*Title:*                     NESHAP for Phosphoric Acid Manufacturing and Phosphate Fertilizers Production (40 CFR part 63, subparts AA & BB).                 

*ICR Numbers:*                     EPA ICR Number 1790.04, OMB Control Number 2060-0361.                 

*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:*                     Owners/operators of affected phosphoric acid manufacturing and phosphate fertilizer production must submit one-time only notifications (where applicable) and annual reports on performance test results. Semiannual reports are required. In addition, a quarterly report is required when excess emissions occur.                 

Subparts AA and BB require respondents to install monitoring devices to measure the pressure drop and liquid flow rate for wet scrubbers. These operating parameters are permitted to vary within ranges determined concurrently with performance tests. Exceedances of the operating ranges are considered violations of the site-specific operating limits. 

The standards require sources to determine and record the amount of phosphatic feedstock material processed or stored on a daily basis. Respondents also maintain records of specific information needed to determine that the standards are being achieved and maintained. 

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 Number 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 are estimated to average 18 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:*                     Phosphoric acid manufacturing and phosphate fertilizers production plants.                 

*Estimated Number of Respondents:*                     12.                 

*Frequency of Response:*                     Initially, quarterly, semiannually, and annually.                 

*Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:*                     1,542.                 

*Estimated Total Annual Costs:*                     $109,908, which includes no annualized capital/startup costs, $11,000 in annual O&M costs, and $98,908 in 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. Second, the growth rate for the industry is very low, negative or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden.
