    Abstract: The NESHAP for Polyether Polyols Production (40 CFR part 
63, subpart PPP) were proposed on September 4, 1997; promulgated on 
June 1, 1999; and amended on March 27, 2014. These regulations apply to 
both new and existing facilities that engage in the manufacture of 
polyether polyols (including polyether mono-ols) and emit hazardous air 
pollutants (HAPs). Owners or operators of polyether polyols production 
facilities to which this regulation applies must either choose one of 
the compliance options described in the rule or install and monitor a 
specific control system that reduces HAP emissions to the compliance 
level. Respondents are also subject to sections of 40 CFR part 63, 
subpart A. New facilities include those that commenced construction, 
modification, or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This 
information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 
63, subpart PPP.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Polyether polyols production 
facilities.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, 
subpart PPP).
    Estimated number of respondents: 25 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 4,350 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $554,000 (per year), which includes $6,110 
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the estimates: There is an increase of 640 hours in the 
total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently 
approved by OMB. This increase is due to an increase in the number of 
existing and new sources compared to previous ICR renewals. This 
renewal includes 24 existing sources and one new source subject to the 
subpart over the next three years of this renewal.

Director, Information Engagement Division.
