    Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Miscellaneous Metal Parts and Products were 
proposed on August 13, 2002, and promulgated on January 2, 2004. These 
regulations apply to both existing and new facilities with 
miscellaneous metal parts and products surface coating operations, and 
associated equipment or containers used for mixing, conveying, storage, 
or waste. New facilities include those that commenced construction or 
reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being 
collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart MMMM.
    In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, 
performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the 
affected facilities. They 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 affected facilities subject to NESHAP.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Respondents are existing facilities 
and new facilities with miscellaneous metal parts and products surface 
coating operations, and associated equipment or containers used for 
mixing, conveying, storage, or waste.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR 63, Subpart 
MMMM).
    Estimated number of respondents: 390 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 179,000 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $20,600,000 (per year), which includes 
$240,000 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance 
costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: The adjustment decrease in burden is due 
to more accurate estimates of existing and anticipated new sources. The 
EPA identified a large decrease in the number of respondents subject to 
the subpart during an inventory conducted for the Risk and Technology 
Review for the source category. The decrease in respondents also 
results in a decrease in the number of respondents and a decrease in 
the O&M costs.
