    Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Beverage 
Can Surface Coating (40 CFR part 60, subpart WW) apply to each 
operation of the following surface coating lines in the Beverage Can 
Surface Coating industry: (1) Exterior base; (2) over-varnished; and 
(3) inside spray. New facilities include those that commenced 
construction, modification, or reconstruction after the date of 
proposal. In general, all NSPS 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 with 40 CFR part 60, 
subpart WW.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/Affected Entities: Beverage can surface coating 
facilities.
    Respondent's Obligation to Respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart WW).
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 48 (total).
    Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
    Total Estimated Burden: 5,190 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total Estimated Cost: $669,000 (per year), which includes $101,000 
in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in the labor hours in 
this ICR compared to the previous ICR. This is due to two 
considerations: (1) The regulations have not changed over the past 
three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three 
years; and (2) the growth rate for the industry is very low, negative 
or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall 
burden.

Director, Regulatory Support Division.
