    Title: NESHAP for Magnetic Tape Manufacturing Operations (Renewal).
    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 1678.08, OMB Control Number 2060-0326.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2013. Under 
OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to either conduct or sponsor 
the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB.
    Abstract: The affected entities are subject to the General 
Provisions of the NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A, and any changes, 
or additions to the Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, subpart EE.
    Owners or operators of the affected facilities must submit initial 
notification, performance tests, and periodic reports and results. 
Owners or operators are also required to maintain records of the 
occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the 
operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the 
monitoring system is inoperative. Reports are required semiannually at 
a minimum.
    Respondents/Affected Entities: Magnetic tape manufacturing 
operations.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 6.
    Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, quarterly, 
semiannually and annually.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 3,905. ``Burden'' is defined at 
5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $425,110, which includes $378,110 in 
labor costs, $11,000 in capital/startup costs, and $36,000 in operation 
and maintenance (O&M) costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: The increase in burden from the most 
recently-approved ICR is due to an adjustment in labor rates and 
updated assumptions used to estimate technical hours per year. This ICR 
uses updated labor rates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics to 
calculate burden costs.
    In addition to updated labor rates, there is an update to the 
assumptions used to estimate technical hours per year for the 
calculated burden costs. In the previous ICR, it was assumed that the 
per respondent burden hour for each activity accounts for technical, 
managerial, and clerical hours. In order to have consistency in the 
burden calculations in the ICR renewal process, this ICR assumes the 
per respondent burden hour accounts for technical hours only. This 
results in a slight increase in burden hours and costs for both the 
respondents and the Agency.
