Title: NESHAP for Plating and 

Polishing Operations (Renewal). 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 

2294.03, OMB Control Number 2060– 

0623. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on January 31, 2012. Under OMB 

regulations, the Agency may continue to 

conduct or sponsor the collection of 

information while 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 numbers for EPA’s 

regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after 

appearing in the Federal Register when 

approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, 

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: 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 

General Provisions specified at 40 CFR 

part 63, subpart WWWWWW. 

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. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 16 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 plating and 

polishing operations. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

2,900. 

Frequency of Response: Initially, and 

annually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

33,108. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$3,180,693, which includes $3,172,379 

in labor costs, $8,314 in capital/startup 

costs, and no operating and 

maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease in the total hours as currently 

identified in the OMB Inventory of 

Approved Burdens due to a 

mathematical error in determining the 

person hours per respondent in the 

previous ICR. There is an increase in 

labor costs. This is not due to any 

program changes. The change in the cost 

estimates occurred due to adjustments 

in labor rates for both respondents and 

the Agency.

Title: Air Pollution Regulations for 

Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Activities 

(Renewal). 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1601.08, 

OMB Control No. 2060–0249. 

ICR Status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on January 31, 

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, 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: Section 328 of the Clean Air 

Act gives EPA responsibility for 

regulating air pollution from outer 

continental shelf (OCS) sources located 

offshore of the states along the Pacific, 

Arctic and Atlantic Coasts, and along 

the eastern Gulf of Mexico coast (off the 

coast of Florida). In general, these OCS 

sources must obtain preconstruction 

permits (usually Prevention of 

Significant Deterioration or ‘‘PSD’’ 

permits) and title V operating permits, 

and then maintain ongoing compliance 

with their permit conditions. Industry 

respondents include owners or 

operators of existing and new or 

modified OCS sources. These 

respondents must prepare permit 

applications and, after receiving their 

permits, conduct testing, monitoring, 

recordkeeping and reporting as required 

by their permits. The recordkeeping and 

reporting requirements are necessary so 

that EPA can determine whether these 

sources are meeting all the requirements 

that apply to them. EPA has delegated 

the authority to implement and enforce 

the OCS regulations for sources located 

off the coast of California to four local 

air pollution control agencies. 

These agency respondents must 

review sources’ permit applications and 

reports, issue permits, observe 

performance tests and conduct 

inspections to ensure that the sources 

are meeting all the requirements that 

apply to them. Section 176(c) of the 

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

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. 

The type and quantity of information 

required will depend on the 

circumstances surrounding the action. 

First, the entity must make an 

applicability determination. If the 

source is located within 25 miles of the 

state’s seaward boundaries as 

established in the regulations, the 

requirements are the same as those that 

would be applicable if the source were 

located in the corresponding onshore 

area. State and local air pollution 

control agencies are usually requested to 

provide information concerning 

regulation of offshore sources and are 

provided opportunities to comment on 

the proposed determinations. The 

public is also provided an opportunity 

to comment on the proposed 

determinations. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 124 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. 

Estimated Total Number of Potential 

Respondents: 42 (38 sources and 4 local 

agencies). 

Estimated Number of Responses: 228. 

Frequency of Response: Annual. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 28,174. 

Estimated Total Annual Costs: 

$2,532,877, which includes no 

annualized capital/startup costs, 

$34,900 in O&M costs and $2,497,977 in 

annual labor costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease of 2,623 hours and $7,856 in 

capital/startup and O&M costs in the 

total estimated burden currently 

identified in the OMB Inventory of 

Approved ICR Burdens. This decrease 

has occurred because projections from 

BOEM and other considerations have 

resulted in changes in the number, mix 

and types of sources projected to occur 

in the upcoming clearance period. As a 

result of the decrease in annual burden 

hours, which is partially offset by 

updated 2011 wage rates, the estimated 

annual labor cost has decreased by 

$70,212.
