SUPPORTING STATEMENT

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

NESHAP for Paper and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ) (Renewal)


1. Identification of the Information Collection


1(a) Title of the Information Collection


NESHAP for Paper and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ) (Renewal), EPA ICR Number 1951.07, OMB Control Number 2060-0511.


1(b) Short Characterization/Abstract


The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Paper and Other Web Coating were proposed on September 13, 2000, and promulgated on December 4, 2002. These regulations apply to existing facilities and new paper and to other web coating facilities, including web coating lines engaged in the coating of metal webs used in flexible packaging, and web coating lines engaged in the coating of fabric substrates for use in pressure sensitive tape and abrasive materials. New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ.


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.


Any owner/operator subject to the provisions of 40 CFR Part 63 shall maintain a file containing these documents and retain the file for at least five years following the date of such reports and records. All reports are sent to the delegated state or local authority. If there is no such delegated authority, the reports are sent directly to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regional office.


The “Affected Public” includes owners and operators of paper and other web coating facilities. The ‘burden’ to the “Affected Public” may be found below in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost – NESHAP for Paper and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ) (Renewal). The ‘burden’ to the “Federal Government” is attributed entirely to work performed by either Federal employees or government contractors and can be found below in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost – NESHAP for Paper and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ) (Renewal). All the paper and other web coating facilities in the United States are owned and operated by the paper and other web coating industry. None of the facilities in the United States are owned by state, local, tribal or the Federal government. They are privately-owned, for-profit businesses.


Based on our consultations with industry representatives, there is an average of one affected facility at each plant site and that each plant site has only one respondent (i.e., the owner/operator of the plant site).


Over the next three years, approximately 191 respondents per year will be subject to these standards, and 6 additional respondents per year will become subject to these same standards (for a total of 197 respondents per year). The respondent universe and growth rate are based on estimates from the previous ICR renewal and the EPA’s recent reevaluation of the source category inventory, which indicated that several facilities have shut down since the last ICR renewal period.


The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approved the currently active ICR without any Terms of Clearance.


2. Need for and Use of the Collection


2(a) Need/Authority for the Collection


The EPA is charged under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act, as amended, to establish standards of performance for each category or subcategory of major sources and area sources of hazardous air pollutants. These standards are applicable to new or existing sources of hazardous air pollutants and shall require the maximum degree of emission reduction. In addition, section 114(a) states that the Administrator may require any owner/operator subject to any requirement of this Act to:


(A) Establish and maintain such records; (B) make such reports; (C) install, use, and maintain such monitoring equipment, and use such audit procedures, or methods; (D) sample such emissions (in accordance with such procedures or methods, at such locations, at such intervals, during such periods, and in such manner as the Administrator shall prescribe); (E) keep records on control equipment parameters, production variables or other indirect data when direct monitoring of emissions is impractical; (F) submit compliance certifications in accordance with Section 114(a)(3); and (G) provide such other information as the Administrator may reasonably require.


In the Administrator's judgment, organic HAP from paper and other web coating facilities either cause or contribute to air pollution that may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health and/or welfare. Therefore, the NESHAP standards were promulgated for this source category at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ.




2(b) Practical Utility/Users of the Data


The recordkeeping and reporting requirements in these standards ensure compliance with the applicable regulations, which were promulgated in accordance with the Clean Air Act. The collected information is also used for targeting inspections and as evidence in legal proceedings.


Performance tests are required in order to determine an affected facility’s initial capability to comply with the emission standards. Continuous emission monitors are used to ensure compliance with these standards at all times. During the performance test, a record of the operating parameters under which compliance was achieved may be recorded and used to determine compliance in place of a continuous emission monitor.


The notifications required in these standards are used to inform either the Agency or its delegated authority when a source becomes subject to the requirements of the regulations. The reviewing authority may then inspect the source to check if the pollution control devices are properly installed and operated, leaks are being detected and repaired, and that these standards are being met. The performance test may also be observed.


The required semiannual reports are used to determine periods of excess emissions, identify problems at the facility, verify operation/maintenance procedures, and for compliance determinations.


3. Non-duplication, Consultations, and Other Collection Criteria


The requested recordkeeping and reporting are required under 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ.


3(a) Non-duplication


If the subject standards have not been delegated, the information is sent directly to the appropriate EPA regional office. Otherwise, the information is sent directly to the delegated state or local agency. If a state or local agency has adopted its own similar standards to implement the Federal standards, a copy of the report submitted to the state or local agency can be sent to the Administrator in lieu of the report required by the Federal standards. Therefore, duplication does not exist.


3(b) Public Notice Required Prior to ICR Submission to OMB


An announcement of a public comment period for the renewal of this ICR was published in the Federal Register (83 FR 24785) on May 30, 2018. No comments were received on the burden published in the Federal Register for this renewal.




3(c) Consultations


The Agency has consulted industry experts and internal data sources to project the number of affected facilities and industry growth over the next three years. The primary source of information as reported by industry, in compliance with the recordkeeping and reporting provisions in the standard, is the Integrated Compliance Information System (ICIS). ICIS is EPA’s database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance data for industrial and government-owned facilities. The growth rate for the industry is based on our consultations with the Agency’s internal industry experts. The EPA’s recent reevaluation of the source category inventory indicated that several facilities have shut down since the last ICR renewal period. An average of approximately 197 respondents will be subject to these standards over the three-year period covered by this ICR, which includes an estimated 6 new respondents per year through the period.


Industry trade associations and other interested parties were provided an opportunity to comment on the burden associated with these standards as were being being developed and these same standards have been reviewed previously to determine the minimum information needed for compliance purposes. In developing this ICR, we contacted both the Flexible Packaging Association, at (410) 694-0823, and the Pressure Sensitive Tape Council, at (828) 267-8428 .


It is our policy to respond after a thorough review of comments received since the last ICR renewal, as well as for those submitted in response to the first Federal Register notice. In this case, no comments were received.


3(d) Effects of Less-Frequent Collection


Less-frequent information collection would decrease the margin of assurance that facilities are continuing to meet these standards. Requirements for information gathering and recordkeeping are useful techniques to ensure that good operation and maintenance practices are applied and emission limitations are met. If the information required by these standards was collected less frequently, the proper operation and maintenance of control equipment and the possibility of detecting violations would be less likely.


3(e) General Guidelines


These reporting or recordkeeping requirements do not violate any of the regulations promulgated by OMB under 5 CFR Part 1320, Section 1320.5. These standards require the respondents to maintain all records, including reports and notifications for at least five years. This is consistent with the General Provisions as applied to the standards. EPA believes that the five-year records retention requirement is consistent with the Part 70 permit program and the five-year statute of limitations on which the permit program is based. The retention of records for five years allows EPA to establish the compliance history of a source, any pattern of non-compliance and to determine the appropriate level of enforcement action. EPA has found that the most flagrant violators have violations extending beyond five years. In addition, EPA would be prevented from pursuing the violators due to the destruction or nonexistence of essential records.


3(f) Confidentiality


Any information submitted to the Agency for which a claim of confidentiality is made will be safeguarded according to the Agency policies set forth in Title 40, chapter 1, part 2, subpart B - Confidentiality of Business Information (CBI) (see 40 CFR 2; 41 FR 36902, September 1, 1976; amended by 43 FR 40000, September 8, 1978; 43 FR 42251, September 20, 1978; 44 FR 17674, March 23, 1979).


3(g) Sensitive Questions


The reporting or recordkeeping requirements in these standards do not include sensitive questions.

5. The Information Collected: Agency Activities, Collection Methodology, and Information Management


5(a) Agency Activities


EPA conducts the following activities in connection with the acquisition, analysis, storage, and distribution of the required information:



Agency Activities

Observe initial performance tests and repeat performance tests if necessary.


Review notifications and reports, including performance test reports, and excess emissions reports, required to be submitted by industry.


Audit facility records.


Input, analyze, and maintain data in the Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO) and ICIS.


5(b) Collection Methodology and Management


Following notification of startup, the reviewing authority could inspect the source to determine whether the pollution control devices are properly installed and operated. Performance test reports are used by the Agency to discern a source’s initial capability to comply with the emission standards. Data and records maintained by the respondents are tabulated and published for use in compliance and enforcement programs. The semiannual reports are used for problem identification, as a check on source operation and maintenance, and for compliance determinations.


Information contained in the reports is reported by state and local governments in the ICIS Air database which is operated and maintained by EPA's Office of Compliance. ICIS is EPA’s database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance data for industrial and government-owned facilities. EPA uses ICIS for tracking air pollution compliance and enforcement by local and state regulatory agencies, EPA regional offices and EPA headquarters. EPA and its delegated Authorities can edit, store, retrieve and analyze the data.


The records required by this regulation must be retained by the owner/operator for five years.


5(c) Small Entity Flexibility


The majority of the respondents are large entities (i.e., large businesses). However, the impact on small entities (i.e., small businesses) was taken into consideration during the development of the regulation. Due to technical considerations involving the process operations and the types of control equipment employed, the recordkeeping and reporting requirements are the same for both small and large entities. The Agency considers these to be the minimum requirements needed to ensure compliance and, therefore, cannot reduce them further for small entities. To the extent that larger businesses can use economies of scale to reduce their burden, the overall burden will be reduced.


5(d) Collection Schedule


The specific frequency for each information collection activity within this request is shown below in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost – NESHAP for Paper and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ) (Renewal).


6. Estimating the Burden and Cost of the Collection


Table 1 documents the computation of individual burdens for the recordkeeping and reporting requirements applicable to the industry for the subpart included in this ICR. The individual burdens are expressed under standardized headings believed to be consistent with the concept of burden under the Paperwork Reduction Act. Where appropriate, specific tasks and major assumptions have been identified. Responses to this information collection are mandatory.


The Agency may neither conduct nor sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB Control Number.


6(a) Estimating Respondent Burden


The average annual burden to industry over the next three years from these recordkeeping and reporting requirements is estimated to be 12,000 hours (Total Labor Hours from Table 1 below). These hours are based on Agency studies and background documents from the development of the regulation, the EPA’s recent reevaluation of the source category inventory, Agency knowledge and experience with the NESHAP program, the previously-approved ICR, and any comments received.


6(b) Estimating Respondent Costs


(i) Estimating Labor Costs

This ICR uses the following labor rates:


Managerial $147.40 ($70.19+ 110%)

Technical $117.92 ($56.15 + 110%)

Clerical $57.02 ($27.15 + 110%)


These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2018, “Table 2. Civilian Workers, by occupational and industry group.” The rates are from column 1, “Total compensation.” The rates have been increased by 110 percent to account for the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry.


(ii) Estimating Capital/Startup and Operation and Maintenance Costs


The type of industry costs associated with the information collection activities in the subject standards are both labor costs which are addressed elsewhere in this ICR and the costs associated with continuous monitoring. The capital/startup costs are one-time costs when a facility becomes subject to the regulation. The annual operation and maintenance costs are the ongoing costs to maintain the monitor and other related costs.

Note: Totals have been rounded to 3 significant digits. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

We estimate an average of 197 sources during the three-year period of this ICR, 174 of which will use CPMS and 23 of which will use CEMS. We also estimate that 6 new sources per year will become subject to the rule. Of the new sources, one source will be using solvent recovery devices and will use CEMS to monitor emissions.

The total capital/startup costs for this ICR are $234,000. This is the total of column D in the above table.


The total operation and maintenance (O&M) costs for this ICR are $618,000. This is the total of column G.


The average annual cost for capital/startup and operation and maintenance costs to industry over the next three years of the ICR is estimated to be $852,000. These are the recordkeeping costs.


6(c) Estimating Agency Burden and Cost


The only costs to the Agency are those costs associated with analysis of the reported information. EPA's overall compliance and enforcement program includes such activities as the examination of records maintained by the respondents, periodic inspection of sources of emissions, and the publication and distribution of collected information.


The average annual Agency cost during the three years of the ICR is estimated to be $341,000.


This cost is based on the average hourly labor rate as follows:


Managerial $65.71 (GS-13, Step 5, $41.07 + 60%)

Technical $48.75 (GS-12, Step 1, $30.47 + 60%)

Clerical $26.38 (GS-6, Step 3, $16.49 + 60%)


These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2018 General Schedule, which excludes locality rates of pay. The rates have been increased by 60 percent to account for the benefit packages available to Federal government employees. Details upon which this estimate is based appear below in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost – NESHAP for Paper and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ) (Renewal).


6(d) Estimating the Respondent Universe and Total Burden and Costs


Based on our research for this ICR, on average over the next three years, approximately 191 existing respondents will be subject to these standards. It is estimated that an additional 6 respondents per year will become subject to these same standards. The overall average number of respondents, as shown in the table below, is 197 per year.


The number of respondents is calculated using the following table that addresses the three years covered by this ICR:

Note: SSM reports are typically submitted with the semiannual reports. However, we assume the 174 sources conducting parametric monitoring will submit an additional report of non-conforming SSM 20% of the time.


The number of Total Annual Responses is 453.


The total annual labor costs are $1,370,000. Details regarding these estimates may be found below in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost – NESHAP for Paper and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ) (Renewal).


6(e) Bottom Line Burden Hours and Cost Tables


The detailed bottom line burden hours and cost calculations for the respondents and the Agency are shown below in Tables 1 and 2, respectively, and summarized below.


(i) Respondent Tally


The total annual labor hours are 12,000 hours. Details regarding these estimates may be found below in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost – NESHAP for Paper and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ) (Renewal).


We assume that burdens for managerial tasks take 5% of the time required for technical tasks because the typical tasks for managers are to review and approve reports. Clerical burdens are assumed to take 10% of the time required for technical tasks because the typical duties of clerical staff are to proofread the reports, make copies and maintain records.


Furthermore, the annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 27 hours per response.


The total annual capital/startup and O&M costs to the regulated entity are $852,000. The cost calculations are detailed in Section 6(b)(iii), Capital/Startup vs. Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Costs.


(ii) The Agency Tally


The average annual Agency burden and cost over next three years is estimated to be 7,180 labor hours at a cost of $341,000; see below in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost – NESHAP for Paper and Other Web Coating (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJJJ) (Renewal).


We assume that burdens for managerial tasks take 5% of the time required for technical tasks because the typical tasks for managers are to review and approve reports. Clerical burdens are assumed to take 10% of the time required for technical tasks because the typical duties of clerical staff are to proofread the reports, make copies and maintain records.


6(f) Reasons for Change in Burden


There is an adjustment decrease in the total estimated burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. This increase is not due to any program changes. The change in the burden and cost estimates is due to more accurate estimates of existing sources based on EPA’s recent reevaluation of the source category inventory, which indicated that several facilities have shut down since the last ICR renewal period. These changes result in an overall decrease in the labor hours, labor costs, and O&M costs.


6(g) Burden Statement

The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 27 hours per response. ‘Burden’ means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information either to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously-applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information.


An agency may neither conduct nor sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB Control Number. The OMB Control Numbers for EPA regulations are listed at 40 CFR Part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter 15.

To comment on the Agency's need for this information, the accuracy of the provided burden estimates, and any suggested methods for minimizing respondent burden, including the use of automated collection techniques, EPA has established a public docket for this ICR under Docket ID Number EPA-HQ-OECA-2014-0077.

Assumptions:










a We have assumed that the average number of respondents that will be subject to this rule will be 197. There will be eighteen additional new sources that will become subject to the rule over the three-year period of the ICR (i.e., six per year).

b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $147.40 per hour for Executive, Administrative, and Managerial labor; $117.92 per hour for Technical labor, and $57.02 per hour for Clerical labor. These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, September 2018, “Table 2: Civilian Workers, by occupational and industry group.” The rates are from column 1: “Total Compensation.” The rates have been increased by 110 percent to account for the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry.

c We have assumed that this is a one-time activity for one new facility using a solvent recovery device.

d Startup, shutdown, malfunction (SSM) reports are to be submitted twice a year with the required semiannual report, and the SSM report applies only to the estimated 174 facilities using a CMPS (see 40 CFR 63.3400). An estimated 20 percent of the respondents using parametric monitoring will submit an additional report for a non-conforming SSM.

e We have assumed that 21 respondents will record activities for compliance coating use.

f We have assumed that 197 respondents for this activity.

g We have assumed that 197 respondents will be involved in the storage, filing, maintenance and retrieval of records and reports twelve times per year.

h Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:











a We have assumed that the average number of respondents that will be subject to this rule will be 197. There will be eighteen additional new sources that will become subject to the rule over the three-year period of the ICR (i.e., six per year).

b This cost is based on the following labor rates which incorporates a 1.6 benefits multiplication factor to account for government overhead expenses: $65.71 for Managerial (GS-13, Step 5), $48.75 for Technical (GS-12, Step 1), and $26.38 Clerical (GS-6, Step 3). These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) “2018 General Schedule” which excludes locality rates of pay.

c We have assumed that this is a one-time activity for each new facility.

d Startup, shutdown, malfunction (SSM) reports are to be submitted twice a year with the required semiannual report. However, as estimated 20 percent of the respondents using parametric monitoring will submit an additional report for a non-conforming SSM.

e It is assumed that the agency will review summary reports twice per year.

f We have assumed that it will take the agency ten hours to review test results.

g Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.
