| TOTAL ANNUAL BURDEN AND COST (ROUNDED)k | 150,000 | $7,150,000 | |||||
| a. This ICR uses the following labor rates: $48.75 for technical, $65.71 for managerial, and $26.38 for clerical labor. These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) 2018 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 the 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 ($110 hotel + $58 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. On average, over the 3-year period of this ICR, we estimate 11,317 existing small solid boilers (i.e., units <10 MMBtu/hr) at 5,659 facilities will be subject to the rule. We also estimate 98 new boilers at 49 facilities per year, for a total of 11,416 boilers at 5,708 facilities. | 11317 | 5659 | 11416 | 5708 | ||||||||||||
| b. This ICR uses the following labor rates: $117.92 for technical, $147.40 for managerial, and $57.02 for clerical labor. These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, December 2018, “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. | ||||||||||||||||
