    Title: NSPS for Automobile and Light Duty Truck Surface Coating 
Operations (Renewal).
    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1064.16, OMB Control Number 2060-0034.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2010. Under 
OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the 
collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. 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. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations 
in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the Federal Register when 
approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, and displayed either by 
publication in the Federal Register or by other appropriate means, such 
as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The 
display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is 
consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.
    Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for 
Automobile and Light Duty Truck Surface Coating Operations (40 CFR part 
60, subpart MM) were proposed on October 5, 1979, and promulgated on 
December 24, 1980 (45 FR 85415).
    Owners or operators of the affected facilities must make an initial 
notification, performance tests, periodic reports, and 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. Reports, at a minimum, are 
required semiannually.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 483 
hours per response. 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 which have subsequently changed; 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.
    Respondents/Affected Entities: Automobile and light duty truck 
surface coating operations.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 54.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, quarterly, and 
semiannually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 156,362

[[Page 22400]]

    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $14,882,842, which includes: 
$14,790,142 in labor costs, $1,700 in capital/startup costs, and 
$91,000 in operation and maintenance (O&M) costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease in the average 
estimated burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved Burdens. This decrease is not due to any program changes. The 
total estimated annual hour burden remained the same but the change in 
the average burden estimates occurred due to an incorrect calculation 
of the number of responses in the previous ICR. Further, the reduction 
in Agency burden from 760 to 708 is a result of a rounding error in the 
previous burden estimate.

Director, Collection Strategies Division.
