    Title: NESHAP for Asphalt Processing and Asphalt Roofing 
Manufacturing (Renewal)
    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 2029.05, OMB Control Number 2060-0520.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on August 31, 2012. 
Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to either conduct or 
sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending 
at OMB.
    Abstract: The affected entities are subject to the General 
Provisions of the NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A, and any changes, 
or additions to the Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, subpart 
LLLLL.
    Owners or operators of the affected facilities must submit initial 
notification, performance tests, and periodic reports and results. 
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. Reports are required semiannually at 
a minimum.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 225 
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: Owners or operators of asphalt 
processing and asphalt roofing manufacturing facilities.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 27.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 13,497.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $1,318,753, which includes $1,293,301 
in labor costs, no capital/startup costs, and $25,452 in operation and 
maintenance (O&M) costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase in costs for both 
the respondents and the Agency from the most recently approved ICR. The 
increase in burden cost is due to an increase in the number of new or 
modified sources and adjustments in labor rates. This ICR uses updated 
labor rates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics to calculate burden 
costs.
    There is an increase of 1,480 hours in labor hours for the 
respondents, as well as an increase of 55 hours in labor hours for the 
Agency, due to the increase in the number of sources that are subject 
to the standard. There may also be some apparent differences that are 
attributable to rounding; this ICR presents more exact figures. There 
is no change in the estimation methodology in this ICR compared to the 
previous ICR.
    There is also an increase of $45.00 in O&M costs to the respondents 
in this ICR as compared to the previous ICR. This is attributed to the 
photocopying and postage costs for an increased number of total sources 
subject to the standard.
