Assumptions: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
a We have assumed that the average number of respondents potentially subject to this rule is 8. There will be no additional new sources over the three-year period of this ICR. |
|
|
|
b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $147.40 for Managerial, $117.92 for Technical, and $57.02 for Clerical. 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 percent to account for the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry. |
|
|
|
c We have assumed that it will take each respondent 4 hours to familiarize with the regulatory requirements. |
|
|
|
d We have assumed that it will take 421 hours for each new respondent to complete an initial performance test based on the following: (1.7 sources per plant x 130 hours per source +200 hours for calibration, retesting, sample analysis, etc) for a total of 421 hours. |
|
|
|
e We have assumed that 20% of respondents will have to repeat performance test due to failure. |
|
|
|
f We have assumed that each of the respondents will take 40 hours to prepare the operation, maintenance, and monitoring plan. |
|
|
|
g We have assumed that each of the respondents will take 2 hours to write reports. |
|
|
|
h We have assumed that 20% of respondents will each take 16 hours two times per year to write excess emission reports. |
|
|
|
i We have assumed that 80% of respondents will take 8 hours two times per year to complete the report for no excess emissions. |
|
|
|
j We have assumed that 10% of facilities are required to prepare a quality improvement plan each year. |
|
|
|
k We have assumed that each respondent will take 4 hours 52 times per year to enter information. |
|
|
|
l We have assumed that it will take each respondent 15 minutes (0.25 hours) two times per year to transmit of disclose information. |
|
|
|
m Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding. |
|
|
|
n Performance tests must be completed once every five years. We estimate the annualized compliance testing costs are $59,200 for all 8 facilities ($34,400 for COS test, $10,400 for HCl/HF test, and $14,400 for phenol/methanol test). See EPA-HQ-OAR-2010-1041-0171.pdf |
