    Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Marine Tank Vessel Loading Operations (40 CFR 
part 63, subpart Y) establishes Maximum Achievable Control Technology 
(MACT) standards for existing facilities and new facilities that load 
marine tank vessels with petroleum or gasoline. These facilities have 
aggregate actual hazardous air pollutants (HAP) emissions of 10 tons or 
more of each individual HAP, or 25 tons or more of all HAP combined. 
This NESHAP regulation also established reasonably-available control 
technology (RACT) standards to such facilities with an annual 
throughput of 10 million or more barrels of gasoline or 200 million or 
more barrels of crude oil. This information is being collected to 
assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart Y.
    In general, all NESHAP 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, and are required of 
all affected facilities subject to NESHAP.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Owners or operators of marine tank 
vessel loading operations.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart Y).
    Estimated number of respondents: 804 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 10,700 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $1,260,000 (per year), which includes $0 for 
annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in burden from the 
most-recently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory 
of Approved Burdens. 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 this industry is very low or non-existent, so there is no 
significant change in the overall burden. Since there are no changes in 
the regulatory requirements and there is no significant industry 
growth, there are also no changes in the capital/startup and/or 
operation and maintenance (O&M) costs.
