Seasonally Adjusted: Employment Cost Index for wages and salaries, by ownership, occupational group, and industry" at http://www.bls.gov/news.release/eci.t02.htm. All labor rates incorporate a factor of 110% to account for overhead and fringe benefit costs. |

| 2 All Partners must submit MOU when they join LMOP. In 2016, it is expected that 25 new Partners will join LMOP. |
| 3 In 2016, EPA will compile landfill and/or project data into a single spreadsheet for each existing Community, Energy, and Industry-Project Developer Partner to review and revise if necessary, and also provide information on new projects. LMOP will email these spreadsheets to all existing Community, Energy, and Industry-Project Developer Partners. EPA will prepare and send spreadsheets for new Community, Energy, and Industry-Project Developer Partners via a welcome email when they join the program. In 2016, it is estimated that EPA will need to prepare and review annual spreadsheets from 7 new and 320 existing Community, Energy, and Industry-Project Developer Partners. |
| 4 In 2016, it is assumed that one-quarter of all existing and new Partners will submit voluntary periodic information updates. It is assumed that half of those that update their information will provide information through the LMOP website or email and the other half will provide information through a telephone interview. In 2016, it is anticipated that there will be 1,120 existing and 25 new Partners. It is assumed 286 will provide an information update: 143 through the website or email, and 143 by telephone interview. |

| 2 All Partners must submit MOU when they join LMOP. In 2017, it is expected that 25 new Partners will join LMOP. |
| 3 In 2017, EPA will compile landfill and/or project data into a single spreadsheet for each existing Community, Energy, and Industry-Project Developer Partner to review and revise if necessary, and also provide information on new projects. LMOP will email these spreadsheets to all existing Community, Energy, and Industry-Project Developer Partners. EPA will prepare and send spreadsheets for new Community, Energy, and Industry-Project Developer Partners via a welcome email when they join the program. In 2017, it is estimated that EPA will need to prepare and review annual spreadsheets from 7 new and 324 existing Community, Energy, and Industry-Project Developer Partners. |
| 4 In 2017, it is assumed that one-quarter of all existing and new Partners will submit voluntary periodic information updates. It is assumed that half of those that update their information will provide information through the LMOP website or email and the other half will provide information through a telephone interview. In 2017, it is anticipated that there will be 1,135 existing and 25 new Partners. It is assumed 290 will provide an information update: 145 through the website or email, and 145 by telephone interview. |
