Assumptions |

|
|
|
|
|
|
a This ICR uses the following labor rates: $51.23 for technical, $69.04 for managerial, and $27.73 for clerical labor. These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) 2021 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. |
b No burden will be incurred over the three-year ICR period, as this was a one-time requirement during a previous ICR period. |
c All new sources must submit initial notifications and notifications of compliance status, regardless of subcategory. |
d It is assumed that EPA will observe 20% of initial performance tests. |
e It is assumed that 10% of initial performance tests will be repeated, which will be observed by EPA. |
f The number of occurrences is based on the number of new facilities that will test and set/submit operating limits. All new sources must submit operating limits, regardless of subcategory. |
g The number of occurrences is based on the number of facilities maintaining records of control device parameters. |
h It is assumed that 10% of new facilities will have exceedances, requiring EPA enforcement. |
i All existing sources at the time of promulgation of the standard were required to complete the energy audit by the conclusion of the previous ICR period; therefore, no new or existing sources will incur this burden over the next three years. |
j The total cost is based on the number of performance tests observed by EPA multiplied by the cost of each trip. Based on EPA experience with other rulemakings, each trip is estimated to be 3 days x ($220 hotel + $96 meals/incidentals) + ($600 round trip) = $1,104 per trip. |
k Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding. |

a The counts for existing facilities (respondents) and existing boilers and the values for growth per year are taken directly from the "Base Data' tab of "AreaBoiler_2253.02.xlsx". b The values for 'Existing in 2013' are the values from 2012, incremented by 1 year's growth. c U.S. Energy Information Administration data (AEO 2006, AEO 2021, available at https://www.eia.gov/outlooks/aeo/) indicates the consumption of distilate fuel oil in the commercial sector has decreased by 33 percent in the past 9 years and is anticipated to decrease by 1% per year for the next three years. In this ICR renewal, we assume this decrease in consumption corresponds to an equivalent decrease in the number of small and large boilers firing liquid fuels. We adjust the number of small liquid-fired and large liquid-fired boilers and respondents existing in 2013 by 33% to determine the number of small liquid-fired and large liquid-fired boilers existing in the first year of this ICR renewal (2022).

a The growth in number of facilites in the period June 2010 through June 2013 is used to calculate the number of new large liquid-fired boilers constructed since promulgation of the rule and thus subject to standards under this rule. Due to the decrease in fuel oil consumption indicated by the EIA data, we assume that no new oil-fired units were constructed after June 2013. |

Notes |
|
|
|
a On average, over the 3-year period of this ICR, we estimate 11,711 existing small solid boilers (i.e., units <10 MMBtu/hr) at 5,855 facilities will be subject to the rule. We also estimate 98 new boilers at 49 facilities per year, for a total of 11,809 boilers at 5,905 facilities. |

11612 |

b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $122.20 for technical, $153.55 for managerial, and $61.51 for clerical labor. These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, March 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 the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry. |
|
|
|
|
c This burden applies to new sources only. The burden on existing sources to read and understand rule requirements and submit initial notifications was incurred during a previous ICR period. It is assumed that existing sources will take 1 hour to refamiliarize themselves with the rule requirements each year. |
|
|
|
|
d It is assumed that facilities must already maintain records on boiler insurance and/or maintenance scheduling; therefore, no new record system would be required. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
e Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding. |

Notes (Units vs. Respondents): |
|
|
|
a On average, over the 3-year period of this ICR, we estimate 4,260 existing large solid boilers (i.e., biomass- and coal-fired boilers >10 MMBtu/hr) at 2,130 facilities will be subject to the rule. We also estimate 20 new boilers at 10 facilities per year, all of which are biomass-fired, for a total of 4,280 boilers at 2,140 facilities. |

2109.5 |
4239 |

b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $122.20 for technical, $153.55 for managerial, and $61.51 for clerical labor. These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, March 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 the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry. |
|
|
|
|
c This burden applies to new sources only. The burden on existing sources to read and understand rule requirements and submit initial notifications was incurred during a previous ICR period. It is assumed that existing sources will take 1 hour to refamiliarize themselves with the rule requirements each year. |
|
|
|
|
d This burden applies to existing large solid fuel boilers only. All existing sources were required to complete the energy audit by the conclusion of a previous ICR period; therefore, no new or existing sources will incur this burden over the next three years. |
|
|
|
|
e Cost per occurrence for certified energy audit professionals includes a phone screening to discuss the facility prior to a visit, a 2- to 4-hour site visit, and an additional 2 to 4 hours to prepare a follow-up report on recommendations and findings. Cost depends on whether the source is industrial or commercial. It is assumed that 10% of sources will be industrial and 90% will be commercial. |
|
|
|
|
f Only existing and new large coal boilers are subject to numerical mercury (Hg) and carbon monoxide (CO) limits, while new large coal and biomass boilers are subject to particulate matter (PM) limits. Large biomass boilers constructed since June 2010 and not subject to NSPS limits for PM under 40 CFR Part 60 Subparts Db or Dc are subject to PM limits under this rule. |
|
|
|
|
g All projected large solid fuel boilers are expected to comply through stack testing instead of the fuel testing compliance option. |
|
|
|
|
h Only boilers <30 MMBtu/hr that are not subject to limits under the NSPS (40 CFR Part 60 Subparts Db, Dc) will incur additional testing, monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting costs under this rule. It is estimated that 11 boilers (5.5 facilities, assuming 2 boilers per facility) will be subject to additional testing. |
|
|
|
|
i Sources demonstrating compliance with any applicable emission limits through stack testing must develop a site-specific monitoring plan. All new large solid fuel units are expected to develop this plan. |
|
|
|
|
j All new biomass boilers >10 MMBtu/hr are expected to meet PM limits with an electrostatic precipitator (ESP); therefore, those sources will install opacity monitors. |
|
|
|
|
k All new coal boilers >10 MMBtu/hr are expected to install fabric filters equipped with bag leak detection (BLD) systems instead of opacity monitors. No new large coal boilers are projected over the three-year ICR period. |
|
|
|
|
l New and existing large biomass boilers are subject to biennial tune-ups. These boilers also submit a biennial compliance report. |
|
|
|
|
m It is assumed that facilities must already maintain records on boiler insurance and/or maintenance scheduling; therefore, no new record system would be required. |

a On average, over the 3-year period of this ICR, we estimate 105,532 existing small liquid boilers (i.e., units <10 MMBtu/hr) at 52,776 facilities will be subject to the rule. We also estimate a decrease of 538 small liquid boilers per year, for a total of 104,456 boilers at 52,228 facilities. |

Notes |
|
|
|
a On average, over the 3-year period of this ICR, we estimate 6,167 existing large liquid boilers (i.e., units >10 MMBtu/hr) at 3,084 facilities will be subject to the rule. We also estimate a decrease of 31 large liquid boilers per year, for a total of 6,104 boilers at 3,052 facilities. |

b This ICR uses the following labor rates: $122.20 for technical, $153.55 for managerial, and $61.51 for clerical labor. These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, March 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 the benefit packages available to those employed by private industry. |
|
|
|
|
c This burden applies to new sources only. The burden on existing sources to read and understand rule requirements and submit initial notifications was incurred during a previous ICR period. It is assumed that existing sources will take 1 hour to refamiliarize themselves with the rule requirements each year. |
|
|
|
|
d This burden applies to existing large liquid fuel boilers only. All existing sources were required to complete the energy audit by the conclusion of the previous ICR period; therefore, no new or existing sources will incur this burden over the next three years. Cost per occurrence for certified energy audit professionals includes a phone screening to discuss the facility prior to a visit, a 2- to 4-hour site visit, and an additional 2 to 4 hours to prepare a follow-up report on recommendations and findings. Cost depends on whether the source is industrial or commercial. It is assumed that 10% of sources will be industrial and 90% will be commercial. |
|
|
|
|
e All new large liquid fuel boilers are expected to comply through stack testing instead of the fuel testing compliance option. Only units <30 MMBtu/hr that are not subject to PM limits under the NSPS (40 CFR Part 60 Subparts Db, Dc) will incur additional testing, monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting costs under this rule. This is a conservatively high estimate for burden as we expect some of the units will comply with the PM standard by combusting ultra-low sulfur diesel (ULSD), but the number of units with ULSD is unknown. |
|
|
|
|
f We assume one-third of respondents perform stack testing each year over the three-year period of this ICR. Liquid fuel boilers constructed since June 2010 that are > 10 MMBtu and <30 MMBtu/hr are not subject to PM limits under the NSPS (40 CFR Part 60 Subparts Db, Dc). These units will incur additional testing, monitoring, recordkeeping and reporting costs under this rule. The number of respondents required to perform stack testing is the number of respondents that constructed a boiler subject to the PM standard since promulgation of the rule in June 2010. EIA AEO data indicates that growth in this sector ceased in 2013 and began to decrease. This number represents the respondents constructing new boiler units in the three year period June 2010 through June 2013. We assume no new large liquid boilers have been constructed since that time. |
|
|
|
|
g Sources demonstrating compliance with any applicable emission limits through stack testing must develop a site-specific monitoring plan. All new large liquid fuel units are expected to develop this plan. |
|
|
|
|
h The number of respondents with an annual opacity test represents the number of respondents constructed since promulgation of the rule and are not already subject to NSPS Subpart Db or Dc.. EIA AEO data indicates that growth in this sector ceased in 2013 and began to decrease. This number represents the respondents constructing new boiler units in the three year period June 2010 through June 2013. We assume no new large liquid boilers have been constructed since that time. |
|
|
|
|
i It is assumed that facilities must already maintain records on boiler insurance and/or maintenance scheduling; therefore, no new record system would be required. |
