Assumptions: | ||||||||
a We have assumed that there are approximately 583 respondents, with no additional new or reconstructed sources becoming subject to the rule over the next three years. | ||||||||
b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $111.03 per hour for Executive, Administrative, and Managerial labor; $90.34 per hour for Technical labor, and $37.72 per hour for Clerical | ||||||||
labor. These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, "May 2016 National Industry-Specific Occupational Employment and Wage | ||||||||
Estimates NAICS 337000 - Furniture and Related Product Manufacturing." 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 each respondent will take six hours twice per year to complete the semiannual report. | ||||||||
d We have assumed that each respondent will take four hours twice per year to complete the excess emissions reports and also four hours twice per year for the SSM reports. | ||||||||
e We have assumed that each respondent will take 0.5 hours 260 times per year to enter information. | ||||||||
f We have assumed that each respondent will have to complete task once per month. | ||||||||
g Totals have been rounded to 3 significant values. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding. | ||||||||

Total Burden (Hrs) and Costs | 21,500 | $1,006,000 | ||||||
Assumptions: | ||||||||
a This cost is based on the following labor rates which incorporates a 1.6 benefits multiplication factor to account for government overhead expenses: $64.80 | ||||||||
(GS-13, Step 5, $40.50 + 60%) for Managerial, $48.08 (GS-12, Step 1, $30.05 + 60%) for Technical, and $26.02 (GS-6, Step 3, $16.26 + 60%) for Clerical. These | ||||||||
rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) “2015 General Schedule” which excludes locality rates of pay. | ||||||||
b The semiannual report would have to be completed twice per year. | ||||||||
g Totals have been rounded to 3 significant values. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding. |

Assumptions: | ||||||||||
a It is assumed that there are 16 sources that are subject to the standard, and no additional new sources will become subject to the rule over the next three years. | ||||||||||
b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $111.03 per hour for Executive, Administrative, and Managerial labor; $90.34 per hour for Technical labor, and $37.72 per hour for Clerical labor. These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, "May 2016 National Industry-Specific Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates NAICS 337000 - Furniture and Related Product Manufacturing." 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 It is assumed that each respondent will take 4 hours to read the rule and instructions. | ||||||||||
d The proposed RTR amendments do not impact this item. The current ICR assumes each respondent will take ten hours, once per year to plan activities and train staff. | ||||||||||
e If a source owner or operator chooses to comply with the standards using add-on controls, the results of an initial performance test are used to determine compliance; however, the rule does not require on-going periodic performance testing for these emission capture systems and add-on controls. The EPA specifically is requesting comment on whether performance testing should be required anytime a source plans to undertake an operational change that may adversely affect compliance with an applicable standard, operating limit, or parametric monitoring value. | ||||||||||
f It is assumed that 20 percent of respondents will have to repeat performance tests. | ||||||||||
g The current ICR assumes each respondent will take twelve hours, twelve times per year to complete task. Labor totals include hours for the facility to coordinate with suppliers, and gather information on monitoring and emissions. The proposed RTR amendments do not impact this item. | ||||||||||
h The proposed RTR amendments do not impact this item. The current ICR assumes each respondent will take four hours, four times per year to complete task. | ||||||||||
i The proposed RTR amendments do not impact this item. The current ICR assumes that each respondent will take ten hours for notifications, ten hours for performance test, and ten hours for reports. | ||||||||||
j The current ICR assumes each respondent will take one hour two times per week to record and disclose information. EPA is proposing to require sources to electronically submit semiannual reports starting 2 years after the effective date of the final rule. It is assumed that this will not increase labor. | ||||||||||
k We are proposing the elimination of the startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM) exemption in this rule. Costs associated with elimination of the SSM exemption include time for re-evaluating previously developed SSM record systems in year one. Costs are also associated with the use of electronic reporting and include time to become familiar with CEDRI and the semi-annual reporting form. Two responses with 8 hours per response. | ||||||||||
l The proposed RTR amendments do not impact this item. The current ICR assumes that each respondent will take half an hour annually to store and file reports. | ||||||||||
m EPA is proposing to require the use of high efficiency spray guns where the source is not using add-on controls. Because of the economic incentives to use high efficiency application methods for spray applied coatings, we do not expect any facilities will have to switch to high efficiency application methods. |

Assumptions: | ||||||||||
a It is assumed that there are 16 sources that are subject to the standard, and no additional new sources will become subject to the rule over the next three years. | ||||||||||
b This cost is based on the following labor rates: Managerial rate of $64.80 (GS-13, Step 5, $40.50 + 60%), Technical rate of $48.08 (GS-12, Step 1, $30.05 + 60%), and Clerical rate of $26.02 (GS-6, Step3, $16.26 + 60%). These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2017 General Schedule, which excludes locality rates of pay. The rates have been increased by 60 percent to account for the benefit packages available to government employees. | ||||||||||
c The proposed RTR amendments do not impact this item. The current ICR assumes it will take 24 hours to complete the task for each respondent. | ||||||||||
d If a source owner or operator chooses to comply with the standards using add-on controls, the results of an initial performance test are used to determine compliance; however, the rule does not require on-going periodic performance testing for these emission capture systems and add-on controls. The EPA specifically is requesting comment on whether performance testing should be required anytime a source plans to undertake an operational change that may adversely affect compliance with an applicable standard, operating limit, or parametric monitoring value. | ||||||||||
e It is assumed that it will take four hours to review the notification of the test and the test plan for each respondent. | ||||||||||
f It is assumed that it will take eight hours to review the test report for each respondent. | ||||||||||
g The proposed RTR amendments do not impact this item. The current ICR assumes that it will take eight hours, once a year to review the complaince stats for each respondent. | ||||||||||
h The proposed RTR amendments do not impact this item. The current ICR assumes that it will take twelve hours to review the test reports, twice a year for each respondent. | ||||||||||
i EPA is proposing the elimination of the startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM) exemption in this rule. Costs associated with elimination of the SSM exemption include time for evaluating new SSM record systems in year one. |
