Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards

    Title: Clean Air Act, Title V--Operating Permits Regulations-
Information Requirements Supplement, (EPA ICR #1587.03; OMB #2060-
0234.)
    Abstract: This ICR is for an extension of an existing information 
collection in support of the Clean Air Act, as described in 40 CFR Part 
70 establishing the minimum elements governing the development of State 
operating permit programs. Under this ICR, State and local government 
permitting authorities and stationary sources of air pollution will 
incur costs and burden. Permitting authorities have been working on 
their Title V programs since the promulgation of this original ICR on 
7/1/92. EPA has completed the majority of reviews of Title V programs 
submitted by State and local agencies. State and local authorities must 
provide EPA with the following: (1) Title V permit program; (2) permit 
applications and proposed permits; and (3) upon occurrence, 
applications for permit revisions and proposed revisions.
    Under this ICR, owners and operators of affected sources must 
provide the State or local permitting authority with (1) An operating 
permit application every 5 years; (2) semi-annual submission of 
monitoring or recordkeeping data; (3) annual certification of 
compliance; and (4) upon occurrence, applications for permit revisions. 
Sources must maintain all records that are representative of compliance 
with the Title V program.
    This ICR submission is only for a year extension to July 31, 1996. 
During this time, the Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards will 
finish the development of the new Title V Compliance rule. A final rule 
is expected to be promulgated by December 31, 1995. At that time, a new 
ICR will be submitted to OMB for review, containing the updated burden 
hour calculations.
    The supplement includes burden estimates that will be placed on the 
public and State and local authorities during the period of July 31, 
1995 through July 31, 1996.
    Burden Statement: Due to the completion of the Title V permitting 
program development by State and local permitting authorities, this ICR 
supplement represents the actual public reporting burden over the next 
year.
    Respondents: State and local governments and stationary sources.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 8,262,672 hours.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 34,324 respondents.
    Frequency of Collection: Semi-annually, annually, upon occurrence 
and every 5 years.
