    Abstract: Owners and operators of affected facilities are required 
to comply with reporting and record keeping requirements for the 
general provisions of 40 CFR part 63, subpart A, as well as the 
specific requirements at 40 CFR part 63, subpart NNNNN. This includes 
submitting initial notifications, performance tests and periodic 
reports and results, and maintaining 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 reports are used by EPA to determine compliance 
with the standards.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Hydrochloric acid production 
facilities.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart NNNNN).
    Estimated number of respondents: 87 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 113,000 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $12,200,000(per year), includes $754,000 
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase in burden hours to 
the respondent as compared to the most recently approved ICR. The 
increase is due to industry growth in the past three years, resulting 
in additional number of respondents that are subject to this standard. 
The growth in respondent universe also results in an increase in the 
number of responses and total O&M costs. In addition, there is an 
increase in burden costs to both the respondent and the Agency due to 
an adjustment in labor rates. This ICR uses the most recent labor rates 
from the Bureau of Labor Statistics in calculating the labor costs.
