previously applicable instructions and
requirements which have subsequently
changed; 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

Respondents/Affected Entities:
Manufacturers of on-highway, heavy-
duty engines, nonroad compression-
ignition and spark-ignition engines
(including engines used in recreational
vehicles), marine engines, locomotives
and locomotive engines.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
18.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
and quarterly.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
5,026.
Estimated Total Annual Cost:
$324,579, includes $571 annualized
capital or O&M costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There is an
increase of 609 hours in the total
estimated burden currently identified in
the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR
Burdens. This increase is an adjustment
to the estimates to reflect the fact that
new manufacturers will take more time
to perform certain tasks and to account
for an expected increase in respondents.

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR No. 1663.05,

ICR Status: This ICR is currently
scheduled to expire on March 31, 2007.
An Agency may not conduct or sponsor,
and a person is not required to respond
to, a collection of information, unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number. The OMB control numbers for
EPA’s regulations in title 40 of the CFR,
after appearing in the Federal Register
when approved, are listed in 40 CFR
part 9, are displayed either by
publication in the Federal Register or
by other appropriate means, such as on
the related collection instrument or
form, if applicable. The display of OMB
control numbers in certain EPA
regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR
part 9.
Abstract: The Clean Air Act (Act)
contains several provisions directing
EPA to require source owners to
conduct monitoring to support
certification as to their status of
compliance with applicable
requirements. These provisions are set
forth title V (operating permits
provisions) and title VII (enforcement
provisions) of the Act. Title V directs
EPA to implement monitoring and
certification requirements through the
operating permits program. Section
504(b) of the Act allows EPA to
prescribe by rule, methods and
procedures for determining compliance
recognizing that continuous emissions
monitoring systems need not be
required if other procedures or methods
provide sufficiently reliable and timely
information for determining
compliance. Under section 504(c), each
operating permit must ‘‘set forth
inspection, entry, monitoring,
compliance, certification, and reporting
requirements to assure compliance with
the permit terms and conditions.’’
Section 114(a)(3) requires EPA to
promulgate rules for enhanced
monitoring and compliance
certifications. Section 114(a)(1) of the
Act provides additional authority
concerning monitoring, reporting, and
record keeping requirements. This
section provides the Administrator with
the authority to require any owner or
operator of a source to install and
operate monitoring systems and to
record the resulting monitoring data.
EPA promulgated the Compliance
Assurance Monitoring (CAM) rule, 40
CFR part 64, on October 22, 1997 (62 FR
54900) to implement these authorities.
In accordance with these provisions,
the monitoring information that source
owners must submit must also be
available to the public, except as
26MRN1
 14098 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 57 / Monday, March 26, 2007 / Notices
entitled top protection from disclosure
as allowed in section 114(c) of the Act.
Burden Statement: We estimate the
annual public reporting and
recordkeeping burden for this collection
of information to average about 445
hours per response. Burden means the
total time, effort, or financial resources
expended by persons to generate,
maintain, retain, or disclose or provide
information 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 which have
subsequently changed; 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.
Based on the Agency’s knowledge of
the number of title V permits issued
since 1997 and the implementation of
part 64 through permit renewals, the
expected impact of the CAM program
for the 3 years from October 1, 2006
until September 30, 2009 is about 3.12
million hours annually. The CAM rule
will incur an average annual cost of
about $114.5 million in 2005 dollars.
There are no annualized capital and
operation and maintenance costs.
The CAM program potentially affects
about 25,000 pollutant-specific
emissions units nationwide. The annual
burden for source owners or operators is
about 3.1 million hours for pollutant-
specific emissions units combined. The
CAM rule will incur an average annual
cost of about $112 million in 2005
dollars. There are no annualized capital
and operational and maintenance costs
for monitoring programs in the cost
burden.
During the period, permitting
authorities will review CAM rule
submittals from source owners or
operators whose permits have already
been issued and are renewing those
permits as the 5-year permit terms
expire. Permitting authorities will also
be interacting with the source owners or
operators in addressing the CAM in
semi-annual monitoring reports and
reporting CAM data as necessary. We
cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
estimate the annual CAM burden to
permitting authorities to be about
37,000 hours and about $1.9 million.
The ICR provides a detailed
explanation of the Agency’s estimate,
which is only briefly summarized here:
VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:30 Mar 23, 2007 Jkt 211001
Respondents/Affected Entities:
Owners and operators of title V sources
with controlled pollutant specific
emissions units that have a pre-control
potential to emit major amounts of
regulated air pollutants and permitting
authorities.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
418 (sources plus permitting authorities,
annually)
Frequency of Response: Incremental
semi-annual and annual reports, plus
every 5 years at permit renewal.
Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
3,121,743 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Costs: $114.5
million. This includes annual labor
costs for sources and permitting
authorities and no capital or O&M costs.
Changes in the Estimate: There is an
increase of 3,058,055 hours in the total
estimated respondent annual burden
currently identified in the OMB
Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens.
This increase reflects the significant
increase in number of respondents
resulting from the implementation of
the rule and an increased number of
operating permit renewals, and EPA’s
reassessment of the reporting and
recordkeeping burdens associate with
implementing this rule.
