# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

This is a proposed extension of the ICR, which is currently approved through February 28, 2025. An agency may not conduct or sponsor and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.

                    Public comments were previously requested via the                     **Federal Register**                     on May 18, 2023 during a 60-day comment period (88 FR 31748). This notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments. Supporting documents, which explain in detail the information that the EPA will be collecting, are available in the public docket for this ICR. The docket can be viewed online at                     *www.regulations.gov*                     or in person at the EPA Docket Center, WJC West, Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave. NW, Washington, DC. The telephone number for the Docket Center is 202-566-1744. For additional information about EPA's public docket, visit                     *http://www.epa.gov/​dockets.*

*Abstract:*                     The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for the regulations published at 40 CFR part 61, subpart D were proposed on December 7, 1971, promulgated on April 6, 1973 (38 FR 8826) and amended on both October 17, 2000 (65 FR 62151) and February 27, 2014 (79 FR 11275). These regulations apply to existing and new buildings, structures facilities, or installations where the static test firing of a beryllium rocket motor and/or the disposal of beryllium propellant is conducted. New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 61, subpart D.                

                    In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected                           ( print page 5879)                        facilities. They 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. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NESHAP.                

*Form Numbers:*                     None.                

*Respondents/affected entities:*                     Beryllium rocket motor fuel firing test sites.                

*Respondent's obligation to respond:*                     Mandatory (40 CFR part 61, subpart D).                

*Estimated number of respondents:*                     One (total).                

*Frequency of response:*                     Initially, monthly.                

*Total estimated burden:*                     Nine hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).                

*Total estimated cost:*                     $1,450 (per year). There are no annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.                

*Changes in the Estimates:*                     There is no change in burden from the most recently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This is due to two considerations. First, the regulations have not changed over the past three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three years. Second, the growth rate for this industry is very low or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden. Since there are no changes in the regulatory requirements and there is no significant industry growth, there are also no changes in the capital/startup or operation and maintenance (O&M) costs.
