    Abstract: The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Flexible 
Vinyl and Urethane Coating and Printing were promulgated on June 29, 
1984; and amended on October 17, 2000. These regulations apply to 
facilities with rotogravure printing lines used to either print or coat 
flexible vinyl or urethane products for which construction, 
modification or reconstruction commenced after January 18, 1983. This 
information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 
60, subpart FFF. 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 the 
NSPS.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Facilities with rotogravure printing 
lines used to either print or coat flexible vinyl or urethane products.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart FFF).
    Estimated number of respondents: 43 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, annually, semiannually.
    Total estimated burden: 1,360 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $809,000 (per year), which includes $623,000 
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: The increase in burden and costs from the

most recently approved ICR is due to an adjustment. The adjustment is 
due to an increase in the number of new or modified sources. The 
capital and O&M costs also increased due to the number of respondents. 
Additionally, the capital and O&M costs were increased from 2007 $ to 
2024 $ using the CEPCI CE Index.
