    Title: NESHAP for the Manufacture of Amino/Phenolic Resins 
(Renewal).
    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1869.05; OMB Control Number 2060-0434.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on May 31, 2007. 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 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 National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) for the Manufacture of Amino/Phenolic Resins (40 
CFR part 63, subpart OOO) were proposed on December 14, 1998, and 
promulgated on January 20, 2000.
    The NESHAP standard required initial notification, performance 
tests, and periodic reports. 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. These 
notifications, reports and records are essential in determining 
compliance and are required, in general, of all sources subject to 
NESHAP.
    Any owner or 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, maintain reports, 
and records. All reports are sent to the delegated state or local 
authority. In the event that there is no such delegated authority, the 
reports are sent directly to the EPA regional office. This information 
is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart 
OOO as authorized in Section 112 and 114(a) of the Clean Air Act. The 
required information consists of emissions data and other information 
that have been determined not to be private.
    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 are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15, and are 
identified on the form and/or instrument, if applicable.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 
approximately 293 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; 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: Manufacturers of amino/phenolic 
resins.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 40.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion, initially, and semiannually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 24,044.
    Estimated Total Costs: $1,537,017, which includes $0 annualized 
Capital Startup costs, $16,000 annualized Operating and Maintenance 
Costs (O&M), and $1,521,017, annual Labor Costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the labor hours or 
cost in this ICR compared to the previous ICR. This is due to two 
considerations. First, the regulations have not changed over the past 
three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three 
years. Secondly, the growth rate for the industry is very low, negative 
or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall 
burden.

Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division.
