Assumptions:










a We estimate that an average of 74 existing respondents and zero new respondents per year will be subject to the rule over the three-year period of this ICR.


b This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical, and $58.67 for clerical labor. These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, “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 assume that all respondents will have to familiarize themselves with the regulatory requirements each year.


d Cost is incurred by a facility regardless of the number of affected units at the plant.


e This activity is based on a one-time cost only.


f Based on the “Revised Testing and Monitoring Options and Costs for Medical Waste Incinerators (MWIs) - Methodology and Assumptions (A-91-61,IV-B-66)," we assume 9 hours (($300 for planning + $500 for selection)/$89.94 per hour = 9 hours).


g Based on the "Revised Testing and Monitoring Options and Costs for Medical Waste Incinerators (MWIs) - Methodology and Assumptions (A-91-61, IV-B-66)," respondents spend 83 hours for reporting.


h Respondents make one combined annual report per year.


i We assume that 10 percent of the facilities will have an exceedance during the year. The remaining 90% of facilities would submit a statement of no exceedance.


j Assume that 10 percent of facilities will not have a qualified operator available for more than two weeks at least once a year, and that two corrective action summaries will be required.


k Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $66.62 for managerial, $49.44 for technical, and $26.75 for clerical labor. These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2019 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 We assume that 10 percent of the facilities will have exceedance reports and operator off-site reports.


d Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

a Annual reports are not required until the second year that units are in operation; therefore, annual reports will only apply to existing sources (i.e., 74 respondents).

Continuous Monitoring Device Capital/Startup Cost for One Respondent Number of New Respondents Total Capital/Startup Cost, (B X C) Annual O&M Costs for One Respondent Number of Respondents with O&M Total O&M,
(E X F)


Wet scrubber a $2,240 0 $0 $0 0 $0

Annual stack testing b $0 0 $0 $15,034 74 $1,112,516

Continuous parameter monitoring (including bypass stack) c $0 0 $0 $211 74 $15,614



Total $0
Total d $1,130,000

a Total capital cost of parameter monitoring for wet scrubbers minus planning and equipment selecting cost equals: $18,786 - $800 = $17,986. Based on 0.11746 capital recovery factor, 10 percent interest rate, and 20 year lifetime of the units = $2,113; $2,113 x 1.06 cost adjustment = $2,240.

b Assume 125 contractor hours per respondent and an average contractor labor rate of $120.27 per hour. The labor rate is based on the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, “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 Based on the memorandum titled " Revised Testing and Monitoring Options and Costs for Medical Waste Incinerators (MWIs) - Methodology and Assumptions (A-91-61,IV-B-66)," O&M cost = $1,693 x 0.11746 = $199; $199 x 1.06 cost adjustment = $211.

d Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.
