(a) There are 177 currently operating facilities, and 4 facilities are expected to commence operations within three years after promulgation of the rule. As such, costs are estimated for 181 facilities. | ||||||||||||||
(b) This is a one-time cost (e.g., to read rule or develop plan). | ||||||||||||||
(c) Assumed facilities will read the rule and perform certain one-time activities (e.g., personnel training) in year 1. Assumed that one-third of the facilities would begin complying in year 2 and the remaining two-thirds of the facilities in year 3. | ||||||||||||||
(d) Assumed 40 facilities would have storage tanks applicable to HAP content monitoring and vapor pressure monitoring requirements. | ||||||||||||||
(e) Flare monitoring includes costs for continuous pressure/temperature monitoring system and engineering calculations in lieu of the more intricate monitoring options (e.g. H2 analyzer, calorimeter, flare gas flow monitor, steam controls/flow monitor, and air controls/flow monitor). | ||||||||||||||
(f) 16 facilities have flares applicable to monitoring requirements. | ||||||||||||||
(g) 180 facilities are subject to connector monitoring requirements. | ||||||||||||||
(h) Assumed 2 tanks (i.e., facilities) would change tanks contents within a year. | ||||||||||||||
(i) Assumed that bypass lines were not used during the 3-year period, so costs for bypass lines would not be incurred. |
