Assumptions: | ||||||||||||
a. We have assumed that there are approximately 52 sources currently subject to NSPS, subpart KK. We have assumed that there will be no new sources over the period of this ICR. Therefore, the average number of respondents per year is estimated to be 52. | ||||||||||||
b. The labor rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, September 2009, “Table 2. Civilian Workers, by occupational and industry group.” The rates are from column 1, “Total compensation.” The rate has been increased by 110% to account for the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry. | ||||||||||||
c. All sources are required to use Method 9 for opacity observations, except for lead oxide manufacturing facilities. | ||||||||||||
d. All respondents would have to perform Method 12 to calculate the lead concentration and the volumetric flow rate of the effluent gases. It requires at least three runs of 60 minutes and 0.85 dscm. | ||||||||||||
e. We have assumed that 20 percent of initial performance tests must be repeated due to failure. | ||||||||||||
f. Monitoring of emissions and operations requirements includes pressure drop measurements across the scrubbing system at least every 15 minutes, if applicable. We have assumed that 25% of the sources (i.e., 13 sources) have scrubbing systems. | ||||||||||||
h. Semi-annual reports are required by this rule for those sources that have to install continuous monitoring systems (e.g., pressure drop monitors across the scrubbing systems). |

Assumptions: | ||||||||||
a We have assumed that 20 percent of initial performance tests is typically repeated due to failure. | ||||||||||
b We have assumed that 25 percent of the 52 existing sources (i.e., 13 sources) have scrubber systems and are therefore, required to install and maintain a monitor to measure and record pressure drop across the scrubbing system, and submit semi-annual reports. | ||||||||||
c We have assumed that there will be no new sources over the three-year period of this ICR. Therefore, the Agency will have no burden associated with initial notifications and travel expenses to attend performance tests that can be attributed to 40 CFR part 60, subpart KK. |
