    Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Pressure 
Sensitive Tape and Label Surface Coating Operations (40 CFR part 60 
subpart RR) were proposed on December 30, 1980, and promulgated on 
October 18, 1983, and amended on October 17, 2000. These regulations 
apply to existing facilities and new facilities with coating lines used 
in the manufacture of pressure sensitive tape and label materials. 
Existing facilities and new facilities are both subject to these 
regulations, except those facilities that input 45 mega grams (Mgs) of 
volatile organic compounds (VOC) or less per 12-month period. New 
facilities include those that commenced construction, modification or 
reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being 
collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 60, subpart RR.
    In general, all NSPS standards require initial notifications, 
performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/

operators of the affected facilities. They 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 of all affected facilities subject to 
NSPS.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Coating lines used in the 
manufacture of pressure sensitive tape and label materials.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart RR).
    Estimated number of respondents: 45 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 4,250 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $572,000 (per year), which includes $88,000 
in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the 
total estimated burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved Burden; this increase is not due to any program changes. This 
increase is due to an increase in the number of respondents based on 
the assumption that one new respondent per year will be subject to the 
standard. There is also an adjustment increase in the operating and 
maintenance costs due to the increase in the number of respondents.
