Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: There is a decrease in the respondent labor hours, labor costs, and the number of responses. The decrease reflects an update in the estimated respondent universe. The previously approved ICR (1717.09) estimated 236 sources. In developing the 2015 amendment, we estimate that only 45 sources are subject to these standards. However, there is an increase in the total O&M cost compared to the previously-approved ICR. This cost increased because the current ICR incorporates additional requirements associated with the 2015 amendment, including additional O&M cost associated with LDAR and PRD monitoring equipment.
