    Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Plating and Polishing Area Sources regulations 
apply to respondents that are plating and polishing facilities engaged 
in any of the following processes: Non-chromium electroplating; 
electroless or non-electrolytic plating; other non-electrolytic metal 
coating processes such as chromate conversion coating, nickel acetate 
sealing, sodium dichromate sealing, manganese phosphate coating, 
thermal spraying; dry mechanical polishing of finished metals and 
formed products after plating or thermal spraying, electroforming, and 
electro-polishing. New facilities include those that commenced 
construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. The required 
annual reports are used to determine periods of excess emissions, 
identify problems at the facility, verify operation/maintenance 
procedures and for compliance determinations. This information is also 
collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart WWWWWW.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Owners and operators of plating and 
polishing facilities.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart WWWWWW).
    Estimated number of respondents: 2,900 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially and annually.
    Total estimated burden: 64,315 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $6,304,966 (per year), which includes $8,314 
in annualized capital/start-up costs and 0 in operation & maintenance 
costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 31,208 hours in 
the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently 
approved by OMB. The change in burden and cost estimates occurred as a 
result of updating the burden tables to accurately reflect the 
reporting and recordkeeping requirements of the rule.
