Assumptions:
a We have assumed that the average number of respondents that will be subject to the rule will be eight. There will be no additional new source per year that will become subject to the rule over the three-year period of this ICR.
b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $129.93 per hour for Executive, Administrative, and Managerial labor; $103.97 per hour for Technical labor, and $51.79 per hour for Clerical labor. These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2014, “Table 2: Civilian Workers, by Occupational and Industry group.” The rates are from column 1, “Total Compensation.” The rates have been increased by 110% to account for the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry.
c We have assumed that three respondent will use alternative fuel once per year and will have to submit notification of intent to use alternative fuel.
d We have assumed that one respondent will report deviation once a year.
e We have assumed that seven respondents will report no deviation on a semiannual basis.
f It is assumed that one respondents will have a startup, shutdown, malfunction occur.
g We have assumed that three respondents will report on alternative fuel usage once a year.
h We have assumed that it will take 4 hours for each respondent to read and familiarize with rule requirements.
i We have assumed that information will be recorded once per week for 52 weeks per year.
j We have assumed that it will take 0.25 hours for information to be transmitted or disclosed.
k Totals have been rounded to 3 significant values. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:
a We have assumed that the average number of respondents that will be subject to the rule will be eight. There will be no additional new source per year that will become subject to the rule over the three-year period of this ICR.
b This cost is based on the following labor rates which incorporates a 1.6 benefits multiplication factor to account for government overhead expenses: Managerial rate of $62.90 (GS-13, Step 5, $39.31 x 1.6), Technical rate of $46.67 (GS-12, Step 1, $29.17 x 1.6), and Clerical rate of $25.25 (GS-6, Step 3, $15.78 x 1.6). These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) “2015 General Schedule” which excludes locality rates of pay.
c We have assumed that three respondent will use alternative fuel once per year and will have to submit notification of intent to use alternative fuel.
d We have assumed that one respondent will report deviation once a year.
e We have assumed that seven respondents will report no deviation on a semiannual basis.
f It is assumed that one respondents will have a startup, shutdown, malfunction occur.
g We have assumed that three respondents will report on alternative fuel usage once a year.
h Totals have been rounded to 3 significant values. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.
