    Title: NSPS for Lime Manufacturing (Renewal).
    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1167.10, OMB Control Number 2060-0063.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on April 30, 2012. 
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 Number for the EPA 
regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15, and are 
identified on the form and/or instrument, if applicable.
    Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards for Lime 
Manufacturing 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 HH.
    Owners or operators of the affected facilities must submit initial 
notification, 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.
    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 directly to the EPA regional office. This information is being 
collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 60, subpart HH, as 
authorized in section 112 and 114(a) of the Clean Air Act. The required 
information consists of emissions data and other information that have 
been determined to be private.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 46 
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: Lime production facilities.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 41
    Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 3,772
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $422,931, which includes $361,431 in 
labor costs, no capital/startup costs, and $61,500 in operation and 
maintenance (O&M) costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: 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 adjustments in labor rates. This ICR 
uses updated labor rates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics to 
calculate burden costs.
    There is a decrease of one hour in labor hours for the respondents 
related to a mathematical rounding error in the previous ICR. There is 
no change in the estimation methodology for labor hours to the 
respondents 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 respondents is very low, negative, 
or non-existent.
