    Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for the 
Graphic Arts Industry (40 CFR part 60, subpart QQ) were proposed on 
October 28, 1980, and promulgated on November 8, 1982. The affected 
entities are subject to the General Provisions of the NSPS at 40 CFR 
part 60, subpart A and any changes, or additions to the Provisions 
specified at 40 CFR part 60, subpart QQ.
    Owners or operators of the affected facilities must make an initial 
notification report, performance tests, periodic reports, and 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.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/Affected Entities: Graphic arts facilities.
    Respondent's Obligation to Respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart QQ).
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 20.33 (total).
    Frequency of Response: Initially and semiannually.
    Total Estimated Burden: 1,802 hours (per year). ``Burden'' is 
defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total Estimated Cost: $176,264 (per year), which also includes no 
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase in the total 
estimated respondent burden as currently identified in the OMB 
Inventory of Approved Burdens. The change in burden is due to an 
increase in the number of sources subject to these standards, and is 
not due to any program changes. The number of sources has been 
increased to account for industry growth that has occurred since the 
most-recent ICR was approved.
    Also, there is an increase in the respondent cost from the most 
recently-approved ICR due to the use of updated labor rates. This ICR 
references labor rates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics to calculate 
the respondent burden cost.
    There is a decrease in the total estimated Agency burden as 
compared to the most recently-approved ICR. This change is due to a 
revision in the labor burden estimate for repeat performance testing. 
Due to a discrepancy in the previous ICR, the labor burden for repeat 
performance testing included respondents who passed the initial 
performance test. The revision accounts only for respondents who failed 
the initial performance test resulted in the reduced labor burden 
observed in this ICR. Also, note that the ICR also incorporates updated 
labor rates from OPM.
