    Title: NESHAP for Metal Coil Surface Coating Plants (Renewal).
    Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP), for Metal Coil Surface Coating Plants were 
proposed on July 18, 2000 (65 FR 44616), and promulgated on June 10, 
2002 (67 FR 39812) and amended on March 17, 2003 (68 FR 12592). These 
standards apply to each facility that is a major source of hazardous 
air pollutant (HAP), at which a coil coating line is operated. This 
coating line is used to coat metal coil of thicknesses both less than 
and greater than or equal to 0.15 millimeters (0.006 inches) thick.
    Owners or operators must submit notification reports upon 
construction or reconstruction of any metal coil surface coating plant. 
Semiannual reports for periods of operation during which the emission 
limitation is exceeded (or reports certifying that no exceedances have 
occurred) also are required. Records and reports will be required to be 
retained for a total of five years.
    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.
    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 119 
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 or operators of metal coil 
surface coating plants.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 89.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, annually, semiannually, weekly, 
and occasionally.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 19,901 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Costs: $1,592,013, which includes $0 
annualized capital/startup cost and $3,648 O&M costs and $1,588,365 in 
Respondent Labor costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 5,147 hours as 
compared to the active ICR. The reason for this decrease in labor hours 
is due to the fact that there are no new or reconstructed sources in 
this renewal that would require reporting requirements associated with 
this standard.
    There is also a significant reduction in the cost burden due to a 
reduction in the capital/startup costs because monitors do not have to 
be purchased. However, the cost to operate and maintain (O&M) those 
monitors continues from year to year.

    Dated: July 18, 2005.

Director, Collection Strategies Division.
