SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title: NESHAP for Marine Vessel Loading Operations (Subpart Y); ICR 
No.1679.04; OMB Control Number 2060-0289, expiration date February 28, 
2002. This is a request for extension of a currently approved

    Abstract: This collection is for record keeping and periodic 
reporting information to EPA Regional Offices and delegated states. The 
information concerns compliance information for the emissions relating 
to loading of

[[Page 9972]]

marine tank vessels with petroleum and gasoline. Delegated states and 
EPA Regional Offices use the data to determine compliance with the 
NESHAP rule. The purpose is to assure compliance with emission 
requirements in 40 CFR part 63, subpart Y. In general, records will be 
stored on site and shown to inspectors when requested. These will be 
hard copy records for the most part. Other information for periodic 
reports are sent to the state or to the Regional Office. It will cost 
105 facilities, a total of 28,131 hours each year at a total cost of 
$1,535,817.
    Under sections 40 CFR part 63, subpart Y, information collection is 
mandatory, not voluntary. All information submitted to EPA for which a 
claim of confidentiality is made will be safeguarded according to the 
Agency policies set forth in 40 CFR part 2, subpart B--Confidentiality 
of Business Information.
    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 August 17, 
2001 (66 FR 43253); no comments were received.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 32 
hours to prepare excess emissions. 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 previous 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 Marine Tank 
Vessel Loading Operations.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 105.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 28,131 hours per year.
    Estimated Total Annualized Capital, O&M 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 addresses listed above. Please
