    Title: NESHAP for Miscellaneous Organic Chemical Manufacturing
(Renewal).
    ICR numbers: EPA ICR Number 1969.03, OMB Control Number 2060-0533.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on October 31, 2006.
Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor
the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB.
An 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. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations
in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the Federal Register when
approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, are displayed either by
publication in the Federal Register or by other appropriate means, such
as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The
display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is
consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.
    Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) for the regulations published at 40 CFR part 63,
subpart FFFF, were proposed on April 4, 2002, and promulgated on
November 10, 2003. These regulations apply to new and existing
facilities that manufacture a miscellaneous organic chemical and are
located at, or are part of, major sources of hazardous air pollutant
(HAP) emissions. New facilities include those that commenced
construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This
information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63
subpart FFFF.
    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, and are required of
all affected facilities subject to NESHAP.
    Any owner/operator subject to the provisions of this part shall
maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at least
five years following the date of such measurements, maintenance
reports, and records. All reports are sent to the delegated state or
local authority. In the event that there is no such delegated
authority, the reports are sent directly to the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regional office.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 254
hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial
resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or
disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This
includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire,
install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of
collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information;
adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable
instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; train
personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search
data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and
transmit or otherwise disclose the information.
    Respondents/Affected Entities: New and existing facilities that
manufacture a miscellaneous organic chemical and are located at, or are
part of, major sources of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 257 .
    Frequency of Response: One-time, semiannually, and on occasion.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 416,830.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $6,132,909, includes $670,256
annualized capital/startup costs and $5,462,653 O&M costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 399,085 hours in
the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of
Approved ICR Burdens. The increase in burden from the most recently
approved ICR is primarily due to the fact that this is the first ICR
prepared after the compliance date. In the previous ICR, annual burden
hours and costs associated with one-time activities were phased in over
the course of the three-year period. In this ICR, existing sources have
been phased into compliance and are subject to on-going requirements,
and new sources are subject to various one-time activities.
Additionally, some burden hours from the previous ICR were deleted
because it was not consistent with the concept of burden.

Director, Collection Strategies Division.

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

[Docket No. IC14-3-000]

Commission Information Collection Activities (FERC-549D); Comment
Request

AGENCY: Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Energy.

ACTION: Comment request.

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

SUMMARY: In compliance with the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D), the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (Commission or FERC) is submitting the information
collection FERC-549D (Quarterly Transportation and Storage Report for
Intrastate Natural Gas and Hinshaw Pipelines) to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for review of the information collection
requirements. Any interested person may file comments directly with OMB
and should address a copy of those comments to the Commission as
explained below. The Commission published notices in the Federal
Register (78 FR 69843, 11/21/2012, and 79 FR 7175, 2/6/2012) requesting
public comments. FERC received no comments on the FERC-549D for either
notice and is making this notation in its submittal to OMB.
    The Commission is issuing this 15-day public notice due to a change
of the estimated burden figures. Upon further review, the Commission
found that the burden estimate required adjustment due to better
estimates. Specifically, the average burden hours per response for XML
filings (implementation burden only) increased from 104 hours to 196
hours. Note: There are no changes to information collection or filing
requirements.

DATES: Comments on the collections of information are due by March 25,
2014.
