Short Statement: There is an overall increase in burden in this ICR from the most recently approved ICR. This is due to an increase in the estimated number of sources subject to the regulation, and is not caused by program changes. We estimate the industry will continue to grow at the rate of one new source per year. This results in increases in the respondent labor hours, number of responses, and capital/O&M costs.
