Title: NSPS for Polymeric Coating of 

Supporting Substrates Facilities (40 CFR 

part 60, subpart VVV) (Renewal). 

Abstract: New Source Performance 

Standards (NSPS) subpart VVV applies 

to each coating operation and any onsite 

mix preparation equipment used to 

prepare coating for the polymeric 

coating of supporting substrates, that 

commences construction, modification 

or reconstruction after April 30, 1987. 

The rule establishes standards for 

volatile organic compound (VOC) use, 

emission reduction limits, and for 

capture and recovery of VOC emissions. 

The monitoring and recordkeeping 

requirements include: maintain records 

of startups, shutdowns, malfunctions, 

periods where the continuous 

monitoring system is inoperative 

60.7(b), and of all measurements 

including performance test 

measurements, operating parameters of 

monitoring device results for catalytic or 

thermal incinerator, carbon adsorption 

system, condensation system, vapor 

capture system and/or total enclosure 

60.744(c–h); and monitor actual 12-

month volatile organic compounds 

(VOC) use and make semiannual 

estimate of projected VOC use, if 

affected facility uses less than 95 Mg/

year of VOC or is subject to provisions 

specified in § 60.742(c)(3) and other 

information required by this part 

recorded in a file suitable for inspection. 

The recordkeeping, monitoring and 

reporting requirements allow the 

regulatory agencies to determine 

compliance with the standard. One-time 

reports are required to identify the 

affected facilities and the compliance 

method used. Semiannual reports of 

compliance and quarterly reports of 

monitoring exceedances and periods of 

noncompliance are used to verify 

compliance. Annual reports of when an 

affected facility first exceeds a projected 

VOC use limit or the 12-month actual 

VOC limit are used to determine the 

applicable requirements. Since none of 

the required reports to the Agency have 

been deemed confidential business 

information, they will not be treated as 

such. Responses are mandatory (40 CFR 

part 60, subpart VVV). 

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 and 48 CFR chapter 15, 

and are identified on the form and/or 

instrument, if applicable. The 

recordkeeping, notification and 

reporting requirements of the standard 

are critically important as they allow the 

Agency to determine to which facilities 

the standards apply and they enable the 

Agency to monitor initial and ongoing 

compliance with the standards. As 

much as possible, in order to reduce the 

burden, the compliance monitoring and 

recordkeeping requirements are 

designed to cover parameters that are 

already being monitored as part of the 

manufacturing process. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 83 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; 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 facilities 

performing polymeric coating of 

supporting substrates. 

Estimated Number of Respondents:

53. 

Frequency of Response: Initial, on 

occasion, quarterly, semiannually, 

monthly, annually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:

12,623 hours. 

Estimated Total Annual Costs:

$1,410,367, which includes $48,500 

annualized capital/startup costs, 

$556,500 annual O&M costs, and 

$805,367 annual labor costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease of 1,743 hours in the total 

estimated burden currently identified in 

the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR 

Burdens. This decrease is due to a 

reduction in the estimate of shutdowns 

and malfunctions occurring annually, a 

correction in the number of reported 

respondents, and a recalculation of 

burden resulting from reporting 

activities.

Title: Facility Ground-Water 

Monitoring Requirements (Renewal). 

Abstract: This ICR examines the 

ground-water monitoring standards for 

permitted and interim status facilities at 

40 CFR parts 264 and 265, as specified. 

The ground-water monitoring 

requirements for regulated units follow 

a tiered approach whereby releases of 

hazardous contaminants are first 

detected (detection monitoring), then 

confirmed (compliance monitoring), and 

if necessary, are required to be cleaned 

up (corrective action). Each of these 

tiers requires collection and analysis of 

ground-water samples. Owners or 

operators that conduct ground-water 

monitoring are required to report 

information to the oversight agencies on 

releases of contaminants and to 

maintain records of ground-water 

monitoring data at their facilities. The 

goal of the ground-water monitoring 

program is to prevent and quickly detect 

releases of hazardous contaminants to 

groundwater, and to establish a program 

whereby any contamination is 

expeditiously cleaned up as necessary 

to protect human health and 

environment. Subtitle C of the Resource 

Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 

(RCRA) creates a comprehensive 

program for the safe management of 

hazardous waste. Section 3004 of RCRA 

requires owners and operators of 

facilities that treat, store, or dispose of 

hazardous waste to comply with 

standards established by EPA that are to 

protect the environment. Section 3005 

provides for implementation of these 

standards under permits issued to 

owners and operators by EPA or 

authorized States. Section 3005 also 

allows owners and operators of facilities 

in existence when the regulations came 

into effect to comply with applicable 

notice requirements to operate until a 

permit is issued or denied. This 

statutory authorization to operate prior 

to permit determination is commonly 

known as ‘‘interim status.’’ Owners and 

operators of interim status facilities also 

must comply with standards set under 

section 3004. 

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 in 40 

CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and are 

identified on the form and/or 

instrument, if applicable. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 118 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; 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:

Entities that operate surface 

impoundments, waste piles, land 

treatment units, and landfills which 

manage hazardous waste regulated 

under RCRA. 

Estimated Number of Respondents:

824. 

Frequency of Response: Quarterly. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:

96,913. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost:

$24,015,000, which includes $3,000 

annual capital/startup costs, 

$18,070,000 annual O&M costs and 

$5,942,000 annual labor costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is no 

increase of hours in the total estimated 

burden currently identified in the OMB 

Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. 

There is a slight increase in cost due to 

inflation.
