Assumptions:










a We have assumed that the average number of respondents that will be subject to the rule will be 535 existing sources. There will be no additional sources over the three-year period of this ICR.


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 have assumed that all respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.


d We have assumed that there will be no new sources expected over the three-year period of this ICR.


e We have assumed that 20 percent of respondents will have to repeat initial performance test due to failure.


f We have assumed that each respondent will take 10 hours two times per year to write the excess emissions and exemption reports.


g We have assumed that it will take each respondent 15 minutes 365 days per year to check computer system and calibrate continuous monitor.


h 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 will be 535 existing sources. There will be no additional sources over the three-year period of this ICR.


b This cost is based on the average hourly labor rate as follows: Managerial $70.56 (GS-13, Step 5, $44.10 + 60%); Technical $52.37 (GS-12, Step 1, $32.73 + 60%); and Clerical $28.34 (GS-6, Step 3, $17.71 + 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), 2022 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 there will be no new sources expected over the three-year period of this ICR


d We have assumed that it will take 4 hours two times per year to review the excess emissions and exemption reports.


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