(a) There are 26 currently operating facilities, and 5 facilities under construction. We assumed each of the 5 new facilities would commence operations within three years after promulgation of the rule. As such, costs are estimated for 31 facilities.
(b) This is a one-time cost (e.g., to read rule or develop plan).












(c) Assumed facilities will read the rule and perform certain one-time activities (e.g., develop flare management plan) in year 1. Assumed that one-third of the facilities would begin complying in year 2 and the remaining two-thirds of the facilities in year 3.
(d) Includes costs for the following monitoring equipment: H2 analyzer, calorimeter, flare gas flow monitor, steam controls/flow monitor, and air controls/flow monitor.
(e) 21 of the 31 facilities have atmospheric PRDs.
(f) Assumed that bypass lines were not used during the 3-year period, so no bypass line periodic reports would be submitted.
(g) Assumed recordkeeping hours are comparable to previously required water methods, and assigned 0 additional hours to implement the El Paso Method.
