The telephone number for the Docket Center is 202-566-1744. For additional information about EPA's public docket, visit: *http://www.epa.gov/dockets* . *Abstract:* Entities potentially affected by this action are portland cement plants with the following emission units: Kilns, clinker coolers, raw mill systems, raw mill dryers, raw material storage, clinker storage, finished product storage, conveyor transfer points, bagging and bulk loading and unloading systems. Entities are required to submit initial notifications, conduct initial performance tests, and submit semiannual reports for exceedances and startups, shutdown and malfunctions. *Form Numbers:* None. *Respondents/affected entities:* Portland cement plants. *Respondent's obligation to respond:* Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, Subpart F). *Estimated number of respondents:* 96 (total). *Frequency of response:* Initially and semiannually. *Total estimated burden:* 14,535 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). *Total estimated cost:* $2,195,995 (per year), includes $774,234 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. *Changes in the Estimates:* There is an adjustment decrease in the respondent and Agency burden. This is not due to any program changes. The decrease occurred because we have modified the number of existing cement plants from 118 to 96 to reflect the latest industry data collected by the Agency's Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program. This revision provides a more accurate estimate for the portland cement sector, and results in an overall decrease in burden estimate. Spencer W. Clark, Acting Director, Collection Strategies Division. [FR Doc. 2014-16936 Filed 7-17-14; 8:45 am]
