number for the Docket Center is 202-566-1744. For additional 
information about EPA's public docket, visit: http://www.epa.gov/dockets.
    Abstract: Owners and operators of affected facilities are required 
to comply with reporting and recordkeeping 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 FFF. 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 
these standards.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/Affected Entities: Flexible vinyl and urethane coating 
and printing facilities.
    Respondent's Obligation to Respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart FFF).
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 25 (total).
    Frequency of Response: Initially and semiannually.
    Total Estimated Burden: 848 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 
5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total Estimated Cost: $320,000 (per year), which includes $232,000 
in both annualized capital/startup and operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the 
respondent burden and cost, including total O&M cost, in this ICR. This 
is not due to program changes; rather, it is due to an increase of one 
additional source being subject to these regulations since the last ICR 
renewal period. In addition, this ICR assumes all existing sources will 
need to re-familiarize themselves with the regulation each year. This 
change in assumption also contributes to an increase in the labor hours 
and costs.
