    Abstract: Owners and operators of affected facilities are required 
to comply with reporting and recordkeeping requirements for the General 
Provisions (40 CFR part 63, subpart A), as well as for the specific 
standard (40 CFR part 63, subpart FFFFF). This includes submitting 
initial notification reports, performance tests, periodic reports and 
results, and maintaining 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 reports are used by EPA to determine compliance with 
the standards.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Integrated iron and steel plants.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart FFFFF).
    Estimated number of respondents: 18 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 18,500 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $1,930,000 (per year), which includes $67,000 
in either annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance 
costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: The increase in respondent labor burden 
from the most-recently approved ICR is due to an adjustment. In this 
ICR, we assume all existing respondents will take some time to re-
familiarize with the regulatory requirement. This assumption results in 
a small increase in labor hours and costs. The respondent labor costs 
also increased due to use of more updated labor rates. The total 
estimated cost, including capital and O&M costs, have also been rounded 
to three significant figures. The rounding results in a small apparent 
decrease in the total O&M cost.
