Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants (NESHAP) for Metal Can Manufacturing Surface Coating were
proposed on January 15, 2003, promulgated on November 13, 2003, and
amended on January 6, 2006 and February 25, 2020. The latest amendment
was a residual risk and technology review (RTR) required of periodic
air emissions testing, revisions to the startup, shutdown, and
malfunction (SSM) provisions, and the use of electronic data reporting
for performance test data submittals notifications, and reports. These
regulations apply to existing and new facilities in this source
category that use 5,700 liters (1,500 gallons) per year or more of
coatings and that is a major source of hazardous air pollutant (HAP).
The metal can surface coating source category includes any facilities
that coat or print metal cans (including decorative tins), metal ends
for metal or composite cans, or metal crowns or closures for any type
of can during any stage of the can manufacturing process. The source
category does not include the coating of metal coils for cans or can
parts. Coil coating for cans and can parts is included in the NESHAP
for the surface coating of metal coil (40 CFR part 63, subpart SSSS).
The source category does not include the coating of pails and drums,
which is covered in the NESHAP for the surface coating of miscellaneous
metal parts and products (40 CFR part 63, subpart MMMM). New facilities
include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after
January 15, 2003. This information is being collected to assure
compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart KKKK.
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.
Respondents/affected entities: Metal can manufacturing facilities
that use 5,700 liters (1,500 gallons) per year or more of surface
coatings.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63,
subpart KKKK).
Estimated number of respondents: 5 (total).
Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually.
Total estimated burden: 1,940 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $282,000 (per year), which includes $15,400
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
[[Page 10901]]
Changes in the estimates: There is a decrease of 54 hours in the
total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently
approved by OMB. The previous ICR reflected those burdens and costs
associated with the initial activities for subject facilities due to
the 2020 amendments. This included time to familiarize with CEDRI for
electronic reporting and revision of record systems due to the
revisions for periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction. There is
also a decrease in the Capital O&M compared to the previously approved
ICR. Most of the Capital O&M included with the previous ICR is
associated with capital and startup costs. This ICR, by in large,
reflects the on-going burden and costs for existing facilities
following rulemaking activities.
