**SUPPORTING STATEMENT ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY**  **NSPS for Glas s Manufacturing Plants (40 CFR Part 60, S**  **ubpart CC) (Renewal) 1. Identification of the Information Collection**  **1(a) Title of the Information Collection** NSPS for Glass Manu facturing Plants (40 CFR Part 60, S ubpart CC) (Renewal), EPA ICR Number 1131.11, OMB Control Number 2060

- 0054

. **1(b) Short Characterization/Abstract** The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Glass Manu facturing Plants were proposed on June 15, 1979, promulgated on October 7, 1980, and amended on both October 19, 1984, and October 17, 2000. These regulations apply to each glass melting furnace located at a glass manufacturing plant

. New facilities include those that commenced constr uction, modification , or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60 , Subpart CC

. 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 affected facility , or any period during which the monitorin g 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 the provisions of this part shall maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at least two 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. Based on our consultations with industry representatives, th ere is an average of one affected facility at each plant site and that each plant site has only one respondent (i.e., the owner/operator of the plant site). Over the next three ye ars, an average of 41 respondents per ye ar will be subject to the standard , and no additional respondents per year will become subject to the standard. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approved the currentl y active I CR without any

“ Terms of Clearance.”
T here are approximately

41 glass manufacturing facilities, which are owned and operated by the glass manuf

acturing industry . None of the 41 facilities in the United States are owned by state , local, tribal or the Federal government. They are all owned and operated by privately

-2

owned, for

- profit businesses.
**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 such standards e very 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 require. In the Administrator's judgment, particulate matter emissions from glass melting furnaces cause or contribute to air pollution that may reasonably

be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare. Therefore , the NSPS were promulgated for this source category at 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart CC

. **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 promul gated in accordance with the Clean Air Act. The collected information is also used for targeting inspections and as evidence in legal proceedings.3

Performance tests are required in order to determine an affected facility ’ s initial capability to comply

wi th the emission standard. Continuous emission monitors are used to ensure compliance with the standard at all times. During the performance test a record 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 notifications 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, leaks are being detected and repaired, and the standard are being met. The performance test may also be observed. The required semiannual reports are used to determine periods of excess emissions, identify problems at the facility , verify operation/maintenance procedures and for compliance determinations. **3. Nonduplication, Consultations, and Other Collection Criteria 3(a) Nonduplication**  If the subject standards have not been delegated, the information is sent 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 report 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 P rior 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

. No comments were received on the burden published in the Federal Register

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

experts have been consulted and the Agency ’s internal data sources and projections of industry and growth over the next three years have been considered. The primary

source of information as reported by industry , in co mpliance with the recordkeeping and reporting provisions in the standard, is the Online Tracking Information Sy stem (OTIS) which is operated and maintained by the EPA Office of Compliance. O TI S is the EPA 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 parties were provided an opportunit y to comment on the burden associated with the standard as it was being developed. In developing this I CR , we4

reviewed information available from the U

. S

. Census Bureau, and websites covering glass manufacturing plants. We also consulted the N ational Glass Association (NGA) at (703) 442

- 4890 and the Glass Manufacturing Industry Council (GMI C) at (614 ) 818

- 9423.
A fter a thorough review , i t is our policy to respond to comments received since the last ICR renewal , as well as to those submitted in response to the first Federal Register notice. In this case, no comments were received. **3(d) Effects of Less Frequent Collection** Less frequent information collection would decrease the margin of assurance that facilities are continuing to meet the standards. Requirements for information g athering and recordkeeping are useful techniques to ensure that good operation and maintenance practices are applied and emission limitations are met. If the information required by these standards was collected less frequentl y, the proper operation and m aintenance of control equipment and the possibility

of detecting violations would be less likely

. **3(e) General Guidelines**
T hese reporting or recordkeeping requirements do not violate any of the regulations promulgated b y OMB under 5 CFR Part 1320, Section 1320.5. **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

- Confidentiality of Busin ess 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**
T he 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 glass melting furnaces . The United States Standard Industrial Classification ( SI C ) code s for the respondents affected b y the standards and the corresponding North American Industry Classification System (NAICS ) codes are listed below

.5

**Standard ( 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart CC**  **) SIC Codes**  **NAICS Codes** Flat Glass Manufacturing 3211 327211 Glass Container Manufacturing 3221 327213 Other Pressed and Blown Glass and Glassware Manufacturing 3229 327212 Mineral Wool Manufacturing 3296 327993 **4(b) Information Requested (i) Data Items** 
In this ICR , all the data that is recorded or reported is required b y the NSPS for Glass Manu facturing Plants (40 CFR Part 60, S ubpart CC)

. A source must make the following reports:

**Notification s**  Notification of construction/reconstruction 60.7(a)(1) Notification of actual startup. 60.7(a)(3) Notification of initial performance test 60.8(d) Initial performance test results 60.8(a) Demonstration of continuous monitoring sy stem (CMS) 60.7(a)(5) Notification of ph ys ical or operational change 60.6(a)(4) Routine maintenance report 60.292(e)(3) Request for alternative CMS 60.293(d) Excess emissions report 60.7(c), 60.293(c)(5) A source must keep the following records:
**Recordkeeping** Startup, shutdown, malfunction periods where the CMS is inoperative 60.7(b) Records are required to be retained for two years 60.7(f) Electronic Reporting Some of the r espondents are using monitoring equipment that automatically records parameter data. Although personnel at the affected facility must still evaluate the data, internal6

automation has significantly reduced the burden associated with monitoring and recordkeeping at a plant site. Also, regulatory

agencies in cooperation with th e respondents continue to create reporting sy stems to transmit data electronically . However, electronic reporting s ys tems are still not widely used. At this time, it is estimated that approximately 10 percent of the respondents use electronic reporting.

**(ii) Respondent Activities**

**Respondent Activities** Read instructions. Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate CMS for opacity , or for pressure drop and liquid supply pressure for control device. Perform initial performance test, Reference Method 5 and 9 test, 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 information. Develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and sy stems for the purpose of disclosing and providing informat ion. Train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information. Transmit, or otherwise disclose the information. Currently sources are using monitoring and reporting equipment that provide parameter data in an automated way e.g., continuous parameter monitoring s ys tem. Although personnel at the source still need to evaluate the data, this type of monitoring equipment has significantly reduced the burden associated with monitoring and recordkeeping. **5. The Information Collected: Agency Activities, Collection Methodology, and Information Management**  **5(a) Agency Activities**7

EPA conducts the following activities in connection with the acquisition, analysis, storage, and distribution of the required information.
**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 the Online Tracking Information Sy stem (OTI S). **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 installed and operated. Performance test reports are used b y the Agency to discern a source’s initial capability to compl y with the emission standard and note the operating conditions under whi ch compliance was achieved. Data and records maintained by the respondents are tabulated and published for use in compliance and enforcement programs. The semiannual reports are used for problem identification, as a check on source operation and maintena nce, and for compliance determinations.
In formation contained in the reports is entered into OTI S which is operated and maintained by

EPA's Office of Compliance. OTIS is EPA’s database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance data for approximately 125,000 industrial and government

- owned facilities. EPA uses the OTI S for tracking air pollution compliance and enforcement b y local and state regulatory agencies, EPA regional offices and EPA headquarters. EPA and its delegated Authoritie s can edit, store, retrieve and analyze the data. The records required b y this regulation must be retained by the owner/operator for two ye ars. **5(c) Small Entity Flexibility** All of the respondents are large entities (i.e., large businesses). However, the impact on small entities (i.e., small businesses) was taken into consideration during the development of the regulation. Due to technical considerations involving the process operations and the ty pes of control equipment employed, the recordkeeping and reporting requirements are the same for both small and large entities. The Agency considers these to be the minimum requirements needed to ensure compliance and, therefore, cannot reduce them further for small entities. To the extent that larger businesses can use economies of scale to reduce their burden, the overall burden will be reduced.8

**5(d) Collection Schedule** The specific frequency

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

– NSPS for Glass Manufacturing Plants (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart CC) (Renewal)

. **6. Estimating the Burden 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. The individual burdens are expressed under standardized headings believed to be consistent with the concept of burden unde r the Paperwork Reduction Act. Where appropriate, specific tasks and major assumptions have been identified. Responses to this information collection are mandatory

. **6(a) Estimating Respondent Burden** The average annual burden to industry over the next three years from these recordkeeping and reporting requirement s is estimated to be 803 ( Total Labor Hours from Table 1). T hese hours are based on Agency studies and background documents from the development of the regulation, Agency

knowledge and experie nce with the NSPS program, the previously approved ICR, and an y comments received. **6(b) Estimating Respondent Costs (i) Estimating Labor Costs**  This I CR uses the following labor rates: Managerial $1 2 8

. 0 2 ($ 60.98 + 110%) Technical $ 10 1

. 05 ($4 8

. 12 + 110%) Clerical $ 5 1

. 37 ($2 4

. 46 + 110%) These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, March 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 activities in the subject standard are both labor costs , which are addressed elsewhere in this ICR , and the costs associated with continuous monitoring. The capital/startup costs are one - time costs incurred when a facility

becomes s ubject to the regulation. The annual operation and maintenance costs9

are the ongoing costs to maintain the monitor and other costs such 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 $ 237,800

. **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 compliance and enforcement program includes 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 $ 19,366

. This cost is based on the average hourl y labor rat e as follows: Managerial $ 6 2. 90 (GS

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

. 67 (GS

– NSPS for Glass Manufacturing Plants (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart CC) (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 , respectivel y, and summarized below. **(i) Respondent Tally** The total annual labor hours are 803

. Details regarding these estimates may be found in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Glass Manufa cturing Plants (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart CC) (Renewal)

. Furthermore, the annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 8 hours per response

. The total annual capital/startup and O& M costs to the regulated entity are $237,800

. The cost calculations are detailed in Section 6(b)(iii), Capital/Startup vs. Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Costs. **(ii) The Agency Tally** The average annual Agency burden and cost over next three years is es timated to be 426 labor hours at a cost of $19,366 . See Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost

– NSPS for Glass Manufacturing Plants (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart CC) (Renewal)

.12

**6(f) Reasons for Change in Burden** There is no change in labor hours in this I CR compared to the previous I CR. The increase in respondent and Agency burden costs is due to an adjustment in labor rates and corrections to rounding differences in the burden calculations

. The labor rates have been updated to reflect the most recent labor rates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and OPM

. The rounding differences in the most recentl y approved I CR have been corrected in the Industry burden calculations. **6(g) Burden Statement** The annual pub lic reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 8 hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended b y persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide i nformation to or for a Federal agency. 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 in formation, 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 re view the collection of information; 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 C ontrol Numbers for EPA regulations are listed at 40 CFR Part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter 15.
