Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) for the regulations published at 40 CFR part 63,
subpart GG were proposed on June 6, 1994; promulgated on September 1,
1995; and amended on
[[Page 93581]]
both December 7, 2015 and August 3, 2016. These regulations apply to
existing and new aerospace manufacturing and rework facilities where
the total hazardous air pollutants (HAP) emitted are greater than or
equal to 10 tons per year of any combination of HAP, or where the total
HAP emitted are greater than or equal to 25 tons per year of any
combination of HAP. New facilities include those that commenced
construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. Operations
covered include: cleaning, primer and top coat application, depainting,
chemical milling maskant application, handling and storage of waste,
and specialty coating operations. This information is being collected
to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart GG.
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 NESHAP.
Form Numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: Aerospace manufacturing and rework
facilities.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63,
subpart GG).
Estimated number of respondents: 144 (total).
Frequency of response: Initially, semiannually, annually.
Total estimated burden: 154,000 total hours (per year). Burden is
defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
Total estimated cost: $16,800,000 (per year), includes $224,000
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is no significant 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.
First, the regulations have not changed over the past three years and
are not anticipated to change over the next three years. Second, the
growth rate for this industry is very low or non-existent, so there is
no significant change in the overall burden. There is an increase in
capital and operation & maintenance costs due to an adjustment to
increase from 2007 to 2022 $ using the CEPCI Equipment Cost Index.

Director, Information Engagement Division.
