The National Emission Standards for
Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Plating and Polishing Area
Sources (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart WWWWWW) were proposed on March 14,
2008; promulgated on July 1, 2008; and most-recently amended on
both September 19, 2011 and November 19, 2020.1 These regulations
apply to both existing and new plating and polishing facilities
that are an area source of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions
and that use one or more of the following metal HAP: cadmium,
chromium, lead manganese, or nickel (hereafter referred to as the
plating and polishing metal HAP). 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. This information is being
collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart
WWWWWW.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
