Abstract: Respondents are owners or 

operators of friction materials 

manufacturing facilities. The NESHAP 

contains an emission limitation for 

solvent mixers at friction materials 

manufacturing facilities. Solvent mixers 

are the affected source. Friction 

materials manufacturing facilities 

manufacture friction material using a 

solvent-based process. Friction material 

is subsequently used to manufacture 

friction products that include, but are 

not limited to, disc brake pucks, disc 

brake pads, brake linings, brake shoes, 

brake segments, brake blocks, brake 

discs, clutch facings, and clutches. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Owners or operators of friction materials 

manufacturing facilities. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart 

QQQQQ). 

Estimated number of respondents: 4 

(total). 

Frequency of response: Initially, 

occasionally, semiannually, and 

annually. 

Total estimated burden: 1,291 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.3(b). 

Total estimated cost: $127,502 (per 

year), includes $1,088 in annualized 

capital and/or operation & maintenance 

costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease of five hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by the 

OMB. This decrease is due to a 

discrepancy identified in the previous 

ICR. The previous ICR assumed all 

existing plants transmit one-time 

notifications, a burden item that only 

applies to new sources. Since no new 

sources are expected over the next 

three-year period of the ICR, the ICR 

was revised to remove this burden, 

which resulted in a decrease in burden 

hours. 

There is also an increase in the 

estimated burden cost due to the use of 

updated labor rates. This ICR references 

the most recent labor rates available 

from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and 

the OPM to calculate burden costs.
