    Abstract: These regulations apply to hot mix asphalt facilities 
comprised only of a combination of the following: Dryers; systems for 
screening, handling, storing, and weighing hot aggregate; systems for 
loading, transferring, and storing mineral filler; systems for mixing 
hot mix asphalt; and the loading, transfer, and storage systems 
associated with emission control systems.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Hot mix asphalt facilities.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart I).
    Estimated number of respondents: 4,640 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially and occasionally.
    Total estimated burden: 19,000 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $1,893,000 (per year), includes $0 annualized 
capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the 
estimated burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved Burdens. The increase is not due to any program changes. The 
change in burden occurred because the number of respondents subject to 
the standard has increased since the last ICR renewal period. In 
addition, the use of more updated labor rates results in an increase in 
total labor costs.

Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division.
