Title:
NSPS
for
Nonmetallic
Mineral
Processing
(

CFR
part
60,
subpart
OOO),
(
OMB
Control
Number
2060
 
0050,
EPA
ICR
Number
1084.07).
This
is
a
request
to
renew
an
existing,
approved
collection
that
is
scheduled
to
expire
on
June
30,
2003.
Under
OMB
regulations,
the
Agency
may
continue
to
conduct
or
sponsor
the
collection
of
information
while
this
submission
is
pending
at
OMB.
Abstract:
The
Administrator
has
judged
that
PM
emissions
from
nonmetallic
mineral
processing
plants
cause
or
contribute
to
air
pollution
that
may
reasonably
be
anticipated
to
endanger
public
health
or
welfare.
This
standard
applies
to
owners
or
operators
of
new,
modified,
or
reconstructed
facilities
at
nonmetallic
mineral
processing
plants
that
commenced
construction,
modification,
or
reconstruction
after
August
1,
1985.
Nonmetallic
mineral
processing
includes
the
following
affected
facilities:
each
crusher,
grinding
mill,
screening
operation,
bucket
elevator,
belt
conveyor,
bagging
operation,
storage
bin,
and
enclosed
truck
or
railcar
loading
station.
This
standard
does
not
apply
to
facilities
located
in
underground
mines;
stand­
alone
screening
operations;
operations
that
only
involve
recycled
asphalt;
fixed
sand
gravel,
or
crushed
stone
plants
with
capacities
of
25
tons
per
hour
or
less;
portable
sand,
gravel,
or
crushed
stone
plants
with
capacities
of
150
tons
per
hour
or
less;
common
clay
or
pumice
plants
with
capacities
of
10
tons
per
hour
or
less.
Additionally,
when
an
existing
facility
is
replaced
by
a
piece
of
equipment
of
equal
or
smaller
size
it
is
not
subject
to
the
standard
until
all
facilities
in
a
production
line
are
replaced.
Affected
facilities
in
the
plant
process
that
are
subject
to
40
CFR
part
60,
subpart
F,
for
Portland
Cement
NSPS,
or
subpart
I,
Asphalt
Concrete
Plants
NSPS,
are
not
subject
to
this
NSPS.
Respondents
must
submit
the
following
one­
time­
only
reports:
notification
of
the
date
of
construction
or
reconstruction,
notification
of
the
actual
date
of
initial
startup,
notification
of
any
physical
or
operational
change
to
an
existing
facility
which
may
increase
the
regulated
pollutant
emission
rate,
notification
of
demonstration
of
the
continuous
emission
monitor
system
(
CMS)
where
the
CMS
is
required
(
wet
scrubber),
notification
of
the
date
of
the
initial
performance
test,
and
the
results
of
the
initial
performance
test.
Wet
mining/
screening
operations
are
exempt
from
all
requirements
of
the
regulation,
except
an
initial
report
and
record
describing
the
location
of
these
operations.
The
general
provision
requirement
to
submit
a
notification
of
the
anticipated
date
of
initial
startup
is
being
waived
for
respondents
subject
to
this
standard.
The
required
notifications
are
used
to
inform
the
Agency
or
delegated
authority
when
a
source
becomes
subject
to
the
standard.
Respondents
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.
Owners
or
operators
of
facilities
using
a
wet
scrubber
must
record
the
measurements
of
both
the
change
in
pressure
of
the
gas
stream
across
the
scrubber
and
the
scrubbing
liquid
flow
rate
and
submit
semiannual
reports
for
occurrences
when
the
measurements
of
the
scrubber
pressure
loss
(
or
gain)
and
liquid
flow
rate
differ
by
more
than
+/­
30
percent
from
the
average
determined
during
the
most
recent
performance
test.
All
records
shall
be
retained
for
at
least
two
years.
The
information
collected
from
recordkeeping
and
reporting
requirements
is
necessary
to
ensure
compliance
with
these
standards,
as
required
by
section
114(
a)
of
the
Clean
Air
Act.
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
are
listed
in
40
CFR
part
9
and
48
CFR
chapter
15,
and
are
identified
on
the
form
and/
or
instrument,
if
applicable.
Burden
Statement:
The
annual
public
reporting
and
recordkeeping
burden
for
this
collection
of
information
is
estimated
to
average
5.6
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

emissions
budget
for
nitrogen
oxides
(
NOX).
The

in
this
document
refers
to
the
