Sources also must develop and implement a startup, shutdown, and malfunction plan (SSMP) and submit semiannual reports of any event where the procedures in the plan were not followed. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all sources subject to NSPS.

Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Owners and operators of basic oxygen process furnaces at iron and steel plants.

Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart N and Na).

Estimated number of respondents: 18 (total).

Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.

Total estimated burden: 6,263 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).

e.g. , permitting electronic submission of responses. EPA will consider the comments received and amend the ICR as appropriate. The final ICR package will then be submitted to OMB for review and approval. At that time, EPA will issue another Federal Register notice to announce the submission of the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to submit additional comments to OMB.

Abstract: In 2002, EPA launched two new partnership programs with industry and other stakeholders: The Green Power Partnership (GPP) and the Combined Heat and Power Partnership (CHPP). These voluntary partnership programs encourage organizations to invest in clean, efficient energy technologies, including renewable energy and combined heat and power. To continue to be successful, it is critical that EPA collect information from GPP and CHPP Partners to ensure these organizations are meeting their renewable energy and CHP goals and to assure the credibility of these voluntary partnership programs.

EPA has developed this ICR to obtain authorization to collect information from organizations participating in the GPP and CHPP. Organizations that join these programs voluntarily agree to the following respective actions: (1) Designating a Green Power or CHP liaison and filling out a Partnership Agreement or Letter of Intent (LOI) respectively, (2) for the GPP, reporting to EPA, on an annual basis, their progress toward their green power commitment via a 3-page reporting form; (3) for the CHP Partnership, reporting to EPA information on their existing CHP projects, new project development, and other CHP-related activities via a one-page reporting form (for projects) or via an informal email or phone call (for other CHP-related activities). EPA uses the data obtained from its Partners to assess the success of these programs in achieving their national energy and greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction goals. Partners are organizational entities that have volunteered to participate in either Partnership program.

Form Numbers: EPA–430–K–013, EPA–430–F–05–034.

Respondents/affected entities: Respondent’s obligation to respond: Voluntary.

Estimated number of respondents: 2,565.

Frequency of response: Annually, on Occasion, One time.

Total estimated burden: 8,191 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).

Total estimated cost: $706,709 (per year), includes $7,478 annualized capital or operation & maintenance
costs.

Changes in Estimates: There is an increase of 2,368 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. The average number of hours per Partners remained the same at 3.2 hours, pending a partner survey to determine the results of these efficiencies. The total hourly burden increased because due to an increase in the number of Partners. For perspective on the magnitude of partner growth, the number of Partners at the end of 2011 was 1,308, and at the end of 2014 there is was 2,041.

The total cost estimate (including both Respondents and Agency burden) over the 3 year period for this renewal ICR is $2,805,913, or an average of $935,304 per year, of which $7,749 is O&M costs. The total cost to GPP and CHP Partners is $2,120,126, or $706,709 per year. The total cost estimate increase for Partners is due to an increase in the number of Partners and increases in
wages.
