The Consolidated Air Rule (CAR) for the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI) (Renewal)

1.  Identification of the Information Collection

      1(a)  Title of the Information Collection

The Consolidated Air Rule (CAR) for the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI) (Renewal), EPA ICR Number 1854.09, OMB Control Number 2060-0443.

      1(b)  Short Characterization/Abstract

	The Consolidated Federal Air Rule (CAR) for the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI) at 40 CFR part 65 was promulgated on December 14, 2000.  The CAR is an optional alternative compliance approach for plant sites that must comply with existing subparts in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR).  The CAR is a consolidation of major portions of 14 different New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) and National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) pertaining to storage vessels, process vents, transfer racks, equipment leaks, and the general provisions for the three applicable parts (40 CFR parts 60, 61, and 63).  These subparts from 40 CFR parts 60, 61, and 63 are referred to as "referencing subparts" because they have been amended to refer to the CAR as a compliance alternative.  The referencing subparts include 40 CFR part 60, subparts Ka, Kb, VV, VVa, DDD, III, NNN, and RRR; 40 CFR part 61, subparts BB, Y, and V; 40 CFR part 63, subparts F, G, H, and I.

      This information collection request (ICR) is for the CAR and its referencing subparts.  The burden estimates in this ICR reflect the addition of the Direct Final Rule for Revisions to the CAR (72 FR 48938; August 27, 2007); other burden estimates are consistent with the most recently approved ICR for the CAR.  This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 65.

	Compliance with the CAR is a voluntary alternative.  Sources may continue to comply with existing applicable rules or may choose to comply with the consolidated rule.  All existing sources must be in compliance with the requirements of the CAR and/or its referencing subparts within three years of the effective date (i.e., promulgation date) of the appropriate standard for the affected source.  All new sources must be in compliance with the requirements of the CAR and/or its referencing subparts upon startup or the promulgation date of standards for an affected source, whichever is later.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      When preparing renewals for the CAR, or the referencing subparts, estimates are made of the percentage of existing sources that will opt to comply with the CAR in lieu of the referencing subparts.  It is estimated that 25 percent of non-Hazardous Organic NESHAP (HON) sources will opt to comply with the CAR if the per-source burden of complying with the CAR is less than the per-source burden of complying with the referencing subpart.  For those referencing subparts for which the per-source burden of complying with the CAR is higher than the per-source burden of complying with the referencing subpart (subparts Ka, Kb, Y, VV, VVa, III, NNN, RRR, and DDD), it is estimated that 5 percent of sources will opt to comply with the CAR.  It is assumed that all new sources will initially comply with the appropriate referencing subpart.  Based on these assumptions, we estimate the consolidated collection will involve 4,618 respondents.  The number of respondents under each referencing subpart that will opt to comply with the CAR is detailed in Table 4: Estimated Number of Sources Subject to Referencing Subparts that Will Opt to comply with the CAR.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approved the currently active ICR without any "Terms of Clearance."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
	The "Affected Public" are owners or operators of synthetic organic chemical manufacturing facilities.  The "burden" to the Affected Public may be found below in Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR.  The "burden" to the "Federal Government" is attributed entirely to work performed by either Federal employees or government contractors and also may be found below in Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR.

                        The CAR (Consolidated Air Rule)

      In general, the NSPS, NESHAP, CAR, and maximum achievable control technology (MACT) standards require initial notification reports, 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, and are required of all affected facilities subject to the standard.

      The Direct Final Rule for Revisions to the CAR includes direct final amendments to the General Provisions of the CAR which allow source owners and operators to petition the Administrator for an extension of the regulatory deadline to conduct performance tests during force majeure events.  A force majeure event is an event caused by circumstances beyond the control of the affected facility, its contractors, or any entity controlled by the affected facility that resulted in not meeting the regulatory requirement to conduct performance tests within the specified timeframe despite the affected facility's best efforts to fulfill the obligation.  Examples of such events are acts of nature, acts of war, terrorism, equipment failure, or safety hazard beyond the control of the affected facility.  The source owner or operator must provide to the Administrator a written description of the event and a rationale for attributing the delay in testing beyond the regulatory deadline to the force majeure; describe the measures taken or to be taken to minimize the delay; and identify a date by which the performance test would be conducted.

            NSPS subpart Ka: Storage Vessels for Petroleum Liquids

      The NSPS for subpart Ka were proposed on May 18, 1978, and promulgated on April 4, 1980, and was last amended on December 14, 2000.

         NSPS subpart RRR: VOC Emissions from SOCMI Reactor Processes

      The NSPS for the synthetic organic chemical manufacturing industry (SOCMI) Reactor Processes were proposed on June 29, 1990, and promulgated on August 31, 1993, and was last- amended on December 14, 2000.  These standards apply to affected facilities commencing construction, modification or reconstruction after the date of proposal: (1) Each reactor process not discharging its vent stream into a recovery system; (2) Each combination of a reactor processes and the recovery system into which its vent stream is discharged; (3) Each combination of two or more reactor processes and the common recovery system into which their vent streams are discharged.  The standard applies to affected facilities producing one or more of the chemicals listed in §60.707 as a product, co-product, by-product, or intermediate.  The regulated pollutants are VOC.  This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 60, subpart RRR.

     NESHAP subpart BB: Benzene Emissions from Benzene Transfer Operations

      The National Emission Standards for Benzene Emissions from Benzene Transfer Operations were proposed on September 14, 1989, and promulgated on March 7, 1990, and was last-amended on December 14, 2000.  The affected facility to which this subpart applies is the total of all loading racks handling a liquid containing 70 weight-percent or more benzene, at which benzene is loaded into tank trucks, railcars, or marine vessels at each benzene production facility and each bulk terminal.  However, specifically exempted from this regulation are loading racks at which only the following are loaded: benzene-laden waste (covered under subpart FF of part 61), gasoline, crude oil, natural gas liquids, petroleum distillates (i.e., fuel oil, diesel, or kerosene), or benzene-laden liquid from coke by-product recovery plants.  In addition, any affected facility which loads only liquid containing less than 70 weight-percent benzene or whose annual benzene loading is less than 1.3 million liters of 70 weight-percent or more benzene is exempt from the control requirements except for the recordkeeping and reporting requirements in §61.305(i).  Marine vessels were given a one-year industry wide waiver of compliance, which was later extended to July 23, 1991, in order to allow for concurrent compliance with United States Coast Guard regulations.  The regulated pollutant is benzene.  This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 61, subpart BB.

       NESHAP subpart Y: Benzene Emissions from Benzene Storage Vessels

      The NESHAP for Benzene Emissions from Storage Vessels were proposed in 1980, and re-promulgated in 1989 (54 FR 38077) as 40 CFR part 61, subpart Y, and was last-amended on December 14, 2000.  Entities affected by this action are those owners and operators of benzene storage vessels that store benzene having a specific gravity within the range of specific gravities as specified in ASTM D 4734-98 for Refined Benzene-545.  Storage vessels with a design storage capacity less than 38 cubic meters (10,000 gallons) are exempt from the provisions of the subpart.  Similarly, storage vessels used for storing benzene at coke by-product facilities or vessels permanently attached to motor vehicles, such as trucks, rail cars, barges, ships, or pressure vessels designed to operate in excess of 204.9 kPa and without emissions to the atmosphere, are also exempt from this subpart.  The regulated pollutant is benzene.  This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 61, subpart Y.

NESHAP subpart V: National Emission Standard for Equipment Leaks (Fugitive Emission Sources)

      The NESHAP for National Emission Standard for Equipment Leaks (Fugitive Emission Sources) was promulgated on June 6, 1984 (49 FR 23573), and was last-amended on December 14, 2000.  Affected facilities include the following sources that are intended to operate in volatile hazardous air pollutant (HAP) service: pumps, compressors, pressure relief devices, sampling connection systems, open-ended valves or lines, valves, flanges and other connectors, product accumulator vessels, and control devices or systems.  The standards for this subpart are leak detection and repair (LDAR).  The regulated pollutants are volatile HAPs.  This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 61, subpart V.

                    NESHAP subparts F, G, H, and I: The HON

      The MACT standards for the HON were proposed on December 31, 1992, and promulgated on April 22, 1994.  These standards apply to chemical manufacturing process units (CMPU's) in the SOCMI industries, which manufacture as a primary product one or more of the chemicals listed in Table 1 of 40 CFR part 63, subpart F; use as a reactant or manufacture as a product, by-product, or co-product, one or more of the organic HAPs listed in Table 2 of subpart F; and are located at a plant site that is a major source as defined in section 112(a) of the Act.  Additionally, styrene-butadiene rubber production, pesticide production, polybutadiene production, chlorinated hydrocarbon use in the production of chemicals, pharmaceutical production, and miscellaneous butadiene use are subject to the negotiated regulations affecting equipment leaks promulgated under subpart I.  The emission points include transfer racks, storage tanks, wastewater systems, process vents and equipment leaks.  The regulations apply to existing sources as well as new sources commencing construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal.  Hazardous air pollutants are the pollutants regulated under these subparts. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subparts F, G, H, and I.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.  Need for and Use of the Collection
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      2(a)  Need/Authority for the Collection
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The EPA is charged under Section 111 of the Clean Air Act (CAA), as amended, to establish standards of performance for new stationary sources that reflect:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            . . . application of the best technological system of continuous emissions reduction which (taking into consideration the cost of achieving such emissions reduction, or any non-air quality health and environmental impact and energy requirements) the Administrator determines has been adequately demonstrated.  Section 111(a)(l).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Agency refers to this charge as selecting the best demonstrated technology (BDT).  Section 111 also requires that the Administrator review and, if appropriate, revise such standards every four years.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The EPA also is charged under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act, as amended, to establish standards of performance for each category or subcategory of major sources and area sources of hazardous air pollutants.  These standards are applicable to new or existing sources of hazardous air pollutants and shall require the maximum degree of emission reduction.  In addition, section 114(a) states that the Administrator may require any owner/operator subject to any requirement of this Act to:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (A) Establish and maintain such records; (B) make such reports; (C) install, use, and maintain such monitoring equipment, and use such audit procedures, or methods; (D) sample such emissions (in accordance with such procedures or methods, at such locations, at such intervals, during such periods, and in such manner as the Administrator shall prescribe); (E) keep records on control equipment parameters, production variables or other indirect data when direct monitoring of emissions is impractical; (F) submit compliance certifications in accordance with Section 114(a)(3); and (G) provide such other information as the Administrator may reasonably require.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      In the Administrator's judgment, emissions from storage vessels, process vents, transfer racks, and equipment leaks associated with the SOCMI cause or contribute to air pollution that may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare.  Therefore, the NSPS and NESHAP were promulgated for this source category at 40 CFR parts 60, 61, and 63 referencing subparts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      2(b)  Practical Utility/Users of the Data
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The recordkeeping and reporting requirements in the standards ensure compliance with the applicable regulations which were promulgated in accordance with the Clean Air Act.  The collected information is also used for targeting inspections and as evidence in legal proceedings.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Performance tests are required in order to determine an affected facility's initial capability to comply with the emission standards.  Continuous emission monitors are used to ensure compliance with the standards at all times.  During the performance test, a record of the operating parameters under which compliance was achieved may be recorded and used to determine compliance in place of a continuous emission monitor.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The notifications required in the standards are used to inform the Agency or delegated authority when a source becomes subject to the requirements of the regulations.  The reviewing authority may then inspect the source to check if pollution control devices are properly installed and operated, if leaks are being detected and repaired, and that the standards are being met.  The performance test may also be observed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The required reports are used to determine periods of excess emissions, identify problems at the facility, verify operation/maintenance procedures and for compliance determinations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.  Non-duplication, Consultations, and Other Collection Criteria
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The requested recordkeeping and reporting are required under 40 CFR parts 60, 61, and 63 referencing subparts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(a)  Non-duplication
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       If the subject standards have not been delegated, the information is sent directly to the appropriate EPA regional office.  Otherwise, the information is sent directly to the delegated state or local agency.  If a state or local agency has adopted its own similar standards to implement the Federal standards, a copy of the report submitted to the state or local agency can be sent to the Administrator in lieu of the report required by the Federal standards.  Therefore,  duplication does not exist.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(b)  Public Notice Required Prior to ICR Submission to OMB
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      An announcement of a public comment period for the renewal of this ICR was published in the Federal Register (78 FR 35023) on June 11, 2013.  No comments were received on the burden published in the Federal Register.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(c)  Consultations

      	The Agency's industry experts have been consulted, and the Agency's internal data sources and projections of industry growth over the next three years have been considered.  The primary source of information as reported by industry, in compliance with the recordkeeping and reporting provisions in the standard, is the Online Tracking Information System (OTIS) which is operated and maintained by the EPA Office of Compliance. OTIS is the EPA database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of all compliance data.

      Consultations with industry representatives (i.e., respondents) were conducted to determine if there is anyway for EPA to reduce the recordkeeping and reporting burden or improve the language in the standard to make it easier to comply.  In developing this ICR, we contacted: 1) the Society of Chemical Manufacturers and Affiliates (SOCMA), at<PHONE_NUMBER>; and 2) the American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM), at<PHONE_NUMBER>.

      It is our policy to respond after a thorough review of comments received since the last ICR renewal as well as those submitted in response to the first Federal Register notice.  In this case, no comments were received.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(d)  Effects of Less Frequent Collection
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Less frequent information collection would decrease the margin of assurance that facilities are continuing to meet the standards.  Requirements for information gathering and recordkeeping are useful techniques to ensure that good operation and maintenance practices are applied and emission limitations are met.  If the information required by these standards was collected less frequently, the proper operation and maintenance of control equipment and the possibility of detecting violations would be less likely.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(e)  General Guidelines
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      These reporting or recordkeeping requirements do not violate any of the regulations promulgated by OMB under 5 CFR part 1320, section 1320.5.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      These standards require the respondents to maintain all records, including reports and notifications for at least five years.  This is consistent with the General Provisions as applied to the standards.  EPA believes that the five-year records retention requirement is consistent with Part 70 permit program and the five-year statute of limitations on which the permit program is based.  The retention of records for five years allows EPA to establish the compliance history of a source, any pattern of non-compliance and to determine the appropriate level of enforcement action.  EPA has found that the most flagrant violators have violations extending beyond five years.  In addition, EPA would be prevented from pursuing the violators due to the destruction or nonexistence of essential records.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(f)  Confidentiality
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Any information submitted to the Agency for which a claim of confidentiality is made will be safeguarded according to the Agency policies set forth in Title 40, chapter 1, part 2, subpart B - Confidentiality of Business Information (CBI) (see 40 CFR 2; 41 FR 36902, September 1, 1976; amended by 43 FR 40000, September 8, 1978; 43 FR 42251, September 20, 1978; 44 FR 17674, March 23, 1979).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(g)  Sensitive Questions
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The reporting or recordkeeping requirements in the standard do not include sensitive questions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      4(b)  Information Requested
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (i)  Data Items
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      In this ICR, all the data that is recorded or reported is required by The Consolidated Air Rule (CAR) for the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Attachment A lists the recordkeeping and reporting requirements for the CAR and its referencing subparts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Electronic Reporting
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Some of the respondents are using monitoring equipment that automatically records parameter data.  Although personnel at the affected facility must still evaluate the data, internal automation has significantly reduced the burden associated with monitoring and recordkeeping at a plant site.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Also, regulatory agencies in cooperation with the respondents continue to create reporting systems to transmit data electronically.  However, electronic reporting systems are still not widely used.  At this time, it is estimated that approximately 20 percent of the respondents use electronic reporting.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (ii)  Respondent Activities
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The respondent activities required by the CAR and its referencing subparts are identified in the following table.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Respondent Activities

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Read instructions.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate CPMS for the appropriate control device.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Perform initial performance test and repeat performance tests if necessary.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Write the notifications and reports listed in Attachment A.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enter information required to be recorded in Attachment A.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Submit the required reports developing, acquiring, installing, and utilizing technology and systems for the purpose of collecting, validating, and verifying information.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of processing and maintaining information.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of disclosing and providing information.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transmit, or otherwise disclose the information.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Currently sources are using monitoring and reporting equipment that provide parameter data in an automated way (e.g., continuous parameter monitoring system).  Although personnel at the source still need to evaluate the data, this type of monitoring equipment has significantly reduced the burden associated with monitoring and recordkeeping.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5.  The Information Collected:  Agency Activities, Collection Methodology, and Information Management
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      5(a)  Agency Activities
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Agency activities associated with the CAR are presented below in Table 1: Agency Activities; Agency activities associated with the CAR provisions are presented below in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the CAR Provisions; Agency activities associated with the CAR direct final standards are presented below in Table 3: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the CAR Direct Final Standards; and Agency activities associated with the referencing subparts are shown below in Tables F-1 through F-12: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the referencing subparts, respectively.  EPA conducts one or more of these activities in connection with the acquisition, analysis, storage, and distribution of the required information.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      5(b)  Collection Methodology and Management
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Following notification of startup, the reviewing authority could inspect the source to determine whether the pollution control devices are properly installed and operated.  Performance test reports are used by the Agency to discern a source's initial capability to comply with the emission standard.  Data and records maintained by the respondents are tabulated and published for use in compliance and enforcement programs.  The semiannual reports are used for problem identification, as a check on source operation and maintenance, and for compliance determinations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Information contained in the reports is entered into OTIS which is operated and maintained by EPA's Office of Compliance.  OTIS is EPA's database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance data for approximately 125,000 industrial and government-owned facilities.  EPA uses the OTIS for tracking air pollution compliance and enforcement by local and state regulatory agencies, EPA regional offices and EPA headquarters.  EPA and its delegated Authorities can edit, store, retrieve and analyze the data.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       The records required by this regulation must be retained by the owner/operator for five years.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      5(c)  Small Entity Flexibility
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      A majority of the respondents are large entities (i.e., large businesses).  However, the impact on small entities (i.e., small businesses) was taken into consideration during the development of the regulation.  Due to technical considerations involving the process operations and the types of control equipment employed, the recordkeeping and reporting requirements are the same for both small and large entities.  The Agency considers these to be the minimum requirements needed to ensure compliance and, therefore, cannot reduce them further for small entities.  To the extent that larger businesses can use economies of scale to reduce their burden, the overall burden will be reduced.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      5(d)  Collection Schedule
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The specific frequency for each information collection activity within this request is shown below in Table 5: Basis for Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the CAR, and Tables G-1 through G-13: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the referencing subparts, respectively.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6.  Estimating the Burden and Cost of the Collection
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      For the referencing subparts that document the computation of individual burdens for the recordkeeping and reporting requirements applicable to the industry for each of the subparts included in this ICR, see below: Table 6: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the CAR Provisions; Table 7: Annual Respondent Burden and for the Direct Final Standards; and Tables G-1 through G-13: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost.  The individual burdens are expressed under standardized headings believed to be consistent with the concept of "burden" under the Paperwork Reduction Act.  Wherever appropriate, specific tasks and major assumptions have been identified.  Responses to this information collection are mandatory.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to,        a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB Control Number.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      6(a)  Estimating Respondent Burden
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The average annual burden to industry over the next three years from these recordkeeping and reporting requirements is estimated to be 2,130,669 hours (Total Labor Hours from Table 8 below).  These hours are based on Agency studies and background documents from the development of the regulation, Agency knowledge and experience with the NSPS and NESHAP programs, the previously-approved ICR, and any comments received.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      6(b)  Estimating Respondent Costs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (i)  Estimating Labor Costs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      This ICR uses the following labor rates:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Managerial	$123.04 ($58.59+ 110%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Technical	$101.22 ($48.20 + 110%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Clerical	$51.18 ($24.37 + 110%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, March 2013, "Table 2. Civilian Workers, by occupational and industry group."  The rates are from column 1, "Total compensation."  The rates have been increased by 110 percent to account for the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (ii)  Estimating Capital/Startup and Operation and Maintenance Costs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Because we assume that no new sources will opt to comply with the CAR at startup over the next 3 years, there is no capital/startup cost associated with the CAR.  Facilities that comply with the CAR are assumed to have already purchased any equipment needed to comply with the referencing subpart.  There is no capital/startup cost associated with the Direct Final Rule for Revisions to the CAR.  Both Capital/startup and O&M costs for the referencing subparts are summarized below in Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Details of the capital/startup and O&M costs, as taken from the most recently approved ICR for the CAR and referencing subparts, are detailed in Appendix J.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (iii)  Capital/Startup vs. Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Costs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The total capital/startup costs for this ICR are $3,371,800.  This is the total of column J in Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The total operation and maintenance (O&M) costs for this ICR are $97,905,200.  This is the total of column I in Table 8.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The average annual cost for both capital/startup and O&M costs to industry over the next three years of the ICR is estimated to be $101,277,000.  These are recordkeeping costs.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      6(c)  Estimating Agency Burden and Cost
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The only costs to the Agency are those costs associated with analysis of the reported information.  EPA's overall compliance and enforcement program includes activities such as the examination of records maintained by the respondents, periodic inspection of sources of emissions, and the publication and distribution of collected information.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The average annual Agency burden and cost during the three years of the ICR is estimated to be $1,330,635.  Details upon which this estimate is based appear below in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the CAR Provisions; Table 3: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the Direct Final Standards; and Tables F-1 through F-12: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the referencing subparts, and is summarized overall in Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      This cost is based on the average hourly labor rate as follows:

		Managerial	$62.27 (GS-13, Step 5, $38.92 + 60%)
		Technical	$46.21 (GS-12, Step 1, $28.88 + 60%)
		Clerical	$25.01 (GS-6, Step 3, $15.63 + 60%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2013 General Schedule, which excludes locality, rates of pay.  The rates have been increased by 60 percent to account for the benefit packages available to government employees.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      6(d)  Estimating the Respondent Universe and Total Burden and Costs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Based on our research for this ICR, on average over the next three years, the total number of respondents is 4,618.  For the CAR, the direct final rule for revisions to the CAR, and the referencing subparts, the calculation of respondents is summarized in Column (A) of Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The number of Total Annual Responses is 12,229 responses.  For the CAR, the direct final rule for revisions to the CAR, and the referencing subparts, the calculation of responses is summarized below in Column (B) of Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR.  A detailed breakdown of the Total Annual Responses specifically associated with the CAR, the direct final rule for revisions to the CAR, and the referencing subparts is provided below in Table 9: Summary of Total Annual Responses for Referencing Subparts and the CAR.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The total annual labor costs are $208,415,801.  Details regarding these estimates may be found below in the following tables: Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR; Table 6: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the CAR Provisions; Table 7: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the Direct Final Standards; and Tables G-1 through G-13: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the referencing subparts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      6(e)  Bottom Line Burden Hours and Cost Tables
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The detailed bottom line burden hours and cost calculations for the respondents and the Agency are summarized below in Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR, and are detailed, respectively, in Tables 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the CAR Provisions and  6: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the CAR Provisions, plus Tables: 3: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the Direct Final Standards and 7: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the Direct Final Standards; and in both Tables F-1 through F-12: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the referencing subparts and Tables G-1 through G-13: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the referencing subparts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (i) Respondent Tally
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The total annual labor hours are 2,130,669 hours at a cost of $208,415,801.  Details regarding these estimates may be found below in: Table 6: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the CAR Provisions; Table 7: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the Direct Final Standards; and Tables G-1 through G-13: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the referencing subparts, respectively.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Furthermore, the annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 174 hours per response.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The total annual capital/startup and O&M costs to the regulated entity are $101,277,000.  The cost calculations are detailed above in Section 6(b)(iii), Capital/Startup vs. Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Costs.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (ii) The Agency Tally
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The average annual Agency burden and cost over next three years is estimated to be 29,526 labor hours at a cost of $1,330,635.  See below: Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR and detailed in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the CAR Provisions; Table 3: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the Direct Final Standards; and Tables F-1 through F-12: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the referencing subparts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      6(f)  Reasons for Change in Burden
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      There is an increase in the total estimated respondent labor burden and associated labor, capital/startup, and O&M costs.  Overall, the change in burden from the most recently-approved ICR is due to an increase in the number of sources subject to the standard, and is not due to any program changes.  The number of sources has been increased to reflect industry growth, which in turn increased the cost of those subparts where growth is expected.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      There is a further overall increase in respondent burden costs from the most recently approved ICR due to the use of updated labor rates.  This ICR references labor rates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics to calculate respondent burden costs.  Note that this ICR also references labor rates from OPM to calculate Agency costs; however, the update did not affect Agency costs since the rates are identical between this and the most recently approved ICR.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Specific changes to the burden tables include:

      Table 8: since this is a summary table, the appropriate entries were updated according to changes made in Tables F-1 through F-12 and G-1 through G-13.

      Tables F-2 and G-2 (i.e., subpart Kb): the tables were updated to account for industry growth.  Also, we have revised the O&M cost to reflect both new and existing sources.  The most recently approved ICR erroneously reflected O&M costs for new sources only.

      Tables F-4 and G-4 (i.e., subpart VVa): the table was updated to account for industry growth.  Also, we have revised the respondent labor burden to reflect both new and existing sources.  The most recently approved ICR erroneously reflected the respondent labor burden for new sources only.

      Tables F-5 and G-5 (i.e., subpart DDD): the tables were updated to account for industry growth.  We also have updated the total O&M cost accordingly.  In addition, we have revised Table G-5 to account for the labor burden associated with preparing repeat performance test notifications, and to make it consistent with the related burden presented in Table F-5 for Agency review of these notifications.

      Tables F-6 and G-6 (i.e., subpart III): the tables were updated to account for industry growth.  We also have updated the total O&M cost accordingly.

      Tables F-7 and G-7 (i.e., subpart NNN): the tables were updated to account for industry growth.  We also have updated the total O&M cost accordingly.

      Tables F-8 and G-8 (i.e., subpart RRR): the tables were updated to account for industry growth.  We also have updated the total O&M cost accordingly.

      Tables F-11 and G-11 (i.e., subpart V): the tables were updated to account for industry growth.

      Tables F-12, G-12, and G-13 (i.e., the HON): the tables were updated to account for industry growth.

Assumptions:
[a.]  This ICR uses the following labor rates: $46.21 for technical, $62.27 for managerial, and $25.01 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) 2013 General Schedule, which excludes locality rates of pay.  The rates have been increased by 60 percent to account for the benefit packages available to government employees.
[b.]  Estimate all CAR sources must submit an initial notification.  We estimate 1/3 of sources will submit initial notification in each of the three years covered by this ICR.  This equates to 27 per year (80/3) during each of the three years following promulgation.
[c.]  Estimate 318 equipment leak sources will comply with the CAR (240 from the HON, 59 from subpart VV and 19 from subpart V - see Table 4).  Reports for equipment leaks will be submitted semiannually (318 x 2 = 636 per year).  See Attachment C for assumptions and further description of activities.
[d.]  Estimate 25 percent of the 320 SOCMI facilities, which equals 80 facilities, will opt to comply with the CAR and must submit periodic reports each year.

         Assumptions:
           [a.]  This table provides estimates on a per-source basis, rather than a per-facility basis.  Therefore, estimates correlate to (as described in the footnote to the appropriate Table), but do not match, facility entries in the reference subpart burden tables (Tables F-1 through F-12, and G-1 through G-13).  For the purposes of this ICR, a source is defined as:
         oo One storage vessel (subparts Ka, Kb, Y, and G);
         oo One process vent (subparts DDD, III, NNN, RRR, and G);
         oo The collection of subject equipment for one process unit (subparts VV, VVa, V, and H and I); or
         oo One transfer rack (subparts BB and G).

Assumptions:
[a.]  The HON, the basis for the CAR burden estimate, requires connector monitoring.  Sources originally complying with subpart V or VV will not be required to perform connector monitoring.  Connector monitoring for these facilities is the average of the per source burden for subparts V and VV.  The average for subparts V and VV is 294 hours, 40.9 percent less than the HON-based estimate.  Per-source estimates for each burden item were estimated by multiplying the HON-based estimate by 40.9 percent.
[b.]  From the most recently approved CAR ICR.
c.  Total burden for each source type is the product of the per-source burden and the total number of sources estimated to opt to comply with the CAR.  The estimated numbers of sources to comply with the CAR is from the most recently approved ICR and are detailed in Table 4:
         oo      process vents - 725
         oo      storage vessels - 1,640
         oo      transfer racks - 320
         oo      equipment leaks with connector monitoring - 240
         oo      equipment leaks without connector monitoring - 78
         oo      facilities (used for inventory estimate) - 80
[d.]  Total burden for each burden item is the sum of totals for each source type.  This burden represents technical hours only and is the basis for determining total burden in Table 6.

  Assumptions:
  Following is a brief explanation of each column.  A more detailed description is provided in Attachment E.
     (a) Average hours per activity are back-calculated by dividing (c) by (b).
     (b) Number of activities per year is based on the estimate of number of activities per year for the HON, with a reduction to reflect the consolidation of activities achieved through the CAR.
     (c) Technical hours per year per respondent are the total technical hours for a burden item as estimated in Table 5, divided by 80 facilities.
     (d) Estimated technical hours per year are the total technical hours for all facilities for each burden item, as estimated in Table 4.
     (e) Estimated managerial hours per year are assumed to be 5 percent of technical hours.
     (f) Estimated clerical hours per year are assumed to be 10 percent of technical hours.
     (g) Annual Cost is the sum of costs for technical, managerial, and clerical hours.  This ICR uses the following labor rates: $101.22 for technical, $123.04 for managerial, and $51.18 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, March 2013, "Table 2. Civilian workers, by occupational and industry group."  The rates are from column 1, "Total compensation."  The rates have been increased by 110 percent to account for the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry.

Assumptions:
[a.]  This ICR uses the following labor rates: $101.22 for technical, $123.04 for managerial, and $51.18 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, March 2013, "Table 2. Civilian workers, by occupational and industry group."  The rates are from column 1, "Total compensation."  The rates have been increased by 110 percent to account for the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry.
[b.]  This is a one-time event for six respondents per year.
