Assumptions: | |||||||||||||||
a This table shows only the additional burden to sources affected by the proposed amendments. All other new and recurring costs for these types of boilers are shown in the previous ICR Renewal (EPA ICR Number 2028.09, OMB Control Number 2060-0551). Since the EPA is proposing a 3-year compliance timeframe no burden is estimated in year 1 or 2. | |||||||||||||||
b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $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 respondents impacted by the proposal will familiarize themselves with the rule in year one and implement the rule in year three. Based on compliance data, we estimate that 25 facilities with existing solid fuel units will be impacted by the proposal. | |||||||||||||||
d Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding. |

Assumptions: | |||||||||||||||
a This cost is based on the following labor rates: $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. | |||||||||||||||
b This line item is not changed by proposed amendments and is accounted for in the previous ICR Renewal (EPA ICR Number 2028.09, OMB Control Number 2060-0551). | |||||||||||||||
c Based on compliance data, we estimate that 25 facilities with existing solid fuel units will be impacted by the proposal and may be required to modify monitoring plans. This burden was assigned to year 3 of the compliance period given that sources have 3 years to demonstrate compliance. | |||||||||||||||
d Based on compliance data, we estimate that 26 additional monitors to be installed, operated, calibrated, and maintained at existing large solid fuel units as a result of additional controls installed to meet the revised emission limits. This includes 6 opacity monitors, 1 monitor for the dry injection rate and bag leak detection (DIFF), 8 bag leak detection monitors, 3 wet scrubber monitors, 8 CO CEMS monitors. The initial costs (capital costs of equipment) and annual costs (annualized capital cost + annual O&M costs) for each monitor are consistent with the costs updated in the impacts analysis for the proposed amendments. | |||||||||||||||
e As as a results of some of the CO emission limit changes, EPA anticipates 8 sources will opt to comply with the CO CEMS-based emission limit instead of the stack test limit and as a result these units will need to intall and operate CO CEMS. The ICR renewals have assumed that units would comply with stack test CO limits to date since they have the option of either. This was not previously costed out. | |||||||||||||||
f We estimate that 36 existing large solid fuel units will have to change the records associated with operating parameter values. This includes the 26 units that install new monitors as well as 10 additional units that may need to make minor changes to the record system to reflect the new emission limits. | |||||||||||||||
g Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding. |

b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $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.

Since the EPA is proposing a 3-year compliance timeframe no burden is estimated in year 1 or 2. | |||||||||||||||
b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $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. |

d Based on compliance data, we estimate that 2 additional wet scrubber monitors to be installed, operated, calibrated, and maintained at new large solid fuel units as a result of additional controls installed to meet the revised emission limits. The initial costs (capital costs of equipment) and annual costs (annualized capital cost + annual O&M costs) for each monitor are consistent with the costs updated in the impacts analysis for the proposed amendments. | |||||||||||||||

a EPA estimates that, as a result of the proposed amendments, 26 continuous parameter monitoring systems (CPMS) on existing pollution control devices will be required to be installed. EPA also estimates that, as a result of the proposed amendments, 2 new sources will be required to install CPMS on scrubbers. Additionally, EPA estimates that 25 existing sources and 3 new sources will update site-specific monitoring plans as a result of the proposed changes to the emission limits. | |||||||
b Facilities have three years to come into compliance after the proposed amendments are promulgated. EPA assumes that all facilities will comply in year three. Therefore, all additional responses as a result of these amendments are assumed to occur in year three. |

# of units with additional monitoring, includes the list from complaince data plus model boilers to account for units where we do not have data for existing sources. For new sources includes an extra unit with scrubber, recognizing potential growth in new units. The 3rd new unit is estimated to only require an increase in sorbent injection rate to meet the HCl limit. | ||
