Assumptions: | |||||||||||||
a We estimate that an average of 36 existing respondents per year will be subject to the rule, and that no new, modified, or reconstructed facilities will become subject over the three-year period of this ICR. We estimate 20 (55.5 percent) respondents are privately owned and 16 (44.4 percent) are publicly owned. | |||||||||||||
b This ICR uses the following labor rates: Managerial $157.61 ($75.05 + 110%); Technical $123.94 ($59.02 + 110%); and Clerical $62.52 ($29.77 + 110%). These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, September 2021, “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 varying industry wage rates and the additional overhead business costs of employing workers beyond their wages and benefits, including business expenses associated with hiring, training, and equipping their employees. | |||||||||||||
c We assume that all sources will have to familiarize themselves with regulatory requirements each year. | |||||||||||||
d We assume this is a one-time-only cost. | |||||||||||||
e We assume it takes 60 technical hours for pretests/test preparation, 60 technical hours for testing, and 80 technical hours for analysis and report preparation. | |||||||||||||
f This rule does not require semiannual reporting, just recordkeeping. | |||||||||||||
g We assume it will take 0.25 hours per day over 350 days per year to record daily charging rates. | |||||||||||||
h Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding. |
