**SUPPORTING STATEMENT ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY**  **NESHAP for Metal Furniture Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart RRRR) (Renewal)**  **1. Identification of the Information Collection 1(a) Title of the Information Collection**  NESHAP for Metal Furniture Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart RRRR) (Renewal), EPA I CR Number 1952.06, OMB Control Number 2060

- 0518. **1(b) Short Characterization/Abstract** The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Metal Furniture Surface Coating were proposed on April 24, 2002 , promulgated on May 23, 2003 , and most

- recentl y amended on April 20, 2006

. These regulations appl y to existing facilities and new facilities that perform metal furniture surface coating operations where the total Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs) emitted are greater than or equal to 10 tons per year of any one HAP , or where the total HAPs emitted are greater than or equal to 25 tons per year of any combination of HAPs. New facilities include those th at commenced construction, or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart RRRR

. In general, all NESHAP 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 monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NESHAP. Any owner/operator subject to the 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 dele gated authority , the reports are sent directl y to the U

. S

. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regional office. The “burden ” to the “Affected Public” may be found below in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost

– NESHAP for Metal Furniture Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart RRRR) (Renewal)

. The Federal Government ’s “burden ” is attributed entirel y to work performed b y either F ederal employees or government contractors and may be found below in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost

– NESHAP for Metal Furniture Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart RRRR) (Renewal)

. Based on our consultations with industry representatives, there is an average of one affected facilities at each plant site and that each plant site has only one respondent (i.e., the2

owner/operator of the plant site). Over the n ext three years, approximately 583 respondents per ye ar will be subject to the standard , and no additional resp ondents per year will become subject to the standard. The Office of Management and Budget ( OMB ) approved the currentl y active ICR without any “ Terms of Clearance. ”
**2. Need for and Use of the Collection 2(a) Need/Authority for the Collection**  The EPA is charged under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act, as amended, to establish standards of performance for each category or subcategory

of major sources and area sources of hazardous air pollutants. These standards are applicable to new or existing sources of hazardous air pollutants and shall require the maximum degree of emission reduction

. Inaddition, 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 monitoring 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 acc ordance with Section 114(a)(3); and (G) provide such other information as the Administrator may reasonabl y require. In the Administrator's judgment, HAP emissions from furniture surface coating facilities either cause or contribute to air pollution that m ay reasonabl y be anticipated to endanger public health and/or welfare. Therefore, the NESHAP were promulgated for this source category at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart RRRR

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

with the emission standard s . Continuous emission monitors are used to ensure compliance with the se same standard s at all times. During the performance test a record3

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 s 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 che ck if the pollution control devices are properl y installed and operated , leaks are being detected and repaired , and the standard s 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 determinatio ns. **3. Non**
**- duplication, Consultations, and Other Collection Criteria**  The requested recordkeeping and reporting are required under 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart RRRR

. **3(a) Non**
**- duplication**  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, duplication does not exist. **3(b) Pub lic 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 ( 80 FR 32116 ) on June 5, 2015 . 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 growth over the next three years have been considered. The primary

source of information as reported by industry , in compliance with the recordkeeping and reporting provisions in the standard, is the Integrated Compliance Information Sy stem (I CI S). IC IS is EPA’s database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance data for industrial and government

- owned facilities. 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 associated with the standard s as they were being developed. In4

developing this ICR, we contacted both the American Home Furnishing Alliance , at (336) 884

- 5000 , and the American Coatings Association , at (202) 719

- 3689. 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. **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 gathering 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 maintenance of control equipment and the possibility

of detecting violations would be less likel y. **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 requirement is consistent with the Part 70 permit program and the five

- ye ar statute o f 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 - compliance and to determine the appropriate level of enforcement action. EPA has fo und 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 submitte d 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 Business Information (CBI) (see 40 CFR 2; 41 FR 36902, September 1, 1976; amended by 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.

**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, analysis, storage, and distribution of the required information. **Agency Activities**8 **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 Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO) and I CI 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 s and note the operating conditions under which compliance was achi eved. 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 maintenance, and for complianc e 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 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 five ye ars. **5(c) Small Entity Flexibility** A majority

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 recordk eeping 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 larg er businesses can use economies of scale to reduce their burden, the overall burden will be reduced

. According to the Background Information for the NESHAP for Metal Furniture Surface Coating 1 , 42 percent of the parent companies affected by proposed action were estimated to be small entities as defined by the Small Business Administration. The

- 0109

Agency assumes that 42 per cent of the 583 facilities affected by this ICR, or 245 facilities, are small entities. **5(d) Collection Schedule** The specific frequency

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

– NESHAP for Metal Furniture Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart RRRR) (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 under the Paperwork Reduction Act. Where appropriate, specific tasks and major assumptions have been identified. Responses to this information collection are mandatory

. The Agency

may n ot 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 years fro m these recordkeeping and reporting requirement s is estimated to be 190,000 hours ( 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 w ith the NESHAP program , the previousl y approved ICR, and any comments received. **6(b) Estimating Respondent Costs (i) Estimating Labor Costs**  This I CR uses the following labor rates: Managerial $1 2 9

. 93 ($ 61.87 + 110%) Technical $ 10 3

. 97 ($4 9

. 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**10

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 when a facility becomes subject to the re gulation. The annual operation and maintenance costs 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 ye ars of the IC R is estimated to be $ 700,000

. These are the costs of record

- keeping. **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 $ 976,000

. 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

- 6, Step 3, $ 15. 78 + 60% ) These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) , 2015 General Schedule , which excludes locality

rates of pay

. The rates have been increased by 60 percent to account for11

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

– NESHAP for Metal Furniture Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart RRRR) (Renewal)

. **6(d) Estimating the Respondent Universe and Total Burden and Costs** Based on our research for this I CR, on average over the next three ye ars, approximately 583 existing respondents will be subject to the se standard s . 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 583 per year. The number of respondents is calculated using the following table that addresses the three ye ars covered b y thi s ICR : **Number of Respondents**

. The total annual labor costs are $19,100,000

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

– NESHAP for Metal Furniture Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart RRRR) (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 190,000 hours

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

– NESHAP for Metal Furniture Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart RRRR) (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 pi cal 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 109 hours per response

. The total annual capital/startup and O&M costs to the regulated entity are $700,000

. The cost calculations are detailed in Section 6(b)(iii), Capital/Startup vs. Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Costs. **(ii) The Agency Tally**13

The average annual Agency burden and cost over next three years is estimated to be 21,500 labor hours at a cost of $976,000 . See below Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost

– NESHAP for Metal Furniture Surface Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart RRRR) (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. **6(f) Reasons for Change in Burden** There is a small decrease in the respondent labor hours and an increase in the O&M cost from the previou s ICR due to rounding. In this ICR, we have rounded total values to three significant digits. There is a decrease in the total estimated labor costs due to a correction. The previous ICR incorrectl y referenced managerial labor rates when calculating technical labor cost, and vice versa, thereb y overestimating total labor costs. **6(g) Burden Stat ement**  The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 109 hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended b y persons to generate, maintain, retain, o r 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 s ys tems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, proces sing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to compl y with any previously

applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data s ources; complete and review 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 Control Numbers for EPA regulations are listed at 40 CFR Part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter 15.

**Assu mptions:** 

a We have assumed that there are approximately 583 respondents, with no additional new or reconstructed sources becoming subjec t to the rule over the next three years. b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $129.93 per hour for Executive, Administr ative, and Managerial labor; $103.97 per hour for Technical labor, and $51.79 per hour for Clerical labor. These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 20 14 ”Table 2. Civilian Workers, by occupational and industry group.” The rates are from column 1, ”Total compensation.” The rates have been increased by 110 percent to account f or the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry.

c We have assumed that each respondent will take six hours twice per year to complete the semiannual report. d We have assumed that each respondent will take four hours twice per year to complete the excess emissions reports and also fo ur hours twice per year for the SSM reports.
e We have assumed that each respondent will take 0.5 hours 260 times per year to enter information. f We have assumed that each respondent will have to complete task once per month. g Totals have been rounded to 3 significant values. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.17
