Reason for Changes in Burden and Cost

I3. Change in Burden and Cost for Petroleum and Natural Gas Systems (Subpart W) (cont.)

• Adjusted the labor hours and labor cost per facility to recognize the completion of the one‐time activities that

occurred in the first year of data collection.

• Corrected an error in the previous ICR, in which the burden associated with processing at LNG Storage Facilities and

Off‐Shore Production facilities was calculated incorrectly in Years 2 and 3 of the previous ICR.  

• Updated the labor rates used to calculate labor costs, adopting an approach consistent with the approach used in the

other subparts (see Appendix F).
