Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

5,026. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$324,579, includes $571 annualized 

capital or O&M costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase of 609 hours in the total

the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR 

Burdens. This increase is an adjustment 

to the estimates to reflect the fact that 

new manufacturers will take more time

Title: Compliance Assurance 

Monitoring Program (Renewal). 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR No. 1663.05, 

OMB Control No. 2060–0376. 

ICR Status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on March 31, 2007. 

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 

EPA’s regulations in title 40 of the CFR, 

after appearing in the Federal Register 

when approved, are listed in 40 CFR 

part 9, are 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 Clean Air Act (Act) 

contains several provisions directing 

EPA to require source owners to 

conduct monitoring to support 

certification as to their status of 

compliance with applicable 

requirements. These provisions are set 

forth title V (operating permits 

provisions) and title VII (enforcement 

provisions) of the Act. Title V directs 

EPA to implement monitoring and 

certification requirements through the 

operating permits program. Section 

504(b) of the Act allows EPA to 

prescribe by rule, methods and 

procedures for determining compliance 

recognizing that continuous emissions 

monitoring systems need not be 

required if other procedures or methods 

provide sufficiently reliable and timely 

information for determining 

compliance. Under section 504(c), each 

operating permit must ‘‘set forth 

inspection, entry, monitoring, 

compliance, certification, and reporting 

requirements to assure compliance with 

the permit terms and conditions.’’

Section 114(a)(3) requires EPA to 

promulgate rules for enhanced 

monitoring and compliance 

certifications. Section 114(a)(1) of the 

Act provides additional authority 

concerning monitoring, reporting, and 

record keeping requirements. This 

section provides the Administrator with 

the authority to require any owner or 

operator of a source to install and 

operate monitoring systems and to 

record the resulting monitoring data. 

EPA promulgated the Compliance 

Assurance Monitoring (CAM) rule, 40 

CFR part 64, on October 22, 1997 (62 FR 

54900) to implement these authorities. 

In accordance with these provisions, 

the monitoring information that source 

owners must submit must also be 

available to the public, except as 


cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
14098 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 57 / Monday, March 26, 2007 / Notices 

entitled top protection from disclosure 

as allowed in section 114(c) of the Act. 

Burden Statement: We estimate the 

annual public reporting and 

recordkeeping burden for this collection 

of information to average about 445 

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. 

Based on the Agency’s knowledge of 

the number of title V permits issued 

since 1997 and the implementation of 

part 64 through permit renewals, the 

expected impact of the CAM program 

for the 3 years from October 1, 2006 

until September 30, 2009 is about 3.12 

million hours annually. The CAM rule 

will incur an average annual cost of 

about $114.5 million in 2005 dollars. 

There are no annualized capital and 

operation and maintenance costs. 

The CAM program potentially affects 

about 25,000 pollutant-specific 

emissions units nationwide. The annual 

burden for source owners or operators is 

about 3.1 million hours for pollutantspecific emissions units combined. The 

CAM rule will incur an average annual 

cost of about $112 million in 2005 

dollars. There are no annualized capital 

and operational and maintenance costs 

for monitoring programs in the cost 

burden. 

During the period, permitting 

authorities will review CAM rule 

submittals from source owners or 

operators whose permits have already 

been issued and are renewing those 

permits as the 5-year permit terms 

expire. Permitting authorities will also 

be interacting with the source owners or 

operators in addressing the CAM in 

semi-annual monitoring reports and 

reporting CAM data as necessary. We 

estimate the annual CAM burden to 

permitting authorities to be about 

37,000 hours and about $1.9 million. 

The ICR provides a detailed 

explanation of the Agency’s estimate, 

which is only briefly summarized here: 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Owners and operators of title V sources 

with controlled pollutant specific 

emissions units that have a pre-control 

potential to emit major amounts of 

regulated air pollutants and permitting 

authorities. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

418 (sources plus permitting authorities, 

annually) 

Frequency of Response: Incremental 

semi-annual and annual reports, plus 

every 5 years at permit renewal. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

3,121,743 hours. 

Estimated Total Annual Costs: $114.5 

million. This includes annual labor 

costs for sources and permitting 

authorities and no capital or O&M costs. 

Changes in the Estimate: There is an 

increase of 3,058,055 hours in the total 

estimated respondent annual burden 

currently identified in the OMB 

Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. 

This increase reflects the significant 

increase in number of respondents 

resulting from the implementation of 

the rule and an increased number of 

operating permit renewals, and EPA’s 

reassessment of the reporting and 

recordkeeping burdens associate with 

implementing this rule.
