Information Collection Request Submitted to OMB for Review and 
Approval; Comment Request; NESHAP for Engine Test Cells/Stands 
(Renewal)

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has submitted an 
information collection request (ICR), NESHAP for Engine Test Cells/
Stands (Renewal) (EPA ICR No. 2066.06, OMB Control No. 2060-0483), to 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in 
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq). 
This is a proposed extension of the ICR, which is currently approved 
through January 31, 2015. Public comments were previously requested via 
the Federal Register (79 FR 30117) on May 27, 2014 during a 60-day 
comment period. This notice allows for an additional 30 days for public 
comments. A fuller description of the ICR is given below, including its 
estimated burden and cost to the public. 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.

DATES: Additional comments may be submitted on or before December 5, 
2014.

    Abstract: Respondents are owners or operators of engine test cells/
stands located at major source facilities that are being used for 
testing internal combustion engines. An engine test cell/stand is any 
apparatus used for testing uninstalled stationary or uninstalled mobile 
(motive) engines. A plant site that is a major source of hazardous air 
pollutant (HAP) emissions emits or has the potential to emit any single 
HAP at a rate of 10 tons (9.07 megagrams) or more per year or any 
combination of HAPs at a rate of 25 tons (22.68 megagrams) or more per 
year. New or reconstructed sources must be in

compliance with the requirements of the engine test cells/stands NESHAP 
upon startup.
    Form numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Owners or operators of engine test 
cells/stands located at major source facilities that are being used for 
testing internal combustion engines.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
Subpart PPPPP).
    Estimated number of respondents: 18 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 1,719 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $173,607 (per year), which includes $5,400 in 
annualized capital and/or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the estimates: There is a decrease of 1,324 hours in the 
total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently 
approved by OMB. This decrease is due to the correction of two errors. 
First, in the previous ICR, it was assumed that performance evaluation 
reports would be submitted every five years. However, performance 
evaluations are only conducted initially, when new facilities first 
needed to demonstrate compliance with the standard. Since there will be 
no new or reconstructed sources over the next three years, performance 
evaluations are not required. Second, in the previous ICR, it was 
assumed that one out of the eighteen sources would write an annual 
deviation report. However, deviations are reported as part of the 
semiannual compliance status report; separate reports are not required. 
As a result of these two corrections, there is an overall decrease in 
the estimated burden cost as currently identified in the OMB Inventory 
of Approved Burdens.
