Assumptions:







a There are two existing acrylic and modacrylic production facility that are area sources. No new sources are projected during the 3-year term of this ICR.







b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $148.45 per hour for Executive, Administrative, and Managerial labor; $121.46 per hour for Technical labor, and $60.23 per hour for Clerical labor. These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, March 2020, 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 the two existing respondents will review the regulations once per year.







d No hours or costs are associated with this item because the rule imposes no additional burden.







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