    Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Natural Gas Transmission and Storage (40 CFR 
part 63, subpart HHH) apply to existing facilities and new facilities 
that are major sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAP) and that 
either transport or store natural gas prior to entering the pipeline to 
a local distribution company or to a final end user (if there is no 
local distribution company). New facilities include those that 
commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. 
This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR 
part 63, subpart HHH.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Owners and operators of natural gas 
transmission and storage facilities.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart HHH).
    Estimated number of respondents: 91 (total).
    Frequency of response: Semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 4,650 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $586,000 (per year), includes $0 annualized 
capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: The increase in burden from the most 
recently approved ICR is due to an adjustment(s). The adjustment 
increase in burden from the most recently approved ICR is not due to 
any program changes, but due to an increase in the number of new or 
modified sources.

Director, Information Engagement Division.
