application to EPA for recognition in the 

Partner of the Year Awards program. 

Responses to this information 

collection are voluntary. Respondents 

may claim all or part of a response 

confidential. EPA will disclose 

information that is covered by a claim 

of confidentiality only to the extent 

permitted by, and in accordance with, 

the procedures in TSCA section 14 and 

40 CFR part 2. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Entities potentially affected by this ICR 

are establishments engaged in the 

production, use, and/or advancement of 

safer chemicals, that have furthered the 

goals of EPA’s Safer Chemical program 

through active and exemplary 

participation in and promotion of the 

program, and that wish to receive 

recognition for their achievements. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Voluntary. 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 50. 

Frequency of response: Annual. 

Estimated total burden: 750 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.3(b). 

Estimated total costs: $45,486 (per 

year), includes no annualized capital 

investment or maintenance and 

operational costs. 

Changes in the estimates: There is a 

decrease of 900 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with that identified in the ICR currently 

approved by OMB. 

This decrease reflects the experience 

of EPA’s Safer Choice program since 

OMB first approved this information 

collection. The Safer Choice program 

conducted its first Partner of the Year 

Awards in 2015, at which time EPA had 

received applications from 35 

respondents. Based upon revised 

estimates, EPA has reduced the 

estimated number of respondents from 

110 to 50, with a corresponding 

decrease in the associated burden. This 

change is an adjustment.

Abstract: These emission guidelines 

apply to small municipal waste 

combustors (MWCs) constructed on or 

before August 30, 1999, that combust 

greater than 35 tons per day (tpd) but 

less than 250 tpd of municipal solid 

waste. The emission guidelines regulate 

organics (dioxin/furans), metals 

(cadmium, lead, mercury, and 

particulate matter), and acid gases 

(hydrogen chloride, sulfur dioxide, and 

nitrogen oxides). The emission 

guidelines require initial reports, 

semiannual reports, and annual reports. 

Owners or operators also are 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. Owners or operators subject 

to these regulations are required to 

maintain records of measurements and 

reports for at least five years. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: Small 

municipal waste combustion units. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart 

BBBB). 

Estimated number of respondents: 23 

(total). 

Frequency of response: Initially, 

semiannually and annually. 

Total estimated burden: 102,000 

hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 

CFR 1320.3(b). 

Total estimated cost: $11,200,000 (per 

year), includes $1,040,000 annualized 

capital or operation & maintenance 

costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

adjustment increase in the respondent

Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 17 / Wednesday, January 27, 2016 / Notices 4623 

burden from the most recently approved 

ICR. The increase in respondent labor 

hour is caused by a change in 

assumption; in this ICR, we assume all 

existing sources will take some time 

each year to re-familiarize themselves 

with the rule requirements. There is also 

a small increase in the total O&M cost 

due to rounding of all calculated values 

to three significant digits.

Abstract: These standards apply to the 

area source NESHAP for chemical 

manufacturing (40 CFR part 63, subpart 

VVVVVV). There are nine area source 

categories in the chemical 

manufacturing sector: Agricultural 

Chemicals and Pesticides 

Manufacturing, Cyclic Crude and 

Intermediate Production, Industrial 

Inorganic Chemical Manufacturing, 

Industrial Organic Chemical 

Manufacturing, Inorganic Pigments 

Manufacturing, Miscellaneous Organic 

Chemical Manufacturing, Plastic 

Materials and Resins Manufacturing, 

Pharmaceutical Production, and 

Synthetic Rubber Manufacturing. The 

requirements apply to process vents, 

storage tanks, equipment leaks, 

wastewater systems, transfer operations, 

and heat exchange systems at affected 

sources in each area source category and 

are combined in one subpart. The 

standards are based on EPA’s 

determination of generally available 

control technology (GACT) or 

management practices for each area 

source category. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Chemical manufacturing area source 

facilities. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart 

VVVVVV). 

Estimated number of respondents: 

498 (total). 

Frequency of response: Initially and 

semiannually. 

Total estimated burden: 9,590 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.3(b). 

Total estimated cost: $2,220,000 (per 

year), includes $1,250,000 annualized 

capital or operation & maintenance 

costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

adjustment decrease in the respondent 

burden and number of responses from 

the most recently approved ICR. The 

decrease occurred because the rule has 

been in effect for three years, and the 

burden associated with initial 

compliance (e.g. initial performance 

tests and notification reports) differ 

from the burden for ongoing compliance 

(e.g. submittal of semiannual reports). 

However, there is an adjustment 

increase in the total capital and O&M 

cost. This is primarily due to two 

reasons: (1) The previous ICR presented 

capital costs as annualized costs over 15 

years, rather than one-time costs; and (2) 

the total number of sources with O&M 

cost (i.e. maintain systems and 

monitors) has increased now that the 

rule is fully implemented.
