    Abstract: The NESHAP for Manufacturing of Nutritional Yeast were 
promulgated on May 21, 2001 and the Risk and Technology Review 
Amendments were published on October 16, 2017. This rule applies to 
facilities where the total hazardous air pollutants (HAP) emitted are 
either greater than or equal to 10 tons per year of any single HAP, or 
where the total HAP emitted are either greater than or equal to 25 tons 
per year of any combination of HAP. The Nutritional Yeast NESHAP sets 
emission limits for fermenter operations at nutritional yeast 
manufacturing facilities. This information is being collected to assure 
compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart CCCC.
    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 the NESHAP.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Nutritional yeast manufacturing 
facilities.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart CCCC).
    Estimated number of respondents: 4 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 1,410 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $969,000 (per year), which includes $776,000 
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. 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 or operation and maintenance 
(O&M) costs.

Director, Information Engagement Division.
