    Title: New Source Performance Standards for Coal Preparation Plants 
(EPA ICR #1062.05; OMB #2060-0122).
    Abstract: This ICR is for an extension of an existing information 
collection in support of the Clean Air Act, as described under the 
general NSPS at 40 CFR 60.7-60.8, and the specific NSPS, regulating 
emissions from coal preparation plants, at 40 CFR 60.253. The EPA will 
use the information to direct monitoring, inspection, and enforcement 
efforts, thereby ensuring compliance with the NSPS.
    Under this ICR owners and operators of new facilities, estimated at 
18 facilities per year, must provide EPA with: (1) notification of 
construction or reconstruction, (2) anticipated and actual dates of 
facility start-up, and (3) notification of demonstration of the 
continuous monitoring system.
    Owners and operators of 352 existing facilities must notify EPA of 
any physical or operational change to an existing facility which may 
increase the

on the facility operation that document: (1) The occurrence and 
duration of any start-ups, shutdowns, and malfunctions; (2) 
measurements of particulate matter emissions; (3) pressure drops across 
any scrubber system; and (4) the initial performance test results of 
the continuous monitoring system demonstration. All subject facilities 
must maintain records related to compliance for 2 years.
    Burden Statement: Public reporting burden for this collection of 
information is estimated to average 65 hours per response, including 
time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, 
gathering the data needed, completing the collection of information and 
maintaining records.
