Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The Agency is requesting a burden hour adjustment decrease of 216,744 (from 1,460,430 hours to 1,243,686 hours). The decrease in burden hours is due to an estimated overall decrease in the number of firms, based on updated data and estimates. There is an estimated increase in operation and maintenance costs of $6,849,923, from $60,093,015 to $66,942,938. The increase in operation and maintenance cost is mainly due to increased cost of lab analysis of samples and the increase in cost of the monitoring equipment.
