Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Area Sources: Asphalt Processing and Asphalt
Roofing Manufacturing (40 CFR part 63, subpart AAAAAAA) were proposed
on July 9, 2009, promulgated on December 2, 2009, and amended on March
18, 2010. These regulations apply to existing facilities and new
facilities that are Area Sources and that either process asphalt or
manufacture asphalt roofing products. New facilities include those that
commenced either construction, modification or reconstruction after the
date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure
compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart AAAAAAA.
In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications,
performance tests, 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 startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the
operation of an affected facility, 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.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: Existing and new facilities that are
area sources and that process asphalt or manufacture asphalt roofing
products.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63,
subpart AAAAAAA).
Estimated number of respondents: 59 (total).
Frequency of response: Semiannually.
Total estimated burden: 2,370 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $286,000 (per year), which includes $885 in
annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: The increase in burden from the most
recently approved ICR is due to an adjustment. The adjustment increase
is due to an increase in the number of respondents based on review of
the results of a Section 114 request from 2017, EPA's ECHO database,
and facility permits. There is an increase in the operation and
maintenance (O&M) costs due to the increased number of respondents.

Director, Regulatory Support Division.
