Title: NESHAP for Aluminum, Copper 

and Other Non-ferrous Metals Foundries 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 

2332.03, OMB Control Number 2060– 

0630 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on October 31, 2012. Under OMB 

regulations, the Agency may continue to 

either conduct or sponsor the collection 

of information while this submission is 

pending at OMB. 

Abstract: The affected entities are 

subject to the General Provisions of the 

NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A, 

and any changes, or additions to the 

Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, 

subpart ZZZZZZ. 

Owners or operators of the affected 

facilities must submit a one-time-only 

report of any physical or operational 

changes, initial performance tests, and 

periodic reports and results. 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. Reports are also required 

semiannually. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 164 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. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Aluminum, copper and other nonferrous metal foundries. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

318. 

Frequency of Response: Initially and 

occasionally. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

10,482. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$1,015,005, which includes $1,015,005 

in labor costs, and neither capital/ 

startup costs nor operating and 

maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

adjustment increase in the total 

estimated burden hours and cost for the 

respondents as currently identified in 

the OMB Inventory of Approved 

Burdens. This is not due to any program 

changes. The increase in burden hours 

and costs is due the fact that the rule is 

now fully implemented and all effected 

entities are required to comply with the 

rule on an annual basis. Furthermore, 

this ICR uses adjustment labor rates 

which also increase the burden costs for 

all labor categories. 

There is an adjustment decrease in the 

total burden hours and cost for the 

Agency as currently identified in the 

OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. 

The burden hours and costs have 

decreased since the last ICR because the 

Agency is no longer expected to conduct 

activities associated with initial 

compliance. This ICR uses updated 

labor rates in estimating the burden 

costs for all labor categories.

Title: NSPS for Metal Furniture 

Coating (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart EE) 

(Renewal) 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 

0649.11, OMB Control Number 2060– 

0106 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on November 30, 2012. Under 

OMB regulations, the Agency may 

continue to either conduct or sponsor 

the collection of information while this 

submission is pending at OMB. 

Abstract: The affected entities are 

subject to the General Provisions of the 

NSPS at 40 CFR part 60, subpart A and 

any changes, or additions to the 

Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 60, 

subpart EE. 

Owners or operators of the affected 

facilities must make an initial 

notification, performance tests, periodic 

reports, and 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. Reports are also 

required semiannually. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 58 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. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Owners or operators of metal furniture 

surface coating facilities. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

400. 

Frequency of Response: Initially, 

occasionally and semiannually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

56,074. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$6,269,572, which includes $5,429,572 

in labor costs, no capital/startup costs, 

and $840,000 in operation and 

maintenance (O&M) costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is no 

change in the burden hours in this ICR 

compared to the previous ICR. This is 

due to two considerations: (1) The 

regulations have not changed over the 

past three years and are not anticipated 

to change over the next three years; and 

(2) the growth rate for the industry is 

very low, negative or non-existent, so 

there is no significant change in the 

overall burden. 

There is an increase in costs for both 

the respondents and the Agency from 

the most recently approved ICR. The 

increase in burden cost is due to an 

increase in labor rates. This ICR uses 

updated labor rates from the Bureau of 

Labor Statistics to calculate burden 

costs.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION 

AGENCY 

Proposed Administrative Agreement 

for Collection of CERCLA Past Costs 

AGENCY: U.S Environmental Protection 

Agency (U.S. EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. Proposed CERCLA 122 

Administrative Agreement. 

SUMMARY: U.S. EPA is proposing to 

execute an Administrative Agreement 

(Agreement) under Section 122 of 

CERCLA for collection of a percentage 

of past response costs at the Ultimate 

Industries, Inc. Site. Respondent has 

agreed to pay $8,000 out of total past 

costs of approximately $83,776.10, in 

return for a covenant not to sue and 

contribution protection from U.S. EPA. 

U.S. EPA today is proposing to execute 

this Agreement because it achieves 

collection of a reasonable percentage of 

total Site costs. 

DATES: Comments on this proposed 

settlement must be received by 

November 21, 2012. 

ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed 

settlement are available at the following 

address for review: Ms. Cheryl Allen, 

Coordinator, Office of Public Affairs, 

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 

Region V, 77 W. Jackson Boulevard (P– 

19J), Chicago, Illinois 60604, (312) 353– 

6196. 

It is recommended that you contact 

Ms. Allen at (312) 353–6196 before 

visiting the Region 5 Office. 

Comments on this proposed 

settlement should be addressed to: Ms. 

Cheryl Allen, Coordinator, Office of 

Public Affairs, U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency, Region V, 77 W. 

Jackson Boulevard (P–19J), Chicago, 

Illinois 60604, (312) 353–6196. 

Please submit an original and three 

copies, if possible. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms 

Cheryl Allen, Office of Public Affairs, at 

312 353–6196. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Site is 

a closed decorative landscaping rocks 

and waterfalls manufacturing facility 

and brick warehouse in a residential 

neighborhood, located in Sandusky, Erie 

County, Ohio. The site was discovered 

by Ohio EPA (OEPA) between 2005 and 

2007. During that time OEPA took legal 

action against Ultimate Industries, Inc. 

(Ultimate), the owner-operator 

potentially responsible party. 

Subsequently, Ultimate discontinued 

business in June 2004 and the owners, 

Mr. James Roberts and Mr. Thomas 

Roberts, filed for personal bankruptcy. 

Under the proposed Agreement, 

Citizens Banks, current Settling Party, 

held a mortgage interest on the business 

and property. Citizens Bank foreclosed 

on the mortgage in May 2005 and 

purchased the Site property in May 

2006. In September 2006, Citizens Bank 

sought a court order to have the Site 

property sale set aside. A state of Ohio 

court granted this motion in January 

2007. 

A 30-day period, beginning on the 

date of publication, is open pursuant to 

section 122(i) of CERCLA for comments 

on the proposed Administrative 

Agreement. Comments should be sent to 

Ms. Cheryl Allen of the Office of Public 

Affairs (P–19J), U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency, Region V, 77W.
