    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 60, subpart A, as well as for the 
specific requirements at 40 CFR part 60, subpart KKKK. This includes 
submitting initial notification reports, 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: Stationary combustion turbines.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart KKKK).
    Estimated number of respondents: 589 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 59,000 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $5,930,000 (per year). There are no 
annualized capital/startup or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment increase in burden 
hours and costs for both the respondents and the Agency as currently 
identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. It should be noted 
that the increase is not due to any program changes. The increase is 
due to an adjustment in labor rates and in the number of new or 
modified sources. This ICR uses updated labor rates from the Bureau of 
Labor Statistics to calculate burden costs. Additionally, this ICR 
assumes the respondent universe subject to the regulation has continued 
to grow at a constant rate since the last ICR renewal.
