<-- need to discuss increase in 6(f). Prior ICR left out review of semiannual reports for existing sources. | ||||||||||||||
Assumptions: | ||||||||||||||
a We have assumed that the average number of respondents that will be subject to the rule will be 19. There will be two additional new sources per year that | ||||||||||||||
will become subject to the rule over the three-year period of this ICR. | ||||||||||||||
b This cost is based on the following labor rates which incorporates a 1.6 benefits multiplication factor to account for government overhead expenses: | ||||||||||||||
Managerial rate of $65.71 (GS-13, Step 5, $41.07 x 1.6), Technical rate of $48.75 (GS-12, Step 1, $30.47 x 1.6), and Clerical rate of $26.38 (GS-6, Step 3, | ||||||||||||||
$16.49 x 1.6). These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) “2018 General Schedule” which excludes locality rates of pay. | ||||||||||||||
c This is a one-time only activity for each facility and only sources that started up prior to April 17, 2003 are required to submit initial notification. | ||||||||||||||
d We have assumed that each respondent will take 4 hours to review notification of intent to conduct test. | ||||||||||||||
e We have assumed that each respondent will take 20 hours to review the first compliance report (applies only to new respondents) once per year and 20 hours to review the semiannual compliance report twice per year. | <-- Updated this footnote since there are 0 new respondents. | |||||||||||||
f We have assumed that no facilities will perform tests after the initial compliance determination. | <-- Updated this footnote since there are 0 new respondents. | |||||||||||||
g We have assumed that it will take each new respondents eight hours to review the SSM report. | ||||||||||||||
h Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding. |
