    Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for 
Stationary Gas Turbines (40 CFR part 60, subpart GG) were promulgated 
on September 10, 1979; and last-amended on February 27, 2014. These 
regulations apply to both existing facilities and new facilities that 
have stationary gas turbines with a heat input at peak load equal or 
greater than 10.7 gigajoules per hour (based on the lower heating value 
of the fuel fired). There are no new facilities under this subpart, as 
any facility which commenced either construction, or modification, or 
reconstruction after February 18, 2005 is subject to the NSPS for 
Stationary Combustion Turbines (40 CFR part 60, subpart KKKK). This 
information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 
60, subpart GG.
    In general, all NSPS 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 NSPS.
    Form Numbers: None.

[[Page 46198]]

    Respondents/affected entities: Stationary gas turbine facilities.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart GG).
    Estimated number of respondents: 535 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially and semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 69,100 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $9,930,000 (per year). which includes $0 
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the estimates: There is no change in the total estimated 
respondent burden from the most recently approved ICR as currently 
identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. 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.
