    Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Marine Tank Vessel Loading Operations (40 CFR 
part 63, subpart Y) were proposed on May 13, 1994; promulgated on 
September 19, 1995; and amended on both April 21, 2011, and December 1, 
2015. This NESHAP regulation establishes Maximum Achievable Control 
Technology (MACT) standards for existing facilities and new facilities 
that load marine tank vessels with petroleum or gasoline. These 
facilities have aggregate actual hazardous air pollutants (HAP) 
emissions of 10 tons or more of each individual HAP, or 25 tons or more 
of all HAP combined. This

[[Page 5877]]

NESHAP regulation also established reasonably available control 
technology (RACT) standards to such facilities with an annual 
throughput of 10 million or more barrels of gasoline or 200 million or 
more barrels of crude oil. This information is being collected to 
assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart Y.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Marine tank vessel loading 
operations at marine terminals.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart Y).
    Estimated number of respondents: 804 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, semiannually, and annually.
    Total estimated burden: 10,700 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $1,350,000 (per year). There are no 
annualized capital 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.

Director, Information Engagement Division.
