Short
Characterization/
Abstract
The
National
Emission
Standards
for
Hazardous
Air
Pollutants
(
NESHAP)
for
the
regulations
published
at
40
CFR
part
63,
subpart
X,
were
proposed
on
June
9,
1994,
(
59
FR
29750),
and
promulgated
on
June
23,
1995,
(
60
FR
32587).
In
response
to
industry
petitions
to
reconsider,
the
final
rule
was
amended
on
June
13,
1997
(
62
FR
32209).
Entities
potentially
affected
by
this
rule
are
owners
or
operators
of
secondary
lead
smelters
that
operate
furnaces
to
reduce
scrap
lead
metal
and
lead
compounds
to
elemental
lead.
The
rule
applies
to
secondary
lead
smelters
that
use
blast,
reverberatory,
rotary,
or
electric
smelting
furnaces
to
recover
lead
metal
from
scrap
lead,
primarily
from
used
lead­
acid
automotive­
type
batteries.
The
rule
provides
protection
to
the
public
by
requiring
all
secondary
lead
smelters
to
meet
emission
standards
reflecting
the
application
of
the
maximum
achievable
control
technology
(
MACT).
This
information
is
being
collected
to
assure
compliance
with
40
CFR
part
63,
subpart
X.

In
general,
all
NESHAP
standards
require
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
of
all
sources
subject
to
NESHAP.

Any
owner
or
operator
subject
to
the
provisions
of
this
part
will
maintain
a
file
of
these
measurements,
and
retain
the
file
for
at
least
five
years
following
the
date
of
such
measurements,
maintenance
reports,
and
records.
All
reports
are
sent
to
the
delegated
State
or
local
authority.
In
the
event
that
there
is
no
such
delegated
authority,
the
reports
are
sent
directly
to
the
United
States
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(
EPA)
Regional
office.

Approximately
23
sources
are
currently
subject
to
the
regulation,
and
no
additional
sources
are
expected
to
become
subject
to
the
standard
in
the
next
three
years.
It
is
further
assumed
that
there
is
an
average
of
one
affected
facility
per
plant
respondent.

In
the
development
of
this
Information
Collection
Request
(
ICR),
we
addressed
the
Office
of
Management
and
Budget
(
OMB)
"
Terms
of
Clearance"
on
the
active
ICR
which
states:
2
This
collection
is
approved
through
October
2003.
OMB
understands
that
the
collection
does
not
currently
provide
for
respondents
to
use
electronic
means
of
reporting.
Under
the
terms
of
the
Government
Paperwork
Elimination
Act,
EPA
should
review
this
collection
and
adopt
such
means
of
reporting,
to
the
extent
practicable,
by
October
2003.
Thus,
before
resubmitting
this
collection
to
OMB
for
approval,
EPA
should
ensure
that,
to
the
extent
practicable,
the
collection
has
been
revised
to
include
electronic
means
of
reporting.

The
reports
required
by
this
rule
are
submitted
directly
to
State
and
local
pollution
control
Agencies,
rather
than
the
Federal
Government.
The
Government
Paperwork
Elimination
Act
applies
only
to
Federal
Agencies.

2.
Need
for
and
Use
of
the
Collection
2(
a)
Need/
Authority
for
the
Collection
The
EPA
is
charged
under
Section
112
of
the
Clean
Air
Act,
as
amended,
to
establish
standards
of
performance
for
each
category
or
subcategory
of
major
sources
and
area
sources
of
hazardous
air
pollutants.
These
standards
are
applicable
to
new
or
existing
sources
of
hazardous
air
pollutants
and
shall
require
the
maximum
degree
of
emission
reduction.
In
addition,
Section
114(
a)
states
that
the
Administrator
may
require
any
owner
or
operator
subject
to
any
requirement
of
this
Act
to:

(
A)
Establish
and
maintain
such
records;
(
B)
make
such
reports;
(
C)
install,
use,
and
maintain
such
monitoring
equipment,
and
use
such
audit
procedures,
or
methods;
(
D)
sample
such
emissions
(
in
accordance
with
such
procedures
or
methods,
at
such
locations,
at
such
intervals,
during
such
periods,
and
in
such
manner
as
the
Administrator
shall
prescribe);
(
E)
keep
records
on
control
equipment
parameters,
production
variables
or
other
indirect
data
when
direct
monitoring
of
emissions
is
impractical;
(
F)
submit
compliance
certifications
in
accordance
with
Section
114(
a)(
3);
and
(
G)
provide
such
other
information
as
the
Administrator
may
reasonably
require.

In
the
Administrator's
judgment,
metal
(
i.
e.,
containing
lead
compounds)
and
organic
hazardous
air
pollutants
(
HAPs)
emissions
from
secondary
lead
smelting
processes
cause
or
contribute
to
air
pollution
that
may
reasonably
be
anticipated
to
endanger
public
health
or
welfare.
Therefore,
the
NESHAP
was
promulgated
for
this
source
category
at
40
CFR
part
63,
subpart
X.
3
2(
b)
Practical
Utility/
Users
of
the
Data
The
control
of
metal
and
organic
HAPs
emissions
from
secondary
lead
smelting
processes
requires
not
only
the
installation
of
properly
designed
equipment,
but
also
the
operation
and
maintenance
of
that
equipment.
Emissions
of
metal
and
organic
HAPs
emissions
from
secondary
lead
smelting
processes
are
the
result
of
operation
of
the
affected
facilities
(
i.
e.,
smelting
furnaces,
refining
kettles,
agglomerating
furnaces,
dryers
and
fugitive
dust).
The
subject
standards
are
achieved
by
the
capture
of
source
and
fugitive
emissions
containing
total
hydrocarbons
and
lead
compounds
by
adhering
to
the
leak
detection
and
repair
plan
for
baghouses
or
use
of
wet
scrubbers
to
control
particulate
matter
and
metal
hazardous
air
pollutants.

The
notifications
required
in
the
applicable
regulations
are
used
to
inform
the
Agency
or
delegated
authority
when
a
source
becomes
subject
to
the
requirements
of
the
regulations.
The
reviewing
authority
may
then
inspect
the
source
to
check
if
the
pollution
control
devices
are
properly
installed
and
operated
and/
or
leaks
are
being
detected
and
repaired
and
the
regulations
are
being
met.
The
semiannual,
or
as
determined
by
the
Administrator,
emissions
reports,
i.
e.,
are
used
for
problem
identification,
as
a
check
on
source
operation
and
maintenance,
and
for
compliance
determinations.

The
information
generated
by
the
(
monitoring,
recordkeeping
and
reporting)
requirement
described
in
this
ICR
is
used
by
the
Agency
to
ensure
that
facilities
affected
by
the
NESHAP
continue
to
operate
the
control
equipment
in
compliance
with
the
regulation.
Adequate
monitoring,
recordkeeping,
and
reporting
are
necessary
to
ensure
compliance
with
the
applicable
regulations,
as
required
by
the
Clean
Air
Act.
The
information
collected
from
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements
is
also
used
for
targeting
inspections,
and
is
of
sufficient
quality
to
be
used
as
evidence
in
court.

3.
Nonduplication,
Consultations,
and
Other
Collection
Criteria
The
requested
recordkeeping
and
reporting
are
required
under
40
CFR
part
63,
subpart
X.

3(
a)
Nonduplication
If
the
subject
standards
have
not
been
delegated,
the
information
is
sent
directly
to
the
appropriate
EPA
Regional
office.
Otherwise,
the
information
is
sent
directly
to
the
delegated
State
or
local
agency.
If
a
State
or
local
agency
has
adopted
their
own
similar
standards
to
implement
the
Federal
standards,
a
copy
of
the
report
submitted
to
the
State
or
local
agency
can
be
sent
to
the
Administrator
in
lieu
of
the
report
required
by
the
Federal
standards.
Therefore,
no
duplication
exists.

b)
Public
Notice
Required
Prior
to
ICR
Submission
to
OMB
An
announcement
of
a
public
comment
period
for
the
renewal
of
this
ICR
was
published
in
the
Federal
Register
on
May
19,
2003.
No
comments
were
received
on
the
burden
published
in
the
Federal
Register.

3(
c)
Consultations
For
this
information
collection,
several
sources
were
used
to
obtain
updated
information
on
the
number
of
sources
and
on
the
assumptions
made
to
determine
the
industry
burden
associated
with
NESHAP
subpart
X
over
the
next
three
years.
We
referenced
the
most
recent
ICR,
and
reviewed
information
available
from
the
Office
of
Compliance
Sector
Notebook
"
Profile
of
the
Nonferrous
Metals
Industry."
We
also
accessed
the
most
recent
data,
dated
June
03,
2003,
available
on
the
Air
Facility
System
(
AFS)
database
as
maintained
by
the
Office
of
Compliance.
In
addition,
we
contacted
Mr.
Khonane
Ditthavong
of
King
&
Spading,
LLP,
they
are
the
representatives
of
the
Lead
Trade
Associations,
his
phone
number
is
(
202)
626­
5546,
and
Mr.
Troy
Gueiss
of
East
Penn
Mfg.
Co.
Inc.,
his
phone
number
is
(
610)
682­
6361.

3(
d)
Effects
of
Less
Frequent
Collection
Less
frequent
information
collection
would
decrease
the
margin
of
assurance
that
facilities
are
continuing
to
meet
the
standards.
Requirements
for
information
gathering
and
recordkeeping
is
a
useful
technique
to
ensure
that
good
operation
and
maintenance
practices
are
applied
and
emission
limitations
are
met.
If
the
information
required
by
these
standards
was
collected
less
frequently,
the
likelihood
of
detecting
poor
operation
and
maintenance
of
control
equipment
and
noncompliance
would
decrease.

3(
e)
General
Guidelines
None
of
these
reporting
or
recordkeeping
requirements
violate
any
of
the
regulations
established
by
OMB
at
5
CFR
Part
1320,
Section
1320.5.

These
standards
require
affected
facilities
to
maintain
all
records,
including
reports
and
notifications
for
at
least
five
years.
This
is
consistent
with
the
General
Provisions
as
applied
to
the
standards.
EPA
believes
that
the
five­
year
records'
retention
requirement
is
consistent
the
Part
70
permit
program
and
the
five­
year
statute
of
limitations
on
which
the
permit
program
is
based.
Also,
the
retention
of
records
for
five
years
would
allow
EPA
to
establish
the
compliance
history
of
a
source
and
any
pattern
of
compliance
for
purposes
of
determining
the
appropriate
level
of
enforcement
action.
Historically,
EPA
has
found
that
the
most
flagrant
violators
frequently
have
violations
extending
beyond
the
five
years.
EPA
would
be
prevented
from
pursuing
the
worst
violators
due
to
the
destruction
or
nonexistence
of
records
if
records
were
retained
for
less
than
five
years.

Confidentiality
The
required
information
has
been
determined
not
to
be
confidential.
However,
any
information
submitted
to
the
Agency
for
which
a
claim
of
confidentiality
is
made
will
be
safeguarded
according
to
the
Agency
policies

5(
a)
Agency
Activities
EPA
conducts
the
following
activities
in
connection
with
the
acquisition,
analysis,
storage,
and
distribution
of
the
required
information.

Agency
Activities
Observe
initial
performance
tests
and
repeat
performance
tests
if
necessary.

Review
notifications
and
reports,
including
performance
test
reports,
and
excess
emissions
reports,
required
to
be
submitted
by
industry.

Audit
facility
records.

Input,
analyze,
and
maintain
data
in
the
Air
Facility
System
(
AFS).

5(
b)
Collection
Methodology
and
Management
Following
notification
of
startup,
the
reviewing
authority
might
inspect
the
source
to
determine
whether
the
pollution
control
devices
are
properly
installed
and
operated.
Data
and
records
maintained
by
the
respondents
are
tabulated
and
published
for
use
in
compliance
and
enforcement
programs.
The
semiannual
reports
of
excess
emissions
are
used
for
problem
identification,
as
a
check
on
source
operation
and
maintenance,
and
for
compliance
determinations.

Information
contained
in
the
reports
is
entered
into
the
AFS
which
is
operated
and
maintained
by
EPA's
Office
of
Compliance.
AFS
is
EPA's
database
for
the
collection,
maintenance,
and
retrieval
of
compliance
and
annual
emission
inventory
data
for
more
than
100,000
industrial
and
government­
owned
facilities.
EPA
uses
the
AFS
for
tracking
air
pollution
compliance
and
enforcement
by
local
and
State
regulatory
agencies,
EPA
Regional
offices
and
EPA
Headquarters.
EPA
and
its
delegated
Authorities
can
edit,
store,
retrieve
and
analyze
the
data.

The
records
required
by
this
regulation
must
be
retained
by
the
owner
or
operator
for
five
years.

5(
c)
Small
Entity
Flexibility
A
majority
of
the
affected
facilities
are
small
entities
(
e.
g.,
small
businesses).
However,
the
impact
on
small
entities
was
taken
into
consideration
during
the
development
of
the
regulation.
Due
to
technical
considerations
involving
the
process
operations
and
the
types
of
control
equipment
employed,
the
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements
are
the
same
for
both
small
and
large
entities.
The
Agency
considers
these
requirements
the
minimum
needed
to
ensure
9
compliance
and,
therefore,
cannot
reduce
them
further
for
small
entities.

5(
d)
Collection
Schedule
The
specific
frequency
for
each
information
collection
activity
within
this
request
is
shown
in
Table
1:
NESHAP
for
the
Secondary
Lead
Smelter
Industry
(

CFR
part
63,
subpart
X).

of
individual
burdens
for
the
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements
applicable
to
the
industry
for
the
subpart
included
in
this
ICR.
The
individual
burdens
are
expressed
under
standardized
headings
believed
to
be
consistent
with
the
concept
of
burden
under
the
Paperwork

Act.
Where
appropriate,
specific
tasks
and
major
assumptions
have
been
identified.
Responses
to
this

collection
are
mandatory.

The
Agency
may
not

a
person
is
not
required
to
respond
to,
a
collection
of
information
unless
it
displays
a
currently
valid

Estimating
Respondent
Burden
The
average
annual
burden
to
industry
over
the
next
three
years
from
these
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements
is
estimated
to
be
16,034
(
Total
Labor
Hours
from
Table

These
hours
are
based
on
Agency
studies
and
background
documents
from
the
development
of
the
regulation,
Agency
knowledge
and
experience
with
the
NESHAP
program,
the
previously
approved
ICR,
and
any
comments
received.

Even
though
there

there
is
no
increase
in

The
increase
in

was
due
to

from
the
United

Assumptions:

a
Costs
are
based
on
the
following
hourly
rates:
$
89.94
per
hour
for
Executive,
Administrative,
and
Managerial
labor;
$
61.66
per
hour
for
Technical
labor,
and
$
38.39
per
hour
for
Clerical
labor.
These
rates
are
from
the
United
States
Department
of
Labor,
Bureau
of
Labor
Statistics,
September
2002,
"
Table
10.
Private
industry,
by
occupational
and
industry
group."
The
rates
are
from
column
1,

"
Total
compensation."
The
rates
have
been
increase
by
110%
to
account
for
the
benefit
packages
available
to
those
employed
by
private
industry.
Management
person­
hours
and
clerical
person­
hours
are
assumed
to
be
5
percent
and
10
percent
of
technical
personhours
respectively.

b
One­
time
only
activity.
Assumes
no
new
sources
over
the
next
three
years.

c
Three
facilities
already
have
continuous
particulate
monitors
(
CPM).
Assumes
1
hour
per
week
to
monitor
and
respond
to
alarms.

d
Since
baghouses
requirements
are
part
of
the
normal
plant
operation,
inspections
are
not
attributed
to
this
rule.

We
have
determined
that
there
are
approximately
23
existing
sources
currently
subject
to
this
rule
and
that
no
new
plants
will
be
constructed
over
the
next
three
years
of
this
ICR.
However,
we
have
assumed
that
one
furnace
will
be
rebuilt
per
year
over
the
period
of
this
ICR.

e
Sources
must
perform
this
inspection
when
starting­
up
and
once
per
year
thereafter.

f
Assume
that
each
facility
will
make
a
major
adjustment
once
per
year.
In
each
instance,
SOP
must
be
revised.

g
Sources
are
required
to
submit
semi­
annual
status
reports
of
excess
emissions
or
no
excess
emissions.

h
The
owner
or
operator
shall
submit
fugitive
dust
control
and
baghouse
SOP,
along
with
a
notification
requesting
review
and
approval.

Assumptions:

a
Costs
are
based
on
the
hourly
rate
for
Technical
personnel
of
$
39.49,
which
has
been
increased
by
a
1.6
multiplication
factor
to
account
for
government
overhead
expenses.
This
rate
is
obtained
from
the
Office
of
Planning
and
Management
(
OPM)
"
2003
General
Schedule"
which
excludes
locality
rates
of
pay.

b
We
have
determined
that
there
are
approximately
23
existing
sources
currently
subject
to
this
rule
and
that
no
new
plants
will
be
constructed
over
the
next
three
years
of
this
ICR.
However,
we
have
assumed
that
one

be
rebuilt

20
c
Assumes
that
each
plant
will
make
at
least
one
major
adjustment
per
year.

d
Assume
that
it
will
take
8
hrs
to
review
annual
compliance
test.

e
Since
there
are
no
new
sources
expected
over
the
period
of
this
ICR,
there
will
be
no
costs
associated
with
attending
performance
tests.
