    Title: NESHAP for Aerospace Manufacturing and Rework Facilities (40 
CFR part 63, subpart GG) (Renewal).
    Abstract: This National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) requires initial notification, performance tests, 
and periodic reports. Owners or operators also are required to maintain 
records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or 
malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period 
during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, 
reports, and records are essential in determining compliance and are 
required, in general, of all sources subject to NESHAP.
    Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part shall 
maintain a file of these documents, and retain the file for at least 
five years following the date of such notifications, reports, and 
records. 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. This information 
is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart GG 
as authorized in sections 112 and 114(a) of the Clean Air Act. The 
required information consists of emissions data and other information 
that have been determined not to be private.
    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, and are 
identified on the form and/or instrument, if applicable.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 297 
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; to 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; to 
adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable 
instructions and requirements; to train personnel to be able to respond 
to a collection of information; to search data sources; to complete and 
review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise 
disclose the information.
    Respondents/Affected Entities: Aerospace manufacturing and rework 
facilities.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 136.
    Frequency of Response: Initial, Quarterly, Semiannually, On 
Occasion.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 141,645 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Costs: $9,096,770, which includes $0 
annualized capital/startup costs, $136,000 annual O&M costs, and 
$8,960,770 annual labor costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 3,595,755 hours in 
the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved ICR Burdens. This decrease is due to a reduction in annual 
burden due to an improved estimate of the number of facilities and a 
decrease in annual per person training burden.

    Dated: April 1, 2004.

Director, Collection Strategies Division.
