The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Wood Furniture Manufacturing Operations (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart JJ) apply to both existing and new wood furniture manufacturing operations that are major sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). A major source is a stationary source or group of stationary sources that emit or have the potential to emit 10 tons per year (tpy) or more of a HAP or 25 tpy or more of a combination of HAPs. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after the date of proposal. These standards also apply to existing and new incidental sources and to area sources. These sources are only required to maintain purchase or usage records demonstrating that they meet the definition for incidental or area sources. Incidental and area sources are not subject to any other provisions of these standards. An incidental source, as defined in these standards, is a major source that is primarily engaged in the manufacture of products other than wood furniture or wood furniture components, and that uses no more than 100 gallons per month of finishing material or adhesives in the manufacture of wood furniture or wood furniture components. An area source is any stationary source that is not a major source.
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 63, Subpart JJ.
The increase in burden hours and the number of responses from the most-recently approved ICR is due to several adjustments: 1) this ICR accounts for the time for each source to refamiliarize themselves with the regulatory requirements each year; and 2) this ICR added in one-time requirements for reconstructed and modified sources that were missing from the previous renewal and edited the frequency of records to better match regulatory requirements. Overall, these changes resulted in an increase of 4,565 hours. Regarding the number of responses, this ICR adds in new responses for notifications of performance tests for reconstructed and modified sources, and it adds a row for 450 area sources that keep records but do not submit reports. In addition, it removed 406 responses for types and quantities of materials used, including VHAP and solids content data since these are record requirements, but not reports. Overall, these changes resulted in an increase of 49 responses.
