Short Characterization

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or the Agency) is promulgating federal
requirements under the UIC program for carbon dioxide (CO2) geologic sequestration (GS)
wells. GS is the process of injecting CO2 captured from an emission source (e.g., a power plant
or industrial facility) into deep subsurface rock formations for long-term storage. It is part of a
portfolio of options that could help reduce CO2 emissions to the atmosphere and mitigate climate
change. EPA’s Office of Ground Water and Drinking Water (OGWDW) is promulgating a
regulation that will require the collection of information to ensure a consistent approach to the
permitting application and monitoring requirements for all CO2 GS wells.
The GS Rule establishes a new class of injection well – Class VI – for GS projects based
on the unique challenges of preventing potential endangerment to underground sources of
drinking water (USDWs) from these operations. The GS Rule mandates technical criteria for
geological site characterization; determination of the area of review (AoR) and corrective action;
well construction and operation; mechanical integrity testing (MIT) and monitoring; and well
plugging, post-injection site care (PISC) and site closure. The regulation is based on the existing
Underground Injection Control (UIC) requirements found at 40 CFR Parts 144 through 148, with
new requirements added to address the unique nature of CO2 injection for GS. The purpose of
the rulemaking is to assure that GS is conducted in a manner that protects USDWs. The rule will
also help ensure consistent approaches to permitting GS operations across the United States.
Under the GS Rule, operators of GS wells must submit UIC permit applications, which
contain extensive geologic data and other information, to demonstrate that a site is suitable for
GS. Operators must also model the extent of the AoR, report on the status of corrective action on
wells in the AoR, and report on pre-operational logging and testing before obtaining an injection
permit. Throughout the injection project, operators will monitor the well and the site and submit
data to the permitting authority on a semi-annual basis. At least every 5 years they will reevaluate the AoR and update the AoR and Corrective Action Plan, as well as other plans as
needed. Permit holders will be required to plug their injection well(s) and monitor the site for a
default period of 50 years after injection has ended. Following PISC, operators would be
required to demonstrate non-endangerment to USDWs. Once closure of the site is authorized,
operators must close the site and submit a closure report.

States1 applying for primacy to oversee Class VI wells will need to submit a primacy
application as described in 40 CFR 145. Permitting authorities, which include states that obtain
primacy enforcement responsibility (primacy) to implement the Class VI program, as well as
EPA Regional offices that directly implement the Class VI program, will collect and review
permit applications and geological data from operators; receive and review testing and
monitoring data and updates to AoR and Corrective Action Plans throughout the injection phase;
review plugging reports and post-injection monitoring reports; and eventually authorize site
closure.
In the case where owners or operators seek a waiver from the requirement that Class VI
wells inject below the lowermost USDW, owners or operators must submit a supplemental report
demonstrating that such injection can be performed in a way that protects USDWs. EPA
Regional offices (and Headquarters) will approve applications for waivers from the requirement
to inject below the lowermost USDW, as well as review and approve Class VI primacy
applications.
EPA assumes that the GS Rule will be promulgated in 2011; this information collection
request (ICR) covers the 3-year period from 2011 through 2013. EPA assumes that 32 states will
apply for primacy during that time. It is estimated that approximately two owners or operators of
Class VI wells will apply for permits during the three-year ICR clearance period (or 0.6 owners
or operators annually). Of these operators 1 are assumed to be located in states with primacy; 0.8
are assumed to be in a state where EPA directly implements the UIC Program. This assumption
is based on the distribution of states that have primacy for other well classes, as described in
Chapter 5 of EPA’s Cost Analysis for the Federal Requirements Under the Underground
Injection Control Program for Carbon Dioxide Geologic Sequestration Wells.
This ICR does not estimate the total burden associated with the reporting and
recordkeeping requirements of the GS Rule. Instead, it calculates the incremental or net change
in burden associated with any new requirements of the rule, compared to existing UIC
requirements for Class I non-hazardous wells (the “baseline”). (Note to EPA: This draft of the
ICR is based on the GS requirements as specified in the May 11, 2010 draft of the rule.)
EPA estimates that the owners and operators of GS wells will incur an average annual net
change of 1,510 hours of respondent burden and $0.2 million in labor costs annually responding
to this information request. Annual capital and operations and maintenance (O&M) costs for
operators are estimated to increase by $ 5.8 million and $3.2 million, respectively. The average
annual net change cost for operators is $9.3 million. In order to perform the activities associated
with this ICR, EPA estimates that permitting authorities will incur an average annual net change
of 11,241 hours of burden and $0.6 million in total costs (all labor). Note, in this ICR, burden
incurred by EPA Regions directly implementing the Class VI rule is combined with burden
incurred by states to provide an overall burden for permitting authorities. Burden incurred by
EPA Regions overseeing states’ primacy programs and approving waiver applications is
presented separately as EPA burden. The estimated EPA burden will increase by 5,123 hours and
1

$0.3 million in total costs (all labor) annually. A summary of burden and cost associated with
this ICR can be found in Exhibit 6.1a.
The net change burden and costs associated with complying with the rule beyond the first
3 years after rule promulgation are estimated in Appendix A. Note that these calculations are for
informational purposes only and are not included in the burden for this ICR clearance period.
Appendix B estimates the total burden and costs for the selected alternative; Appendix C
estimates the total burden and costs for the baseline. These appendices are used to calculate the
net change burden and costs presented in Appendix A.
This ICR was prepared in accordance with the November 2005 version of EPA’s Guide
to Writing Information Collection Requests Under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995
(or “ICR Handbook”) prepared by EPA’s Office of Environmental Information, Office of
Information Collection, Collection Strategies Division. The ICR Handbook provides the most
current instructions for ICR preparation to ensure compliance with the 1995 PRA amendments
and the Office of Management and Budget’s (OMB) implementing guidelines.

NEED FOR AND USE OF COLLECTION

The following sections describe the need for this information collection and the legal
authority under which this information will be collected.
2(a)

Need/Authority for the Collection

EPA is promulgating the GS Rule to provide federal requirements for owners and
operators of CO2 GS wells to protect USDWs from potential contamination. EPA has authority
to regulate the injection of fluids, including CO2, into the subsurface under the Safe Drinking
Water Act (SDWA) of 1974, as amended in 1986 and in 1996. The UIC Program, to which this
regulation adds a sixth class of injection well, was promulgated under Part C of the SDWA. The
information collected under the GS Rule is required by EPA to carry out its monitoring and
enforcement responsibilities pertaining to UIC under the SDWA.
The GS Rule is based on the existing UIC regulatory framework found at 40 CFR Parts
144 through 148, with additional new requirements to address the unique nature of CO2 injection
for GS. The requirements are codified in a new Subpart H of 40 CFR Part 146. The GS Rule is
also meant to provide regulatory certainty and permitting consistency for CO2 GS projects.
The chief goal of any federally approved UIC Program is the protection of USDWs. This
includes not only those aquifers that are presently being used for drinking water, but also those
that can reasonably be expected to be used in the future. EPA has established through its UIC
Program regulations that underground aquifers with less than 10,000 mg/L total dissolved solids
(TDS) and containing a sufficient quantity of ground water to supply a public water system are
USDWs.
Section 1421 of the SDWA requires EPA to propose and promulgate regulations
specifying minimum requirements for effective state programs to prevent underground injection
that endangers drinking water sources. Section 1421(b) (3)(A) of the Act also provides that
EPA’s UIC regulations shall “permit or provide for consideration of varying geologic,
hydrological, or historical conditions in different states and in different areas within a state.”
EPA promulgated administrative and permitting regulations, now codified in 40 CFR parts 144
and 146, on May 19, 1980 (45 FR 33290), and technical requirements, in 40 CFR part 146, on
June 24, 1980 (45 FR 42472). The regulations were subsequently amended on August 27, 1981
(46 FR 43156), February 3, 1982 (47 FR 4992), January 21, 1983 (48 FR 2938), April 1, 1983
(48 FR 14146), May 11, 1984 (49 FR 20138), July 26, 1988 (53 FR 28118), December 3, 1993
(58 FR 63890), June 10, 1994 (59 FR 29958), December 14, 1994 (59 FR 64339), June 29, 1995
(60 FR 33926), December 7, 1999 (64 FR 68546), May 15, 2000 (65 FR 30886), June 7, 2002
(67 FR 39583), and November 22, 2005 (70 FR 70513).
2(b)

Use/Users of the Data

Owners and operators of CO2 injection wells will use information collected in preparing
their permit applications and associated plans and reports (including the Testing and Monitoring
Plan, AoR and Corrective Action Plan, Injection Well Plugging Plan, PISC and Site Closure

Plan, and Emergency and Remedial Response Plan) to construct, operate, and close their
injection well sites. They will use the data they collect to determine whether they are complying
with permit conditions and to determine whether corrective action or operational adjustments are
needed. They will also use ambient monitoring data to detect whether the CO2 plume has
migrated outside of the injection zone.
Permitting authorities will use the operator-submitted permit applications and associated
plans and reports (including the Testing and Monitoring Plan, AoR and Corrective Action Plan,
Injection Well Plugging Plan, PISC and Site Closure Plan, and Emergency and Remedial
Response Plan) to determine whether a proposed site is suitable for CO2 GS, whether the
proposed well meets the criteria specified in the GS Rule, and whether a permit should be
granted. They will use demonstrations of financial responsibility to ensure that the owner or
operator is able to pay for operation and any remediation that may be required. Permitting
authorities will review testing and monitoring reports as well as periodic AoR re-evaluations and
plans to make sure that Class VI injection wells are in compliance and that no fluid movement
into or endangerment to USDWs has occurred. Permitting authorities will use reports submitted
during PISC to assure that the CO2 plume has not moved beyond the confining zone and is not
endangering USDWs, and before site closure is authorized the CO2 plume has stabilized and
poses no threat to USDWs.
EPA will review the state applications for Class VI primacy and determine if the
proposed state UIC Class VI program can be implemented in a manner that protects USDWs
before approving the program.

NON-DUPLICATION, CONSULTATIONS, AND OTHER COLLECTION
CRITERIA

3(a)

Non-duplication

EPA has searched the Federal Information Locator System (FILS) in an effort to ensure
nonduplication of the data collection efforts. To the best of the Agency’s knowledge, data
currently required by the GS Rule are not available from any other source.2
3(b)

Public Notice Required Prior to ICR Submission to OMB

As part of the Federal Register notice on the proposed GS Rule, EPA solicited comments
on this information collection and the estimates in this ICR. EPA solicited comments on specific
aspects of the proposed information collection, as described below:
1)
2)
3)
4)

Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the
functions of the Agency, including whether the information will have practical utility;
Whether the Agency’s burden estimate is accurate including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
How to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and
How to minimize the burden on respondents, including use of appropriate automated
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.

EPA did not receive comments that specifically referred to the ICR prepared for the
proposed rule; however, it received several comments (such as the need to increase unit costs) on
the associated cost analysis, as well as the technology and cost (T&C) document (which contains
many of the unit costs used to estimate costs for the cost analysis and the ICR). For the final rule,
EPA revised many of the unit costs to incorporate those comments; these changes have been
incorporated into this ICR. For example, EPA increased the cost associated with seismic surveys
conducted as part of site characterization by 30 percent, the labor burden for preparing semiannual reports by 25 percent, and the loaded labor rates for geologists and engineers preparing
permit applications by approximately 75 percent.
EPA’s responses to comments received on the proposed rule are available at
http://www.regulations.gov, docket number EPA-HQ-OW-2008-0390.
In compliance with the PRA (44 USC 3501 et seq.), EPA submitted the ICR for the GS
Rule to OMB for review and approval prior to proposal. EPA did not receive any comments
from OMB on the ICR at that time.

2

Simultaneous development of the Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gases: Injection and Geologic
Sequestration of CO2 Rule (Subpart RR) and the proposed GS Rule is being coordinated by EPA, with close
consideration for potential overlaps in reporting and recordkeeping requirements. Based on the coordinated rule
making efforts, EPA is minimizing the potential overlap in reporting and recordkeeping requirements to owners and
operators of wells that may be required to report and record information under both rules.

Consultations

As described in the previous section, the burden and costs estimated in this ICR are based
on the T&C document developed for the GS Rule, which was informed by states, U.S.
Department of Energy (DOE), and public comment. Prior to proposal, the costs in the T&C
document were reviewed by members of the EPA regulatory workgroup, which included four
states and the DOE that developed the regulation. For the final rule, EPA revised the T&C
document to reflect public comments, as described in the previous section. In addition,
throughout the rulemaking process, the Agency conducted public workshops and public
hearings, held consultations with specific groups, and attended meetings to ensure transparency
and facilitate communication with the public and stakeholder groups interested in GS
technologies, deployment, and associated technical and regulatory issues.
As part of its outreach, EPA conducted public hearings with participants from industry,
environmental groups, utilities, academia, states, and the general public. Two separate public
hearings were held on the proposed GS Rule in September and October 2008, respectively.
Additionally, a public hearing to solicit public comment on the Notice of Data Availability and
Request for Comment (NODA) was held in September 2009. Two workshops were also held in
December 2007 and February 2008. Summaries are available on EPA’s web site, at
http://www.epa.gov/safewater/uic/wells_sequestration.html.
EPA also coordinated with the Ground Water Protection Council (GWPC), a state
association that focuses on ensuring safe application of injection well technology and protecting
ground water resources, and the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission (IOGCC), a
chartered state association representing oil and gas producing states. Members of IOGCC have
specific expertise regulating the injection of CO2 for the enhanced recovery of oil and gas in
depleted oil and gas reservoirs. EPA staff attended national meetings and calls of these
organizations, as well as those held by technical and trade organizations, NGOs, states, and
Tribal organizations, to discuss the rulemaking process and GS-specific technical issues.
In April of 2008, prior to publication of the proposed rule and during development of the
final rule, the Agency consulted with all Federally-recognized Indian Tribes and invited
participation in a dedicated GS consultation effort. The EPA Regional Indian Coordinators
(RICS), National Indian Workgroup (NIWG), National Tribal Caucus (NTC) and the National
Tribal Water Council contacts were also invited to participate in the consultation. EPA provided
additional rulemaking updates after publication of the proposal with the above-mentioned groups
as well as the National Water Program State and Tribal Climate Change Council. The Fort Peck
Assiniboine & Sioux Tribes and the Navajo Nation received UIC Program primacy for the Class
II program (under section 1425 of the SDWA) during the proposal period for this rule.
Therefore, the Agency initiated an additional consultation effort with these Tribal co-regulators
post-proposal. Documentation of these meetings is available in the Rulemaking docket.
3(d)

Effects of Less Frequent Collection

The testing and monitoring frequencies for some requirements under the GS Rule will be
established as permit conditions; others, including MITs, are established by regulation. The GS

July 2010

Rule will require other parameters to be monitored continuously. These monitoring frequencies
are based on existing UIC Program regulations for other well classes. EPA believes that the
monitoring and reporting frequencies established in the GS Rule are the minimum necessary to
ensure that any leakage would be detected.

3(e)

General Guidelines

The GS Rule complies with the guidelines (5 CFR 1320.5(d)(2)) implemented under the
PRA, with some exceptions. One exception is that it requires a response to a request for
information in less than 30 days, in opposition to the PRA guidelines. Specifically, the GS Rule
requires notification of the permitting authority within 24 hours if a well loses mechanical
integrity or if injection may cause endangerment to a USDW. This is consistent with notification
requirements for permitted wells under existing UIC regulations. The other exceptions are that
many recordkeeping requirements are longer than PRA guidelines. This longer period reflects
current UIC Program practices consistent with the time frame associated with the operational and
post-operational requirements for Class VI injection wells.
3(f)

Confidentiality

Owners and operators of injection wells may claim confidentiality on certain information
provided in the proposed Class VI injection well permit application, as provided in existing
regulations in 40 CFR 144.5, Confidentiality of Information. If confidentiality is requested, the
confidential information is treated in accordance with the provisions of 40 CFR 2, Public
Information. Any confidentiality claim must be made at the time of Class VI injection well
permit application submission in the manner prescribed by the application form or its
instructions. In the case of other submissions, respondents may claim confidentiality by stamping
the words “confidential business information” (CBI) on each page containing such information.
Claims of confidentiality for the following information will be denied:


The name and address of any permit applicant or permittee;



Information regarding the existence, absence, or level of contaminants in drinking
water.

Information collected under this ICR is intended for the Agency’s and/or state’s internal
use and there are no plans to routinely release or publish any of the data. However, if no claim of
confidentiality is made at the time of submission, the information can be made available to the
public without further notice. Also, all information that is not deemed to be confidential will be
released to the public if requested under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA).
3(g)

Sensitive Questions

The data collection does not ask any sensitive questions concerning sexual behaviors or
attitudes, religious beliefs, or other matters.



Any updates to the proposed AoR and Corrective Action Plan, Testing and
Monitoring Plan, Injection Well Plugging Plan, PISC and Site Closure Plan, or the
Emergency and Remedial Response Plan needed to address new information
collected during logging and testing; and



Any other information requested by the Director.

Once an operating permit has been issued, EPA will require semi-annual reports of the
following (40 CFR 146.91(a)):


The characteristics of injection fluids, injection pressure, flow rate, volume, and
annular pressure;



A description of any events that required shutdown or that resulted in an exceedance
of operating parameters specified in the permit; and



The results of any monitoring conducted under the Monitoring and Testing Plan.

Although reporting is semi-annual, many of the monitoring requirements are more
frequent; some are continuous. Some frequencies are specified in the GS Rule; others will be
site-specific and will be established and documented in the Monitoring and Testing Plan.
Within 30 days, owners must report results of MITs, well workovers, and any other test
required by the Director (40 CFR 146.91(b)). They must also notify the director 30 days in
advance of a planned well workover, planned stimulation activities, or any other planned test of
the well (40 CFR 146.91(d)).

Certain events require the owner or operator to notify the state within 24 hours. These are
associated with triggers indicating potential endangerment to USDWs and include the following
(40 CFR 146.91(c)):


Evidence that the injected CO2 stream and associated pressure front may cause
endangerment to a USDW;



Noncompliance with a permit condition, or a problem with the injection system, that
may cause fluid migration into or between USDWs;



Any triggering of a shut-off system;



Failure to maintain mechanical integrity; and



Any release of gas to the atmosphere or biosphere, where soil or air monitoring is
required.

At least every 5 years (or when changes in site-specific operational conditions established
up front and specified in the plans warrant re-evaluation), operators must also re-evaluate the
AoR and submit an amended AoR and Corrective Action Plan, as needed, along with the status
of phased corrective action to the permitting authority (40 CFR 146.84). Operators must also
periodically update the cost information supporting their financial responsibility determinations
and annually provide an inflation update (40 CFR 146.85). The final rule also requires owners
and operators to revise their monitoring and testing and emergency and Remedial Response
Plans at least every 5 years, as needed, based on the AoR reevaluation or other relevant data.
Where no revision is needed, owners or operators must demonstrate that this is the case (40 CFR
146.90; 40 CFR 146.94).
Following the injection phase (i.e., during well plugging and PISC) the owner or operator
must submit the following information (40 CFR 146.92; 40 CFR 146.93):


A notification of intent to plug injection wells, along with any revisions made to the
original Plugging Plan submitted with the permit application;



A plugging report after plugging is complete;



A revised PISC and Site Closure Plan;



Periodic reports of the results of post-injection ground water quality monitoring and
the position of the CO2 plume;



A non-endangerment demonstration that the CO2 plume has stabilized and there is no
threat to USDWs following the PISC period;



Notice of intent for site closure and, if needed, a revised PISC and Site Closure Plan;
and



A site closure report and copy of recording of a notation on the deed to the property
regarding the fact that injection occurred.

Permitting Authorities
Permitting authorities will be required to review all the items submitted by owners and
operators (see above).
States seeking primacy for administrating a Class VI program must receive approval for
their program from EPA. States that do not currently have primacy under SDWA Section 1422
must include the following (40 CFR 145.22):


A letter from the governor requesting program approval;



A complete program description (as described in 40 CFR 145.23);



An attorney general’s statement;



A memorandum of agreement (MOA) with the Regional administrator;



Copies of all applicable state statutes and regulations; and



A showing of the state’s public participation activities.

According to the GS Rule, states may submit their Class VI primacy application
electronically.
4(b)(ii) Respondent Activities
Owners and Operators
In general, owners and operators seeking to obtain permits for CO2 GS wells will be
involved in the following collection activities:


Reading and understanding the GS Rule;



Gathering new or existing geological data and other site information required as part
of the permit application, including maps, geological and geochemical data, and data
on existing wells in the AoR;



Developing plans and procedures that must be submitted with the permit application,
including the proposed operating data, proposed formation testing program, proposed
stimulation program, proposed injection procedure, schematics of well construction,
Testing and Monitoring Plan, proposed area of review and Corrective Action Plan,
injection well construction procedures, proposed Injection Well Plugging Plan,
proposed PISC and Site Closure Plan, and proposed emergency and Remedial
Response Plan (40 CFR 146.82(a));



Developing a report including the information required as part of a waiver
application, if applying for a waiver (40 CFR 146.82(d));

DRAFT – Do not Cite, Quote, or Distribute

Page 13

GS Rule ICR

July 2010



Demonstrating financial responsibility and resources for corrective action, injection
well plugging, post-injection site care and closure, and emergency and remedial
response; and



Compiling the above information and preparing the permit application.

After submitting the UIC permit application but before beginning operation of a Class VI
well, owners and operators must conduct testing and submit additional information. Activities
include the following:


Submitting all logging and testing data; results of formation testing; and data on
compatibility of the CO2 stream with fluids and minerals in the injection and
confining zones, and well materials;



Demonstrating mechanical integrity of the well;



Calculating the AoR using computational models, based on data obtained during
logging and testing; and



Providing information on status of corrective action on wells in the AoR.

Once operation commences, owners and operators must monitor the well and submit
semi-annual reports. They must monitor the following:


Chemical and physical characteristics of the CO2 stream;



Injection pressure, flow rate and volume, and pressure on the annulus, and annulus
fluid volume (using continuous recording devices);



Alarms and automatic shut-off systems; and



Corrosion of well materials.

In addition, at least once per year operators must demonstrate external mechanical
integrity and report the results of testing. Throughout the injection phase, operators must monitor
ground water quality, track the CO2 plume and pressure front, and perform any soil gas/ surface
air monitoring or other required monitoring, as specified in their approved Testing and
Monitoring Plans.
At least every 5 years, the owner or operator must re-evaluate the AoR by rerunning the
delineation models to incorporate operational and monitoring data. Based on this, the operator
must revise the AoR and Corrective Action Plan, if needed. This reevaluation also triggers
revisions to monitoring and testing, injection well plugging, PISC and site closure, and
emergency and Remedial Response Plans every 5 years, as needed. Where no revision is needed,
owners or operators must demonstrate that none is required.
At the end of an injection project, the operator must submit a notice of intent to plug the
injection well and a revised PISC and Site Closure Plan. During the PISC phase, operators will

Page 14

GS Rule ICR

July 2010

monitor ground water quality, track the position of the CO2 plume as well as report to the
permitting authority on the results as specified in their approved PISC Plans. Following the postinjection monitoring, operators will perform a non-endangerment demonstration to show that
there is no threat to USDWs, and that no further monitoring is necessary. At this point, if closure
of the site is authorized, the owner or operator must submit a site closure report and must record
a notation on the deed to the property regarding the fact that injection occurred on the site.
Recordkeeping activities include maintaining the AoR and Corrective Action Plan, the
Well Plugging Plan, the Emergency and Remedial Response plan, and the PISC and Site Closure
Plan. Operators must also maintain and adjust cost information associated with their financial
responsibility determinations.
Additionally, owners and operators of Class VI wells are required to keep records
associated with permit application throughout the life of the geologic sequestration project and
until 10 years after site closure. Owners and operators must also keep all reports required by 40
CFR 146.90(b) through 146.90(i) for 10 years. Data on the nature and composition of all injected
fluids must be kept until 10 years after site closure, and the Director may require owners and
operators to deliver these records to the Director at the conclusion of the required period. The
Director may require owners and operators to keep any of the above records for longer than 10
years after site closure (40 CFR 146.91(f)).
Permitting Authorities
Permitting authorities may serve in the role of respondents when reviewing and
evaluating information and reports submitted by owners or operators. Permitting authorities are
anticipated to be involved in the following activities:


Read and understand the rule; train staff;



Modify or develop data management systems to receive and evaluate information
related to GS activities, as required;



Review permit applications and prepare permits; issue notice and oversee public
comment period on draft permit;



Review waiver applications and issue public notice on proposed waiver, if applicable;



Review pre-operational testing and logging data, AoR evaluations, and the status of
corrective action;



Review semi-annual and occasional reports from operators;



Review AoR re-evaluations and updates to the AoR and Corrective Action Plan;



Review updates to other plans triggered by AoR re-evaluations and/or other data;



Modify permits as necessary to incorporate and reflect updated plans;



Review notices of intent to plug wells;



Review post-injection monitoring data and non-endangerment demonstrations and
determine whether to authorize site closure;

States are required to maintain records of Class VI injection well operation verification
activities and each determination made, and report to EPA under the UIC program in accordance
with reporting requirements at 40 CFR 144.8 through the UIC Program.
States must develop and submit their proposed UIC Class VI program to EPA for

INFORMATION COLLECTED—AGENCY ACTIVITIES, COLLECTION
METHODOLOGY, AND INFORMATION MANAGEMENT

The following sections describe the Agency activities related to analyzing, maintaining,
and distributing the information collected.
5(a)

Agency Activities

The Agency will be responsible for promulgating the GS Rule and overseeing its
implementation. EPA Regions and EPA Headquarters will have different responsibilities. If a
state does not seek or obtain approval for primacy of the Class VI program, EPA Regions will
directly implement the program (see section 4b(ii) of this document). (For this ICR, the burden
for EPA Regions conducting these implementation activities is combined with that for states
with primacy to provide an overall burden for all permitting authorities.) Regions will review
primacy applications submitted by the states in coordination with EPA headquarters. Lastly,
Regions review waiver applications after states with primacy make an initial recommendation on
whether to grant a waiver. The Regions will concur or not concur with the states’ decision
(146.95(d)(2)).
Headquarters will also be responsible for updating the UIC database to enable it to hold
Class VI compliance data and permit application data.
5(b)

Collection Methodology and Management

EPA will require the reporting of data from owners or operators in an electronic format
acceptable to the Director for site, facility, and monitoring information.4 Long-term retention of
records in an electronic format may also be required at the Director's discretion. For records
stored in an electronic format, information should be maintained digitally in multiple locations
(i.e., backed-up) in accordance with best practices for electronic data.
Electronic reporting involves transmitting UIC data in a standard electronic format that
can be readily incorporated into Headquarters UIC databases without manual data entry.
Electronic reporting supports the Agency’s effort to streamline the UIC Program by reducing the
reporting burden on the states and improving EPA’s data collection methods. Electronic
reporting offers an opportunity to:


Reduce data entry;



Reduce mailing costs;



Reduce the routine process of handling paperwork;

4

To provide flexibility to owners and operators, during the initial year after rule promulgation, the UIC database
will accept either hardcopy or electronic data submissions.

Page 17

GS Rule ICR

July 2010



Reduce or eliminate the need to store large quantities of paper documents; and



Increase the accuracy of reports submitted to EPA.

In 2007, EPA began creating a national UIC database for well, facility, and compliance
data submitted by permitting authorities. The national UIC data model contains approximately
120 data elements related to various aspects of the UIC Program. At this time, several permitting
authorities are actively participating in use of the national UIC database. EPA encourages states
to work with EPA Regional offices as much as possible in order to use the new database system
for reporting of information regarding Class VI wells. The database includes a mechanism to
electronically transfer data between existing state and EPA Regional databases and
Headquarters’ database, eliminating the need for state UIC Program Directors to complete paper
reporting forms. (The burden and cost associated with developing and maintaining the national
UIC database is accounted for in the UIC Program ICR; the GS Rule is assumed to add a
negligible cost to this requirement due to the small number of GS sites.)
5(c)

Small Entity Flexibility

In general, a small entity is defined as: (1) a small business with annual revenue less than
$6 million according to Small Business Administration size standards; (2) a small governmental
jurisdiction that is a government of a city, county, town, school district or special district with a
population of less than 50,000; or (3) a small organization that is any not-for-profit enterprise
which is independently owned and operated and is not dominant in its field. In some cases,
however, industries propose different standards for small businesses.
EPA expects that Class VI wells will be owned and operated by fossil fuel power
generators, oil and gas extraction companies, and oil and gas refineries. Because the resources
necessary to construct injection wells that meet the standards of the GS Rule are significant, EPA
believes that none of the owners or operators of Class VI wells will be small entities. Therefore,
EPA assumes that the GS Rule will cause no significant impact on small entities.
5(d)

Collection Schedule

The final GS Rule is scheduled for promulgation in 2011; this ICR covers the first three
years of implementation (2011 through 2013). States wishing to obtain EPA approval for their
Class VI programs will complete and submit Class VI primacy applications to EPA within 270
days of GS Rule promulgation. Under 40 CFR 145.31(e), EPA has 90 days to review each
application. No other deadlines apply to owners or operators or to states during the ICR
clearance period.
Because this ICR covers only the first three years of a regulation that will cover injection
operations with potentially long life spans (i.e., up to 40 years of injection and 50 years of postinjection monitoring), EPA assumes that only a limited portion of the paperwork burden for GS
projects will be captured in this ICR. EPA anticipates that the majority of the activities during
the information collection will be associated with states applying for primacy.

EPA estimates that approximately two operators are assumed to submit permit
applications during the ICR clearance period. Operators will conduct these activities during the
second and third years of the ICR period. EPA predicts that CO2 GS well operators will begin to
submit monitoring data and conduct MIT during the third year, but that they will not perform
AoR re-evaluations, plug their injection wells, or perform PISC within the period covered by this
ICR.
EPA estimates that up to 32 states will apply for primacy in the first year of the
collection. This is a conservative estimate based on the number of states with existing plans for
GS operations or with existing Class II wells that may be subject to conversion to Class VI.
Permitting authorities will review permit applications during the second and third years
of the ICR period.

ESTIMATING BURDEN AND COST OF COLLECTION

This section contains EPA’s estimates of the burden and costs to respondents (i.e., well
owner/operators and permitting authorities) associated with CO2 GS Rule paperwork
requirements, and federal burden and costs for reviewing respondent submissions. Section 6(a)
provides burden estimates for all respondent types. Section 6(b) contains estimates of respondent
costs for the information collection. Section 6(c) summarizes federal burden and costs as users of
respondent data. Section 6(d) describes the respondent universe and the total burden and cost of
this collection to respondents. Section 6(e) presents bottom line burden and costs for all
respondents, and the burden statement for this information collection is in Section 6(f).
The burden and cost estimates for this ICR were derived from unit cost estimates in the
Geologic CO2 Sequestration Technology and Cost Analysis (USEPA, 2010x). Because so many
activities are included in each rule requirement, the unit burden and cost associated with each
activity are not shown in this section but are presented in detail in Chapter 5 (and associated
appendices) of the Cost Analysis for the Final GS Rule (USEPA, 2010x). Appendix A, Ex. A.1.1
of this ICR contains a detailed list of each activity for which owner or operator burden is
incurred (and for which a unit burden and cost has been estimated). Each activity is assigned an
identification number (e.g., A-2) used to identify the activity in subsequent exhibits. Activities
are grouped into larger categories that generally correspond to specific rule sections. For
instance, under the site characterization category (which corresponds to 40 CFR 146.82),
activities include seismic surveys to identify faults and fractures in confining units, analysis of
seismic history, literature searches to obtain geomechanical information, and cores and tests to
obtain geomechanical information, among others. Similarly, a list of activities for permitting
authorities is presented in Exhibit A.2.1.
Because site characterization costs for GS wells differ with the geology of the site, the
size of the project, and whether an operator applies for a waiver, EPA estimated burden and cost
for five different types of GS projects. EPA divided the projects by formation type into saline
formations and depleted oil and gas reservoirs (Enhanced Recovery (ER) operations) and then
further subdivided based on whether the owner or operator was applying for a waiver and the
size of the project. The five categories of projects are below:






Saline formation, pilot-scale;
Saline formation, large-scale, non-waivered;
Saline formation, large-scale, waivered;
Depleted oil and gas reservoir, (ER, large-scale) non-waivered; and
Depleted oil and gas reservoir, (ER, large-scale) waivered.

For each type of project, the appendices present burden and costs incurred by owners and
operators, and by permitting authorities. Appendix A presents the incremental burden and costs
for moving from the information collection requirements of the UIC program for the baseline
scenario (Class I non-hazardous wells) to the selected alternative (Class VI rule) over the ten
years following rule promulgation. EPA assumes that without the GS Rule, owners and operators
would have constructed and operated GS wells according to UIC requirements for Class I nonhazardous wells, the standard used for construction of many experimental GS wells. Reporting

and recordkeeping burden and costs for the selected alternative and baseline are presented in
Appendix B and C, respectively. The incremental burden and costs presented in Appendix A are
obtained by subtracting the burden and cost for complying with the baseline scenario from the
full burden and cost of complying with the selected alternative.
EPA estimates that the average annual net change burden (for owners/operators,
permitting authorities, and the Agency) for the ICR clearance period is 17,874 hours, for a total
of 53,622 burden hours. The average annual net change cost is $10.1 million, for a total cost of
$30.2 million from 2011 through 2013. Average annual net change burden and costs are
provided in Exhibit 6.1a below.

2. “Annual Burden Hours” reflects an annual average for all project types over the 3-year ICR period.

The annual average net change burden to owners and operators of Class VI wells
nationwide during the ICR clearance period is estimated to be 1,510 hours. The activities during
the ICR clearance period include the following: preparing the permit application and applying
for waivers (ten percent of owners and operators are assumed to apply for waivers), performing
geological site characterization, developing necessary plans, and pre-operational testing and
reporting, including modeling the AoR and performing all pre-operational corrective action.
Owners and operators will also begin collecting operating and monitoring data as required by the
Monitoring and Testing Plan and will begin submitting semi-annual reports. They will also begin
periodic MIT. The burden is assumed to be incurred by owners and operators with projects in
large saline aquifers. No pilot saline projects or enhanced recovery projects are expected to begin
during the ICR period.
EPA does not expect that any operators will conduct activities associated with periodic
AoR re-evaluations, plan updates, injection well plugging, or PISC during the three years
covered by this ICR. These will occur in subsequent ICR periods (see Appendix A, Exhibit A.3.2
for net change burden for years 4-10 following promulgation.
EPA recognizes that many UIC information collection activities are performed by
contractors. The operator unit burden estimates reported in this section represent a composite of
the operator time required to both perform an information collection activity and to supervise a
contractor when the contractor performs the activity. Contractor services are not generally
broken out into labor and other costs for this ICR; therefore, all contractor costs are considered
O&M costs.

6(a)(ii) Burden to Permitting Authorities
Permitting authorities’ burden associated with implementing Class VI programs arises
from program oversight and reviewing and responding to permit applications (including
applications for waivers from the requirements to inject below the lowermost USDW) and preoperational reports, operator testing and monitoring reports, AoR re-evaluations, and plugging
and post-injection reports submitted by operators. Note that permitting authority burden includes
burden for EPA Regions directly implementing the Class VI rule in states that do not have
primacy, as well as burden for states. Average annual net change permitting authority burden
associated with oversight of Class VI programs is presented in Exhibit 6.1c.

Notes:
1. Detail may not add exactly to total due to independent rounding.
2. “Annual Burden Hours” reflects an annual average for all project types over the 3-year ICR period.
3. The net change in “Annual Burden” for large saline non-waivered projects is positive due to an increase in the
burden for permitting authorities to review monitoring reports submitted by operators under the selected alternative
in comparison to the baseline.

EPA estimates that the average annual net change burden to permitting authorities
associated with this information collection will be 11,241 hours. The burden is allocated as
follows:


The majority of the burden is associated with completing primacy applications and
staff training, which will impose an average annual net change burden of 11,221
hours during the 3 years covered by this ICR, as shown in the “Project Independent
Activities” row of Exhibit 6.1c. EPA estimates that applying for primacy will require
0.5 full-time equivalents (FTEs), or 1,040 hours, per state.



Permitting authorities will spend an average of 19 hours annually overseeing
approximately two Class VI well operators. This includes reviewing permit and
waiver applications (if needed) for Class VI wells, writing permits, and reviewing
AoR studies and pre-operational data. EPA estimates that 56 percent of the burden for

DRAFT – Do not Cite, Quote, or Distribute

Page 23

GS Rule ICR

July 2010

these activities will be incurred by states and 44 percent will be incurred by EPA
Regions. Ten percent of applications received from large scale projects are assumed
to include waiver applications. Permitting authorities will also begin to review
operational and monitoring data submitted in semi-annual reports, along with MIT
results.
During the ICR clearance period, EPA predicts that primacy agencies will not spend any
time reviewing AoR re-evaluations, updates to AoR and Corrective Action Plans and other plans,
or plugging and post-injection monitoring reports submitted by operators of Class VI sites,
because no sites are expected to reach that phase during this period. This burden is expected to
be incurred after the ICR clearance period. Appendix A, Exhibit A.3.2 presents the burden and
costs for years 1-10 following rule promulgation.

6(b)

Estimating Respondent Costs

6(b)(i) Costs to Operators
Exhibit 6.1b shows the average annual net change costs for owners and operators of Class
VI injection wells over the 3-year ICR clearance period. The average annual net change costs are
approximately $9.3 million, which consists of $0.2 million in labor costs, $5.8 in capital costs
and $3.2 million in O&M costs. An example of capital costs associated with reporting
requirements under the GS Rule is installation and construction of monitoring wells. Examples
of O&M costs include sampling costs, such as those for samples collected to develop
geochemical baselines for the injection and confining zones.
For costing purposes, EPA estimated the base hourly labor rates for two occupations:
geologists and mining and geological engineers. EPA obtained the rates for geologists from the
American Association of Petroleum Geologists’ 2008-2009 annual salary survey. Assuming 1519 years of experience, the rate is $67.02 (based on an annual salary of $139,400).5 EPA
obtained rates for mining and geological engineers from the Society for Petroleum Engineers
annual survey. For a reservoir engineer with 11-15 years of experience, the rate is $69.14 (based
on an annual salary of $143,800).6 EPA multiplied these rates by a loading factor of 1.6, as
suggested by EPA’s November 2005 ICR Handbook, to account for overhead and benefits. Thus,
the loaded labor rate for geologists is $107.23, and the rate for engineers is $110.62.

6(b)(ii) Costs to Permitting Authorities
Exhibit 6.1c shows that the average annual net change cost to permitting authorities is
estimated at $0.6 million, all of which is labor cost. For this ICR, EPA assumed that the average
hourly labor rate for a state employee is $30.90, based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics average
hourly wage for workers in the life, physical, and social science occupations in 2008.7 This rate
was multiplied by 1.6 to get a loaded rate of $49.44. The base hourly labor rate for EPA Regions
directly implementing the Class VI program in states without primacy is $31.34. This rate is
based on federal employee pay scales issued by the U.S. Office of Personnel and Management8
and was multiplied by 1.6 for a loaded rate of $50.14. As described in section 6(a)(ii), EPA
estimates that 56 percent of the burden associated with reviewing permit applications will be
incurred by states, and 44 percent will be incurred by EPA Regions.
The incremental non-labor costs (capital and O&M) to permitting authorities associated
with the Class VI program are estimated to be negligible.

6(c)

Estimating Agency Burden and Costs

EPA Regions will have oversight responsibilities for the Class VI program. These include
reviewing primacy applications, as well as reviewing waiver applications after states have
reviewed them (in states that do not have primacy, burden to EPA Regions for reviewing waiver
applications is counted as permitting authority burden). Regions will review primacy
applications submitted by the states and reviewing waiver applications passed on by states.
EPA estimates that EPA Headquarters will spend 2 FTEs, or 4,160 hours, annually to
update the data systems to manage Class VI data.
The total annual net change Agency burden associated with the reporting and
recordkeeping requirements of the GS Rule is 5,123 hours. As explained in section 6(b)(ii), EPA
assumes the average hourly labor rate for salary and overhead and benefits for Agency staff to be
$50.14. The annual net change Agency cost associated with this collection is $0.3 million. A
summary of Agency costs is presented in Exhibit 6.1d.

Respondent Universe

In this section, EPA describes the number of respondents subject to each paperwork
activity in this ICR. The respondent universe is based on EPA’s assumptions of the number of
permittees subject to each paperwork requirement, e.g., the number of permit applications
expected, or the percent of permittees subject to monitoring or reporting requirements and the
frequency with which they must comply with those requirements. The frequency at which each
activity is performed is presented in the burden and cost tables.
EPA estimates that 32 states will apply for and gain primacy within the first year of the
clearance period. This number represents 56 percent of the 57 states, tribes, and territories
currently active in the UIC program, as described in Chapter 5 of the Cost Analysis document.
EPA assumes that no tribes will seek primacy for Class VI wells during the information
collection period.
EPA estimates that approximately two GS projects will begin the deployment process in
years two and three of the ICR clearance period. This is based on the deployment schedule in the
cost model for the Cost Analysis for the Final GS Rule (USEPA, 2010x). EPA predicts that
approximately one of two GS projects will be located in states with primacy; thus it is estimated
that approximately one state will incur paperwork burden associated with operator submittals.
EPA assumes the other GS project will be permitted under the authority of a program directly
implemented by the EPA Regions.
During the three years covered by this ICR, approximately two operators will apply for a
permit (including those who apply for a waiver); this equals an average of 0.6 operators
submitting permit applications per year.

Bottom Line Annual Burden and Costs

This section provides a description of bottom line estimates for implementing the federal
requirements for underground injection of CO2 for the purpose of GS. The bottom line net
change burden hours and costs for owners and operators, permitting authorities, and the Agency
are the summaries of the hours and costs collectively incurred for all activities associated with
the change in moving from the information requirements of the UIC program for Class I nonhazardous wells (baseline) to the selected alternative under the GS Rule over the three years
covered by this ICR. The first part of this section describes the estimated average annual net
change costs and hourly burdens for owners and operators and permitting authorities. The second
part discusses the potential net change cost and burden to EPA. Figure 6.2 presents a summary of
the average annual net change respondent burden over three years for owners and operators,
permitting authorities, and EPA. All additional exhibits relating to this ICR are in Appendix A,
B, and C.

6(e)(i) Variations in the Annual Bottom Line
The burden and costs incurred by respondents to the CO2 GS Rule differ over each of the
3 years covered by this ICR. The differences are due primarily to the fact that states applying for
primacy will do so only during the first year of the ICR period. The EPA burden associated with
reviewing primacy applications will be incurred during the same year. In addition, the
approximately two operators assumed to apply for Class VI permits will apply only during the
second and third years of the ICR period. Permitting authority oversight burden during the ICR
clearance period will vary accordingly, as states and EPA Regions respond to UIC permit
applications and waiver applications by reviewing the applications and writing permits. Owners
and operators are expected to begin collecting monitoring data, conducting MIT, and submitting
semi-annual reports during the third year of the ICR period. Permitting authorities will review

these data. Appendix A, Exhibit A.3.2 presents the burden and costs for years 1-10 following
rule promulgation.

Burden Statement

The annual net change public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of
information is estimated to average 1,510 hours per CO2 GS well owner/operator respondent per
year, 1,054 hours per permitting authority respondent per year, and 5,123 hours for the Agency
per year for the 3-year ICR period.9
Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to
generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This
includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology
and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to
comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able
to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection
of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. An agency may not conduct
or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's
regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15.
To comment on the Agency's need for this information, the accuracy of the provided
burden estimates, and any suggested methods for minimizing respondent burden, including the
use of automated collection techniques, EPA has established a public docket for the GS Rule
under Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OW-2008-0438, which is available for public viewing at the
Water Docket in the EPA Docket Center (EPA/DC), EPA West, Room 3334, 1301 Constitution
Ave., NW, Washington, DC. The EPA Docket Center Public Reading Room is open from 8:30
a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays. The telephone number for
the Reading Room is (202) 566-1744, and the telephone number for the Water Docket is (202)
566-2426. An electronic version of the public docket is available at http://www.regulations.gov.
This site can be used to submit or view public comments, access the index listing of the contents
of the public docket, and to access those documents in the public docket that are available
electronically. Once in the system, select “search,” then key in the docket ID number identified
above. Also, you can send comments to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office

The average burden hours were calculated by dividing the annual burden hours (from Figure 6.1a-d) by
the annual number of respondents (from Figure 6.2), e.g., for owners and operators, 1510 ÷ 1.0 = 1510.

Notes:
1) The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor, capital, and O&M costs for
each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for all activities associated with mechanical integrity
testing.)
2) Certain events require the owner or operator to notify the state within 24 hours. These are associated with triggers indicating potential endangerment to USDWs and for
modeling purposes are included under B-20.

Notes:
1. (H) = ((Engineer labor rate * E) + (Geoscientist labor rate * F))*D
2. The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor,
capital, and O&M costs for each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for
all activities associated with mechanical integrity testing.)

Notes:
1. (H) = ((Engineer labor rate * E) + (Geoscientist labor rate * F))*D
2. The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor,
capital, and O&M costs for each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for
all activities associated with mechanical integrity testing.)

Notes:
1. (H) = ((Engineer labor rate * E) + (Geoscientist labor rate * F))*D
2. The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor,
capital, and O&M costs for each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for
all activities associated with mechanical integrity testing.)

Notes:
1. (H) = ((Engineer labor rate * E) + (Geoscientist labor rate * F))*D
2. The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor,
capital, and O&M costs for each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for
all activities associated with mechanical integrity testing.)

1. (H) = ((Engineer labor rate * E) + (Geoscientist labor rate * F))*D
2. The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor,
capital, and O&M costs for each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for
all activities associated with mechanical integrity testing.)

1. (H) = ((Engineer labor rate * E) + (Geoscientist labor rate * F))*D
2. The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor,
capital, and O&M costs for each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for
all activities associated with mechanical integrity testing.)

Notes:
1. (H) = ((Engineer labor rate * E) + (Geoscientist labor rate * F))*D
2. The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor,
capital, and O&M costs for each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for
all activities associated with mechanical integrity testing.)

Notes:
1. (H) = ((Engineer labor rate * E) + (Geoscientist labor rate * F))*D
2. The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor,
capital, and O&M costs for each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for
all activities associated with mechanical integrity testing.)

1. (H) = ((Engineer labor rate * E) + (Geoscientist labor rate * F))*D
2. The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor,
capital, and O&M costs for each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for
all activities associated with mechanical integrity testing.)

Notes:
1. (H) = ((Engineer labor rate * E) + (Geoscientist labor rate * F))*D
2. The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor,
capital, and O&M costs for each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for
all activities associated with mechanical integrity testing.)

Notes:
1) The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor, capital, and O&M costs for
each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for all activities associated with mechanical integrity
testing.)
2) Certain events require the owner or operator to notify the state within 24 hours. These are associated with triggers indicating potential endangerment to USDWs and for
modeling purposes are included under B-20.

Notes:
1. (H) = ((Engineer labor rate * E) + (Geoscientist labor rate * F))*D
2. The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor,
capital, and O&M costs for each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for
all activities associated with mechanical integrity testing.)

Notes:
1. (H) = ((Engineer labor rate * E) + (Geoscientist labor rate * F))*D
2. The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor,
capital, and O&M costs for each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for
all activities associated with mechanical integrity testing.)
3. There are no responses or respondents for waivered projects under RA 0 because there are no such waiver allowances under existing regulations.

Notes:
1. (H) = ((Engineer labor rate * E) + (Geoscientist labor rate * F))*D
2. The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor,
capital, and O&M costs for each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for
all activities associated with mechanical integrity testing.)
3. There are no responses or respondents for waivered projects under RA 0 because there are no such waiver allowances under existing regulations.

Notes:
1. (H) = ((Engineer labor rate * E) + (Geoscientist labor rate * F))*D
2. The costs for each activity include general and administrative (G&A) costs. These costs are assumed to be equal to 20 percent of the total labor,
capital, and O&M costs for each activity category and are included in the last row for each type of activity. (For example, row F-9 contains G&A costs for
all activities associated with mechanical integrity testing.)
