Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 97 / Monday, May 20, 2013 / Notices 29367 

issued, is to grant the permit holder 

priority to file a license application 

during the permit term. A preliminary 

permit does not authorize the permit 

holder to perform any land-disturbing 

activities or otherwise enter upon lands 

or waters owned by others without the 

owners’ express permission. 

The proposed project would consist of 

two river drop developments. Each of 

the proposed in-stream installations 

would consist of the following: (1) A 40- 

foot-wide concrete diversion canal 

approximately 150 feet in length; (2) 

two VLH 4000 turbo-generators; (3) a 10- 

by-10-foot electrical shack; and (4) 

appurtenant facilities. The proposed 

project would have a total installed 

capacity of 2 megawatts and generate an 

estimated average annual energy 

production of 14 gigawatt-hours.

Title: NSPS for Nitric Acid Plants 

(Renewal). 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 

1056.11, OMB Control Number 2060– 

0019. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on June 30, 2013. 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 

NSPS at 40 CFR part 60, subpart A, and 

any changes, or additions to the 

Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 60, 

subparts G and Ga. Owners or operators 

of the affected facilities must submit an 

initial notification report, 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 36 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 nitric acid 

plants. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

26. 

Frequency of Response: Initially, 

occasionally, and semiannually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

1,921. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$2,805,032, which includes $186,049 in 

labor costs, $162,612 in capital/startup 

costs, and $2,456,371 in operation and 

maintenance (O&M) costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase in burden from the most 

recently-approved ICR. The increase is 

due to a program change associated with 

the promulgation of a new standard at 

40 CFR part 60, subpart Ga, which 

affects new nitric acid production units 

that are constructed, reconstructed, or 

modified on or after October 14, 2011. 

The previous ICR reflected burden 

associated with subpart G only, while 

this ICR combines the burden for both 

subpart G and subpart Ga. This results 

in an increase in overall burden for both 

the respondents and the Agency.

Director, Collection Strategies Division.
