    Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional 
Boilers and Process Heaters apply to existing and new industrial, 
commercial, and institutional boilers and process heaters located at 
major sources of HAP. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial 
notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/
operators of the affected facilities. They 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. These 
notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining 
compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to 
NESHAP. Any owner/operator subject to the provisions of this part shall 
maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at least 
five 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.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Owners and operators of industrial, 
commercial, and institutional boilers and process heaters.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR Part 63, 
Subpart DDDDD).
    Estimated number of respondents: 1,778 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, semiannually, annually, and 
biennially.
    Total estimated burden: 492,702 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $155,628,678 (per year), which includes 
$108,235,205 in both annualized capital and operation & maintenance 
costs combined.
