Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) for the regulations published at 40 CFR part 63,
subpart II apply to the shipbuilding and ship repair industry which
consists of establishments that build, repair, repaint, convert and
alter ships which are either marine or fresh-water vessels used for
military and/or commercial operations. These regulations apply to only
the shipbuilding and repair surface coating operations that occur at
facilities that are major sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs).
New facilities include those that commenced either construction or
reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being
collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart II.
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: Shipbuilding and ship repair
facilities.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63,
subpart II).
Estimated number of respondents: 56 (total).
Frequency of response: Initially and semiannually.
Total estimated burden: 28,700 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $3,390,000 (per year), which includes $0
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the estimates: There is no change in hours in the total
estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by
OMB. 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.

Director, Information Engagement Division.
