conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission 
is pending at OMB. 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 in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the 
Federal Register when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, are 
displayed either by publication in the Federal Register or by other 
appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or 
form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA 
regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.
    Abstract: Respondents are owners or operators of beverage can 
surface coating facilities. These standards apply to each beverage can 
surface coating operation in which organic coatings are applied 
(exterior base coat operations, over varnish coating operations, and 
inside spray coating operations) that commenced construction, 
modification or reconstruction after November 26, 1980. Owners or 
operators of the affected facilities described must make initial 
reports when a source becomes subject to the standards, conduct and 
report on a performance test, demonstrate and report on continuous 
monitor performance, and maintain records of the occurrence and 
duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of 
an affected facility. Semiannual reports of excess emissions are 
required. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in 
determining compliance; and are required, in general, of all sources 
subject to New Source Performance Standards (NSPS).
    Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part shall 
maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at least 
two years following the date of such measurements, maintenance 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.
    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 in 40 CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9 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 43 
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 which have subsequently changed; 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 beverage can 
surface coating facilities.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 48.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, Semiannually, On Occasion.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 5,134.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $515,230, which includes $0 capital/
startup costs. $100,800 annual O&M costs, and $414,430 annual labor 
costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 492 hours in the 
total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved ICR Burdens. This increase is due to an expansion of the 
calculations to include managerial and clerical labor rates. The 
increase in O&M costs is due to an increase in equipment maintenance 
costs.
