Abstract: Respondents are owners or operators of portland cement manufacturing plants, except for kilns and in-line kiln/raw mills that burn hazardous waste and are subject to 40 CFR part 63, subpart EEE. The amendments will establish or revise emission limits for total hydrocarbons (THC), mercury (Hg), and particulate matter (PM) for major and area sources and hydrogen chloride (HCl) for area sources. To demonstrate compliance with these emission limits, owners or operators of new, existing or reconstructed kilns subject to the standard would be required to continuously monitor THC, Hg, PM and HCl. The exception is that kilns equipped with scrubbers can perform an initial Method 321 emission test and additional tests every 30 months and monitor scrubber parameters continuously. Respondents would be required to maintain additional records to demonstrate compliance with THC, Hg, HCl, and PM limits and notify EPA of performance tests.

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: There is an overall decrease in burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This decrease is not due to any program changes. The change in the burden and cost estimates occurred because the standard has been in effect for more than three years and the requirements are different during initial compliance (new facilities) as compared to on-going compliance (existing facilities). The previous ICR reflected those burdens and costs associated with the initial activities for subject facilities. This includes purchasing monitoring equipment, conducting performance tests and establishing record-keeping systems. This ICR, by in large, reflects the on-going burden and costs for existing facilities. Activities for existing source include continuously monitoring of pollutants and the submission of semiannual reports. In addition, we have updated the number of respondents from 100 to 87 using the most recent data available. The overall result is a decrease in the number of responses, labor hours, and costs (including capital and O&M cost).

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $97,500
