Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Engine Test Cells/Stands (40 CFR part 63,
subpart PPPPP) apply to any existing, new, or reconstructed engine test
cells/stands located at major source facilities that are used for
testing internal combustion engines. Owners and operators of engine
test cells/stands 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 PPPPP. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial
notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/
operators of the affected facilities. These notifications, reports, and
records are essential in determining compliance with 40 CFR part 63,
subpart PPPPP and must be maintained for at least 5 years from the date
on which it was generated.
Form Numbers: 5900-523.
Respondents/affected entities: Engine test cells/stands.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63,
subpart PPPPP).
Estimated number of respondents: 8 (total).
Frequency of response: Semiannually.
Total estimated burden: 830 hours (per year). Burden is defined at
5 CFR 1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $101,000 (per year), which includes $2,400 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. The regulations were previously amended in a Risk
and Technology Review (RTR) on June 3, 2020 at 85 FR 34326. The change
in the burden and cost estimates in this ICR occurred because the
revised standard has been in effect for 1.5 years and the requirements
are different during initial compliance (new facilities) as compared to
on-going compliance (existing facilities). The previous ICR (2066.09)
reflected those burdens and costs associated with the initial
activities for those facilities subject to the June 3, 2020 final rule.
This ICR (2066.10) reflects the ongoing burden and costs for existing
facilities. The final rule amendments eliminated the SSM exemption,
removed the SSM plan and SSM recordkeeping requirements, and required
electronic submittal of performance test results. This ICR adjusts the
burden, following the June 3, 2020 final rule, to reflect the current
number of entities anticipated to be subject to the rule, and assumes
the one new source identified in the RTR has already complied with the
initial notification and testing requirements, resulting in a decrease
in the capital/startup costs. This ICR retains the assumption in the
final rule ICR that two new sources will submit an initial notification
over the next three years, but will not be subject to emission limits,
performance testing, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements. No new
sources that would be subject to the emission limits, performance
testing, recordkeeping and reporting requirements are anticipated
during the three-year period of this ICR.
