    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 61, subpart A, as well as the 
specific requirements at 40 CFR part 61, subpart C. 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 these standards.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Facilities processing beryllium and 
its derivatives.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 61, 
subpart C).
    Estimated number of respondents: 33 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, and monthly.
    Total estimated burden: 2,670 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $310,000 (per year), which includes $35,000 
in either annualized capital/startup or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the 
respondent burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved Burdens. This increase is not due to any program changes. The 
change in labor hour and cost estimates occurred because of a change in 
assumption. This ICR assumes all existing sources will have to re-
familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.

Director, Regulatory Support Division.
