    Abstract: Owners and operators of affected facilities are required 
to comply with reporting and record-keeping requirements for the 
general provisions of 40 CFR part 60, subpart A, as well as for the 
specific requirements at 40 CFR part 60, subpart Y. This includes 
submitting initial notification reports, performance tests and periodic 
reports and results, and maintaining 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 reports are used by EPA to determine compliance 
with the standards.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Coal preparation and processing 
facilities.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart Y).
    Estimated number of respondents: 1,037 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 42,300 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $4,320,000 (per year), including $65,600 in 
annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the 
respondent labor hours due to a change in assumption. In this ICR, we 
assume all existing sources will take some time each year to re-
familiarize themselves with the regulatory requirements.
    In addition, there is a decrease in cost and number of responses 
due to a reduction in the estimated number of sources subject to the 
regulation. The previous ICR estimated that five new sources per year 
will be constructed such that they will become subject to the 
regulation. In consultation with

[[Page 13366]]

OAQPS for the renewal of this ICR, we believe there will not be any net 
growth over the next three years. As such, no sources will incur burden 
associated with initial notifications and performance testing. This 
results in a decrease in capital cost and number of responses.

Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division.
