    Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Hot Mix 
Asphalt Facilities (40 CFR part 60, subpart I) apply to hot mix asphalt 
facilities that commenced construction or modification after June 11, 
1973. A hot mix asphalt facility is comprised only of any combination 
of the following: Dryers; systems for screening, handling, storing, and 
weighing hot aggregate; systems for loading, transferring, and storing 
mineral filler; systems for mixing hot mix asphalt; and the loading, 
transfer, and storage systems associated with emission control systems. 
In general, all NSPS 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 60, 
subpart I.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Hot mix asphalt facilities.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart I).
    Estimated number of respondents: 4,955 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially.
    Total estimated burden: 25,000 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $2,620,000 (per year), which includes $0 
annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the 
estimated burden and number of responses as currently identified in the 
OMB

[[Page 54748]]

Inventory of Approved Burdens. The change in burden occurred because 
the number of respondents, subject to these standards, has increased 
since the last ICR renewal period. In addition, this ICR assumes all 
existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory 
requirements each year.

Director, Regulatory Support Division.
