Assumptions: | ||||||||||||
a We have assumed that there are approximately 72 existing sources currently subject to this rule, with no additional new sources becoming subject to the rule over the three-year period of this ICR. | ||||||||||||
b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $147.40 per hour for Executive, Administrative, and Managerial labor; $117.92 per hour for Technical labor, and $57.02 per hour for Clerical labor. These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2018, “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 each respondent will take 5 hours twice per year to complete the semiannual report. | ||||||||||||
d We have assumed that 15 respondents will take 4 hours twice per year to write the excess emission report and temperature variance report. We have assumed that 20 percent of respondents (0.20*72=14.4 facilities) will exceed the emission standard in 40 CFR 60.452 at least once in each of two quarterly reporting periods, so will be required to write the quarterly excess emission report in 40 CFR 60.455(b) twice per year. We have assumed that 5% of respondents (i.e., 0.05*72=4 facilities) use incineration, and that 20% of these 4 respondents with incineration (0.20*4=0.8) will exceed their temperature limit during both 6-month periods of each year, so will be required to prepare semiannual monitoring exceedance reports twice per year under 40 CFR 60.455(c). (14.4 respondents + 0.8 respondents =15 respondents) | ||||||||||||
e We have assumed that each respondent will take one hour once per month to record the monthly performance test. | ||||||||||||
f We have assumed that each respondent will take 0.25 hours 250 times per year to record operating parameter. | ||||||||||||
g Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding. |
