Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB 
Review; Comment Request; Standards of Performance for New Stationary 
Sources (NSPS) Wool Fiberglass Insulation Manufacturing and National 
Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP)--Maximum 
Achievable Control Technology (MACT) for Source Categories Wool 
Fiberglass Manufacturing Plants

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 
et seq.), this document announces that the following Information 
Collection Request (ICR) has been forwarded to the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) for review and approval: Combined ICR for NSPS, 
Standards of Performance for New Stationary Sources, Wool Fiberglass 
Insulation Manufacturing, 40 CFR part 60, subpart PPP, expiration date 
8/31/00; and NESHAP-MACT for Wool

[[Page 33318]]

Manufacturing, 40 CFR part 63, subpart NNN, expiration date 8/31/00. 
For identification purposes, this combined ICR will continue to use OMB 
Control Number 2060-0114 and EPA ICR No. 1160.06, which formerly was 
applicable to NSPS, subpart PPP. OMB Control Number 2060-0359 and EPA 
ICR Number 1795.01 had been used for NESHAP-MACT Subpart NNN and will 
no longer be valid. This ICR describes the nature of the information 
collection and its expected burden and cost; where appropriate, it 
includes the actual data collection instrument.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before June 22, 2000.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For a copy of the ICR contact Sandy 
Farmer at EPA by phone at (202) 260-2740, by E-Mail at Farmer.Sandy 
@epamail.epa.gov or download off the Internet at http://www.epa.gov/icr 
and refer to EPA ICR No. 1160.06. For technical questions about the ICR

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title: NSPS Subpart PPP, Standards of Performance for New 
Stationary Sources--Wool Fiberglass Insulation Manufacturing and 
NESHAP-MACT Subpart NNN, National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants--Wool Fiberglass Manufacturing, OMB Control Number 2060-
0114, EPA ICR No. 1160.06. This is a request for extension of two 
currently approved collections which will be combined into one 
collection.
    Abstract: Plants subject to NSPS Subpart PPP and/or NESHAP-MACT 
Subpart NNN must provide notifications to EPA of construction, 
modification, startups, shut downs, date and results of initial 
performance tests and provide semiannual reports of excess emissions. 
Owners/operators of wool fiberglass manufacturing facilities subject to 
NSPS Subpart PPP and/or NESHAP-MACT, Subpart NNN must also record 
continuous measurements of control device operating parameters.
    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 October 29, 
1999 for NSPS Subpart PPP and January 21, 2000 for NESHAP-MACT Subpart 
NNN in Federal Register. No comments were received.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for the collection of information for these two standards on 
existing wool fiberglass manufacturing facilities is estimated to 
average 149 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: Wool Fiberglass Insulation 
Manufacturing Plants for NSPS, Subpart PPP and/or Wool Fiberglass 
Manufacturing Plants for NESHAP-MACT Subpart NNN
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 29.
    Frequency of Response: Initial and semiannual.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 19,098
    Estimated Total Annualized Capital and Operating & Maintenance Cost 
Burden: $496,000.
    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. 1160.06 and OMB Control No. 2060-0114 in any 
correspondence.
