In accordance with 5 CFR 1320, the information collection is approved for three years. As terms of clearance, upon renewal of this collection, EPA is required to include the following in its supporting statement for this and other NESHAP ICRs: (1) a description of the regulatory text applicable to the ICR including submission specifications; (2) a clear description of the data elements being collected under the ICR; (3) screen shots of the electronic portal where the reporting requirements are submitted to EPA (with the control number and burden statement); (4) a detailed discussion of how information is submitted and the extent to which electronic reporting is available; (5) evidence of consultation with respondents (by actively reaching out to stakeholders as permitted by the PRA) to ensure the supporting statement's accuracy on availability of data, frequency of collection, clarity of instructions, accuracy of burden estimate, relevance of data elements, and similar PRA matters; and (6) discussion of how EPA addressed substantive concerns raised by respondents and other stakeholders during consultation and in response to comments received on FR notices. In addition, please convert the supporting statement to the standard 18 question SS-A format upon renewal.

Abstract:
The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Surface Coating of Metal Coil were proposed on July 18, 2000, promulgated on June 10, 2002, and most recently amended on March 17, 2003. The NESHAP is codified at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart SSSS. This supporting statement addresses information collection activities that will be imposed by the NESHAP for Surface Coating of Metal Coils, including activities proposed to be added based on the residual risk and technology review (RTR) required under the Clean Air Act (CAA). The NESHAP for Surface Coating of Metal Coils applies to each new and existing affected source of HAP emissions at facilities that are major sources and that perform metal coil surface coating. New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after July 18, 2000. As part of the RTR for the NESHAP for Surface Coating of Metal Coils, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is not proposing to revise the emission limit requirements. The EPA is proposing to require periodic air emissions testing to measure organic HAP destruction or removal efficiency at the inlet and outlet of the add-on control device, or control device outlet concentration of organic HAP, once every five years for existing and new surface coating affected sources using the emission rate with add-on controls compliance option. The EPA is proposing to revise the startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM) provisions of the Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) rule and proposing the use of electronic data reporting for future performance test data submittals, notifications, and reports. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart SSSS. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests (if sources are using add-on controls to demonstrate compliance), 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 deviation from an emission limitation (either a numerical emission limit, an operating limit, or an equipment or work practice standard), 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 NESHAP.

Short Statement:
The increase in burden results from the RTR for the NESHAP for Surface Coating of Metal Coils. EPA is proposing to require periodic air emissions testing to measure organic HAP destruction or removal efficiency at the inlet and outlet of the add-on control device, or control device outlet concentration of organic HAP, once every five years for existing and new surface coating affected sources using the emission rate with add-on controls compliance option. The EPA is proposing to revise the startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM) provisions of the Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) rule and proposing the use of electronic data reporting for future performance test data submittals, notifications, and reports.
