Title: NESHAP for Primary Lead 

Smelters (Renewal). 

Abstract: The National Emission 

Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants 

(NESHAP) for Primary Lead Smelters, 

published at 40 CFR part 63, subpart 

TTT, were proposed on April 17, 1998 

(63 FR 19200), and promulgated on June 

4, 1999 (64 FR 30204). On February 12, 

1999, the Agency publicized a 

supplemental rulemaking for 

ferroalloys, mineral wool, primary 

copper, primary lead and wool 

fiberglass. The supplemental for this 

rule enhances the requirements of the 

bag leak detection systems in 40 CFR 

63.1625 and 40 CFR 63.1655 of the 

proposed rule to include an enforceable 

operating limit. This rule applies to 

emissions sources (i.e., sinter machine, 

blast furnace, dross furnace, process 

fugitive, and fugitive dust sources) from 

primary lead smelters. 

The monitoring, recordkeeping, and 

reporting requirements outlined in the 

rule are similar to those required for 

other NESHAP regulations. Plants must 

demonstrate compliance with the 

emission standards by monitoring their 

control devices and performing annual 

emissions testing. Consistent with the 

NESHAP General Provisions (40 CFR 

part 63, subpart A), all sources subject 

to this standard are required to submit 

one-time notifications of applicability; a 

one-time report on performance test 

results for the primary emission control 

device; an initial report specifying the 

intended methods of compliance; 

standard operating procedure manuals 

for baghouses and fugitive dust control; 

and a semiannual report that includes a 

summary of the monitoring results, any 

baghouse leak detection system alarms 

and corrective actions. Sources must 

also maintain records of production for 

unrefined lead, copper matte, and 

copper speiss; the date and times of bag 

leak detection system alarms and the 

corrective action taken; baghouse 

inspection and maintenance; any 

records required as part of the source 

standard operating procedures manuals; 

and the compliance methods chosen. 

Records shall be maintained for a period 

of five years. Records of the most recent 

two years of operation must be 

maintained onsite. 

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. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 3,048 (rounded) 

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 

Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 210 / Tuesday, November 1, 2005 / Notices 65893 

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: 

Emissions sources from primary lead 

smelters (i.e., sinter machine, blast 

furnace, dross furnace, process fugitive, 

and fugitive dust sources). 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 2. 

Frequency of Response: Initial, 

annual, semiannual and on occasion. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

12,190 hours. 

Estimated Total Annual Costs: 

$1,003,083, which includes $0 

annualized capital/startup costs, 

$19,000 annual O&M costs, and 

$984,083 annual labor costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease of 83 hours in the total 

estimated burden currently identified in 

the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR 

Burdens. This decrease in labor burden 

to industry from the most recently 

approved ICR is due to the assumptions 

that both existing respondents have 

complied with the initial requirements 

of the rule and that there will be no new 

growth in this industry sector. 

The total annualized capital and 

operations and maintenance costs 

decreased from $36,000 to $19,000 due 

to a lack of capital/startup costs 

associated with new sources purchasing 

continuous emission monitoring 

equipment. The operation and 

maintenance costs for the monitoring 

equipment at existing sources are 

anticipated to continue over the next 

three years. 

Although there was an increase in the 

labor rates for both industry and the 

Federal government, it did not offset the 

reduction in labor burden associated 

due to the assumptions stated above. 

Dated: October 24, 2005.

Director, Collection Strategies Division.
