Office of Air and Radiation

    Title: National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants 
(NESHAP) for Vinyl Chloride (40 CFR part 61, subpart F) (EPA ICR 
#186.07; OMB #2060-0071). This ICR requests renewal of the existing 
clearance.
    Abstract: Owners or operators of polyvinyl chloride, ethylene 
dichloride, and vinyl chloride monomer plants must submit to EPA or the 
State regulatory authority an application for approval of construction 
or modification of their plants and a notification of start-up. They 
may apply for a waiver of the initial emission test, if desired. Owners 
and operators of the regulated facilities are required to submit 
quarterly reports of excess emissions. They must also report each 
relief valve and manual vent valve discharge within 10 days. Owners or 
operators must maintain records of leaks detected in accordance with an 
approved leak detection and elimination program. EPA or the delegated 
State authority use these data to determine the compliance status of 
sources, and to target inspections.
    Burden Statement: Public reporting burden for this collection of 
information is estimated to average 50 hours per response for reporting 
and 140 hours per recordkeeper annually. This estimate includes time 
for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering 
the data needed, and completing the collection of information.
    Respondents: Owners and operators of polyvinyl chloride, ethylene 
dichloride and vinyl chloride monomer plants.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 45.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 16,000 hours.

    Frequency of Collection: Quarterly and on occasion.
