities. EPA uses the OTI S 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 b y this regulation must be retained by the owner/operator for five ye ars. **5(c) Small Entity Flexibility** The recordkeeping and rep orting requirements were selected within the context of this specific subpart and the specific process equipment and pollutants. The requirements reflect the burden on small businesses. To the extent that larger businesses can use economies of scale to reduce their burden, the overall burden will be reduced. Although the recordkeeping and reporting requirements are the same for small and larger businesses, the Agency considers these requirements the minimum needed to ensure compliance and, therefore, cannot reduce them further for small businesses. However, there is a “low usage” exemption, which may reduce the recordkeeping and reporting burden for some small businesses. This “low usage” exemption stipulates that the provisions of the regulation do not apply to coatings used in volumes of less than 200 liters per ye ar. **5(d) Collection Schedule** The specific frequency

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

– NESHAP for Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Facilities

- Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart II) (Renewal)

**6. Estimating the Burden and Cost of the Collection** Table 1 documents the computation of individual burdens for the recordkeeping and reporting requirement s applicable to the industry for the subpart included in this I CR. 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

. **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 28,594 ( 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 experience with the NESHAP 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 8

. 0 2 ($ 60.98 + 110%) Technical $ 10 1

. 05 ($4 8

. 12 + 110%) Clerical $ 5 1

. 37 ($2 4

. 46 + 110%) These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, March 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 p ercent to account for the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry

. **(ii) Estimating Capital/Startup and Operation and Maintenance Costs** The only costs to the regulated industry resulting from information collection activities required b y the subject standard are labor costs. There are no capital/startup or operation and maintenance costs.

**(iii) Capital/Startup vs. Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Costs** The only type of industry costs associated with the information collection activity in the regulations is labor costs. There are no capital/startup or operation and maintenance costs. **6(c) Estimating Agency Burden and Cost** The only costs to the Agency

are those costs associated with anal ys is of the reported10

information. EP A'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 average annual Agency cost during the three years of the ICR is estimated to be $ 11,724

. 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

- 12, Step 1, $ 2 9

. 17 + 60% ) Clerical $2 5. 25 (GS

- 6, Step 3, $ 15. 78 + 60% ) These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) , 20 1 4 General Schedule , which excludes locality

rates of pay

. 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

– NESHAP for Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Facilities

- Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart II) (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, approximately 56 existing respondents will be subject to the standard. 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 56 per year. The number of respondents is calculated using the following table that addresses the three ye ars covered b y this ICR.11 **Number of Respondents** Respondents That Submit Reports Respondents That Do Not Submit Any Reports

Semiannual Report/Notification 56 2 0 112 The number of Total Annual Responses is 112

. The total annual labor costs are $2,799,388

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

– NESHAP for Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Facilities

- Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart II) (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, respectivel y, and summarized below. **(i) Respondent Tally**12

The total annual labor hours are 28,594

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

– NESHAP for Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Facilities

- Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart II) (Renewal)

. Furthermore, the annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 255 hours per response

. The total annual capital/startup and O&M costs to the regulated entity are $0

. 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 258 labor hours at a cost of $11,724 . See Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost

– NESHAP for Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Facilities

- Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart II) (Renewal)

. **6(f) Reasons for Change in Burden** There is an increase of $1,059,007.46 in respondent burden costs from the most recentl y approved ICR . This is due to an adjustment in the labor rates and an adjustment in the burden calculation method. The previous I CR did not estimate management and clerical burden hours , which were added to this I CR to maintain consistency in burden calculation methodology

. **6(g) Burden Statement**  The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 255 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; develop, 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. To comment on the Agency'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 I CR under13
