Title: NESHAP for Carbon Black, 

Ethylene, Cyanide, and Spandex 

(Renewal). 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 

1983.05, OMB Control Number 2060– 

0489. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on November 30, 2008. Under 

OMB regulations, the Agency may 

continue to conduct or sponsor the 

collection of information while this 

submission is pending at OMB. 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 title 40 of the CFR, 

after appearing in the Federal Register 

when approved, are listed in 40 CFR 

part 9, and displayed either by 

publication in the Federal Register or 

by other appropriate means, such as on 

the related collection instrument or 

form, if applicable. The display of OMB 

control numbers in certain EPA 

regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR 

part 9. 

Abstract: All existing sources must be 

in compliance with the requirements of 

the Generic Maximum Achievable 

Control Technology (MACT) National 

Emissions Standard for Hazardous Air 

Pollutants (NESHAP) within three years 

of the effective date (promulgation date) 

of standards for an affected source. All 

new sources must be in compliance 

with the requirements of the Generic 

MACT (GMACT) NESHAP upon startup 

or prior to the promulgation date of 

standards for an affected source, 

whichever is later. These standards 

apply to hazardous air pollutant (HAP) 

emission sources in the carbon black 

production, cyanide chemicals 

manufacturing, ethylene production, 

and spandex production source 

categories. 

Compliance is assumed through 

initial performance testing or design 

analysis, as appropriate, and ongoing 

compliance is demonstrated through 

parametric monitoring. The facilities are 

subject to the major source provisions 

specified under the GMACT NESHAP. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 90 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: 

Facilities that manufacture carbon 

black, cyanide chemicals, ethylene, and 

spandex. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

72. 

Frequency of Response: Occasionally, 

semiannually and annually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

13,533 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$1,439,214, which is comprised of 

Operations & Management (O&M) costs 

of $359,065, labor costs of $1,080,149, 

and no annualized capital/start-up 

costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is no 

change in the total estimated burden 

currently identified in the OMB 

Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. 

Dated: September 26, 2008.

Abstract: The New Source 

Performance Standards (NSPS) for 

Petroleum Refineries were promulgated

cracking unit catalyst regenerators, fuel 

gas combustion devices, and Claus 

sulfur recovery plants of more than 20 

long tons per day commencing 

construction, modification or 

reconstruction after the date of proposal. 

Affected sources are required to 

complete initial notifications, 

performance tests, and periodic reports. 

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. These notifications, reports, 

and records are essential in determining 

compliance; and are required, in 

general, of all sources subject to NSPS. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is

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

BASINS 4.0 Climate Assessment Tool 

(CAT): Supporting Documentation and 

Users Manual 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of public comment 

period. 

SUMMARY: EPA is announcing a 30-day 

public comment period for the draft 

document titled, ‘‘BASINS 4.0 Climate 

Assessment Tool (CAT): Supporting 

Documentation and Users Manual’’ 

(EPA/600/R–08/088). The document 

was prepared by the National Center for 

Environmental Assessment within 

EPA’s Office of Research and 

Development. 

The Office of Research and 

Development, in partnership with EPA’s 

Office of Water, recently developed a 

Climate Assessment Tool (CAT) for the 

Office of Water’s BASINS 4.0 watershed 

modeling system. BASINS CAT 

provides a flexible set of capabilities for 

creating user-defined climate change 

scenarios for assessing the influence of 

climate variability and change on water 

quantity and quality using the 

Hydrologic Simulation Program— 

FORTRAN (HSPF) watershed model. 

This report provides documentation and 

technical user support including a 

discussion of tool capabilities with 

hands-on tutorials demonstrating the 

application of BASINS CAT to a range 

of problems. BASINS 4.0 (with the 

BASINS CAT) can be downloaded from 

EPA’s BASINS Web site at http:// 

www.epa.gov/waterscience/basins/ 

b3webdwn.htm. 

EPA is releasing this draft document 

solely for the purpose of predissemination peer review under 

applicable information quality
