Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Boat Manufacturing were proposed on July 14,
2000, promulgated on August 22, 2001, amended on October 3, 2001 and
March 20, 2020, and technical corrections published on November 1,
2021. These regulations apply to both existing and new boat
manufacturing facilities that are a major source of hazardous air
pollutant (HAP) emissions. This regulation covers resin and gel coat
operations at fiberglass boat manufacturers, paint and coating
operations at aluminum boat manufacturers, and carpet and fabric
adhesive operations at all boat manufacturers. Air toxics are released
during application and curing from the resins, gel coats, adhesives,
coating, and solvents used in boat manufacturing. New facilities
include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after May
17, 2019. This information is being collected to assure compliance with
40 CFR part 63, subpart VVVV.
In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications,
performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the
affected facilities. Owners/operators are also required to maintain
records of the occurrence and duration of any failures to meet
applicable standards. These notifications, reports, and records are
essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected
facilities subject to NESHAP.
Form Numbers: 5900-717.
Respondents/affected entities: Boat manufacturing facilities that
are a major source of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63,
subpart VVVV).
Estimated number of respondents: 108 (total).
Frequency of response: Initially, annually, and semiannually.
Total estimated burden: 11,800 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $1,620,000 (per year). There are no
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the estimates: There is a decrease in the total
estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by
OMB. This decrease is not due to any program changes. The change in the
burden and cost estimates occurred because the standard has been in
effect for more than three years and the requirements are different
during initial compliance as compared to on-going compliance. The
previous ICR reflected those burdens and costs associated with the
initial activities for subject facilities. This included re-evaluating
startup, shutdown, and malfunctions requirements; CDX registration, and
familiarization with CEDRI for electronic reporting. This ICR, by and
large, reflects the on-going burden and costs for existing facilities.
