**SUPPORTING STATEMENT ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY**  **NSPS for**  **Other Solid Waste Incineration Units (40 CFR Part**  **60 , Subpart**  **EEEE )**  **(Renewal) 1. Identification of the Information Collection**  **1(a) Title of the Information Collection** NSPS for Other Solid Waste Incineration Units (40 CFR Part 60 , Subpart EEEE ) (Renewal), EPA I CR Number 2163.05 , OMB Control Number 2060

- 0563

. **1(b) Short Characterization/Abstract** The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Other Solid Waste Incineration (OSWI) Units (40 CFR Part 60 Subpart EEEE) were proposed on December 9, 2004 , promulgated on December 16, 2005, and revised on November 24, 2006

. These regulations apply to very small municipal waste combustion units and institutional waste incineration units. A new incineration unit subject to this subpart should meet either of the two criteria: 1) commenced construction after December 9, 2004; or 2) commenced reconstruction or modification on or after June 16, 2006

. A very small municipal waste combus tion unit is any municipal waste combustion unit that has the capacity to combust less than 35 tons per day of municipal solid waste or refuse

- derived fuel. An institutional waste incineration unit is any combustion unit that combusts institutional waste and is a distinct operating unit of the institutional facility

that generated the waste. Institutional waste is solid waste that is combusted at any institutional facility using controlled flame combustion in an enclosed, distinct operating unit: whose design does not provide for energy recovery ; operated without energy recovery ; or operated with onl y waste heat recovery. Institutional waste also means solid waste combusted on site in an air curtain incinerator that is a distinct operating unit of any institutional facility

. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart EEEE

. In general, all NSPS standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by

the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affect ed facility , or any period during which the monitoring sy stem is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NSPS. Any owner/operator subject to th e provisions of this part shall maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at least five years following the date of such measurements, maintenance reports, and records. 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 United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regional office. Currently there are no OSWIunits that subject to the regulations, and it is estimated that no additional respondents per year will become subject to the regulation over the next three2

ye ars. The economical cost of complying with the proposed NSPS makes it more likely that sources will select an alternative method of waste disposal. Based on the information gathered including the results of our consultations, we have concluded that, to date, no new OSWIunits are being constructed, even in the absence o f regulations, because other waste disposal alternatives, such as landfills, are more economical. Therefore, the number of respondents remains at zero.
The active IC R had the following Terms of Clearance (TOC):
When this I CR is renewed, EPA should rev iew the respondent burden, universe, response number, labor rates, and capital costs and ensure these estimates have been updated. Inparticular, EPA should reevaluate the universe in light of the definition of non

- hazardous waste regulation. EPA has addressed each item of concern in the TOC by consulting our internal experts and industry

trade associations

. We believe the respondent universe remains to be zero. All of the OSWI units in the United States are owned and operated by the solid waste incineration industry

(the “Affected Public”), which is privately

- owned, for

- profit businesses. None of the facilities in the United States are owned by state, local, tribal or the Federal government. The burden to the “Affected Public” may be fo und in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Other Solid Waste Incineration Units (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart EEEE) (Renewal). The burden to the “Federal Government” is attributed entirely to work performed b y federal employees or government contractors and can be found in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Other Solid Waste Incineration Units (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart EEEE) (Renewal).
**2. Need for and Use of the Collection 2(a) Need/Authority for the Collection**  The EPA is charged under Section 111 of the Clean Air Act (CAA), as amended, to establish standards of performance for new stationary sources that reflect:

**. . .** application of the best technological sy stem of continuous emissions reduction which (taking into consideration the cost of achieving such emissions reduction, or any non - air quality health and environmental impact and energy requirements) the Administrat or determines has been adequatel y demonstrated. Section 111(a)(l). The Agency

refers to this charge as selecting the best demonstrated technology (BDT). Section 111 also requires that the Administrator review and, if appropriate, revise su ch standards e very3

four years. In addition, section 114(a) states that the Administrator may require any

owner/operator subject to any

requirement of this Act to: (A) Establish and maintain such records; (B) make such reports; (C) install, use, and maintain such moni toring equipment, and use such audit procedures, or methods; (D) sample such emissions (in accordance with such procedures or methods, at such locations, at such intervals, during such periods, and in such manner as the Administrator shall prescribe); (E) keep records on control equipment parameters, production variables or other indirect data when direct monitoring of emissions is impractical; (F) submit compliance certifications in accordance with Section 114(a)(3); and (G) provide such other information as the Administrator may reasonabl y r equire. In the Administrator's judgment, particulate matter, sulfur dioxide, hydrogen chloride, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, lead, cadmium, mercury , and dioxin/furans emissions from OSWI units cause or contribute to air pollution that may reasonabl y be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare. Therefore, the NSPS was promulgated for this source category at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart EEEE

. **2(b) Practical Utility/Users of the Data** The recordkeeping and reporting requirements in the standard ensure compliance with the applicable regulations which w ere promulgated in accordance with the Clean Air Act. The collected information is also used for targeting inspections and as evidence in legal proceedings.
P erformance tests are required in order to determine an affected facility ’ s initial capability to comp ly

with the emission standard . Continuous emission monitors are used to ensure compliance with the standard at all times. During the performance test a rec ord of the operating parameters under which compliance was achieved may be recorded and used to determine compliance in place of a continuous emission monitor. The notificati ons required in the standard are used to inform the Agency or delegated authority when a source becomes subject to the requirements of the regulations. The reviewing authority may then inspect the source to check if the pollution control devices are properl y installed and operated , that leaks are being detected and repaired and the st andard are being met. The performance test may also be observed. The required semi annual reports are used to determine periods of excess emissions, identify problems at the facility , verify operation/maintenance procedures and for compliance determinatio ns.4

**3. Nonduplication, Consultations, and Other Collection Criteria** The requested recordkeeping an d reporting are required under 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart EEEE

. **3(a) Nonduplication** If the subject standards have not been delegated, the information is s ent directl y to the appropriate EPA regional office. Otherwise, the information is sent directl y to the delegated state or local agency . If a state or local agency has adopted its own similar standards to implement the Federal standards, a cop y of the re port submitted to the state or local agency can be sent to the Administrator in lieu of the report required by the Federal standards. Therefore, no duplication exists. **3(b) Public Notice Required Prior to ICR Submission to OMB** An announcement of a public comment period for the renewal of this I CR was published in the Federal Register ( 79 FR 30117) on May 27, 2014. Two comments were received on the burden published in the Federal Register and is addressed in section 3(c) below

. **3(c) Consultations** The Agency ’s industry

experts have been consulted, and the Agency ’s internal data sources and projections of industry growth over the next three years have been considered. The primary source of information as reported b y industry , in compliance with the recordkeeping and reporting provisions in the standard, is Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO), which is operated and maintained by EPA's Office of Compliance. ECHO is EPA’s database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of all compliance data. The growth rate for the industry is based on our consultations with the Agency ’s internal industry experts. Industry trade associations and other interested parties were provided an opportunity to comment on the burden a ssociated with the standard as it was being developed. In developing this I CR, we contacted the National Solid Waste Management Association (NSWMA) at (202) 364

- 3773 , and the Solid Waste Association of North America (SWANA) at (240) 494

- 2253. The EPA did not receive any comments from the consultations. It is our policy

to respond after a thorough review of comments received since the last ICR renewal as well as those submitted in response to the first Federal Register notice. EPA received two comments in response in the first Federal Register notice, but the comments do not contain any substantive recommendations specific to this NSPS and did not result in changes to this I CR. **3(d) Effects of Less Frequent Collection** Less f requent information collection would decrease the margin of assurance that5

facilities are continuing to meet the standards. Requirements for information gathering and recordkeeping are useful techniques to ensure that good operation and maintenance practi ces are applied and emission limitations are met. If the information required by these standards was collected less frequentl y, the proper operation and maintenance of control equipment and the possibility

of detecting violations would be less likely

. **3( e) General Guidelines** 
These reporting or recordkeeping requirements do not violate any of the regulations promulgated b y OMB under 5 CFR Part 1320, Section 1320.5. These standards require the respondents to maintain all records, including reports and notifications for at least five years. This is consistent with the General Provisions as applied to the standards. EPA believes that the five ye ar records retention re quirement is consistent with the Part 70 permit program and the five ye ar statute of limitations on which the permit program is based. The retention of records for five years allow s EPA to establish the compliance history of a source , any pattern of non - c ompliance and to determine the appropriate level of enforcement action. EPA has found that the most flagrant violators have violations extending beyond five ye ars. In addition, EPA would be prevented from pursuing the violators due to the destruction or nonexistence of essential records

. **3(f) Confidentiality** Any information submitted to the Agency for which a claim of confidentiality is made will be safeguarded according to the Agency policies set forth in Title 40, chapter 1, part 2, subpart B

- Confi dentiality of Business Information (see 40 CFR 2; 41 FR 36902, September 1, 1976; amended b y 43 FR 40000, September 8, 1978; 43 FR 42251, September 20, 1978; 44 FR 17674, March 23, 1979). **3(g) Sensitive Questions**
The reporting or recordkeeping requirements in the standard do not include sensitive questions. **4. The Respondents and the Information Requested 4(a) Respondents/SIC Codes**  The respondents to the recordkeeping and reporting requirements are OSWI units . The United States Standard Industrial Classification ( SI C ) code s and the corresponding North American Industry

Classification Sy stem (NAICS) codes for the respondents affected b y the standards are listed below.6

**Respondent Activities** Read instructions. Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate continuous emission monitoring systems (CEMS) for carbon monoxide and oxygen. Perform initial performance test, Reference Method 1, 3A, 3B, and 26A test s , and repeat performance tests if necessary

. Write the notifications and reports listed above. Enter information required to be recorded above. Submit the required reports developing, acquiring, installing, and utilizing technology and sy stems for the purpose of collecting, validating, and verifying information. Develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and sy stems for the purpose of processing and maintaining info rmation. Develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and sy stems for the purpose of disclosing and providing information. Train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information. Transmit, or otherwise disclose the information.

**5. The Information Collected: Agency Activities, Collection Methodology, and Information Management**  **5(a) Agency Activities** EPA conducts the following activities in connection with the acquisition, analy sis, storage, and distribution of the required information.9 **Agency Activities** Review notifications and reports, including performance test reports, and excess emissions reports, required to be submitted by industry

. Audit facility

records. Input, anal yz e, and maintain data in Integrated Compliance Information System (I CI S) and ECHO. **5(b) Collection Methodology and Management** Following notification of startup, the reviewing authority could inspect the source to determine whether the pollution control devices are properl y in stalled and operated. Performance test reports are used b y the Agency to discern a source ’ s initial capability to comp ly

with the emission standard. Data and records maintained by the respondents are tabulated and published for use in compliance and enforc ement programs. The semiannual reports are used for problem identification, as a check on source operation and maintenance, and for compliance determinations.
In formation contained in the reports is reported b y state and local governments in the IC IS Air database which is operated and maintained by EPA's Office of Compliance. IC IS is EPA ’ s database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance data for industrial and government

- owned facilities. EPA uses IC IS for tracking air pollution co mpliance and enforcement b y local and state regulatory agencies, EPA regional offices and EPA headquarters. EPA and its delegated Authorities can edit, store, retrieve and analyze the data. The records required b y this regulation must be retained by the owner/operator for five ye ars. **5(c) Small Entity Flexibility** There are no small entities affected b y this regulation. **5(d) Collection Schedule** The specific frequency

for each information collection activity within this request is shown in below Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Other Solid Waste In cineration Units (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart EEEE)(Renewal)

. **6. Estimating the Bu rden and Cost of the Collection**  Table 1 documents the computation of individual burdens for the recordkeeping and reporting requirements applicable to the industry for the subpart included in this I CR. The10

individual burdens are expressed under standardized headings believed to be consistent with the concept of burden under the Pa perwork Reduction Act. Where appropriate, specific tasks and major ass umptions have been identified. Responses to this information collection are mandatory

. The 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. **6(a) Estimating Respondent Burden** The average annual burden to industry over the next three year s from these recordkeeping and reporting requirement s is estimated to be zero ( Total Labor Hours from Table 1). These hours are based on Agency studies and background documents from the development of the regulation, Agency

knowledge and experience with the NSPS program, the previously approved ICR, and any comments received. **6(b) Estimating Respondent Costs (i) Estimating Labor Costs**  This I CR uses the following labor rates: Managerial $ 129

. 93 ($ 61.87 + 110%) Technical $ 103

. 97 ($ 49.51 + 110%) Clerical $ 5 1

. 79 ($2 4

. 66 + 110%) These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2014 , “ Table 2. Civilian Workers, by occupational and industry group. ” The rates are from column 1, “ Total compensation. ” The rates have been increased b y 110 percent to account for the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry

. **(ii) Estimating Capital/Startup and Operation and Maintenance Costs** The ty pe of industry

costs associated with the information collection acti vities in the subject standard are both labor costs which are addressed elsewhere in this ICR and the costs associated with continuous monitoring. Th e capital/startup costs are one

- time costs when a facility becomes subject to the regulation. The annual operation and maintenance costs are the ongoing costs to maintain the monitor and other costs su ch as photocopying and postage.

This is the total of column G. The average annual cost for capital/startup and operation and maintenance costs to industry over the next three years of the IC R is estimated to be zero because there are no respondents subject to this standard

. These are recordkeeping costs

. **6(c) Estimating Agency Burden and Cost** The only costs to the Agency

are those costs associated with anal ys is of the reported information. EPA's overall complianc e and enforcement program i ncludes activities such as the examination of records maint ained by the respondents, periodic inspection of sources of emissions, and the publication and distribution of collected information. The average annual Agency cost during the three years of the ICR is estimated to be zero
. This cost is based on the average hourl y labor rate as follows: Managerial $ 6 2. 90 (GS

- 13, Step 5, $ 3 9.31 + 60% ) Technical $ 4 6

. 67 (GS

- 12, Step 1, $ 2 9

. 17 + 60% ) Clerical $2 5. 25 (GS

- 6, Step 3, $ 15. 78 + 60% ) These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) , 20 1 4 General Schedule , which excludes locality

rates of pay

. The rates have been increased by 60 percent to account for the benefit packages available to government employees. Details upon which this estimate is based appear below in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Other Solid Waste Incineration Units (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart EEEE)(Renewal). **6(d) Estimating the Respondent Universe and Total Burden and Costs**12

Based on our research for this I CR, no respondent will be subject to this standard in the next three years . It is estimated that no additional respondents per ye ar will become subject. The overall average number of respondents, as shown in the table below, is zero per year. The number of respondents is calculated using the following table that addresses the three ye ars covered b y this ICR. **Number of Respondents**

Respondents That Submit Reports Respondents That Do Not Submit Any Reports

- counting respondents

. As shown above, the average Number of Respondents over the three ye ar period of this ICR is zero
. The total number of annual responses per ye ar is calculated using the following table:13
**Total Annual Responses**  (A) Information Collection Activity (B) Number of Respondents (C)

The total annual labor costs are zero
. Details regarding these estimates may be found below in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Other Solid Waste In cineration Units (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart EEEE)(Renewal)

. **6(e) Bottom Line Burden Hours and Cost Tables** The detailed bottom line burden hours and cost calculations for the respondents and the Agency are shown in Tables 1 and 2 below , respectively , and summarized below. **(i) Respondent Tally**  The total annual labor hours are zero
. Details regarding these estimates may be found in Table 1. Annual Respondent Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Other Solid Waste Incineration Units (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart EEEE)(Renewal)

. We assume that burdens for managerial tasks take 5% of the time required for technical tasks because the ty pical tasks for managers are to review and approve reports. Clerical burdens are assumed to take 10% of the time required for technical tasks because the ty

pical duties of clerical staff are to proofread the reports, make copies and maintain records. Furthermore, the annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average zero hours per response

. The total annual capital/startup and O&M costs to the regulated entity are zero
. The cost calculations are detailed in Section 6(b)(iii), Capital/Startup vs. Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Costs.14
**(ii) The Agency Tally** The average annual Agency burden and cost over next three years is estimated to be zero labor hours at a cost of $0 . See Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Other Solid Waste Incineration Units (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart EEEE)(Renewal)

. We assume that burdens for managerial tasks take 5% of the time required for technical tasks because the ty pical tasks for managers are to review and approve reports. Clerical burdens are assumed to take 10% of the time required for technical tasks becaus e the ty pical duties of clerical staff are to proofread the reports, make copies and maintain records. **6(f) Reasons for Change in Burden** There is no change in the labor hours or cost in this I CR compared to the previous I CR. At present, there are no OSWIunits subject to the regulations, and no new units are expected to be constructed or operated over the next three ye ars. It is assumed that potential respondents would use alternative methods of waste disposal that are more e conomical, e.g. landfills, rather than replacing existing OSWIunits. As a result, no respondent or agency burdens or costs have been estimated, and no annual burden is expected. **6(g) Burden Statement** The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average zero hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended b y persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal a gency . This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and s ys tems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing way s to compl y with any previously

applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of informati on; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. An agency

may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB Control Number. The OMB Control Numbers for EPA regulatio ns are listed at 40 CFR Part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter 15.
