The National Emissions Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants for Paint Stripping and Miscellaneous
Surface Coating Operations at Area Sources (40 CFR part 63, subpart
HHHHHH) are being proposed. These standards are part of EPAs
Integrated Urban Strategy to reduce cancer risk from area sources
under section 112(k)(3)(C) of the CAA. When these proposed
standards are final, affected sources will have to comply with
recordkeeping and reporting requirements of the new rule. This ICR
includes the burden for activities that will be conducted in the
first 3 years following promulgation of the National Emissions
Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Paint Stripping and
Miscellaneous Surface Coating Operations at Area Sources. The
owners or operators of facilities with these operations would read
instructions to determine how they will be affected by the rule.
New and existing sources will also have to submit an initial
notification. New sources will also be required to submit a
notification of compliance status and an annual compliance report
and maintain records. All surface coating sources will also have to
keep records demonstrating that spray painters have completed
training. Existing paint stripping sources using more than 150
gallons per year of methylene chloride stripping solvent will need
to complete a methylene chloride minimization plan and submit a
notification of compliance status. Because the compliance date for
existing sources is 3 years after the NESHAP is promulgated, other
recordkeeping and reporting activities for existing sources do not
begin until 3 years after promulgation. Therefore, they are not
included in the burden estimate for the first 3 years.
