    Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Inorganic Arsenic Emissions from Primary Copper 
Smelters (40 CFR part 61, subpart O) apply to existing facilities and 
new facilities where the total arsenic charging rate for the copper 
converter department averaged over a 1-year period is greater than 75 
kg/hr (165 lb/hr), as determined under 40 CFR 61.174(f). New facilities 
include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the 
date of proposal. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial 
notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/
operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to 
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. These 
notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining 
compliance with 40 CFR part 61, subpart O.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Owners and operators of primary 
copper smelter facilities.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory.
    Estimated number of respondents: 3 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, quarterly, and annually.
    Total estimated burden: 2,380 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $263,000 (per year), which includes $1,500 in 
annualized capital/setup and/or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: This is a reinstatement of a previously 
approved collection. There is an adjustment decrease in the total 
estimated burden and cost previously identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved Burdens. This decrease is due to a decrease in the number of 
sources.
