SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency has submitted an 
information collection request (ICR), ``NESHAP for Benzene Waste 
Operations (40 CFR part 61, subpart FF) (Renewal)'' (EPA ICR No. 
1541.11, OMB Control No. 2060-0183), to the Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) for review and approval in accordance with the Paperwork 
Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). This is a proposed extension of 
the ICR, which is currently approved through September 30, 2015. Public

30117) on May 27, 2014, during a 60-day comment period. This notice 
allows for an additional 30 days for public comments. A fuller 
description of the ICR is given below, including its estimated burden 
and cost to the public. 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.

2015.

    Abstract: The affected entities are subject to the General 
Provisions of the NESHAP (40 CFR part 61, subpart A), and any changes, 
or additions, to the Provisions are specified at 40 CFR part 61, 
subpart FF. Owners or operators of the affected facilities must submit 
an initial notification report, 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.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Owners and operators of facilities 
that generate or receive benzene waste.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 61, 
subpart FF).
    Estimated number of respondents: 270 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, quarterly and 
annually.
    Total estimated burden: 19,200 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $1,930,000 (per year), including $0 in 
annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the 
respondent burden from the most recently approved ICR. The increase is 
primarily attributed to correcting an entry error in the number of 
respondents that record monthly benzene waste concentration data under 
Table 1, labor item 4(c)(ii). In addition, we have rounded all total 
values to 3 significant figures.
    There is also an adjustment increase in the number of responses due 
to a correction. The previous ICR did not account for quarterly 
emission reports and notifications of offsite facilities in calculating 
the number of responses.
