    Abstract: Respondents are owners and operators of pesticides active 
ingredient production operations. Respondents must submit one-time 
reports of initial compliance and either semiannual reports or 
quarterly reports of compliance. Recordkeeping of parameters related to 
process and air pollution control technologies is required. The reports 
and records will be used to demonstrate compliance with the standards.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Owners and operators of pesticides 
active ingredient production operations.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart MMM).
    Estimated number of respondents: 18 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, quarterly, and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 12,000 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $1,416,000 (per year), includes $236,000 
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment decrease in the 
number of responses because this ICR removes leak detection and repair 
(LDAR) reports. The regulation requires subject sources to include LDAR 
information in periodic (i.e. semiannual or quarterly) reports. LDAR is 
not separately reported to EPA; therefore, no additional responses are 
associated with this activity.
