    Abstract: The affected entities are subject to the General 
Provisions of the NSPS at 40 CFR part 60, subpart A and any changes, or 
additions to the Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 60, subpart Ec. 
Owners or operators of the affected facilities must make an initial 
notification, performance tests, periodic reports, and 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.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Hospital/medical/infectious waste 
incinerators.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart Ec).
    Estimated number of respondents: 8 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, semiannually and 
annually.
    Total estimated burden: 5,670 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $972,000 (per year), includes $402,000 
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the estimates: There is an overall increase in burden in 
this ICR from the most recently approved ICR. This is due to an 
increase in the estimated number of sources subject to the regulation, 
and is not caused by

[[Page 14442]]

program changes. We estimate the industry will continue to grow at the 
rate of one new source per year. This results in increases in the 
respondent labor hours, number of responses, and capital/O&M costs.

Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division.
