    Abstract: Owners and operators of affected facilities are required 
to comply with reporting and record keeping requirements for the 
general provisions of 40 CFR part 63, subpart A, as well as the 
specific requirements at 40 CFR part 63, subpart ZZZZZZ. This includes 
submitting initial notifications, performance tests and 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: Aluminum, copper, and other non-
ferrous foundries.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart ZZZZZZ).
    Estimated number of respondents: 318 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 11,900 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $1,200,000 (per year), includes $0 annualized 
capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase in the respondent 
labor hours in this ICR compared to the previous ICR. This is due to 
assuming all sources

will have to re-familiarize with regulatory requirements each year. 
This also results in an increase in labor costs for the respondents. In 
addition, there is an increase in labor costs for both the respondents 
and the Agency due to an increase in labor rates.
