a EPA estimates an average of 372 units at 192 existing facilities per year will be subject to the NESHAP over the next 3 years. Of these, 83.3% are owned by private industry. 83.3% of 192 facilities are private facilities = 160. 83.3% of 372 units are at private facilities = 310 units; 62% of 310 previously had PM CPMS or conducted PM stack tests = 192.
