    Title: Compliance Extensions for Early Reductions-Reporting and 
Recordkeeping Requirements (EPA ICR No. 1582.02; OMB No. 2060-0222). 
This is a request for renewal of a currently approved information 
collection.
    Abstract: Respondents are owners or operators of sources emitting 
hazardous air pollutants (HAP) who voluntarily seek compliance 
extensions for applicable standards through demonstration of early 
emission reductions, in accordance with the regulations implementing 
section 112(i)(5) of the Clean Air Act (see 40 CFR part 63, subpart D). 
Sources may obtain a six-year extension of compliance with standards 
promulgated under section 112(d), if the source demonstrates 
achievement of early reduction of HAP by 90 percent (95 percent for 
particulates), before proposal of an applicable section 112(d) 
standard. Industry respondents must submit a one-time demonstration of 
reductions achieved. State or local permitting agencies will evaluate 
these demonstrations for the purpose of granting compliance extensions.
    Burden Statement: The public reporting burden for this collection 
of information is estimated to average 440 hours per response. This 
estimate includes the time needed to review instructions, search 
existing data sources, gather and maintain the data needed, and 
complete and review the collection of information.
    Respondents: Owners or operators of HAP sources who voluntarily 
seek compliance extensions for applicable standards through 
demonstration of early emission reductions.
    Estimated No. of Respondents: 30.
    Estimated No. of Responses per Respondent: One.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 13,200 hours.
    Frequency of Collection: One time.

the information collection, including suggestions for reducing the 
burden, to:
