| Assumptions: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| a We have assumed that the average number of respondents that will be subject to this rule will be 270. There will be no additional new sources that will become subject to the rule over the three-year period of the ICR. It is estimated that 135 sources that have a total annual benzene (TAB) quantity waste between 1 Mg/yr and 10 Mg/yr must file an annual report. It is also estimated that 135 sources that have a TAB greater than 10 Mg/yr required to comply with the control requirements must file quarterly reports. |
|
|
|
|
| b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $149.35 per hour for Executive, Administrative, and Managerial labor; $112.98 per hour for Technical labor, and $54.81 per hour for Clerical labor. These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2014, “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 have assumed that it will take each respondent two hours once per year to create the annual waste determination. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| d We have assumed that all facilities above 1 Mg/yr must evaluate waste streams annually for TAB. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| e We have assumed that it will take one hour each month for each respondents to create the monthly treated waste analysis information (0.5 hours for collection activities for all samples and 0.5 hours per sample for analysis for a total of 1 hour per sample). |
|
|
|
|
| f We have assumed that 90 percent of 135 sources (121) will monitor process parameters, and the remaining 10 percent (14) must conduct monthly sampling. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| g We have assumed that 135 facilities that are expected to be greater than 10 Mg per year must comply with the quarterly visual inspection requirements. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| h We have assumed that 135 respondents will each take six hours once per year to comply with the annual method 21 monitoring requirements. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| i We have assumed that 10 percent of facilities (14) will choose to ship their waste offsite once a month for treatment. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| j We have assumed that 135 respondents will take 78 hours once per year to comply with the record requirements. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| k We have assumed that 121 respondents will take 30 minutes twelve times per year to repeat the benzene quantity determination. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| l We have assumed that this is a one-time only activity. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| m Totals have been rounded to 3 significant values. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding. |

It is also estimated that 135 sources that have a TAB greater than 10 Mg/yr and have complied with the control requirements must file quarterly reports. |
|
|
|
| b This cost is based on the following labor rates which incorporates a 1.6 benefits multiplication factor to account for government overhead expenses: $62.80 for Managerial (GS-13, Step 5, $40.50 x 1.6), $48.08 for Technical (GS-12, Step 1, $30.05 x 1.6), and $26.02 Clerical (GS-6, Step 3, $16.26 x 1.6). These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) “2015 General Schedule” which excludes locality rates of pay. |
|
|
|
| c We have assumed that this is a one-time activity for each new facility. |
|
|
|

| d We have assumed that the Agency will review quarterly reports for 135 respondents. |
