Abstract: Owners and operators of wood furniture manufacturing
facilities are required to comply with reporting and record keeping
requirements for the general provisions of 40 CFR part 63, subpart A,
as well as the applicable specific standards in 40 CFR part 63 subpart
JJ. This includes submitting initial notifications, performance tests
and periodic reports and results, and maintaining 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 reports are used by EPA to
determine compliance with these standards.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: Wood furniture manufacturing
facilities.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63,
subpart JJ).
Estimated number of respondents: 230 (total), consisting of 142
existing major sources and 88 existing incidental/area sources.
Frequency of response: Quarterly and semi-annually.
Total estimated burden: 15,900 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $1,890,000 (per year), which includes $12,900
in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease in burden from the
most-recently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory
of Approved Burdens. This is due to a decrease in the number of
respondents subject to Subpart JJ. The estimated number of respondents
is based on a review of affected facilities in EPA's Enforcement and
Compliance History Online (ECHO) database and reflects consolidation
within the industry. The regulations have not changed significantly
over the past three years and are not anticipated to change
significantly over the next three years. The growth rate for this
industry is very low or non-existent, so there is no significant change
in the overall burden. Since there are no significant changes in the
regulatory requirements and there is no significant industry growth,
there are no changes in the capital/startup cost. There is a decrease
in operation and maintenance (O&M) costs due to a decrease in the
number of respondents with these costs. Operation and maintenance (O&M)
costs have been updated from year 2001 to year 2019 using the CEPCI
Index.

Director, Regulatory Support Division.
