(Renewal)

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has submitted an 
information collection request (ICR), NESHAP for Metal Furniture 
Surface Coating (EPA ICR No. 1952.10, OMB Control No. 2060-0518), to 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in 
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act. This is a proposed

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 neither conduct nor 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 April 25, 
2022.

    Abstract: Owners and operators of metal furniture surface coating 
facilities are required to comply with reporting and record keeping 
requirements for the General Provisions (40 CFR part 63, subpart A), as 
well as for the applicable specific standards in 40 CFR part 63 subpart 
RRRR. This includes submitting initial notifications, performance tests 
and periodic reports and results, maintaining records of materials 
usage, and any period during which the add-on control system is 
inoperative. These reports are used by EPA to determine compliance with 
these standards.
    Form Numbers: 5900-0528.
    Respondents/affected entities: Existing and new facilities that 
perform metal furniture surface coating operations.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart RRRR).
    Estimated number of respondents: 16 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 4,270 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $505,000 (per year), which includes $0 for 
annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease in burden from the 
most-recently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory 
of Approved Burdens. This ICR incorporates the requirements from the 
March 2019 and November 2020 rules. The decrease is due to two 
considerations. Since a previous ICR renewal, 1952.06, was published in 
2016, sources have changed their coating practices to use non-HAP 
coatings, resulting in a decrease in the number of respondents. The 
data gathered during the recent rulemaking indicates that there are no 
sources using add-on controls, resulting in a decrease in O&M costs. 
There is no growth in this industry, therefore there is no annualized 
capital/startup cost.
