Assumptions: | |||||||||||
a We have assumed that there are approximately 48 respondents, with no additional new or reconstructed sources becoming subject to the rule over the next three years. This ICR assumes each respondent will incur a burden to re-familiarize themselves with the regulatory requirements each year. | |||||||||||
b This ICR uses the following labor rates: Managerial $163.17 ($77.70 + 110%); Technical $130.28 ($62.04 + 110%); and Clerical $65.71 ($31.29 + 110%). These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, January 2023, “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 is a one-time startup cost associated with initial compliance determination and acquisition, installation, and utilization of technology and systems needed to support recordkeeping and reporting. The one-time startup costs were annualized over the 15-year life of control equipment at 7 percent interest. The number of occurrences per respondent per year is annualized over the 15 year life of the control equipment. Because there are no new sources, no performance tests are expected to occur. It is assumed that the facility would contract out the performance testing costs, but some labor hours from facility staff would be involved with coordinating and observing the test and reviewing the results. | |||||||||||
d We have assumed that emission capture systems meet the design criteria for a permanent total enclosure in EPA Method 204, so that capture efficiency does not need to be measured. | |||||||||||
e Facilities that comply using emission capture systems and add-on controls conduct air emissions performance testing, within 3 years of the effective date of the revised standards. Labor totals include hours for the facility to obtain the testing contractor, plan and attend the test, review the test report, and load it to ERT. A permit review revealed that, of the 48 sources subject to Subpart SSSS, 30 add on control devices at 21 sources do not already have a permit testing requirement. 21 sources undergo testing of their control devices once every five years (21 sources/5 years = 4.2 sources per year). | |||||||||||
f It is assumed that 5 percent of respondents will have to repeat performance tests. (4.2 x 0.05 = 0.21 per year) | |||||||||||
g Based on comments we received from industry consultation, 60 hrs per respondent is required to gather and evaluate information in preparation of semiannual reports. | |||||||||||
h We have assumed that exceedances are reported semiannually. We have assumed that 10 percent of respondents will report exceedances (48 x 0.1 = 4.8, or 5 respondents, when rounded). | |||||||||||
i Reports indicating no exceedances are required semiannually. | |||||||||||
j We have assumed that 90 percent of respondents will report no exceedances (48 x 0.9 = 43.2, or 43 respondents, when rounded). | |||||||||||
k We have assumed that 10 percent of respondents will file a startup, shutdown, malfunction report semiannually (48 x 0.1 = 4.8, or 5 respondents, when rounded). This requirement is not applicable on and after August 24, 2020. | |||||||||||
l We assume that costs associated with elimination of the SSM exemption include time for re-evaluating previously developed SSM record systems in year one. Costs are also associated with the use of electronic reporting and include time to become familiar with CEDRI and the semi-annual reporting form. | |||||||||||
m Responses in year one associated with the use of electronic reporting include becoming familiar with CEDRI and the semi-annual reporting form. | |||||||||||
n We have assumed that all information is entered on a weekly basis. | |||||||||||
o We have assumed that each of the 48 respondents will take 15 minutes to transmit or disclose information twice a year. | |||||||||||
p Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding. |

Assumptions: | |||||||||||
a We have assumed that there are approximately 48 respondents, with no additional new or reconstructed sources becoming subject to the rule over the next three years. This ICR assumes each respondent will incur a burden to re-familiarize themselves with the regulatory requirements each year. | |||||||||||
b This cost is based on the average hourly labor rate as follows: Managerial $73.46 (GS-13, Step 5, $44.91 + 60%); Technical $54.51 (GS-12, Step 1, $34.07 + 60%); and Clerical $29.50 (GS-6, Step 3, $18.44 + 60%). These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2023 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 It is assumed that it will take four hours to review the notification of the test and the test plan for each respondent. | |||||||||||
d Facilities that comply using emission capture systems and add-on controls conduct air emissions performance testing, within 3 years of the effective date of the revised standards. 21 facilities utilize 30 add-on VOC/HAP control devices and would require testing once every five years (21 sources/5 years = 4.2 sources per year). It is assumed that 5 percent of respondents will have to repeat performance tests. (4.2 x 0.05 = 0.21 per year) | |||||||||||
e It is assumed that 10 percent of respondents will report excess emissions (48 x 0.1 = 4.8, or 5 respondents, when rounded). | |||||||||||
f It is assumed that reports of excess emissions are required semiannually. | |||||||||||
g We have assumed that 90 percent of respondents will report no excess emissions (48 x 0.9 = 43.2, or 43 respondents, when rounded). | |||||||||||
h It is assumed that reports of no excess emissions are required semiannually. | |||||||||||
i We have assumed that 10 percent of respondents will submit startup, shutdown, malfunction reports to be reviewed (48 x 0.1 = 4.8, or 5 respondents, when rounded). This requirement is not applicable on and after August 24, 2020. | |||||||||||
j These are costs associated with evaluating new SSM record systems in year one of the 2020 rule amendments. | |||||||||||

a The O&M cost to maintain continuous temperature measuring monitor is $1,200 per respondent. The cost covers replacement of temperature sensor each calendar year. | ||||||||
b Emissions compliance testing costs are treated as capital costs because facilities routinely contract with a testing company to perform the testing. No O&M costs would be assumed to be associated with the periodic testing requirement. Assumes nine sources test two control devices each at a cost of $32,813 once every five years. Twelve sources test one control device each at a cost of $18,750 once every five years. Five percent of tests will be repeated at a cost of $18,750 each. Total test costs are divided by five years to estimate average capital cost per year. | ||||||||
