SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Title: NESHAP subparts F, G, H, and

I, the Hazardous Organic NESHAP

(HON), OMB number 2060–0282,

expires April 30, 2001. This is a request

for an extension of a currently approved

collection.

Abstract: This ICR contains

recordkeeping and reporting

requirements that are mandatory for

compliance with 40 CFR 63.100, 63.110,

63.160, and 63.190; subparts F, G, H,

and I, respectively, hazardous air

pollutant emissions from process vents,

storage vessels, transfer racks,

wastewater and equipment leaks. This

information is used by the Agency to

identify sources subject to the standards

and to insure that the maximum

achievable control is being properly

applied. The standards require periodic

recordkeeping to document process

information relating to the source’s

ability to comply with the standards.

Respondents are owners or operators of

processes in SOCMI industries, styrenebutadiene rubber production,

polybutadiene production, chloride

production, pesticide production,

chlorinated hydrocarbon use in

production of chemicals,

pharmaceutical production, and

miscellaneous butadiene use.

Section 112 of the Clean Air Act, as

amended in 1990, requires that EPA

establish standards to limit emissions of

hazardous air pollutants (HAP’s) from

stationary sources. The sources subject

to the proposed rule can potentially

emit 149 of the 189 HAP’s listed in

section 112. In the Administrator’s

judgment, hazardous air pollutant

(HAP) emissions in the synthetic

organic chemical industry and other

negotiated industries cause or

contribute to air pollution that may

reasonably be anticipated to endanger

public health or welfare. Therefore,

NESHAPs have been promulgated for

this source category as required under

section 112 of the Clean Air Act.

Owners or operators of the CMPU’s

described must make the following onetime-only reports. These notifications,

reports and records are required, in

general, of all sources subject to the

MACT standards. Notification of the

start date of construction or

reconstruction; notification of the

anticipated and actual dates of startup;

notification of any physical or

operational change to an existing

facility. In addition, subpart G requires

respondents to submit five types of

reports: (1) Initial Notification, (2)

Implementation Plan, (3) Notification of

Compliance Status, (4) Periodic Reports,

and (5) several event triggered reports.

The collection of this information is

mandatory under section 114 of the

CAA.

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. The OMB control

numbers for EPA’s regulations are listed

in 40 CFR part 9. The Federal Register

document required under 5 CFR

1320.8(d), soliciting comments on this

ICR was published on February 1, 2001

(66 FR 8588); no comments were

received.

Burden Statement: The annual public

reporting and recordkeeping burden for

this collection of information is

estimated to average 4,760 hours per

response for existing sources and 9,296

hours per response for new sources.

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 use 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; 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:

Synthetic Organic Chemical

Manufacturing Industry

Estimated Number of Responses: 490.

Frequency of Response: Episodic,

Quarterly and Semi-annually.

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:

1,343,755 hours.

Estimated Total Annualized Capital,

O&M Cost Burden: $67,398,725.

Send comments on the Agency’s need

for this information, the accuracy of the

provided burden estimates, and any

suggested methods for minimizing

respondent burden, including through

the use of automated collection

techniques to the following addresses.

Please refer to ICR No. 1414.04 and

OMB control number 2060–0282 in any

correspondence.
