    Title: NESHAP for Flexible Polyurethane Foam Product (Renewal).
    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1783.05, OMB Control Number 2060-0357.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2010. Under 
OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the 
collection of information while this submission is

[[Page 19967]]

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, and 
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 Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) 
standards for Flexible Polyurethane Foam Product (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart III) were proposed on December 27, 1996, and promulgated on 
October 7, 1998.
    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, at a minimum, are required semiannually.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 43 
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: Flexible polyurethane foam product 
facilities.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 132.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, semiannually, and 
annually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 9,047.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $850,851, which is comprised 
exclusively of labor costs. There are neither annualized capital/
startup costs nor operation and maintenance (O&M) costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the labor hours of 
the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved ICR Burdens. 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. Therefore, 
labor hours in the previous ICR reflect the current burden to the 
respondents and are reiterated in this ICR.
    The increases in labor costs to the respondents and the Agency are 
due to labor rate adjustments that reflect the rates for fiscal year 
2009. The increases are not due to any program changes. Labor rates in 
the previous ICR were based on fiscal year 2003.
