    Title: NSPS for Metal Coil Surface Coating (Renewal).
    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 0660.11, OMB Control Number 2060-0107.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2011. 
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 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: New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for the 
regulations published at 40 CFR part 60, subpart TT were proposed on 
January 5, 1981 and promulgated on November 1, 1982. These regulations 
apply to the following surface coating lines in the metal coil surface 
coating industry: each prime coat operation, each finish coat 
operation, and each prime and finish coat operation cured 
simultaneously where the finish coat is applied wet on wet over the 
prime coat.
    In general, all New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) require 
initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports. 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. These notifications, reports, and records are 
essential in determining compliance, and are required of all sources 
subject to NSPS.
    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 TT, as 
authorized in sections 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 41 
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: Metal coil surface coating 
facilities.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 158.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, annually, and 
semiannually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 15,643.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $1,829,259, which includes $1,497,459 
in labor costs, no capital/startup costs, and $331,800 in operation and 
maintenance (O&M) costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the labor hours in 
this ICR compared to the previous ICR. Consultations with EPA's Office 
of Air Quality Planning and Standards (OAQPS) and trade associations 
revealed that there are approximately 158 sources subject to the rule, 
with no new facilities expected to be constructed over the next three 
years of this ICR.
    However, there is an increase in the estimated burden cost as 
currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. The 
increase is not due to any program changes. The change in burden is due 
to the use of the most updated labor rates.
