Assumptions:










a We have assumed that the average number of respondents that will be subject to the rule over the three-year period of this ICR will be 167. It is estimated that no additional respondents will become subject to the regulation in the next three years.


b This ICR uses the following labor rates: Managerial $163.17 ($77.70 + 110%); Technical $130.28 ($62.04 + 110%); and Clerical $65.71 ($31.29 + 110%). These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, September 2022, “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 each respondent will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.


d We have assumed that it will take 330 hours to complete a performance test.


e We have assumed that 20 percent of new respondents will have to conduct a CMS demonstration.


f We have assumed that 20 percent of new respondents will take two hours to conduct a scrubber demonstration.


g We have assumed that 80 percent of new respondents will conduct a reference Method 9 test.


h We have assumed that it will take respondents 18 hours to conduct a reference Method 9 test.


i We have assumed that it will take 4 hours to re-calibrate either the COM or the scrubber.


j We have assumed that 20 percent of new respondents will re-calibrate the scrubber.


k We have assumed that one respondent will notify the Agency regarding a physical or operational change.


l We have assumed that it will take 16 hours for each respondent to complete the semiannual report of exceedances.


m We have assumed that it will take each respondent 1.5 hours to record SSM information.


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

Assumptions:


a We have assumed that the average number of respondents that will be subject to the rule over the three-year period of this ICR will be 167. It is estimated that no additional respondents will become subject to the regulation in the next three years.



b This cost is based on the average hourly labor rate as follows: Managerial $73.46 (GS-13, Step 5, $45.91 + 60%); Technical $54.51 (GS-12, Step 1, $34.07 + 60%); and Clerical $29.50 (GS-6, Step 3, $18.44 + 60%). This ICR assumes that Managerial hours are 5 percent of Technical hours, and Clerical hours are 10 percent of Technical hours. These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2023 General Schedule, which excludes locality, rates of pay. The rates have been increased by 60 percent to account for the benefit packages available to government employees.



c We have assumed that one respondent will submit a notification of physical or operational change.



d We have assumed that it will take four hours to review the CMS demonstration report.










e We have assumed that it will take eight hours to review the performance test results.



f We have assumed that it will take eight hours to review semiannual report of exceedances.










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