Short
Characterization/
Abstract.

The
Environmental
Protection
Agency
(
EPA)
plans
to
collect
information
and
data
from
1,208
existing
plating
and
polishing
facilities.
These
establishments
are
primarily
engaged
in
electroplating,
electroless
plating,
metal
and
thermal
spraying,
anodizing,
coloring,
and
finishing
of
metals
and
formed
products
for
the
trade.
Plants
will
be
requested
to
complete
a
simple
paper
questionnaire
on
general
facility
information
(
location,
description,
types
of
processes
performed,

operating
hours,
technical
contact),
HAP
emissions
and
permit
data,
permit
conditions,
emission
tests
data,
process
design
and
operating
data,
HAP­
containing
material
data,
finished
product
types,
local
ventilation
system
information,
HAP
emission
control
measures,
and
pollution
prevention
practices.
The
questionnaire
may
be
completed
from
existing
information;
no
additional
monitoring
or
testing
is
required.
The
information
collected
will
be
quality­
assured
and
entered
into
a
computerized
database
for
use
in
the
development
of
area
source
standards
for
emissions
of
HAP.

Need
for
and
Use
of
the
Collection
(
a)
Need/
Authority
for
the
Collection.

Section
112(
d)
of
the
Clean
Air
Act
(
CAA)
requires
EPA
to
promulgate
national
emission
standards
for
HAP
emissions
from
new
and
existing
major
and
area
sources
that
are
listed
for
regulation
under
section
112(
c).
Area
sources
are
small
emitters
(
less
than
10
tons/
yr
of
any
individual
HAP
and
less
than
25
tons/
yr
from
a
combination
of
HAP),
but
contribute
about
half
of
the
nationwide
HAP
emissions
from
stationary
sources.
The
purpose
of
the
Area
Source
Program,
described
in
section
112(
k)
of
the
CAA,
is
to
reduce
HAP
emissions
to
a
level
that
achieves
a
substantial
reduction
in
risk
to
the
public
health.
The
area
source
standards
may
be
based
on
the
maximum
achievable
control
technology
(
MACT)
under
section
112(
d)(
2)
or
on
generally
available
control
technology
(
GACT)
or
management
practices
under
section
112(
d)(
5)

of
the
CAA.

Plating
and
polishing
is
one
of
the
70
area
source
categories
listed
for
regulation
under
EPA's
Integrated
Urban
Air
Toxics
Strategy
(
67
FR
43112,
June
26,
2002).
Current
information
and
data
are
needed
to
support
the
development
of
area
source
standards
for
this
source
category.

This
information
collection
is
authorized
under
section
114
of
the
CAA.

(
b)
Practical
Utility/
Users
of
the
Data.

The
proposed
ICR
focuses
on
the
basic
information
and
data
needed
for
developing
technology­
based
standards
or
requirements,
such
as
the
types
of
electroplating
and
other
plating
and
polishing
operations
performed,
annual
operating
hours
and
production
rates,
types
of
equipment
used,
and
air
pollution
control
systems
(
or
management
practices).
The
proposed
ICR
also
requests
basic
information
needed
to
perform
economic
impact
analyses.
The
database
that
3
will
be
developed
from
the
completed
questionnaires
will
be
used
by
the
Emission
Standards
Division
(
ESD)
in
EPA's
Office
of
Air
Quality
Planning
and
Standards
to
identify
HAP
emission
sources
(
including
any
subcategories)
and
applicable
control
technologies
or
methods;
to
determine
the
appropriate
scope
and
level
of
control;
and
to
estimate
HAP
emissions,
as
well
as
environmental,
cost,
and
economic
impacts.

3.
Nonduplication,
Consultations,
and
Other
Collection
Criteria
(
a)
Nonduplication.

A
search
of
EPA's
ongoing
ICRs
revealed
no
duplication
of
information­
gathering
efforts,

and
the
information
requested
is
not
available
through
other
sources.

(
b)
Public
Notice
Required
Prior
to
ICR
Submission
to
OMB.

The
EPA
published
a
pre­
ICR
Federal
Register
notice
on
July
29,
2005
(
70
FR
43865),

which
announced
our
intent
to
submit
this
ICR
to
OMB
and
requested
public
comments.
EPA
received
no
comments.

(
c)
Consultations.

The
questionnaire
was
developed
in
consultation
with
individual
facilities
and
an
industry
trade
association.
The
draft
questionnaire
was
field­
tested
by
nine
facilities
representing
a
crosssection
of
the
industry
to
obtain
labor
hour
estimates
and
suggestions
for
improvements.
Seven
of
the
nine
facilities
provided
labor
hour
estimates
with
their
responses.
Comments
also
were
invited
on
a
voluntary
basis
from
an
industry
trade
association.
In
general,
the
trade
association
and
plants
found
the
questionnaire
to
be
clearly
presented
and
easy
to
complete.
As
a
result
of
these
consultations,
ESD
made
minor
revisions
to
the
survey
instrument
to
clarify
questions
and
simplify
responses.

Agency
Activities,
Collection
Methodology,
and
Information
Management
(
a)
Agency
Activities.

Agency
activities
associated
with
this
information
collection
include
preparing
and
transmitting
the
questionnaire,
answering
respondent
questions
about
the
questionnaire,
reviewing
and
assuring
the
quality
of
data
submissions,
addressing
any
requests
for
confidentiality,
and
entering
the
data
into
a
computerized
database.

(
b)
Collection
Methodology
and
Information
Management.

The
EPA
has
identified
a
total
of
1,208
plants
as
plating
and
polishing
area
sources.
The
ESD
will
mail
each
facility
a
paper
copy
of
the
survey.
An
electronic
version
of
the
ICR
form
is
also
available
in
the
public
docket
through
the
EPA's
Electronic
Docket
(
EDOCKET)
at:

http://
www.
epa.
gov/
edocket.
Respondents
can
use
EDOCKET
to
download
a
word
processing
electronic
copy
of
the
form
by
selecting
"
search"
and
keying
in
the
Docket
ID
number:

OAR­
2005­
0084.
A
facility
may
return
the
completed
survey
in
paper
or
electronic
format
except
when
the
survey
contains
CBI,
in
which
case
it
cannot
be
emailed
or
sent
by
fax.
The
survey
responses
will
be
reviewed
for
completeness
and
quality­
assured
prior
to
being
entered
in
a
8
computerized
database.
Followup
calls
will
be
made
to
maximize
the
response
rate
and
clarify
any
questions
on
the
responses.
Any
CBI
will
be
maintained
in
a
secure
location
as
required
by
EPA
CBI
procedures.
The
CBI
will
not
be
entered
into
the
database
unless
a
substantial
number
of
responses
contain
CBI.
In
that
case,
the
data
will
be
entered
into
the
database,
and
the
database
will
be
treated
as
CBI
in
its
entirety.
Public
access
to
non­
CBI
information
will
be
provided
through
the
rulemaking
docket.

(
c)
Small
Entity
Flexibility.

The
Small
Business
Administration
defines
a
small
entity
in
this
industry
as
a
company
with
fewer
than
500
employees
at
all
facilities.
The
information
collected
from
small
entities
is
needed
to
perform
analyses
required
by
the
Regulatory
Flexibility
Act
and
the
Small
Business
Regulatory
Enforcement
Fairness
Act.
Information
on
emissions
and
the
level
of
control
performance
is
needed
from
all
plants
(
large
and
small)
to
determine
the
appropriate
regulatory
approach
and
level
of
control.
Information
on
small
facilities
will
also
provide
insight
into
pollution
prevention
measures
that
may
be
applicable.

Most
of
the
plants
in
this
area
source
category
are
likely
to
meet
the
definition
of
small
entity,
and
this
survey
has
been
designed
to
ensure
that
the
burden
of
responding
is
not
high.
The
information
requested
should
be
readily
available,
and
the
questionnaire
highlights
that
facilities
are
not
required
to
perform
additional
monitoring
or
testing
or
create
information.

(
d)
Collection
Schedule.

The
proposed
mailing
date
for
the
questionnaire
is
within
4
weeks
of
ICR
approval
by
OMB.
Respondents
generally
are
required
to
respond
within
8
weeks
of
receiving
the
survey.

Estimating
the
Burden
and
Cost
of
the
Collection
9
(
a)
Estimating
Respondent
Burden.

The
annual
burden
estimates
for
collecting
and
reporting
information
were
derived
from
labor
hour
estimates
provided
by
seven
of
the
nine
plants
that
field­
tested
the
draft
questionnaire.

The
labor
estimates
ranged
from
3.5
hours
for
a
small
plant
to
104
hours
for
a
very
large
facility.

Some
responses
were
completed
by
plant
personnel,
and
other
responses
were
completed
by
consultants.
When
the
responses
were
completed
by
plant
personnel,
the
average
burden
was
estimated
to
be
10
hours;
when
the
responses
were
completed
by
consultants,
the
average
burden
was
estimated
to
be
36
hours.
One
of
the
respondents,
a
military
installation
that
operates
dozens
of
plating
tanks,
estimated
the
burden
to
be
104
hours.
These
three
average
burden
estimates
(
10
hours,
36
hours,
and
104
hours)
were
used
to
estimate
the
overall
burden
for
this
information
collection.
It
was
assumed
that
a
total
of
10
military
installations
or
comparably
sized
facilities
would
respond
to
the
ICR,
and
that,
of
the
remaining
facilities,
95
percent
of
the
responses
would
be
completed
by
plant
personnel,
and
5
percent
of
the
responses
would
be
completed
by
consultants.
This
results
in
an
overall
average
burden
of
12.1
hours
per
facility.

are
used
as
the
basis
of
the

These
rates
represent
salaries
plus
fringe
benefits
but
do
not
include
the
cost
of
overhead.
The
base
labor
rates
were
adjusted
by
an
overhead

rate
of
167
percent.
Using
this
adjustment,
the

Estimating
Agency
Burden
and
Cost.

The
Agency
burden
estimates
are
based
on
labor
hours
for
preparing
and
transmitting
the
questionnaire;
answering
respondent
questions
about
the
questionnaire;
reviewing
data
submissions
(
including
followup
calls
if
needed
to
clarify
responses);
addressing
requests
for
confidentiality;
and
entering
data
in
the
computerized
database
(
including
quality
assurance
procedures).
These
burden
items
are
based
on
Agency
experience
with
previous
industry
surveys
conducted
to
meet
standards
development
needs.

The
Agency
labor
rates
are
based
on
Office
of
Personnel
Management
(
OPM)
2004
General
Schedule
which
excludes
locality
rates
of
pay.
These
rates
can
be
obtained
from
Salary
Table
2005­
GS
available
on
the
OPM
website
at
http://
www.
opm.

pdf/
gs_
h.
pdf.

The
government
employee
labor
rates
are
$
30.90
for
technical
(
GS­
13,
Step
1),
$
42.94
for
managerial
(
GS­
15,
Step
1),
and
$
14.65
for
clerical
(
GS­
7,
Step
1).
These
rates
represent
salaries
plus
fringe
benefits
but
do
not
include
the
cost
of
overhead.
The
base
labor
rates
were
adjusted
by
an
overhead
rate
of
167
percent.
Using
this
adjustment,
the
fully­
burdened
wage
rates
used
to
represent
Agency
labor
costs
are:
technical
at
$
51.60,
management
at
$
71.71,
and
clerical
at
$
24.47.

(

Estimating
the
Respondent
Universe
and
Total
Burden
and
Costs.

The
EPA
has
identified
a
total
of
1,280
potential
respondents
from
existing
Agency
11
databases
and
reference
sources.
Burden
hours
and
costs
are
annualized
over
the
3­
year
clearance
period
for
the
ICR.
Therefore,
the
average
annual
number
of
respondents
is
403.

Burden
Statement.

The
average
annual
respondent
burden
per
facility
is
estimated
at
12.1
hours
at
a
cost
of
$
925.
Burden
means
the
total
time,
effort,
or
financial
resources
expended
by
persons
to
generate,
maintain,
retain,
or
disclose
or
provide
information
to
or
for
a
Federal
agency.
This
includes
the
time
needed
to
review
instructions;
develop,
acquire,
install,
and
utilize
technology
and
systems
for
the
purposes
of
collecting,
validating,
and
verifying
information,
processing
and
maintaining
information,
and
disclosing
and
providing
information;
adjust
the
existing
ways
to
comply
with
any
previously
applicable
instructions
and
requirements;
train
personnel
to
be
able
to

respond
to
a
collection
of
information;
search
data
sources;
complete
and
review
the
collection
of
information;
and
transmit
or
otherwise
disclose
the
information.

An
agency
may
not
conduct
or
sponsor,
and
a
person
is
not
required
to
respond
to
a
collection
of
information
unless
it
displays
a
currently
valid
OMB
control
number.

INFORMATION
REQUEST
Background
and
Instructions
Section
112
of
the
Clean
Air
Act
outlines
the
statutory
requirements
for
the
EPA's
stationary
source
air
toxics
program.
Section
112(
k)
requires
the
development
of
standards
for
area
sources
which
account
for
90
percent
of
the
emissions
in
urban
areas
of
the
33
urban
hazardous
air
pollutants
(
HAP)
listed
in
the
Integrated
Urban
Air
Toxics
Strategy.
The
Integrated
Urban
Air
Toxics
Strategy
lists
plating
and
polishing
as
an
area
source
category.
The
plating
and
polishing
source
category
is
defined
to
include
establishments
primarily
engaged
in
all
types
of
electroplating,
plating,
polishing
(
using
physical,
chemical,
or
electrochemical
processes),
thermal
or
metal
spraying,
anodizing,
coloring,
and
finishing
of
metals
and
formed
products
for
the
trade.
Please
note
that
chromium
emissions
from
chromium
electroplating
and
anodizing
tanks
are
regulated
under
40
CFR
63,
subpart
N
and
will
not
be
addressed
under
the
plating
and
polishing
source
category.
We
are
requesting
in
question
I.
G
that
you
identify
electroplating
finishes,
including
chromium,
applied
in
your
facility
and
we
are
requesting
facility
chromium
emissions
in
Table
1
but
we
are
not
requesting
any
further
information
on
chromium
electroplating
operations.
Also
note
that
the
electroplating,
electroless
plating,
polishing,
anodizing,
thermal
or
metal
spraying,
coloring,
and
finishing
processes
covered
by
this
questionnaire
will
be
referred
to
generically
as
plating
and
polishing.

The
EPA
will
use
the
information
collected
from
a
full
industry
mail
out
of
this
questionnaire
to
evaluate
the
need
for
area
source
National
Emission
Standards
for
Hazardous
Air
Pollutants
(
NESHAP)
for
the
plating
and
polishing
area
source
category.
If
an
area
source
NESHAP
is
developed,
the
collected
information
will
be
used
to
evaluate
the
types
of
provisions
needed
to
limit
HAP
emissions
from
plating
and
polishing
operations
and
to
estimate
the
impacts
of
regulatory
options.

Please
answer
all
questions
unless
not
applicable
to
your
facility
or
operations,
in
which
case
note
that
the
question
is
not
applicable.
All
information
should
be
for
the
reporting
year.
Readily
available
information
should
be
used;
no
additional
emission
testing
or
monitoring
is
required
to
respond
to
this
questionnaire.
