    Abstract: The affected entities are subject to the General 
Provisions of the NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A, and any changes, 
or additions to the General Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, 
subpart DDDDDD. Owners or operators of the affected facilities must 
submit a one-time-only of any physical or operational changes, initial 
performance tests, and periodic reports and results. Owners or 
operators 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. Reports are also required semiannually.

[[Page 37247]]

    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Polyvinyl chloride and copolymer 
production area source facilities.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart DDDDDD).
    Estimated number of respondents: 3 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, semiannually and annually.
    Total estimated burden: 69,200 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $7,770,000 (per year), includes $806,000 
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the 
estimated burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved Burdens. In consulting with the Vinyl Institute during the 
renewal of this ICR, EPA received comprehensive comments on the burden 
associated with specific reporting and recordkeeping requirements, 
including, but not limited to, performance test, monitor installation, 
resin and wastewater sampling, equipment leak and process vent 
monitoring. We have updated the burden items to more accurately reflect 
the costs incurred by the industry. The update results in a substantial 
increase in the respondent labor hours, labor costs, and capital/O&M 
costs. There is also a small increase in the number of responses as we 
have updated the number of subject area sources from two to three based 
on data provided by the Vinyl Institute.

Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division.
