This ICR covers information collection requirements in the final Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) for Oil and Natural Gas Well Production Facilities; Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation (UOIR) in Utah (40 CFR Part 49, Subpart K, 49.4182). The information collected will be used by EPA and delegated tribal agencies to determine the compliance status of sources subject to the rule, which require owners and operators of new, modified, and existing minor oil and natural gas production facilities producing on the Uintah and Ouray Indian Reservation in the Uinta Basin to reduce emissions of VOC, from crude oil, condensate, and produced water storage tanks, from glycol dehydrators, from pneumatic pumps, from pneumatic controllers, and from tanker truck loading and unloading. Oil and natural gas production facilities may also contain other VOC-emitting units or activities that include, but are not limited to, compressors, evaporation ponds, two and three-phase separators, heater treaters, liquids unloading, turbines, and reciprocating internal combustion engines. This rule does not contain requirements for, or otherwise apply to, those types of equipment. Additionally, this rule creates a streamlined permitting mechanism for new or modified sources. However, the FIPs new/modified source permitting requirements are generally consistent with those requirements under the New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for the Oil and Natural Gas Sector at 40 CFR Part 60, subparts OOOO and OOOOa (NSPS OOOO/OOOOa), and the Federal Minor New Source Review Program in Indian Country at 40 CFR Part 49 (Federal Indian Country Minor NSR Program) . The costs associated with the monitoring, recording, and recordkeeping for new/modified sources is calculated under the existing ICRs for OOOO and OOOOa. The potential respondents are owners or operators of oil and natural gas production facilities found throughout the UOIR. In general, owners or operators are required to maintain records of all oil and natural gas well completions, required monitoring, and rule compliance. The UOIR FIP also requires annual reports containing information for each oil and natural gas production facility, including a summary of all required records identifying each oil and natural gas well completion conducted during the reporting period, and a summary of all instances where construction or operation was not performed in compliance with the requirements of the UOIR FIP during the reporting period. Additionally, a triennial summary emissions inventory is required for each facility covered under this rulemaking. These reports and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all sources subject to the UOIR FIP.
