    Title: NSPS for Large Appliance Surface Coating.
    ICR numbers: EPA ICR Number 0659.10, OMB Control Number 2060-0108.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2006. Under 
OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to 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 large appliance 
surface coating facilities. These standards apply to each large 
appliance surface coating operation in which organic coatings are 
applied, that commenced construction, modification or reconstruction 
after December 24, 1980. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are the 
pollutants regulated under this subpart. Owners or operators of the 
affected facilities described must make initial reports when a source 
becomes subject, 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

[[Page 39111]]

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 request for 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 53 
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 large 
appliance surface coating facilities.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 72.
    Frequency of Response: Initial, Semiannually, On Occasion, 
Initially.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 7,659.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $8,400 includes no capital/startup 
costs and $8,400 annualized O&M costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 1,371 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.
