**SUPPORTING STATEMENT ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY**  **NSPS for Beverage Can Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart WW) (Renewal)** 
**1. Identification of the Information Collection 1(a) Title of the Information Collection**  NSPS for Beverage Can Surface Coating (40 CFR P art 60, S ubpart WW) (Renewal) , EPA I CR Number 0663.1 1 , OMB Control Number 2060

- 0001

. **1(b) Short Characterization/Abstract** The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Beverage Can Surface Coating were proposed on November 26, 1980, and promulgated on August 25, 1983. These regulations apply to each operation of the following surface coating lines in the B everage C an S urface C oating industry : 1) exterior base ; 2) over - varnished ; and 3) inside spray . These regulations appl y to beverage can surface coating facilities commencing construction, modification or reconstruction after the date of proposal . This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 60, subpart WW. In general, all NSPS standards require initial notifications, 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 affe cted facility , or any period during which the monitoring sy stem is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NSPS. Any owner/ operator subject to the provisions of this part shall maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at least two years following the date of such measurements, maintenance 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 directl y to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regional office. Based on our consultations with industry representatives, there is an average of one affected facility

at each plant site and that each plant site has only one respondent (i.e., the owner/operator of the plant site). Over the next three ye ars, an average of 48 respondents per ye ar will be subject to the standard, and no additional respon dents per year will become subject to the standard. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approved the currentl y active I CR without any

“Terms of Clearance.” The “Affected Public” is private sector businesses that coat beverage cans . The burden to2

the “Affected Public” may be found below in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Beverage Can Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart WW) (Renewal)

. The “Federal Government” burden is attributed entirely to work performed by either F ederal employees or government contractors and is found below in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Beverage Can Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart WW) (Renewal)

. **2. Need for and Use of the Collection 2(a) Need/Authority for the**  **Collection** The EPA is charged under Section 111 of the Clean Air Act (CAA), as amended, to establish standards of performance for new stationary sources that reflect: . . . application of the best technological sy stem of continuous emissions reduction which (taking into consideration the cost of achieving such emissions reduction, or any non - air quality health and environmental impact and energy requirements) the Administrator determines has been adequatel y demonstrated. Section 111(a)(l). The Agency refers to this charge as selecting the best

- demonstrated technology (BDT). Section 111 also requires that the Administrator review and, if appropriate, revise such standards every four years. In addition, section 114(a) states that the Administrator may require any owner/operator subject to any

requirement of this Act to: (A) Establish and maintain such records; (B) make such reports; (C) install, use, and maintain such monitoring equipment, and use such audit procedures, or methods; (D) sample such emissions (in accordance with such procedures or methods, at such locations , at such intervals, during such periods, and in such manner as the Administrator shall prescribe); (E) keep records on control equipment parameters, production variables or other indirect data when direct monitoring of emissions is impractical; (F) submit compliance certifications in accordance with Section 114(a)(3); and (G) provide such other information as the Administrator may reasonabl y require. In the Administrator's judgment, emissions from beverage can coating facilities cause or contribute to ai r pollution that may reasonably

be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare. Therefore, the NSPS were promulgated for this source category at 40 CFR part 60, subpart WW.3

**2(b) Practical Utility/Users of the Data** The recordkeeping and reporting requirements in the standards ensure compliance with the applicable regulations which where promulgated in accordance with the Clean Air Act. The collected information is also used for targeting inspections and as evidence in legal proceedings. Performan ce tests are required in order to determine an affected facility ’ s initial capability to comply

with the emission standards. Continuous emission monitors are used to ensure compliance with the standards at all times. During the performance test a record of the operating parameters under which compliance was achieved may be recorded and used to determine compliance in place of a continuous emission monitor. The notifications required in the standard are used to inform the Agency or delegated authority when a source becomes subject to the requirements of the regulations. The reviewing authority may then inspect the source to check if : 1) the pollution control devices are properl y installed and operated 2) leaks are being detected and repaired ; and 3) the standards are being met. The performance test may also be observed. The required semiannual reports are used to determine periods of excess emissions, identify problems at the facility , verify operation/maintenance procedures and for compliance determinatio ns. **3. Non**
**- duplication, Consultations, and Other Collection Criteria**  The recordkeeping and reporting requested are required under 40 CFR part 60, subpart WW. **3(a) Non**
**- duplication**  If the subject standards have not been delegated, the information is sent directl y to the appropriate EPA regional office. Otherwise, the information is sent directl y to the delegated state or local agency . If a state or local agency has adopted its own similar standards to implement the Federal standards, a cop y of the report submitted to the state or local agency can be sent to the Administrator in lieu of the report required b y the Federal standards. Therefore, duplication does not exist. **3(b) P ublic Notice Required Prior to ICR Submission to OMB**  An announcement of a public comment period for the renewal of this I CR was published in the Federal Register (7 7 FR 47631 ) on August 9 , 20 12 . No comments were received on the burden published in the Fe deral Register

. **3(c) Consultations**
The Agency ’s industry

experts have been consulted, and the Agency ’s internal data sources and projections of industry growth over the next three years have been considered.4

The primary

source of information as reported b y industry , in compliance with the recordkeeping and reporting provisions in the standard, is the Online Tracking Information Sy stem (OTIS) which is operated and maintained by the EPA Office of Compliance. OTIS is the EPA database for the collec tion, maintenance, and retrieval of all compliance data. The growth rate for the industry is based on our consultations with the Agency ’s internal industry experts. Industry trade associations and other interested parties were provided an opportunity to comment on the burden associated with the standard as it was being developed. In developing this I CR, we contacted : 1) the American Coatings Association (ACA) , at (202) 719

- 3703 ; and 2) the Association of Industrial Metallizers, Coaters and Laminators (AIMCAL) , at (803) 802

- 7820

. It is our policy

to respond after a thorough review of comments received since the last ICR renewal as well as those submitted in response to the first Federal Register notice. In this case, no comments were received **3(d) Ef**  **fects of Less Frequent Collection** Less frequent information collection would decrease the margin of assurance that facilities are continuing to meet the standards. Requirements for information gathering and recordkeeping are useful techniques to ensure that good operation and maintenance practices are applied and emission limitations are met. If the information required by these standards was collected less frequentl y, the proper operation and maintenance of control equipment and the possibility

of dete cting violations would be less likely

. **3(e) General Guidelines** These reporting or recordkeeping requirements do not violate any of the regulations promulgated b y OMB under 5 CFR part 1320, section 1320.5. **3(f) Confidentiality** Any information submitted to the Agency for which a claim of confidentiality is made will be safeguarded according to the Agency policies set forth in Title 40, chapter 1, part 2, subpart B

- Confidentiality of Business Information (CBI) (see 40 CFR 2; 41 FR 36902, September 1, 1976; amended by 43 FR 40000, September 8, 1978; 43 FR 42251, September 20, 1978; 44 FR 17674, March 23, 1979). **3(g) Sensitive Questions** The reporting or recordkeeping requirements in the standard do not include sensitive question s. **4. The Respondents and the Information Requested 4(a) Respondents/SIC Codes** 5

The respondents to the recordkeeping and reporting requirements are facilities that conduct surface coating of beverage cans. The United States Standard Industrial Classif ication (SI C) code for the respondents affected b y the standards is SI C 3411 , which corresponds to the North American Industry Classification System (NAI CS) 332431 for M etal C an M anufacturing. **4(b) Information Requested (i) Data Items**  All data in thi s I CR that is recorded and/or reported is required b y 40 CFR part 60, subpart WW. A source must make the following reports:
**Notifications** Construction/reconstruction 60.7(a)(1) Anticipated startup 60.7(a)(2) Actual startup 60.7(a)(3) Notification of i nitial p erformance test 60.8(d) Phy sical or operational change 60.7(a)(4)
**Reports** Initial performance test results 60.8 (a), 60.495(a) Demonstration of continuous monitoring sy stem 60.7(a)(5) Semiannual report 60.7(c), 60.495(c) Excess emissions report 60.7(c), 60.495(c) A source must maintain the following records: **Recordkeeping** Startups, shutdowns, malfunctions, periods where the continuous monitoring sy stem is inoperative 60.7(b) Monthly performance test 60.493(b) Records are required to be retained for two years. The first two ye ars of records must be retained at the facility. 60.495(d) Maintain a file of all measurements including the monitoring device, and performance testing measurements, and monitoring device calibrations, checks, a djustments and maintenance performed on these devices. 60.7(e)6 **Recordkeeping** Maintain daily

records of incinerator combustion temperature, or amounts of solvent recovered. 60.494(c)
Electronic Reporting Some of the respondents are using monitoring equipment that automatically records parameter data. Although personnel at the affected facility must still evaluate the data, internal automation has significantly reduced the burden associated with monitoring and recordkeeping at a plant site. Also, regulatory

agencies in c ooperation with the respondents continue to create reporting sy stems to transmit data electronically . However, electronic reporting s ys tems are still not widely used. At this time, it is estimated that approximately 10 percent of the respondents use electronic reporting.

**(ii) Respondent Activities**

**Respondent Activities** Read instructions. Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate a device that continuously records the combustion temperature of any effluent gases incinerated to achieve compliance. Perform initial performance test, Reference Method 24 or Reference Method 25 test, and repeat performance tests if necessary

. Write the notifications and reports listed above. Enter information required to be recorded above. Submit the required reports developing, acquiring, installing, and utilizing technology and sy stems for the purpose of collecting, validating, and verifying information. Develop, acquire, install, and utilize te chnology and sy stems for the purpose of processing and maintaining information. Develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and sy stems for the purpose of disclosing and providing information. Adjust the existing way s to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements. Train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information. Transmit, or otherwise disclose the information. Currently sources are using monitoring and reporting equipment that provide parameter data in an automated way e.g., continuous parameter monitoring s ys tem. Although personnel at the source still need to evaluate the data, this type of monitoring equipment has significantly7

reduced the burden associated with monitoring and recordkeeping
**5. The Information Collected: Agency Activities, Collection Methodology, and Information**  **Management 5(a) Agency Activities**  EPA conducts the following activities in connection with the acquisition, analy sis, storage, and distribution of the required information. **Agency Activities** Observe initial performance tests and repeat performance tests if necessary

. Review notifications and reports, including performance test reports, and excess emissions reports, required to be submitted by industry

. Audit facility

records. Input, anal yz e, and maintain data in the Online Tracking Information Sy stem (OTI S)

. **5(b) Collection Methodology and Management** Following notification of startup, the reviewing authority could inspect the source to determine whether the pollution control devices are properl y installed and operated

. Performance test reports are used b y the Agency to discern a source’s initial capability to comply

with the emission standard s. Data and records maintained by the respondents are tabulated and published for use in compliance and enforcement programs. The semiannual reports are used for problem identification, as a check on source operation and maintenance, and for compliance determinations.
In formation contained in the reports is entered into OTI S which is operated and maintained by

EPA's Office of Compliance. OTIS is EPA’s database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance data for approximately 125,000 industrial and government

- owned facilities. EPA uses the OTI S for tracking air pollution compliance and enforcement b y local and state regulatory agencies, EPA regional offices and EPA headquarters. EPA and its delegated Authorities can edit, store, retrieve and analyze the data. The records required b y this regulatio n must be retained by the owner/operator for two ye ars. **5(c) Small Entity Flexibility** A majority

of the affected facilities are large entities (e.g., large businesses). However, the impact on small entities (i.e., small businesses) was taken into consi deration during the development of the regulation. Due to technical considerations involving the process operations and the ty pes of control equipment employed, the recordkeeping and reporting requirements are the same for both small and large entities. The Agency considers these to be the minimum8

requirements needed to ensure compliance and, therefore, cannot reduce them further for small entities. To the extent that larger businesses can use economies of scale to reduce their burden, the overall burden will be reduced. **5(d) Collection Schedule** The specific frequency

for each information collection activity within this request is shown below in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Beverage Can Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart WW) (Renewal)

. **6. Estimating the Burden and Cost of the Collection** Table 1 documents the computation of individual burdens for the recordkeeping and reporting requirements applicable to the industry for the subpart included in this I CR. The individual burdens are expressed under standardized headings believed to be consistent with the concept of burden under the Paperwork Reduction Act. Wherever appropriate, specific tasks and major assumptions have been identified. Responses to this information coll ection are mandatory

. The 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. **6(a) Estimating Respondent Burden** The average annual burden to industry over the next three years from these recordkeeping and reporting requirements is estimated to be 5,134 (Total Labor Hours from Table 1 below). These hours are based on Agency studies and background documents from the development of the regulation, Agency

knowledge and experience with the NSPS program , the previously approved ICR, and any comments received. **6(b) Estimating Respondent Costs (i) Estimating Labor Costs**  This I CR uses the following labor rates: Managerial $ 121.44 ($ 57.83 + 110%) Technical $100.23 ($47.73 + 110%) Clerical $50.51 ($24.05 + 110%) These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, March 2012 , “ Table 2. Civilian Workers by occupational and industry group. ” The rates are from column 1, “ Total compensation

. ” The rates have been increased b y 110 percent to account for the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry

.9 **(ii) Estimating Capital/Startup and Operation and Maintenance Costs** The ty pe of industry

costs associated with the information collection activ ities in the subject standard are both labor costs which are addressed elsewhere in this ICR and the costs associated with continuous monitoring. The capital/startup costs are one

- time costs when a facility becomes subject to the regulation. The annual operation and maintenance costs are the ongoin g costs to maintain the monitor and other costs such as photocopying and postage.

There are no capital/startup costs for this IC R . This is the total of column D in the above table

. The total operation and maintenance (O&M) costs for this IC R are $100,800 . This is the total of column G. The average annual cost for capital/startup and operation and maintenance costs to industry over the next three years of the IC R is estimated to be $100,800. Th i s is the cost of recordkeeping. **6(c) Estimating Agency Burden and Cost** The only costs to the Agency

are those costs associated with anal ys is of the reported information. EPA's overall compliance and enforcement program includes activities such as the examination of records maintained by the respondents, periodic inspection of sources of emissions, and the publication and distribution of collected information. The average annual Agency cost during the three years of the ICR is estimated to be $12,437. This c ost is based on the average hourl y labor rate as follows: Managerial $ 62.27 (GS

- 13, Step 5, $ 38.92 x 1.6) Technical $46.21 (GS

- 12, Step 1, $28.88 x 1.6) Clerical $25.01 (GS

- 6, Step 3, $15.63 x 1.6) These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 201 2 General Schedule,10

which excludes locality , rates of pay . The rates have been increased by 60 percent to account for the benefit packages available to government employees
. Details upon which this estimate is based appear below in T able 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Beverage Can Surface Coating (40 CFR P art 60, S ubpart WW) (Renewal)

. **6(d) Estimating the Respondent Universe and Total Burden and Costs** Based on our research for this I CR , on average over the next three ye ars, approximately 48 existing respondents will be subject to the standard. It is estimated that no additional respondents per ye ar will become subject. The overall average number of respondents, as shown in the table below, is 48 per year. **Numbe r of Respondents**  Year (A) Number of Ne w Respondents 1 (B)

. **6(e) Bottom Line Burden Hours and Cost Tables** The detailed bottom line burden hours and cost calculations for the respondents and the Agency are shown in Tables 1 and 2, respectivel y, and summarized below. **(i) Respondent Tally** The total annual labor hours are 5,134 at a cost of $497,092 . Details regarding these estimates may

be found below in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Beverage Can Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart WW) (Renewal). Furthermore, the annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 43 hours per response. The total annual capital/startup and O&M costs to the regulated entity are $100,800 . The cost calculations are detailed in Section 6(b)(iii), Capital/Startup vs. Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Costs. **(ii) The Agency Tally**  The average annual Agency burden and cost over next three years is estimated to be 276 labor hours at a cost of $ 12,437 . See : Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Beverage Can Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart WW ) (Renewal). The bottom line burden hours and cost tables for both the Respondents and Agency are attached below and are shown in Tables 1 and 2, respectivel y, and summarized below. **6(f) Reasons for Change in Burden** There is no change in labor hours in this I CR compared to the previous I CR. This is due to two considerations : 1) the regulations have not changed over the past three ye ars 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. However, there is an increase in the total labor and Agency costs as currentl y identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burd ens. This increase is not due to any program changes. The change in cost estimates reflects updated labors rates available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. **6(g) 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 financial12

resources expended b y persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This include s the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and s ys tems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing way s to compl y 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. An agency

may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB Control Number. The OMB Control Numbers for EPA regulations are listed at 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15. To comment on the Agency's need for this information, the accuracy of the provided burden estimates, and any suggested methods for minimizing respondent burden, including the use of automated collection techniques, EPA ha s established a public docket for this I CR under Docket ID Number EPA
