ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: In compliance with the

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.

3501 et seq.), this document announces

that the following Information

Collection Request (ICR) has been

forwarded to the Office of Management

and Budget (OMB) for review and

the information collection and its

expected burden and cost; where

appropriate, it includes the actual data

collection instrument.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on

or before December 4, 1997.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For

information or a copy of the ICR, call

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Title: NSPS Petroleum Refinery

Wastewater Systems (OMB Number

2060–0172; EPA ICR Number

1136.05,expiring 12/31/97). This is a

request for extension of a currently

approved collection.

Abstract: The promulgated standards

require record keeping to document

information relating to equipment

specifications, work practices, and

design criteria. Information must be

recorded in sufficient detail to enable

owners or operators to demonstrate

compliance with the standards. Owners

or operators are required to keep records

of design and operating specifications of

all equipment installed to comply with

the promulgated standards, such as

traps, covers, roof seals, control devices,

and other equipment. This information

is used to ensure that equipment design

and operating specifications are

attained. Generally, this information

will be readily available because it is

needed for construction purposes. As a

result, there should be no specific

burden from this requirement.

The standards also require the owner

or operator to design and operate the

closed vent and control device systems

in a manner which will ensure at least

an overall 95 percent control efficiency.

Owners or operators will ensure

compliance by monitoring operational

or process parameters associated with

the control devices. A semiannual

report must be submitted to document

compliance with the standards. This

requirement results in a small burden to

the plant, but this requirement is the

minimum needed to ensure compliance

with the standards. For refineries using

a flare as a control device, an initial

performance test is required, which

includes notification of the test date and

reporting of test results to EPA. Apart

from flares, no performance tests are

required under these standards.

The standards do not include control

requirements for air flotation systems.

As a result, no inspections or associated

record keeping must be performed for

these facilities. The standards do require

semiannual visual inspections of the

roofs and access doors for oil-water

separators. Semiannual visual

inspection of junction box covers must

also be conducted. A portable

hydrocarbon analyzer is required to

detect VOC emission where an oil-water

separator or closed drain system is

vented to a control device. The

standards require records of these

inspections. In addition, process drains

must be periodically inspected for the

presence of water in p-leg traps and seal

pots. The standards require monthly

inspections of drains in active service,

and weekly inspections of inactive

drains, or alternatively, semiannual

inspections of inactive drains that are

tightly capped or plugged. Records of

these inspections are required where a

water seal is dry or otherwise breached

or a problem is identified. These records

are needed to ensure continuing proper

use of the required equipment (Clean

Air Act section 111(h)(1)).

Additional reports are required by the

General Provisions of 40 CFR 60.7.

These initial reports include notification

of construction or modification,

reconstruction, and start-up, shutdown,

or malfunction.

The standards also require a

semiannual certification that all of the

required inspections are being carried

out in accordance with the installation

of the equipment required by the

standards. Semiannual reports include a

summary of the information required by

the record keeping requirements, such

as inspection dates, inspection results,

and remedial action taken.

Under the rule, the data collected by

the affected industry is retained at the

facility for a minimum of 2 years and

made available for inspection as

requested by the Administrator. Owners
