Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Flexible Polyurethane Foam Product (40 CFR part 63, subpart III) apply to owners or operators of both new and existing facilities that engage in the manufacture of flexible polyurethane foam products which emit hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). This includes facilities making slabstock flexible polyurethane foam (slabstock foam), rebond flexible polyurethane foam (rebond foam), and/or molded flexible polyurethane foam (molded foam). In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. Owners or operators of flexible polyurethane foam production facilities to which this rule is applicable must choose one of the compliance options described in these standards or reduce HAP emissions to below the compliance level. Specifically, the rule requirements for slabstock foam producers include an initial notification, notification of compliance status, semiannual reports and annual compliance certifications. The rule requirements for molded and rebond foam producers include a notification of compliance status report and an annual compliance certification. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart III. Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Manufacturers of flexible polyurethane foam products. Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart III). Estimated number of respondents: 12 (total). Frequency of response: Initially, annually, and semiannually. Total estimated burden: 869 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). Total estimated cost: $94,700 (per year), includes which $0 for annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment decrease in the total estimated burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. The decrease is not due to any program changes. The change in burden hours and number of responses is a result of removing burden for reconstructed sources as no [[Page 3155]] reconstructed sources are expected to occur during this ICR renewal period.
