(c) Only applicable to facilities with ethylene oxide emissions. Assumed facilities would begin complying in year 2. Note, there are not new monitoring or recordkeeping costs for ethylene oxide equipment leaks (there are only reporting costs), as these activities are already conducted under the original MON requirements.
(d) Assumed that bypass lines were not used during the 3-year period, so costs for bypass lines would not be incurred.
(e) Assumed recordkeeping hours are comparable to previously required water methods, and assigned 0 additional hours to implement the El Paso Method.
(f) Assumed that one-third of the facilities would begin complying in year 2 and the remaining two-thirds of the facilities in year 3.

Footnotes:
(a) This is a one-time cost (e.g., to read rule or develop plan).
(b) Includes costs for the following monitoring equipment: H2 analyzer, calorimeter, flare gas flow monitor, steam controls/flow monitor, and air controls/flow monitor.
(c) Only applicable to facilities with ethylene oxide emissions. Assumed facilities would begin complying in year 2. Note, there are not new monitoring or recordkeeping costs for ethylene oxide equipment leaks (there are only reporting costs), as these activities are already conducted under the original MON requirements.
(d) Assumed that bypass lines were not used during the 3-year period, so costs for bypass lines would not be incurred.
(e) Assumed recordkeeping hours are comparable to previously required water methods, and assigned 0 additional hours to implement the El Paso Method.
(f) Assumed that one-third of the facilities would begin complying in year 2 and the remaining two-thirds of the facilities in year 3.
