Title:
NESHAP:
Benzene
Waste
Operations
(
40
CFR
part
61,
subpart
FF)
(
OMB
Control
Number
2060
 
0183,
EPA
ICR
Number
1541.07).
This
is
a
request
to
renew
an
existing
approved
collection
that
is
scheduled
to
expire
on
February
28,
2003.
Under
the
OMB
regulations,
the
Agency
may
continue
to
conduct
or
sponsor
the
collection
of
information
while
this
submission
is
pending
at
OMB.
Abstract:
Any
facility
which
manages
a
waste
containing
benzene
must
maintain
records
and
submit
reports
to
the
Agency.
There
is
a
tiered
threshold
for
burden.
Facilities
managing
waste
containing
less
than
1
megagram
per
year
(
Mg/
yr)
of
benzene
must
certify
to
that
effect
and
maintain
documentation
to
support
their
finding.
Facilities
managing
more
than
1
Mg/
yr
and
less
than
10
Mg/
yr
of
benzene­
containing
waste
must
prepare
an
initial
certification,
test
annually
to
verify
that
their
waste
stream
still
falls
within
this
range,
and
maintain
documentation
to
support
these
findings.
Facilities
managing
more
than
10
Mg/
yr
of
waste
must
submit
quarterly
and
annual
reports
documenting
the
results
of
continuous
monitoring.
The
Agency
uses
this
information
to
determine
compliance
and
to
select
plants
or
processes
for
inspection.
The
required
notifications
are
used
to
inform
the
Agency
or
delegated
authority
when
a
source
becomes
subject
to
the
standard.
Performance
test
reports
are
needed
as
these
are
the
Agency's
record
of
a
source's
initial
capability
to
comply
with
the
emission
standard,
and
serve
as
a
record
of
the
operating
conditions
under
which
compliance
was
achieved.
The
monitoring
and
excess
emissions
reports
are
used
for
problem
identification,
as
a
check
on
source
operation
and
maintenance,
and
for
compliance
determinations.
The
information
collected
from
record
keeping
and
reporting
requirements
is
used
for
targeting
inspections,
and
for
other
uses
in
compliance
and
enforcement
programs.
Responses
to
this
information
collection
are
deemed
to
be
mandatory,
per
section
114(
a)
of
the
Clean
Air
Act.
The
required
information
consists
of
emissions
data
and
other
information
that
have
been
determined
not
to
be
private.
However,
any
information
submitted
to
the
Agency
for
which
a
claim
of
confidentiality
is
made
will
be
safeguarded
according
to
the
Agency
policies
set
forth
in
Title
40,
chapter
1,
part
2,
subpart
B

An
agency
may
not
conduct

a
person
is
not

Requesting
Federal
Financial
Assistance
(
OMB
Control
No.
2090
 
0014,
EPA
ICR
Number
0275.08).
This
is
a
request
to
renew
an
existing
approved
collection
that
is
scheduled
to
expire
on
02/
28/
2003.
Under
OMB
regulations,
the
Agency
may
continue
to
conduct
or
sponsor
the
collection
of
information
while
this
submission
is
pending
at
OMB.
Abstract:
The
information
request
and
gathering
is
a
part
of
the
requirement
of
40
CFR
Part
7,
``
Nondiscrimination
in
Programs
Receiving
Federal
Assistance
from
the
Environmental
Protection
Agency,''
at
40
CFR
7.80.
The
Regulation
implements
statutes
which
prohibit
discrimination
on
the
basis
of
race,
color,
national
origin,
sex
and
handicap.
This
information
is
also
required,
in
part,
by
the
Department
of
Justice
regulation,
28
CFR
42.406
and
28
CFR
42.407.
The
information
is
collected
on
a
short
form
for
grant
and
loan
applicants
as
part
of
the
application
process.
The
EPA
Director
of
Civil
Rights
manages
the
data
collection
through
a
regional
component
whom
also
carries
out
the
data
analysis
and
makes
the
recommendation
on
the
respondent's
ability
to
meet
the
requirements
of
the
regulation,
as
well
as
the
respondent's
current
compliance
with
the
regulation.
The
information
and
analysis
is
of
sufficient
value
for
the
Director
to
determine
whether
the
application
is
in
compliance
with
the
regulation.
An
agency
may
not
conduct
or
sponsor,
and
a
person
is
not
required

to,
a
