2 Reflects updated costs for PRD monitoring for stationary sources from the January 29, 2018 final rule (83 FR 3986). The annualized costs per facility (assuming a 15-year equipment life and a seven percent interest rate) are estimated to be approximately $4,000. See memorandum from Carey, A., EPA, “Pressure Relief Device Control Options and Impacts for Off-Site Waste and Recovery Operations (OSWRO) June 26, 2017”, Docket Id. No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2012-0360-0133. |

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
a We have assumed that there are approximately 50 respondents, with no additional new or reconstructed sources becoming subject to the rule over the next three years. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
b This ICR uses the following labor rates: Managerial $141.06; Technical $120.27; and Clerical $58.67. 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 This activity is a one-time activity following promulgation of the March 15, 2018 final rule. |

e It is assumed that there will be no new sources. |
|

|
f The burden of one annual summary report was included in the burden estimate for the semiannual report. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
g It is assumed that 50 percent of the facilities, the owner or operator manages, for a fee, off-site materials received from other generators. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
h It is assumed that 50 percent of the owners or operators accept the off-site material at another location and ship it to the facility for storage, treatment, or disposal. |
