    Title: NESHAP for Automobile and Light-duty Truck Surface Coating 
(Renewal).
    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 2045.04, OMB Control Number 2060-0550.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on October 31, 2010. 
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 Automobile and Light-duty Truck Surface Coating 
(40 CFR Part 63, Subpart IIII) were proposed on December 24, 2002, and 
promulgated on April 26, 2004. These standards apply to facilities in 
automobile and light-duty truck surface coating operations that are 
major sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAP). Owners or operators of 
the affected facilities described must make initial reports when a 
source becomes subject to the standard, 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. In general, all NESHAP requires initial notifications, 
performance tests, and periodic reports.
    These notifications, reports, and records are essential in 
determining compliance, and in general, are required of all sources 
subject to NESHAP. Semiannual reports of excess emissions are also 
required.
    Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part shall 
maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the records for at 
least five years following the date of such measurements, maintenance 
reports, and records. Performance tests reports are required as this is 
the Agency's record of a source's initial capability to comply with the 
emission standard, and serve as a record of the operating conditions 
under which compliance was achieved.
    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 IIII, 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 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 Number for EPA 
regulations listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15, 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 91 
hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial 
resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or 
disclose, and 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. All 
existing ways will have to adjust to comply with any previously 
applicable instructions and requirements that 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: Automobile and light-duty truck 
surface coating facilities.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 65.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, semiannually, and occasionally.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 25,190.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $2,321,787 which includes $2,243,787 
in labor costs, no capital/startup costs, and $78,000 in operation and 
maintenance (O&M) costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the labor hours or 
cost in this ICR compared to the previous ICR. This is due to two 
considerations: (1) The regulations have not changed over the past 
three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three 
years; and (2) the growth rate for the industry is very low, negative 
or non-existent. Therefore, there is no significant change in the 
overall burden.
    Since there are no changes in the regulatory requirements and there 
is no significant industry growth, the labor hours and cost figures in 
the previous ICR are used in this ICR, and there is no change in burden 
to industry.
