Title: NESHAP for Coke Oven 

Batteries (Renewal). 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 

1362.09, OMB Control Number 2060– 

0253. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on May 31, 2012. Under OMB 

regulations, the Agency may continue to 

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 L. 

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 63, subpart L, 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. 

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. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 1,908 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 coke oven 

batteries. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

19. 

Frequency of Response: Initially, 

occasionally, and semiannually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

80,120. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$7,676,989, which includes $7,676,989 

in labor costs, and no capital/startup 

costs or operation and maintenance 

(O&M) costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease of one hour in the respondent 

burden hours in this ICR compared to 

the most recently approved ICR due to 

rounding errors. This ICR was updated 

with more accurate burden calculations. 

There is an increase in burden costs 

from the most recently approved ICR. 

This increase is not due to any program 

changes. The change in cost estimates 

occurred because this ICR uses updated 

labor rates in calculating the burden 

costs for both the respondents and the 

Agency.

Title: Prevention of Significant 

Deterioration and Nonattainment New 

Source Review (Renewal). 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1230.29, 

OMB Control No. 2060–0003. 

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 the 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 the 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 are 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: Part C of Title I of the Clean 

Air Act (Act) (42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.)— 

‘‘Prevention of Significant 

Deterioration’’ (PSD), and Part D—‘‘Plan 

Requirements for Nonattainment 

Areas,’’ require all states to adopt 

preconstruction review programs for 

new or modified major stationary 

sources of air pollution. In addition, the 

provisions of section 110 of the Act 

include a requirement for states to have 

a preconstruction review program to 

manage the emissions from the 

construction and modification of any 

stationary source of air pollution to 

assure that the National Ambient Air 

Quality Standards (NAAQS) are 

achieved and maintained. Section 

176(c) of the Act requires that all federal 

actions conform with the state 

implementation plans (SIPs) to attain 

and maintain the NAAQS. Depending 

on the type of action, the federal entities 

must collect information themselves, 

hire consultants to collect the 

information or require applicants/ 

sponsors of the federal action to provide 

the information. 

Implementing regulations for these 

three programs are promulgated at 40 

CFR 51.160 through 51.166; 40 CFR part 

51, Appendix S; and 40 CFR 52.21 and 

52.24. In order to receive a construction 

permit for a major new source or major 

modification, the applicant must 

conduct the necessary research, perform 

the appropriate analyses and prepare 

the permit application with 

documentation to demonstrate that their 

project meets all applicable statutory 

and regulatory ‘‘new source review’’ 

(NSR) requirements. Specific activities 

and requirements are listed and 

described in the Supporting Statement 

for the ICR. 

Reviewing authorities, either state, 

local or federal, review the permit 

application and provide for public 

review of the proposed project and issue 

the permit based on consideration of all 

technical factors and public input. The 

EPA, more broadly, reviews a fraction of 

the total applications and audits the 

state and local programs for their 

effectiveness. Consequently, 

information prepared and submitted by 

the source is essential for the source to 

receive a permit, and for federal, state 

and local environmental agencies to 

adequately review the permit 

application and thereby properly 

administer and manage the NSR 

programs. 

Since the previous renewal of this 

ICR, the EPA has filled regulatory voids 

that existed in Indian country (where 

state NSR programs do not apply) by 

promulgating a Part D program and a 

minor NSR program for Indian country. 

(The EPA was already implementing a 

Part C program in Indian country.) The 

implementing regulations for these 

programs are at 40 CFR 49.151 through 

49.173. The EPA acts as the reviewing 

authority for these programs. 

Information that is collected is 

handled according to the EPA’s policies 

set forth in title 40, chapter 1, part 2, 

subpart B—Confidentiality of Business 

Information (see 40 CFR part 2). See also 

section 114(c) of the Act. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average about 49 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: 

Industrial plants; state and local 

reviewing authorities. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

87,481, including 87,369 industry 

sources and 112 state and local 

reviewing authorities. 

Frequency of Response: Responses 

generally are associated with NSR 

permit actions, which are required on 

occasion when facilities wish to 

construct or modify. In addition, 

existing minor sources will be required 

to submit a one-time registration during 

implementation of the minor NSR 

program in Indian country. Finally, state 

and local reviewing authorities are 

required to submit SIP revisions on 

occasion when the NSR regulations 

change. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

7,934,340 hours. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$707,226,735, including $694,641,672 

in labor costs and $12,585,063 in 

annualized capital or start-up costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: The burden 

has changed since the previous renewal 

due in part to an increase in the number 

of responses and per-permit burden due 

to the addition of GHGs to the PSD 

program. In addition, the extension of 

minor NSR and part D programs to 

Indian country to fill these regulatory 

gaps has increased the number of 

responses and the overall burden. 

Finally, the burden has been increased 

by the addition of provisions in the PSD 

program that will allow full integration 

of PM2.5. 

Also contributing to the increase in 

burden has been a change in the labor 

rates. As explained in section 6(b)(i), in 

order to improve the accuracy of burden 

estimates, the rates were recalculated 

using 2011 values for wages.
