    Abstract: Owners and operators of affected facilities are required 
to comply with reporting and record keeping requirements for the 
General Provisions (40 CFR part 60, subpart A), as well as for the 
specific requirements at 40 CFR part 60, subpart BBB. This includes 
submitting initial notifications, performance tests and periodic 
reports and results, and maintaining 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 reports are used by EPA to determine compliance 
with the standards.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Rubber tire manufacturing plants 
that commenced construction or modification after January 20, 1983.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, 
subpart BBB).
    Estimated number of respondents: 41 (total).
    Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, semiannually, and 
annually.
    Total estimated burden: 17,700 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).

[[Page 7819]]

    Total estimated cost: $1,850,000 (per year), which includes $16,400 
in either annualized capital/startup or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment increase in the 
total estimated burden and cost as currently identified in the OMB 
Inventory of Approved Burdens. This increase is not due to any program 
changes. The change in the respondent labor hour estimates occurred 
because of a change in assumption. This ICR assumes all existing 
respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements 
each year.

Director, Regulatory Support Division.
