    Title: NESHAP for Wet-Formed Fiberglass Mat Production (Renewal).
    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1964.04, OMB Control Number 2060-0496.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on March 31, 2009. 
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 and 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: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Wet-Formed Fiberglass Mat Production were 
proposed on May 26, 2000 (65 FR 34251), and promulgated on April 11, 
2002 (67 FR 17823). These standards apply to new and existing component 
processes at industrial facilities that manufacture wet-formed 
fiberglass mat including preparation of glass fibers, formation of 
fibers into a fiberglass mat, saturation with urea-formaldehyde binder 
solution, curing and drying the binder-coated fiberglass mat, cooling 
the mat, and trimming, cutting, and packaging.
    The monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements outlined 
in these rules are similar to those required for other NESHAP 
regulations. Consistent with the NESHAP General Provisions (40 CFR part 
63, subpart A), respondents are required to submit initial 
notifications, conduct performance tests, and submit semiannual 
reports. They are also required to maintain records of applicability 
determinations; performance test results; exceedances; periods of 
startup, shutdown, or malfunction; monitoring records; and all other 
information needed to determined compliance with the applicable 
standard.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping 
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 61 
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: Wet-formed fiberglass mat production 
facilities.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 14.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, semiannually, and 
annually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 1,966.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $158,672 in annual labor costs and $0 
annualized capital or O&M costs.

    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the total estimated 
burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR 
Burdens.
