For additional information about EPA's public docket, visit: *http://www.epa.gov/dockets.* *Abstract:* The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Inorganic Arsenic Emissions from Glass Manufacturing Plants (40 CFR part 61, subpart N) apply to each existing and new glass melting furnace that uses commercial arsenic as a raw material located at a glass manufacturing plant. These standards do not apply to pot furnaces; in addition, the standards do not consider re-bricking as construction or modification for the purposes of 40 CFR Section 61.05(a). New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. 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 with 40 CFR part 61, subpart N. *Form Numbers:* None. *Respondents/affected entities:* Glass manufacturing plants. *Respondent's obligation to respond:* Mandatory (40 CFR part 61, subpart N). *Estimated number of respondents:* 16 (total). *Frequency of response:* Initially, occasionally and semiannually. *Total estimated burden:* 3,100 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). *Total estimated cost:* $382,000 (per year), which includes $56,000 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. *Changes in the Estimates:* There is no change in labor hours or costs in this ICR compared to the previous ICR. This is due to two considerations:
(1)The regulations have not changed over the past three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three years; and
(2)the growth rate for the industry is very low or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden. Courtney Kerwin, Director, Regulatory Support Division. [FR Doc. 2018-23747 Filed 10-30-18; 8:45 am]
