The guidelines can be thought of as model regulations that States use in developing State plans to implement the emission guidelines. If a state does not develop, adopt, and submit an approvable state plan, the Environmental Protection Agency

(EPA)must develop a Federal plan to implement the emission guidelines. These regulations apply to existing CISWI units (units that commenced construction on or before the date of proposal). In general, all Emissions Guidelines 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 60, subpart DDDD. *Form numbers:* None. *Respondents/affected entities:* Owners and operators of commercial and industrial solid waste incineration units. *Respondent's obligation to respond:* Mandatory (40 CFR part 60, subpart DDDD). *Estimated number of respondents:* 78 (total). *Frequency of response:* Initially, occasionally, semiannually, and annually. *Total estimated burden:* 10,400 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). *Total estimated cost:* $11,200,000 (per year), which includes $10,000,000 in annualized capital/startup and/or operation & maintenance costs. *Changes in the estimates:* There is an adjustment increase in the estimated burden cost and number of responses. The adjustment increase in burden from the most-recently approved ICR is due to an increase in the number of sources anticipated to remain subject to the provisions of Subpart DDDD since the last ICR renewal period, based on an inventory maintained by OAQPS. Specifically, the prior ICR assumed that a number of units in the incinerator subcategory would shut down based on amendments to the rule. However, a recent inventory of sources indicates that these incinerators remain in operation, and also identifies additional facilities with units in the small remote incinerators subcategory not previously included in the inventory. The adjustment increase in burden is due to more accurate estimates of existing sources. In addition, the burden hours were increased as a result of accounting for burden for each respondent to refamiliarize themselves with regulatory requirements each year.
