Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) apply to each
affected facility at any grain terminal elevator or any grain storage
elevator. The facilities are each truck unloading station, truck
loading station, barge and ship loading station, railcar loading
station, railcar unloading station, grain dryer and all grain handling
operations that commenced construction, modification or reconstruction
after August 3, 1978. Owners or operators of the affected facilities
must make a one-time-only report of the date of construction or
reconstruction, notification of the actual date of startup,
notification of any physical or operational change to existing facility
that may increase the rate of emission of the regulated pollutant,
notification of initial performance test; and results of initial
performance test. Owners or operators are also required to maintain
records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or
malfunction, or any period during which the monitoring system is
inoperative.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: Grain elevator operators.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60,
subpart DD).
Estimated number of respondents: 200 (total).
Frequency of response: Initially.
Total estimated burden: 460 hours (per year). Burden is defined at
5 CFR 1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $55,000 (per year), which includes no
annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is no change in burden from the
most-recently approved ICR as currently identified in the OMB Inventory
of Approved Burdens. This is due to two considerations: (1) the
regulations have not changed over the past three years and are not
anticipated to change over the next three years; and (2) 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 changes in
the regulatory requirements and there is no significant industry
growth, there are also no changes in the capital/startup and/or
operation and maintenance (O&M) costs.
Courtney Kerwin,
Director, Regulatory Support Division.
