Abstract: The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Solvent Extraction for Vegetable Oil Production (40 CFR part 63, subpart GGGG) apply to existing facilities and new facilities with a vegetable oil production process and that is a major source of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) or is collocated with other sources that are individually or collectively a major source of HAP emissions. Owners and operators of affected facilities are required to comply with reporting and recordkeeping requirements for the General Provisions (40 CFR part 63, subpart A), as well as for the applicable specific standards. 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. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart GGGG.
Form numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: Facilities with a vegetable oil production process.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart GGGG).
Estimated number of respondents: 87 (total).
Frequency of response: Initially, occasionally, and annually.
Total estimated burden: 33,000 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $4,520,000 (per year), which includes $0 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
Changes in the estimates: There is a decrease of 1,100 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This decrease is due to a decrease in the number of sources.
