Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 159 / Thursday, August 16, 2018 / Notices 40761 

7The estimated hourly cost (salary plus benefits) 

provided in this section is based on the salary 

figures for May 2017 posted by the Bureau of Labor 

Statistics for the Utilities sector (available at http:// 

www.bls.gov/oes/current/naics2_22.htm#13-0000) 

and scaled to reflect benefits using the relative 

importance of employer costs in employee 

compensation from May 2017 (available at https:// 

www.bls.gov/oes/current/naics2_22.htm). The 

hourly estimates for salary plus benefits are: 

Petroleum Engineer (Occupation Code: 17–2051), 

$71.62. 

Computer Systems Analysts (Occupation Code: 

15–1120), $46.26. 

Legal (Occupation Code: 23–0000), $143.68. 

Economist (Occupation Code: 19–3011), $71.98. 

The average hourly cost (salary plus benefits) is 

calculated weighting each of the aforementioned 

wage categories as follows: $71.62 (0.3) + $143.68 

(0.3) + $46.26 (0.15) + $71.98 (0.25) = $89.52. The 

Commission rounds it to $90/hour.

additional or amended standards (to 

include principles, definitions, 

standards, data elements, process

appropriate process may take place to 

amend the standards.
