SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title: NSPS Subpart XX, Bulk Gasoline Terminals, OMB Control No. 
2060-0006; EPA ICR No. 0664.06, expires August 31, 1999. This request 
is an extension of a currently approved collection.
    Abstract: Owners or operators of the affected facilities described 
must make the following one-time-only reports: notification of the date 
of construction or reconstruction; notification of the

[[Page 38421]]

anticipated and actual dates of startup; notification of any physical 
or operational change to an existing facility which may increase the 
regulated pollutant emission rate; notification of the date of the 
initial performance test; and the results of the initial performance 
test. 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. These notifications, reports and 
records are required, in general, of all sources subject to NSPS.
    Monitoring requirements specific to bulk gasoline terminals consist 
mainly of identifying and documenting vapor tightness for each gasoline 
tank truck that is loaded at the affected facility, and notifying the 
owner or operator of each tank truck that is not vapor tight. The owner 
or operator must also perform a monthly visual inspection for liquid or 
vapor leaks, and maintain records of these inspections at the facility 
for a period of two years.
    The reporting requirements for this industry currently include only 
the initial notifications and initial performance test report listed 
above. All reports are sent to the delegated State or local authority. 
In the event that there is no such delegated authority, the reports are 
sent directly to the EPA Regional Office. Notifications are used to 
inform the Agency or delegated authority when a source becomes subject 
to the standard. The reviewing authority may then inspect the source to 
ensure that the pollution control devices are properly installed and 
operated. Performance test reports are needed as these are the Agency's 
record of a source's initial capability to comply with the emission 
standard, and note the operating conditions under which compliance was 
achieved.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's 
regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter 15. The 
Federal Register document required under 5 CFR 1320.8(d), soliciting 
comments on this collection of information was published on January 5, 
1999 , 64 FR 499; no comments were received.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average .13 
hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial 
resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or 
disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This 
includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, 
install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of 
collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and 
maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; 
adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable 
instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to respond to 
a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review 
the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the 
information.
    Respondents/Affected Entities: Owners and Operators of Bulk 
Gasoline Terminals.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 40.
    Frequency of Response: Initial.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 11,420 hours.
    Estimated Total Annualized Capital and Operations and Maintenance 
Cost Burden: 0.
    Send comments on the Agency's need for this information, the 
accuracy of the provided burden estimates, and any suggested methods 
for minimizing respondent burden, including through the use of 
automated collection techniques to the following addresses. Please 
refer to EPA ICR No. 0664.06 and OMB Control No.2060-0006 in any 
correspondence.
