Affected Entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are Municipal Waste Combustor (MWC) units with combustion capacity greater than 225 megagrams per day (250 tons per day) of municipal solid waste.
Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for the regulations published at 40 CFR part 60, subpart Ea and subpart Eb were proposed on December 20, 1980, and September 20, 1994 (respectively), and promulgated on February 11, 1991, and December 19, 1995 (respectively). Municipal waste combustor (MWC) facilities which commenced construction after December 20, 1989, and on or before September 20, 1994, or commenced modification or reconstruction after December 20, 1989, and on or before June 19, 1996, are subject to the regulations at 40 CFR part 60, subpart Ea. MWC facilities which commenced construction after September 20, 1994, or commenced modification or reconstruction after June 19, 1996 are subject to the regulations in 40 CFR part 60, subpart Eb.
The affected sources are subject to the General Provisions of the NSPS at 40 CFR part 60, subpart A and any changes or additions to the General Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 60, subparts Ea and Eb.
In general, all NSPS standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports. Owners or operators 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 sources subject to NSPS.

Abstract: The National Emissions Standard for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for the regulations published at 40 CFR part 60, subpart L were proposed on December 4, 1992, and promulgated on October 27, 1993. These standards apply to all coke oven batteries, whether existing, new, reconstructed, rebuilt or restarted. It also applies to all batteries using the conventional by-product recovery, the nonrecovery process, or any new recovery process.
The affected sources are subject to the General Provisions of the NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A and any changes or additions to the General Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, subpart L. Owners or operators of the affected facilities described must make one-time-only notifications to elect a compliance track and to certify initial compliance. Owners or operators 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. Monitoring requirements specific to coke oven batteries provide information on the operation of the emissions control device and compliance with the visible emissions standard. Semiannual reports of compliance certifications are required. Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part must maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at least one year following the date of such measurements, maintenance reports, and records, and must thereafter be accessible within three working days.
Burden Statement: In the previously approved ICR, the estimated number of respondents for this information collection was 25 with 58 responses per year. The annual industry reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information was 104,659 hours.
