In accordance with 5CFR1320.13, OMB does not approve these information collection requirements at this time. EPA has not adequately justified the need for these requirements, and hasn't demonstrated their practic utility. Before this ICR is re-submitted for OMB approval, EPA should address the following questions: 1. Can EPA learn more about CO trips by studying 1 or 2 kilns instead of requiring additional reporting from all plants subject to the standard? If not, why not? 2. Why won't less expensive and more reliable alternatives to continuous opacity monitors suffice to prove that ESPs are being operated continuously and properly? How much additional pollution reduction is CEM expected to produce, and at what cost? 3. Why are daily opacity measurements necesary for baghouses? Doesn't the sudden increase in emissions make it obvious when a bag tears? Would visual inspection not using Method 9 be adequate? 4. Could EPA impose the reporting requirements on only those sources that have a history of compliance difficulties (perhaps established by complaints)? Please use OMB comment number 2060-0025 in any correspondence on ICR.
