The Consolidated Air Rule (CAR) for the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI) (Renewal)

1. Identification of the Information Collection

      1(a) Title of the Information Collection

The Consolidated Air Rule (CAR) for the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI) (Renewal), EPA ICR Number 1854.11, OMB Control Number 2060-0443. 

      1(b) Short Characterization/Abstract

      The Consolidated Federal Air Rule (CAR) for the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI) (40 CFR Part 65) were promulgated on December 14, 2000; and amended on: August 27, 2007; November 12, 2010; August 11, 2011; and June 25, 2013. The CAR regulations are an optional compliance approach for new and existing SOCMI facilities that must comply with existing Subparts in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR).  The CAR is a consolidation of major portions of 15 different New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) and National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) pertaining to storage vessels, process vents, transfer racks, equipment leaks, and the general provisions for the three applicable parts (40 CFR Parts 60, 61, and 63). These Subparts from 40 CFR Parts 60, 61, and 63 are referred to as "referencing Subparts" because they have been amended to refer to the CAR as a compliance alternative. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification or reconstruction after the date of proposal of the applicable referencing Subpart(s). The referencing subparts include 40 CFR Part 60, Subparts Ka, Kb, VV, VVa, DDD, III, NNN, and RRR; 40 CFR Part 61, Subparts BB, Y, and V; 40 CFR Part 63, Subparts F, G, H, and I. This information collection request (ICR) is for the CAR and its referencing Subparts and the information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 65.
      
      Compliance with the CAR is a voluntary alternative. Sources may either continue to comply with existing applicable rules or may choose to comply with the consolidated rule. All existing sources must be in compliance with the requirements of the CAR and/or its referencing Subparts within three years of the effective date (i.e., promulgation date) of the appropriate standard for the affected source. All new sources must be in compliance with the requirements of the CAR and/or its referencing Subparts upon startup or the promulgation date of standards for an affected source, whichever is later. 

      In general, the NSPS, NESHAP, CAR, and maximum achievable control technology (MACT) standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to these standards.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Any owner/operator subject to the provisions of this part shall maintain a file containing these documents, and retain the file for at least two years, if not required to obtain or operate a regulated source under a title V permit, or five years if required to obtain or operate a regulated source under a title V permit following the generation date of such maintenance reports and records. All reports are sent to the delegated state or local authority. If there is no such delegated authority, the reports are sent directly to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regional office.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The "Affected Public" are owners or operators of synthetic organic chemical manufacturing facilities. The "burden" to the Affected Public may be found below in Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR. The "burden" to the Federal Government is attributed entirely to work performed by either Federal employees or government contractors and may also be found below Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       Over the next three years, approximately 1,356 respondents per year will be subject to the CAR at 40 CFR Part 65 or the referencing Subparts. It is assumed that all new sources will initially comply with the appropriate referencing Subpart. A breakdown of the number of respondents complying with the CAR and each referencing Subpart is provided in Column A of Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR. These estimates reflect a significant decrease in the number of respondents for the referencing subparts and the CAR from the prior ICR, which listed approximately 5,198 respondents. These estimates are based on EPA's recent reevaluation of the source category inventories for the referencing subparts 40 CFR Part 60, Subparts Ka, Kb, VV, VVa, DDD, III, NNN, and RRR, and 40 CFR Part 63, Subparts F, G, H, and I. The data collected shows a significant reduction in the number of respondents for several reasons. For many subparts, the original inventories for the referencing subparts were based on industrial census data of facilities in certain NAICS codes, regardless of their emissions, when the rules were developed. In some cases, the referencing subpart is based on an applicability date for affected sources that has previously passed, where no new facilities are expected and existing facilities would be expected to retire over time.  The revised estimates are based on review of state and regional air permits which were collected as part of data gathering for recent EPA rulemaking efforts, as well as data provided through EPA's Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO) database. The revised ICR reflects a decrease in burden based on these updates to the number of respondents. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approved the currently active ICR without any "Terms of Clearance".

                        The CAR (Consolidated Air Rule)
                                       
      The 2007 Direct Final Rule for Revisions to the CAR includes direct final amendments to the General Provisions of the CAR which allow source owners and operators to petition the Administrator for an extension of the regulatory deadline to conduct performance tests during force majeure events. A force majeure event is an event caused by circumstances beyond the control of the affected facility, its contractors, or any entity controlled by the affected facility that resulted in not meeting the regulatory requirement to conduct performance tests within the specified timeframe despite the affected facility's best efforts to fulfill the obligation. Examples of such events are acts of nature, acts of war, terrorism, equipment failure, or safety hazard beyond the control of the affected facility. The source owner or operator must provide to the Administrator a written description of the event and a rationale for attributing the delay in testing beyond the regulatory deadline to the force majeure; describe the measures taken or to be taken to minimize the delay; and identify a date by which the performance test would be conducted.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     NESHAP Subpart BB: Benzene Emissions from Benzene Transfer Operations

      The National Emission Standards for Benzene Emissions from Benzene Transfer Operations were proposed on September 14, 1989, promulgated on March 7, 1990, and most- recently amended on December 14, 2000. The affected facility to which this subpart applies is the total of all loading racks handling a liquid containing 70 weight-percent or more benzene, at which benzene is loaded into tank trucks, railcars, or marine vessels at each benzene production facility and each bulk terminal. However, specifically exempted from this regulation are loading racks at which only the following are loaded: benzene-laden waste (covered under Subpart FF of Part 61), gasoline, crude oil, natural gas liquids, petroleum distillates (i.e., fuel oil, diesel, or kerosene), or benzene-laden liquid from coke by-product recovery plants. In addition, any affected facility which loads only liquid containing less than 70 weight-percent benzene or whose annual benzene loading is less than 1.3 million liters of 70 weight-percent or more benzene is exempt from the control requirements except for the recordkeeping and reporting requirements in §61.305(i). Marine vessels were given a one-year industry wide waiver of compliance, which was later extended to July 23, 1991, in order to allow for concurrent compliance with U.S. Coast Guard regulations. The regulated pollutant is benzene. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 61, Subpart BB.

       NESHAP Subpart Y: Benzene Emissions from Benzene Storage Vessels 

      The NESHAP for Benzene Emissions from Storage Vessels were proposed in 1980, re-promulgated in 1989 (54 FR 38077) as 40 CFR Part 61, Subpart Y, and most-recently amended on December 14, 2000. Entities affected by this action are those owners and operators of benzene storage vessels that store benzene having a specific gravity within the range of specific gravities as specified in ASTM D836-84 for Industrial Grade Benzene, ATM D835-85 for Refined Benzene-485, ASTM D2359-85a or 93 for Refined Benzene-535, and ASTM D4734-87 or 96 for Refined Benzene-545. Storage vessels with a design storage capacity less than 38 cubic meters (10,000 gallons) are exempt from the provisions of the subpart. Similarly, storage vessels used for storing benzene at coke by-product facilities or vessels permanently attached to motor vehicles, such as trucks, rail cars, barges, ships, or pressure vessels designed to operate in excess of 204.9 kPa and without emissions to the atmosphere, are also exempt from this subpart. The regulated pollutant is benzene. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 61, Subpart Y.

NESHAP Subpart V: National Emission Standard for Equipment Leaks (Fugitive Emission Sources)

      The NESHAP for National Emission Standard for Equipment Leaks (Fugitive Emission Sources) was promulgated on June 6, 1984 (49 FR 23573) and most-recently amended on December 14, 2000. Affected facilities include the following sources that are intended to operate in volatile hazardous air pollutant (HAP) service: pumps, compressors, pressure relief devices, sampling connection systems, open-ended valves or lines, valves, flanges and other connectors, product accumulator vessels, and control devices or systems. The standards for this subpart are leak detection and repair (LDAR). The regulated pollutants are volatile HAPs. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 61, Subpart V.

      NESHAP Subparts F, G, H, and I: The Hazardous Organic NESHAP (HON)

      The MACT standards for the Hazardous Organic NESHAP (HON) were proposed on December 31, 1992 and promulgated on April 22, 1994. Subpart F was most-recently amended on April 20, 2006. Subpart G was most-recently amended on February 27, 2014 to allow the use of Method 316 or Method 8260B in the SW-846 Compendium of Methods to determine HAP concentrations in wastewater streams. Subpart H was most-recently amended on December 22, 2008. Subpart I was most-recently amended on June 23, 2003. The HON standards apply to chemical manufacturing process units (CMPU's) in the SOCMI that manufacture as a primary product one or more of the chemicals listed in Table 1 of 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart F; use as a reactant or manufacture as a product, by-product, or co-product, one or more of the organic HAPs listed in Table 2 of Subpart F; and are located at a plant site that is a major source as defined in section 112(a) of the Act. Additionally, styrene-butadiene rubber production, pesticide production, polybutadiene production, chlorinated hydrocarbon use in the production of chemicals, pharmaceutical production, and miscellaneous butadiene use are subject to the negotiated regulations affecting equipment leaks promulgated under Subpart I. The emission points include transfer racks, storage tanks, wastewater systems, process vents and equipment leaks. These regulations apply to existing sources, as well as for new sources either commencing construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. Hazardous air pollutants are the pollutants regulated under these subparts. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subparts F, G, H, and I.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Need for and Use of the Collection
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      2(a) Need/Authority for the Collection
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The EPA is charged under Section 111 of the Clean Air Act (CAA), as amended, to establish standards of performance for new stationary sources that reflect: 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            . . . application of the best technological system of continuous emissions reduction which (taking into consideration the cost of achieving such emissions reduction, or any non-air quality health and environmental impact and energy requirements) the Administrator determines has been adequately demonstrated. Section 111(a)(l).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The Agency refers to this charge as selecting the best demonstrated technology (BDT). Section 111 also requires that the Administrator review and, if appropriate, revise such standards every eight years.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The EPA is also charged under Section 112 of the Clean Air Act, as amended, to establish standards of performance for each category or subcategory of major sources and area sources of hazardous air pollutants. These standards are applicable to new or existing sources    of hazardous air pollutants and shall require the maximum degree of emission reduction. In addition, section 114(a) states that the Administrator may require any owner/operator subject     to any requirement of this Act to: 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (A) Establish and maintain such records; (B) make such reports; (C) install, use, and maintain such monitoring equipment, and use such audit procedures, or methods; (D) sample such emissions (in accordance with such procedures or methods, at such locations, at such intervals, during such periods, and in such manner as the Administrator shall prescribe); (E) keep records on control equipment parameters, production variables or other indirect data when direct monitoring of emissions is impractical; (F) submit compliance certifications in accordance with Section 114(a)(3); and (G) provide such other information as the Administrator may reasonably require.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      In the Administrator's judgment, VOC, benzene and HAP emissions from storage vessels, process vents, transfer racks, and equipment leaks associated with the SOCMI either cause or contribute to air pollution that may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health and/or welfare. Therefore, the NSPS and NESHAP were promulgated for this source category at 40 CFR Parts 60, 61, and 63 referencing Subparts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      2(b) Practical Utility/Users of the Data
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The recordkeeping and reporting requirements in these standards ensure compliance with the applicable regulations, which were promulgated in accordance with the Clean Air Act. The collected information is also used for targeting inspections and as evidence in legal proceedings.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Performance tests are required in order to determine an affected facility's initial capability to comply with the emission standards. Continuous emission monitors are used to ensure compliance with the standards at all times. During the performance test a record of the operating parameters under which compliance was achieved may be recorded and used to determine compliance in place of a continuous emission monitor.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The notifications required in the standards are used to inform either the Agency or its delegated authority when a source becomes subject to the requirements of the regulations. The reviewing authority may then inspect the source to check if the pollution control devices are properly installed and operated, leaks are being detected and repaired and the standards are being met. The performance test may also be observed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The required reports are used to determine periods of excess emissions, identify problems at the facility, verify operation/maintenance procedures, and for compliance determinations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Non-duplication, Consultations, and Other Collection Criteria
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The requested recordkeeping and reporting are required under 40 CFR Parts 60, 61, and 63 referencing Subparts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(a) Non-duplication
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       If the subject standards have not been delegated, the information is sent directly to the appropriate EPA regional office. Otherwise, the information is sent directly to the delegated state or local agency. If a state or local agency has adopted its own similar standards to implement the Federal standards, a copy of the report submitted to the state or local agency can be sent to the Administrator in lieu of the report required by the Federal standards. Therefore, duplication does not exist.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(b) Public Notice Required Prior to ICR Submission to OMB
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      An announcement of a public comment period for the renewal of this ICR was published in the Federal Register (84 FR 19777) on May 6, 2019. No comments were received on the burden published in the Federal Register for this renewal.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(c) Consultations

      The Agency has consulted industry experts and internal data sources to project the number of affected facilities and industry growth over the next three years. The primary source of information as reported by industry, in compliance with the recordkeeping and reporting provisions in the standard, is the Integrated Compliance Information System (ICIS). ICIS is EPA's database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance data for industrial and government-owned facilities. The growth rate for the industry is based on our consultations with the Agency's internal industry experts. The revised estimates are based on review of state and regional air permits which were collected as part of data gathering for recent EPA rulemaking efforts, as well as for data provided through EPA's Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO) database.

      Industry trade associations and other interested parties were provided an opportunity to comment on the burden associated with these standards as they were being developed and that these standards have been reviewed previously to determine the minimum information needed for compliance purposes. In developing this ICR, we contacted both the Society of Chemical Manufacturers and Affiliates (SOCMA), at (571) 348-5138, and the American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM), at (202) 457-0480. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(d) Effects of Less-Frequent Collection
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Less-frequent information collection would decrease the margin of assurance that facilities are continuing to meet the standards. Requirements for information gathering and recordkeeping are useful techniques to ensure that good operation and maintenance practices are applied and that emission limitations are met. If the information required by these standards was collected less frequently, the proper operation and maintenance of control equipment and the possibility of detecting violations would be less likely.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(e) General Guidelines
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      With the following exception, these reporting or recordkeeping requirements do not violate any of the regulations promulgated by OMB under 5 CFR Part 1320, Section 1320.5.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The standards at 40 CFR Part 63 Subparts F, G, and H require the respondents to maintain all records, including reports and notifications for at least five years (unless otherwise noted in these standards). The CAR standards require that respondents required to obtain or operate a regulated source under a title V permit to maintain all records, including reports and notifications for at least five years. All other referencing Subparts and respondents opting to comply with the CAR that are not required to obtain or operate a regulated source under a title V permit are required to maintain records for at least two years. This is consistent with the General Provisions as applied to the standards. EPA believes that the five-year records retention requirement is consistent with the Part 70 permit program and the five-year statute of limitations on which the permit program is based. The retention of records for five years allows EPA to establish the compliance history of a source, any pattern of non-compliance and to determine the appropriate level of enforcement action. The EPA has found that the most flagrant violators have violations extending beyond five years. In addition, the EPA would be prevented from pursuing the violators due to the destruction or nonexistence of essential records. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(f) Confidentiality
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Any information submitted to the Agency for which a claim of confidentiality is made will be safeguarded according to the Agency policies set forth in Title 40, chapter 1, part 2, subpart B - Confidentiality of Business Information (CBI) (see 40 CFR 2; 41 FR 36902, September 1, 1976; amended by 43 FR 40000, September 8, 1978; 43 FR 42251, September 20, 1978; 44 FR 17674, March 23, 1979).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      4(b) Information Requested
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (i) Data Items
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      In this ICR, all the data that is either recorded or reported is required by the Consolidated Air Rule (CAR) for the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI) (40 CFR Part 65) or the referencing Subparts. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Attachment A lists the recordkeeping and reporting requirements for the CAR and its referencing Subparts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Electronic Reporting
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Some of the respondents are using monitoring equipment that automatically records parameter data. Although personnel at the affected facility must still evaluate the data, internal automation has significantly reduced the `burden' associated with monitoring and recordkeeping at a plant site.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. The Information Collected: Agency Activities, Collection Methodology, and Information Management
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      5(a) Agency Activities
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Agency activities associated with the CAR are presented below in Table 1: Agency Activities. Agency burden associated with the CAR provisions are presented below in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the CAR Provisions. Agency burden associated with the CAR direct final standards are presented below in Table 3: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the CAR Direct Final Standards. Agency burden associated with the referencing Subparts are shown below in Tables F-1 through F-12: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the referencing Subparts, respectively. EPA conducts one or more of these activities in connection with the acquisition, analysis, storage, and distribution of the required information.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      5(b) Collection Methodology and Management
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Following notification of startup, the reviewing authority could inspect the source to determine whether the pollution control devices are properly installed and operated. Performance test reports are used by the Agency to discern a source's initial capability to comply with the emission standards and to note the operating conditions under which compliance was achieved. Data and records maintained by the respondents are tabulated and published for use in compliance and enforcement programs. The quarterly, semiannual, or annual reports are used for problem identification, as a check on source operation and maintenance, and for compliance determinations.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Information contained in the reports is reported by state and local governments in the ICIS Air database, which is operated and maintained by EPA's Office of Compliance. ICIS is EPA's database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance data for industrial and government-owned facilities. The EPA uses ICIS for tracking air pollution compliance and enforcement by local and state regulatory agencies, EPA regional offices and EPA headquarters. The EPA and its delegated authorities can edit, store, retrieve and analyze the data.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       The records required by the standards at 40 CFR Part 63, Subparts F, G, and H (unless otherwise noted in these standards) and the CAR standards for respondents required to obtain or operate a regulated source under a title V permit must be retained by the owner/operator for five years. The records required by all other referencing Subparts and the CAR standards for respondents not required to obtain or operate a regulated source under a title V permit must be retained by the owner/operator for two years.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      5(c) Small Entity Flexibility
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      A majority of the respondents are large entities (i.e., large businesses). However, the impact on small entities (i.e., small businesses) was taken into consideration during the development of the regulation. Due to technical considerations involving the process operations and the types of control equipment employed, the recordkeeping and reporting requirements are the same for both small and large entities. The Agency considers these to be the minimum requirements needed to ensure compliance and, therefore, cannot reduce them further for small entities. To the extent that larger businesses can use economies of scale to reduce their burden, the overall burden will be reduced.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      5(d) Collection Schedule
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The specific frequency for each information collection activity within this request is shown below in Table 5: Basis for Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the CAR, and  Tables G-1 through G-13: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the referencing Subparts, respectively.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Estimating the Burden and Cost of the Collection
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Table 6: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the CAR Provisions, Table 7: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the Direct Final Standards, and Tables G-1 through G-13: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the referencing Subparts, respectively, document the computation of individual burdens for the recordkeeping and reporting requirements applicable to the industry for the CAR and each of the referencing Subparts included in this ICR. The individual burdens are expressed under standardized headings believed to be consistent with the concept of `Burden' under the Paperwork Reduction Act. Where appropriate, specific tasks and major assumptions have been identified. Responses to this information collection are mandatory.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      6(a) Estimating Respondent Burden
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The average annual burden to industry over the next three years from these recordkeeping and reporting requirements is estimated to be 1,100,000 (Total Labor Hours from Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR, below). These hours are based on Agency studies and background documents from the development of these regulations, Agency knowledge and experience with both the NSPS and NESHAP programs, the previously-approved ICR, and any comments received.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      6(b) Estimating Respondent Costs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (i) Estimating Labor Costs 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      This ICR uses the following labor rates: 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Managerial	$141.06 ($67.17+ 110%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Technical	$120.27 ($57.27 + 110%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Clerical	$58.67 ($27.94 + 110%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, September 2019, "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.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (ii) Estimating Capital/Startup and Operation and Maintenance Costs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The type of industry costs associated with the information collection activities in the subject standards are both labor costs, which are addressed elsewhere in this ICR, and the costs associated with continuous monitoring. The capital/startup costs are one-time costs when a facility becomes subject to these regulations. The annual operation and maintenance costs are the ongoing costs to maintain the monitor(s) and other costs such as photocopying and postage.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Because we assume that no new sources will opt to comply with the CAR at startup over the next 3 years, there is no capital/startup cost associated with the CAR. Facilities that comply with the CAR are assumed to have already purchased any equipment needed to comply with the referencing Subpart. There is no capital/startup cost associated with the Direct Final Rule for Revisions to the CAR. Both Capital/startup and O&M costs for the CAR and referencing Subparts are summarized below in Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Details of the capital/startup and O&M costs, as taken from the most-recently approved ICR for the CAR and referencing Subparts, are detailed in Attachment J.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (iii) Capital/Startup vs. Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Costs

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
a  We assume that 5% of the 19 new respondents use a CVS as control, and that 5% of all existing storage tanks use a CVS as control. (413 existing respondents x 11.3 tanks per respondent x 5% tanks with CVS = 233)		
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[b]  We assume that 5 new process units are subject to NSPS Subpart VVa each year, and that 15 percent of all new sources are area sources, and that only area sources that construct new process units might purchase a monitoring instrument. (5 new respondents x 15% = 1 (rounded)) 	
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[c]  We estimate that 80 percent of new facilities contract out LDAR services, and 20 percent perform in-house.  The 2 facilities (rounded) which contract out will purchase one unit as backup. The 1 remaining facility (rounded) performing LDAR in-house will purchase 5 units to support the program.  The total annual capital/startup cost is 7 units x $1,400 = $9,800.		
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[d]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The total capital/startup costs for this ICR are $485,000. This is the total of column D in the above table. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The total operation and maintenance (O&M) costs for this ICR are $63,500,000. This is the total of column G. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The average annual cost for capital/startup and operation and maintenance costs to industry over the next three years of the ICR is estimated to be $64,000,000. These are the recordkeeping costs.

      6(c) Estimating Agency Burden and Cost
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The only costs to the Agency are those costs associated with analysis of the reported information. EPA's overall compliance and enforcement program includes activities such as the examination of records maintained by the respondents, periodic inspection of sources of emissions, and the publication and distribution of collected information. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The average annual Agency cost during the three years of the ICR is estimated to be $450,000. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      This cost is based on the average hourly labor rate as follows:

		Managerial	$66.62 (GS-13, Step 5, $41.64 + 60%)
		Technical	$49.44 (GS-12, Step 1, $30.90 + 60%)
      Clerical	$26.75 (GS-6, Step 3, $16.72 + 60%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2019 General Schedule, which excludes locality rates of pay. The rates have been increased by 60 percent to account for the benefit packages available to Federal government employees. Details upon which this estimate is based appear below in: Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the CAR Provisions; Table 3: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the Direct Final Standards; and Tables F-1 through F-12: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the referencing Subparts, and is summarized overall in Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR.

      6(d) Estimating the Respondent Universe and Total Burden and Costs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Based on our research for this ICR, on average over the next three years, the total number of respondents is 1,356. will be subject to these standards. For the CAR, the direct final rule for revisions to the CAR, and the referencing Subparts, the calculation of respondents is summarized in Column (A) of Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The number of Total Annual Responses is 4,239. For the CAR, the direct final rule for revisions to the CAR, and the referencing Subparts, the calculation of responses is summarized below in Column (B) of Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR. A detailed breakdown of the Total Annual Responses specifically associated with the CAR, the direct final rule for revisions to the CAR, and the referencing Subparts is provided below in Table 9: Summary of Total Annual Responses for Referencing Subparts and the CAR. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The total annual labor costs are $128,000,000. Details regarding these estimates may be found below in the following tables: Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR; Table 6: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the CAR Provisions; Table 7: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the Direct Final Standards; and Tables G-1 through G-13: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the referencing Subparts.

            (i) Respondent Tally
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The total annual labor hours are 1,100,000 hours. Details regarding these estimates may be found in Table 6: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the CAR Provisions; Table 7: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the Direct Final Standards; and Tables G-1 through G-13: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost for the referencing Subparts, respectively.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      We assume that burdens for managerial tasks take 5% of the time required for technical tasks because the typical tasks for managers are to review and approve reports. Clerical burdens are assumed to take 10% of the time required for technical tasks because the typical duties of clerical staff are to proofread the reports, make copies and maintain records.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Furthermore, the annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 259 hours per response.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The total annual capital/startup and O&M costs to the regulated entity are $64,000,000. The cost calculations are detailed in Section 6(b)(iii), Capital/Startup vs. Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Costs.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                  
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (ii) The Agency Tally
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The average annual Agency burden and cost over next three years is estimated to be 9,400 labor hours at a cost of $450,000; see below in Table 8: Summary of Respondent and Agency Burden and Cost for Referencing Subparts and the CAR and detailed in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the CAR Provisions; Table 3: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the Direct Final Standards; and Tables F-1 through F-12: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost for the referencing Subparts.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      We assume that burdens for managerial tasks take 5% of the time required for technical tasks because the typical tasks for managers are to review and approve reports. Clerical burdens are assumed to take 10% of the time required for technical tasks because the typical duties of clerical staff are to proofread the reports, make copies and maintain records.

      6(f) Reasons for Change in Burden
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      There is a decrease in the total estimated respondent labor burden and associated labor, capital/startup and O&M costs. This decrease is not due to any program changes. The decrease is due to a reduction in the numbers of new and existing respondents for many of the Subparts. These estimates reflect a significant decrease in the number of respondents for the referencing subparts and the CAR from the prior ICR, which listed approximately 5,198 respondents. These estimates are based on the EPA's recent re-evaluation of the source category inventories for the referencing subparts 40 CFR Part 60, Subparts Ka, Kb, VV, VVa, DDD, III, NNN, and RRR, and 40 CFR Part 63, Subparts F, G, H, and I. The revised estimates are based on review of state and regional air permits which were collected as part of data gathering for recent EPA rulemaking efforts, as well as for data provided through EPA's Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO) database. The revised ICR reflects a decrease in burden based on these updates to the number of respondents. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      There are several primary reasons for the decrease. (1) For older NSPS and NESHAP, the number of respondents decreases over time as equipment is modified or reconstructed and sources become subject to newer standards. This has led to a decrease in the number of existing sources for Subparts Ka and VV. (2) The various industries have consolidated over time as businesses buy their competitor's operations, resulting in a decrease in the number of plants. (3) For many referencing Subparts, the original inventories were based on industrial census data of facilities in certain NAICS codes, regardless of their emissions, when the rules were developed. The revised data for respondents for each Subpart is based on a review of state and regional air permits which collected for the development of other recent chemical manufacturing rules, as well as for data provided through EPA's Enforcement and Compliance History Online (ECHO) database. (4) Many of the affected industries are mature and demand for their product is not growing or is decreasing due to product substitution. And (5) The Agency has updated reporting information indicating that fewer sources are using the CAR than the Agency originally estimated. The decrease in estimates of existing and new respondents for many of the affected Subparts is due to a revision in the Agency's estimates. The following table shows the change in the number of new and existing respondents from the previous ICR:

      There is also an increase in per-response burden costs from the most-recently approved ICR due to the use of updated labor rates. This ICR uses labor rates from the most-recent Bureau of Labor Statistics report (2019) to calculate respondent burden costs.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      6(g) Burden Statement
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 259 hours per response. `Burden' means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information either to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      An agency may neither conduct nor sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to,   a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB Control Number. The OMB Control Numbers for EPA regulations are listed at 40 CFR Part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter 15.

	To comment on the Agency's need for this information, the accuracy of the provided burden estimates, and any suggested methods for minimizing respondent burden, including the use of automated collection techniques, the EPA has established a public docket for this ICR under Docket ID Number EPA-HQ-OECA-2013-0350. An electronic version of the public docket is available at http://www.regulations.gov/, which may be used to obtain a copy of the draft collection of information, submit or view public comments, access the index listing of the contents of the docket, and to access those documents in the public docket that are available electronically. When in the system, select "search," then key in the docket ID number identified in this document. The documents are also available for public viewing at the Enforcement and Compliance Docket and Information Center in the EPA Docket Center (EPA/DC), WJC West, Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave., NW, Washington, DC. The EPA Docket Center Public Reading Room is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding legal holidays. The telephone number for the Reading Room is (202) 566-1744, and the telephone number for the docket center is (202) 566-1752. Also, you can send comments to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, 725 17th Street, NW, Washington, DC 20503, Attention: Desk Officer for EPA. Please include the EPA Docket ID Number EPA-HQ-OECA-2013-0350 and OMB Control Number 2060-0443 in any correspondence.

Assumptions:

[a]  This ICR uses the following labor rates:  $66.62 for managerial, $49.44 for technical,  and $26.75 for clerical labor.   These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2019 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]  We assume no new sources will opt to comply with the CAR at startup over the next 3 years.
c  We estimate 181 equipment leak sources will comply with the CAR (139 from the HON, 23 from subpart VV and 19 from subpart V - see Table 4).  Reports for equipment leaks will be submitted semiannually (181 x 2 = 362 per year).  See Attachment C for assumptions and further description of activities.
[d]  We estimate 25 percent of the 180 SOCMI facilities, which equals 45 facilities, will opt to comply with the CAR and must submit periodic reports each year.
[e]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:
[a]  This table provides estimates on a per-source basis, rather than a per-facility basis. Therefore, estimates correlate to (as described in the footnote to the appropriate Table), but do not match, facility entries in the reference subpart burden tables (Tables F-1 through F-12, and G-1 through G-13). For the purposes of this ICR, a source is defined as:
  - One storage vessel (Subparts Ka, Kb, Y, and G);
  - One process vent (Subparts DDD, III, NNN, RRR, and G);
  - The collection of subject equipment for one process unit (Subparts VV, VVa, V, and H and I); or
  - One transfer rack (Subparts BB and G).
[b]  Based on the number of sources per facility from the most recently approved CAR ICR.  Because the CAR is designed for, although not limited to, SOCMI facilities, the number of facilities opting to comply with the CAR is based on the estimated number of SOCMI facilities.  It is estimated that 25 percent of non-Hazardous Organic NESHAP (HON) sources will opt to comply with the CAR if the per-source burden of complying with the CAR is less than the per-source burden of complying with the referencing subpart.  For those referencing subparts for which the per-source burden of complying with the CAR is higher than the per-source burden of complying with the referencing subpart (subparts Ka, Kb, Y, VV, VVa, III, NNN, RRR, and DDD), it is estimated that 5 percent of sources will opt to comply with the CAR.  It is also estimated that 25 percent of HON sources will opt to comply with the CAR.

Assumptions:

a  The HON, the basis for the CAR burden estimate, requires connector monitoring.  Sources originally complying with subpart V or VV will not be required to perform connector monitoring.  Connector monitoring for these facilities is the average of the per source burden for subparts V and VV.  The average for subparts V and VV is 294 hours, 40.9 percent less than the HON-based estimate.  Per-source estimates for each burden item were estimated by multiplying the HON-based estimate by 40.9 percent.
[b]  From the most recently approved CAR ICR.
[c]  Total burden for each source type is the product of the per-source burden and the total number of sources estimated to opt to comply with the CAR.  The estimated numbers of sources to comply with the CAR is from the most recently approved ICR and are detailed in Table 4:
- process vents - 381

- storage vessels - 695

- transfer racks - 185

- equipment leaks with connector monitoring - 139

- equipment leaks without connector monitoring - 42

- facilities (used for inventory estimate) - 45

[d]  Total burden for each burden item is the sum of totals for each source type.  This burden represents technical hours only and is the basis for determining total burden in Table 6.
[e]  This ICR assumes all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.

Assumptions:

[a]  Following is a brief explanation of each column.  A more detailed description is provided in Attachment E.
(A) Average hours per activity are back-calculated by dividing (C) by (B).
(B) Number of activities per year is based on the estimate of number of activities per year for the HON, with a reduction to reflect the consolidation of activities achieved through the CAR.
(C) Technical hours per year per respondent are the total technical hours for a burden item as estimated in Table 5, divided by 45 facilities.
(D) Estimated technical hours per year are the total technical hours for all facilities for each burden item, as estimated in Table 5.
(E) Estimated managerial hours per year are assumed to be 5 percent of technical hours.
(F) Estimated clerical hours per year are assumed to be 10 percent of technical hours.
(G) Annual Cost is the sum of costs for technical, managerial, and clerical hours.  This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical, and $58.67 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, "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.
[b]  This ICR assumes all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.
[c]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

a  This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical,  and $58.67 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, "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.
[b]  This ICR assumes all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.
[c]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions and Item Descriptions for Table 2

Assumptions:

Assumptions are the same as Attachment E, and:

    (A) That there are 181 total sources (139 from the HON, 23 from Subpart VV, 0 from Subpart VVa, and 19 from Subpart V) that must submit semiannual reports from equipment leak detection and repair programs as well as semiannual periodic reports.  This equates to 362 EPA activities (181 x 2) during each of the three years following promulgation.

    (B) That all sources have already submitted an initial notification of Part 65 applicability and no new respondents will opt to comply with Part 65.

Item descriptions:

    (a) Average hours per activity are estimates of the specific activities and are the basis for estimating the overall burden.

    (b) Number of activities per year represents the number of reports expected to be reviewed and other related activities during the course of the year, based upon assumptions (A) and (B), above.

    (c) Estimated technical hours per year is the product of (a) and (b).

    (d) Estimated managerial hours per year is 5 percent of (c).

    (e) Estimated clerical hours per year is 10 percent of (c).

    (f) Annual cost per year is the total cost of technical, managerial, and clerical hours and overhead using this formula:

    (Ht x $49.44/hour) + (Hm x $66.62/hour) + (Hc x $26.75/hour) = (H)

    Where:
            Ht is (c), or technical hours,
            Hm is (d), or managerial hours, and
            Hc is (e), or clerical hours.
    
    These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2019 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.

Report Review:

    1) Initial notification of Part 65 applicability, Title V modification represents the EPA review of either the initial notification of Part 65 applicability report or the source's Title V modification through which the source notifies EPA that it intends to comply with the CAR.  As noted in the supporting statement text, the EPA does not expect any new sources to elect to comply with the CAR during the 3-year period following promulgation.

    2) Review equipment leak monitoring represents the review and screening of periodic reports received as a result of the equipment leaks standard.

    3) Review periodic reports represents the EPA review of periodic reports from new and existing sources.

TOTAL ANNUAL BURDEN AND COST (ROUNDED) is the sum of columns (e), (f), and (g), and of (h), respectively.
                                 Attachment D
                                       
Purposely left blank.

                                 Attachment E
                                       
Assumptions and Item Descriptions for Table 6 

Assumptions:
      
    (A) That there are 180 existing facilities, of which 25% (45) chose to comply with the CAR.
    
    (B) That the average representative source will consist of a variety of sources.  The total number of sources expected to comply with the CAR includes (from Table 5):
    
      ::	381 process vents;
      ::	695 storage vessels;
      ::	185 transfer racks;
      ::	139 collections of subject equipment, including connectors;
      ::	42 collections of subject equipment, not including connectors; and
		::	45 facility wide inventories of emission points.

    (C) That there are 5 percent (0.05) managerial and 10 percent (0.10) clerical hours required for every technical hour.

    (D) That some activities necessary to generate reports involve creating records in the process, and that these activities are assumed to be reports activities alone, to avoid double counting these as records activities as well.  Therefore, only items 8 and 9 are considered records burdens directly.

Item descriptions:

    (a) Average hours per activity is back-calculated by dividing (b) into (c).  Since the activities within each burden category can vary significantly, it is too inaccurate to assume an average to use to calculate (c).  Estimated activity technical hours are calculated in Table 5 and entered into column (d); (a) is then back-calculated with an estimated (b).
    
    (b) Estimated number of activities per year per source represents the assumed typical number of separate activities a source may encounter during one year.  This number may vary from facility to facility depending on consolidation of activities, co-located readings, etc.  Since so much variability exists, it is important to note that this is an estimate.  This number was only used to back-calculate (a).  The numbers are based on the number of activities per year estimated for complying with the HON.  The numbers have been reduced to reflect the consolidation of activities achieved through the CAR.
    
    (c) Technical hours per year per respondent is the total technical hours for a burden item, as estimated in Table 5, divided by 45 facilities.  Because of the variability in the number and combination of sources at a facility, this value could vary widely.
    
    (d) Estimated technical hours per year is the sum of total technical hours for all sources for each burden item, as estimated in Table 5.
    
    (e) Estimated managerial hours per year is 5 percent of (d).
    
    (f) Estimated clerical hours per year is 10 percent of (d).
    
    (g) Annual cost per year is the total cost of technical, managerial, and clerical hours and overhead using this formula:
    
      (Ht x $120.27/hour) + (Hm x $141.06/hour) + (Hc x $58.67/hour) = (G)

      Where:
           Ht is (d), or technical hours,
           Hm is (e), or managerial hours, and
           Hc is (f), or clerical hours.
      
      These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, September 2019, 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.
    
Report Review:

      1) Familiarize with regulatory requirements consists of the activities, less training, which involve comprehending the provisions in the standard and understanding how they apply to the respective points at a facility.

      2) Plan activities represents such burdens as design, redesign, and scheduling, as well as selecting methods of compliance.

      3) Training represents the portion of activities from 1) Familiarize with regulatory requirements for which an average facility would elect to provide class room instruction.  The standard does not require specific training itself.

      4) Creation, testing, research, and development are the activities involving testing, retesting, establishing operating ranges for parameters, and analyzing point by point applicability.  Monitor-related refit, calibration, and maintenance activities also are included under this heading.

      5) Gather information, monitor/inspect are the activities involving physical inspections of equipment, collection of monitored data, and other related activities.

      6) Process/compile and review are the activities that involve analysis of the collected information for accuracy and compliance, as well as appropriate records and reports required as a result.

      7) Complete forms represents the activities normally associated with filling out forms.  Since the standard requires no standard forms, these activities relate to the preparing of formal reports and cover letters.

      8) Record/disclose are solely recordkeeping activities which occur once the appropriate report information has been extracted; see assumption, (D) above.  These activities involve software translation, duplication, or archival processes normally associated with data management and storage common to this industry.

      9) Store/file are activities which are solely recordkeeping which occur once the appropriate report information has been extracted; see assumption (D), above.  These activities involve the management life cycle of records, from the time they are filed and boxed up, to the time they are disposed.

TOTAL ANNUAL BURDEN AND COST (rounded) is the sum of columns (d), (e), (f), and of (g), respectively.

Assumptions:

[a]  Assume that there will be no new source subject to the requirements of this regulation.  Similar new sources will be subject to NSPS Subpart Kb.  There are 10 existing sources with an average of 50 tanks per facility.
[b]  This ICR uses the following labor rates:  $66.62 for managerial, $49.44 for technical,  and $26.75 for clerical labor.   These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2019 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]  One-time only activity required at start of construction.  Any new storage vessel being constructed would be subject to NSPS Subpart Kb.
[d]  Estimate that 10 percent of respondents (1) will use a vapor recovery control system and 90 percent of respondents (9) will use a floating roof system.  Respondents using vapor recovery control are not required to do seal gap measurements.  All tanks using floating roof system (9) will perform a secondary seal gap measurement.  Twenty percent of respondents (2) will conduct a primary seal gap measurement.  Total respondents submitting a notification of either primary or secondary gap measurement: 9 + 2 = 11.
[e]  Assume that 3 percent of respondents submitting a notification of either primary or secondary gap measurement (11) will have excessive seal gaps (primary or secondary) requiring that a single report be filed once every three years. (11 x 0.03 = 0.33)
f  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  We estimate an average of 413 existing respondents with an average of 4,667 regulated vessels in service will be subject over the next three years.  We also estimate 75 percent (3,500) of vessels have an internal floating roof (IFR), 20 percent (933) have an external floating roof (EFR), and 5 percent (233) have a closed vent system (CVS). We estimate 19 new respondents per year will become subject to subpart Kb, and assume a distribution similar to that of existing respondents; therefore, 14 new respondents have an IFR, 4 have an ERF, and 1 has a CVS. These estimates do not include sources subject to both subpart Kb and the HON, which we assume will comply with the HON instead. 
[b]  This ICR uses the following labor rates:  $66.62 for managerial, $49.44 for technical,  and $26.75 for clerical labor.   These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2019 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]  We estimate that 80% of existing and new respondents ((413+19) x 0.8 = 346) will choose visual inspections. We estimate 10 percent failure rate for the 346 respondents choosing annual visual inspections, yielding 35 reports. (346 x 0.1 = 35 (rounded)).
[d]  Estimate 10 percent of failed IFRs either are delayed in repair or are emptied, yielding 3.5 notifications per year.
e  Assume all 3,500 existing IFR tanks will be serviced routinely through a shutdown, and degassed once every ten years.  One tenth of these tanks will be degassed each year, for an annual average of 350 per year.  This number was added to the estimated 35 visual inspection failures that would lead to internal inspections, for a total estimate of 385 notifications of refill.
[f]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  Assume there will be an average of 5 new, modified, or reconstructed facilities each year and an average of 65 existing facilities over the next 3 years. Since Subpart VVa is more stringent than the HON and MON, no sources are assumed to be complying with the HON or MON instead of Subpart VVa.
[b]  This ICR uses the following labor rates:  $66.62 for managerial, $49.44 for technical,  and $26.75 for clerical labor.   These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2019 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]  Estimate 3 new sources will be new due to construction while 2 new sources will be new due to reconstruction or modification. 
[d]  Assume 20 percent of initial performance tests must be repeated due to failure.
[e]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

[a]  Assume 1 new affected source per year and an average of 38 existing affected sources over the next three years.  This does not include sources subject to both subpart III and the HON, which are assumed to be complying with the HON.
[b]  This ICR uses the following labor rates:  $66.62 for managerial, $49.44 for technical,  and $26.75 for clerical labor.   These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2019 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]  Assume 20 percent of initial performance tests must be repeated due to failure.
[d]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  We estimate an average of 54 existing facilities will be subject to the standard, and that no new sources will become subject over the next three years.  We estimate 3 tank truck/railcars and 131 marine vessels are subject to the standards.  We assume 50 percent of marine vessels (66) operate at negative pressure and do not conduct annual vapor-tightness tests.  We also assume all other transfer racks subject to Subpart BB are complying with the HON.
[b]  This ICR uses the following labor rates:  $66.62 for managerial, $49.44 for technical,  and $26.75 for clerical labor.   These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2019 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]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  Estimate there will be 4 existing sources not covered by the HON.  The burden for all new sources is included in the NSPS Subpart Kb regulation for storage vessels at 40 CFR Part 60.
[b]  This ICR uses the following labor rates:  $66.62 for managerial, $49.44 for technical,  and $26.75 for clerical labor.   These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2019 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]  We believe that all vessels have been degassed and that all controls have been installed, as they were to be installed within 10 years of promulgation.
[d]  Estimate two percent of existing sources will request delay of repair in the annual report.
e  Assume no sources will select the option to have a fixed roof vented to a control device, and thus have no quarterly reports of excess emissions.
[f]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  Assume that there will be no new source subject to the requirements of this regulation.  Similar new sources will be subject to NSPS Subpart Kb.  There are 10 existing sources with an average of 50 tanks per facility.
b  This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical,  and $58.67 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, "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 ICR assumes all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.
[d]  Estimate that 10 percent of respondents (1) will use a vapor recovery control system and 90 percent (9) will use a floating roof system.  Respondents using vapor recovery control are not required to do seal gap measurements.  All tanks using floating roof system (9) will perform a secondary seal gap measurement.  Twenty percent (2) will conduct a primary seal gap measurement.  Total respondents submitting a notification of either primary or secondary gap measurement: 9 + 2 = 11.
e  Assume that 3 percent of respondents submitting a notification of either primary or secondary gap measurement (11) will have excessive seal gaps (primary or secondary) requiring that a report be filed once every three years.
[f]  Estimate five hours to conduct secondary seal gap measurements annually for the average 50 tanks per respondent.
g  Estimate two hours to conduct primary seal measurements every five years for the average 50 tanks per respondent (10 tanks per respondent per year).
[h]  During any one year, a respondent would change liquid at approximately 20 percent of all facilities (35).
[i]  Estimate 0.2 hours per tank to record a liquid change at 20 percent of the average of 50 tanks per facility (10).
[j]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

a  We estimate an average of 413 existing respondents with an average of 4,667 regulated vessels in service will be subject over the next three years.  We also estimate 75 percent (3,500) of vessels have an internal floating roof (IFR), 20 percent (933) have an external floating roof (EFR), and 5 percent (233) have a closed vent system (CVS). We estimate 19 new respondents per year will become subject to subpart Kb, and assume a distribution similar to that of existing respondents; therefore, 14 new respondents have an IFR, 4 have an ERF, and 1 has a CVS. These estimates do not include sources subject to both subpart Kb and the HON, which we assume will comply with the HON instead. 
b  This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical,  and $58.67 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, "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 ICR assumes all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.
[d]  The General Provision notifications of modification or malfunction will be covered by other notifications within the subpart.
[e]  For each of the 3,500 IFRs associated with the 413 existing respondents, we estimate that 80 percent (413 x 0.8 = 330) will conduct an annual visual inspection, while 20 percent (413 x 0.2 = 83) will conduct an internal inspection.  These activities are required to generate the information for the IFR failure report and EFR primary and secondary seal gap reports, but do not require response.
[f]  We estimate that 80% of existing and new respondents ((413+19) x 0.8 = 346) will choose visual inspections. We estimate 10 percent failure rate for the 346 respondents choosing annual visual inspections, yielding 35 reports. (346 x 0.1 = 35 (rounded)).
[g]  Estimate 10 percent of the 35 failed IFRs either are delayed in repair or are emptied, yielding 3.5 notifications per year.
[h]  Assume all 3,500 existing IFR tanks will be serviced routinely through a shutdown, and degassed once every ten years.  One tenth of these tanks will be degassed each year, for an annual average of 350 per year.  This number was added to the estimated 35 visual inspection failures that would lead to internal inspections, for a total estimate of 385 notifications of refill.
[i]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  All new sources are subject to Subpart VVa.  There is an average of 170 existing sources per year that will be subject to subpart VV over the next three years.  These estimates do not include sources subject to both subpart VV and the HON, which we assume comply with the HON instead.
b  This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical,  and $58.67 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, "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 ICR assumes all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.
[d]  Assume 20 percent of performance tests must be repeated.
[e]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  Assume there will be an average of 5 new, modified, or reconstructed facilities each year and an average of 65 existing facilities over the next 3 years. Since Subpart VVa is more stringent than the HON and MON, no sources are assumed to be complying with the HON or MON instead of Subpart VVa.
b  This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical,  and $58.67 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, "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 ICR assumes all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.
[d]  Assume 20 percent of initial performance tests must be repeated due to failure.
[e]  Estimate 3 new sources will be new due to construction while 2 new sources will be new due to reconstruction or modification.  
[f]  Assume 10 percent are small facilities that will record instrument readings manually while the other 90 percent use automated equipment to capture instrument readings electronically.
[g]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  Assume 5 new affected sources per year and an average of 73 existing affected sources over the next three years.
b  This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical,  and $58.67 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, "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 ICR assumes all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.
[d]  Assume 20 percent of initial performance tests must be repeated due to failure.
[e]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  Assume 1 new affected source per year and an average of 38 existing affected sources over the next three years.  This does not include sources subject to both Subpart III and the HON, which are assumed to be complying with the HON.
b  This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical,  and $58.67 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, "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 ICR assumes all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.
[d]  Assume 20 percent of initial performance tests must be repeated due to failure.
[e]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  Assume 9 new affected sources per year subject to subpart NNN and not the HON, and 118 existing affected sources over the next three years.  These estimates do not include sources subject to both Subpart NNN and the HON, which are assumed to be complying with the HON.
b  This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical,  and $58.67 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, "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 ICR assumes all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.
[d]  Assume 20 percent of initial performance tests must be repeated due to failure.
[e]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  Assume 5 new affected sources per year subject to subpart RRR and not the HON, and 64 existing affected sources over the next three years.  These estimates do not include sources subject to both Subpart RRR and the HON, which are assumed to be complying with the HON.
b  This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical,  and $58.67 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, "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 ICR assumes all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.
[d]  Assume 20 percent of initial performance tests must be repeated due to failure.
[e]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  We estimate an average of 54 existing facilities will be subject to the standard, and that no new sources will become subject over the next three years.  We estimate 3 tank truck/railcars and 131 marine vessels are subject to the standards.  We assume 50 percent of marine vessels (66) operate at negative pressure and do not conduct annual vapor-tightness tests.  We also assume all other transfer racks subject to subpart BB are complying with the HON.
b  This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical,  and $58.67 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, "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 ICR assumes all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.
d  For sources below the low quantity applicability for control requirements, a report is only required the first year of operation.  We assume existing sources previously have submitted this report.
[e]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  Estimate there will be 4 existing sources not covered by the HON.  The burden for all new sources is included in the NSPS subpart Kb regulation for storage vessels at 40 CFR Part 60.
b  This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical,  and $58.67 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, "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 ICR assumes all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.
[d]  We believe that all vessels have been degassed and that all controls have been installed, as they were to be installed within 10 years of promulgation.
[e]  Estimate two percent of existing sources will request delay of repair in the annual report.
f  Assume no sources will select the option to have a fixed roof vented to a control device, and thus have no quarterly reports of excess emissions.
[g]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  Assume 0 new sources per year and 67 existing sources subject to subpart V, but not the HON.
b  This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical,  and $58.67 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, "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 ICR assumes all existing respondents will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.
[d]  Assume 20 percent of initial performance tests must be repeated due to failure.
e  Assume 3% of sources experience a startup, shutdown, or malfunction per year. 
[f]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  Average hours per activity are back-calculated by dividing (C) by (B).

[b]  The number of new respondents (5) is from a previously approved ICR. 

[c]  This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical,  and $58.67 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, "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.
d  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions:

[a]  Average Hours per Activity (A) is back-calculated:  (A) = ((C) + (D))/(B).
[b]  There are 135 existing sources out of the 180 total that will continue to comply with the HON.
[c]  The 45 facilities complying with the CAR will still be required to comply with HON requirements for wastewater.
d  This ICR uses the following labor rates for privately-owned sources: $141.06 for managerial, $120.27 for technical,  and $58.67 for clerical labor.  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, June 2019, "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.
[e]  Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions and Item Descriptions for Attachment F:  Table F-12

Assumptions:

     (A) That all existing and new sources must submit an initial report within 120 days of promulgation and an implementation plan or permit application within 12 or 18 months of the compliance date.  It is assumed that initial reports and implementation plans have been submitted for existing sources and these reports are only required for new sources.  The new sources are most likely to be collocated within existing plants and be included in those existing source reports.
    
    (B) That semiannual reports of results from equipment leak detection and repair programs are required by the equipment leak standard.  Sources are required to comply with the equipment leak standard by 6 months after promulgation.  It is assumed that an average of 135 facilities will submit reports semiannually (135 existing facilities x 2 reports/facility = 270) (even those that use the CAR will still have to submit reports under the HON for wastewater).
      
Item Descriptions:

    (a) Average hours per activity are estimates of the specific activities and are the basis for estimating the overall burden.

    (b) Number of activities per year represents the number of reports expected to be reviewed and other related activities during the course of the year.  Under the performance test headings, these numbers are based upon assumptions (A) and (B), above.  For one-time reports, the total number of reports expected over the three-year period was divided by three to get an annual average incorporating assumption (B), above.
      
    (c) Estimated technical hours per year is the product of (a) and (b).
    
    (d) Estimated managerial hours per year is 5 percent of (c).
    
    (e) Estimated clerical hours per year is 10 percent of (c).
    
    (f) Annual cost per year is the sum of costs for technical, managerial, and clerical hours based on rates from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2017 General Schedule, which excludes locality rates of pay.
    
		Managerial	$66.62 (GS-13, Step 5, $41.64 + 60%)
		Technical	$49.44 (GS-12, Step 1, $30.90 + 60%)
      Clerical	$26.75 (GS-6, Step 3, $16.72 + 60%)
            
      (Ht x $49.44/hour) + (Hm x $66.62/hour) + (Hc x $26.75/hour) = (G)
                                       
            Where:
                  Ht is (c), or technical hours
                  Hm is (d), or managerial hours, and
                  Hc is (e), clerical hours

Report Review:

    1) Initial represents the EPA review of all initial reports received.
    
    2) Implementation plan or permit represents the EPA review of all implementation plans, or permit applications if submitted in lieu of an implementation plan.
    
    3) Compliance status represents compliance status verification by the EPA for the portions of the standard which a source must comply with before the compliance date (see assumption (A), above).
    
    4) Review equipment leak monitoring represents the review and screening of periodic reports received as a result of the equipment leaks standard.
    
    5) Notification of construction/reconstruction represents the EPA review of this notification from new sources.
    
    6) Notification of anticipated startup represents the EPA review of this notification from new sources.
    
    7) Notification of actual startup represents the EPA review of this notification from new sources.
    
    8) Notification of performance test represents the EPA review of this notification from new sources.
    
    9) Review of test results represents the EPA review of performance test results for new sources.
    
10) Review periodic reports represents the EPA review of periodic reports.

TOTAL ANNUAL BURDEN AND COST (ROUNDED) is the sum of columns (c), (d), and (e), and of (f), respectively. Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Assumptions and Item Descriptions for Attachment G:  Tables G-12 and G-13

Assumptions:

    (A) That there are 135 existing facilities out of 180 that will continue to comply with the HON, rather than the CAR. The 45 facilities complying with the CAR will still be required to comply with the HON wastewater provisions, as the CAR does not include wastewater provisions.  The total number of facilities will increase by 5 new facilities per year.  Since new facilities must be in compliance at startup, the general periodic recordkeeping and reporting burdens are included, which accounts for the difference in the technical hours per facility.  No new facilities are expected to comply directly with the CAR.
    
    (B) That the average representative source, new and existing, will consist of the following points of burden:
    
            20 parameters to monitor at control devices throughout the facility
            10 affected storage tanks of various capacities
            3 affected major wastewater streams
            4 affected transfer rack operations
            3 overall leak detection and repair programs for 2,000 points
            1 emissions averaging program that involves 10 emission points
            1 facility wide inventory of emission points, Group 1 and Group 2
            8 process vents per facility
            
    (C) That there are 5 percent (0.05) managerial and 10 percent (0.10) clerical hours required for every technical hour.
    
    (D) That some activities necessary to generate reports involve creating records in the process, and that these activities are assumed to be reports activities alone, to avoid double counting these as records activities as well.  Therefore, only items 8 and 9 are considered records burdens directly.

Item Descriptions:

    (a) Average hours per activity is back-calculated by dividing (b) into (c).  Since the activities within each burden category can vary significantly, it is too inaccurate to assume an average to use to calculate (c).  Estimated activity technical hours are summarized to obtain (c) first, then back calculate for (a) with an estimated (b).
    
    (b) Number of activities per year per respondent represents the assumed typical number of separate activities a respondent may encounter during one year.  This number may vary from facility to facility, depending on consolidation of activities, collocated readings, etc.  Since so much variability exists, it is important to note that this is an estimate.  This number only was used to back-calculate (a).
    
    (c) Technical hours per year per respondent is the actual best estimate of the burden for each burden item.  The three-year separate activity burdens were divided by three, where appropriate, and then summarized to include in this column.  The technical hours for new respondents are higher because some periodic compliance reports and records are required at startup.  Existing respondents do not encounter these reporting and recordkeeping burdens for three years after promulgation.
                                         
    (d) Table G-12 Estimated number of new respondents reflects the number given in assumption (A), above.  Table G-13 Technical hours per year per respondent for wastewater are the annual technical hours associated with recordkeeping and reporting to ensure compliance with requirements for wastewater.  As discussed in assumption (A), facilities complying with the CAR will comply with HON wastewater requirements.  Burden hours per source, per emission type are shown in Table 5.
    
    (e) Estimated technical hours per year is the product of (c) and (d) for new facilities (Table G-12).  For Table G-13, estimated technical hours are the product of (c) and the number of existing facilities complying with all of the HON (135) added to the product of (d) and the number of facilities complying with only the wastewater provisions (45).
    
    (f) Estimated managerial hours per year is 5 percent of (e).
    
    (g) Estimated clerical hours per year is 10 percent of (e).
    
    (h) Annual cost per year is from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, September 2019, 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.

Report Review:

    1) Familiarize with regulatory requirements are the activities, less training, which involve comprehending the provisions in the standard and understanding how they apply to the respective points at a facility. We assume existing facilities will have to familiarize with the regulatory requirements each year.
    
    2) Plan activities represent such burdens as design, redesign, scheduling as well as drafting the implementation plan, and selecting methods of compliance.
    
    3) Training represents the portion (assumed 40 percent) of activities from 1) Familiarize with regulatory requirements for which an average facility would elect to provide class room instruction.  The standard does not require specific training itself.
    
    4) Creation, testing, research, and development are the activities involving testing, retesting, establishing operating range for parameters and analyzing point-by-point applicability.  Monitor related refit, calibration, and maintenance activities are also included under this heading.
    
    5) Gather information, monitor/inspect are the activities involving physical inspections of equipment, collection of monitored data, and other related activities.
    
    6) Process/compile and review are the activities that involve analysis of the information collected for accuracy, compliance, and appropriate reports and records required as a result.
    
    7) Complete reports represents the activities normally associated with filling out forms.  Since the standard requires no standard forms, these activities relate to the preparing of formal reports and cover letters as appropriate.
    
    8) Record/disclose are activities which are solely recordkeeping which occur once the appropriate report information has been extracted [see assumption (D), above].  These activities involve software translation, duplication, or archival processes normally associated with data management and storage common to this industry.
    
    9) Store/file again are activities which are solely recordkeeping which occur once the appropriate report information has been extracted [see assumption (D), above].  These activities involve the management life cycle of records, from the time they are filed and boxed up, to the time they are disposed.

TOTAL ANNUAL BURDEN AND COST (ROUNDED) is the sum of columns (e), (f), and (g), and of (h), respectively. Totals have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

Summary of Capital/Startup and Operation & Maintenance Costs for the CAR and Its Referencing Subparts

Note: Totals for capital and O&M costs have been rounded to 3 significant figures. Figures may not add exactly due to rounding.

NSPS Subpart Ka
      
      a.	Total Capital/Startup Cost of Monitoring Equipment:
            The total capital/Startup costs for this ICR are $0.
      
      b.	Total Cost of Operation and Maintenance of Monitoring Equipment:
            The total operating and maintenance (O&M) Costs for this ICR is $0.
      
      c.	Total Capital/Startup and O&M Cost:
            The total capital and O&M Costs are $0.

NSPS Subpart Kb
      
      a.	Total Capital/Startup Cost of Monitoring Equipment:
            The total capital/Startup costs includes the cost for 1 new storage tank to install monitoring equipment associated with the CVS routed to a control device.  The storage tank will use equipment similar to that used for Subparts NNN and III; therefore, the startup cost is approximately $13,500 per facility.  There are no capital/startup costs for the remaining 18 new storage tanks complying by either an IFR or EFR.  
      
      b. 	Total Cost of Operation and Maintenance of Monitoring Equipment:
            The average annualized O&M burden is estimated to be $1,350 per year per affected facility ($13,500 discounted over 10 years by straight line depreciation method) for sources using CVS routed to a control device. The annual operation and maintenance costs are $316,366. This is based on an average of 233 existing sources plus 1 new source (234 total) per year over the life of the ICR ($1,350 x 234).  
      
      c.	Total Capital/Startup and O&M Cost:
            The total capital and O&M Costs are $330,000. 

NSPS Subpart VV
      
      a.	Total Capital/Startup Cost of Monitoring Equipment:
            The capital/startup costs of this regulation are $0.  We assume facilities that are already complying with Subpart VV will not need to buy an additional monitor and that no additional facilities will become subject to Subpart VV in the future.

      b.	Total Cost of Operation and Maintenance of Monitoring Equipment:
            Operation of monitors is included in monitoring costs.  Maintenance costs for these units are incidental; therefore, no maintenance or operation costs will be incurred.
      
      c.	Total Capital/Startup and O&M Cost:
            The total capital and O&M Costs are $0.

NSPS Subpart VVa
      
      a.	Total Capital/Startup Cost of Monitoring Equipment:
            The capital/startup costs of this regulation total $1,400.  This is based on the average cost of a monitor ($7,000) with a 5-year expected life.  The equipment is not capitalized, so no discount rate applies.  The average annual cost is, therefore, $7,000/5, or $1,400/yr.  It is estimated that only area sources that construct new process units might purchase a monitoring instrument.  All other sources should have monitoring equipment because they are either subject to MACT rules or have been subject to NSPS Subpart VV for other processes.  We assume 5 process units are subject to NSPS Subpart VVa each year, where 60 percent of all new sources are newly constructed sources and 15 percent of all new sources are area sources.  Therefore, an estimated 1 facility with a new process unit will buy a monitoring instrument to comply with NSPS Subpart VVa, yielding a total capital/startup cost of $1,400 x 1, or $1,400.
      
      b.	Total Cost of Operation and Maintenance of Monitoring Equipment:
            The operation of the monitors is included in the monitoring costs.  Maintenance costs on these units is incidental; therefore, no maintenance or operation costs incur.
      
      c.	Total Capital/Startup and O&M Cost:
            The total capital and O&M Costs are $1,400.

NSPS Subpart DDD
      
      a. 	Total Capital/Startup Cost of Monitoring Equipment:
            The capital/startup costs for this regulation are $150,000.  This is based on 5 new sources per year multiplied by $30,000 per source for monitoring equipment. 
      
      b.	Total Cost of Operation and Maintenance of Monitoring Equipment:
            The annual operation and maintenance costs are $546,000.  This is based on an average of 73 existing sources plus 5 new sources (78 total) per year over the life of the ICR multiplied by $7,000 for upkeep of the monitoring devices.

      c.	Total Capital/Startup and O&M Cost:

NESHAP HON:

Subpart G
      
      a.	Total Capital/Startup Cost of Monitoring Equipment:
            Estimate the cost to purchase monitoring equipment is approximately $20-30K for process vents and wastewater operations, or an average of $25,000 with a 10-year life expectancy and a 7 percent depreciation rate, or $2,225 per year.  There are no associated costs for transfer racks and storage tanks.  Only new sources need to buy monitoring equipment; therefore, the total capital/startup cost is $25,000 x 2, or $50,000.
      
      b.	Total Cost of Operation and Maintenance of Monitoring Equipment:
            The cost to industry associated with the operation and maintenance (O&M) is approximately $100-500K per year (capital/startup depreciation not included) for reactor process vents and wastewater operations.  The cost associated with the operation and maintenance is $50-100K per year (capital/startup depreciation not included) for distillation unit process vents.  There are no associated costs for transfer racks and storage tanks.  The average O&M cost is assumed to be the average of the two ranges, or $275,000 per year.  Operation and maintenance incur for both the 2 new and 180 existing sources. The total O&M is, therefore, $275,000 x 182, or $50,050,000.

      c.	Total Capital/Startup and O&M Cost:
            The total capital and O&M costs are $50,100,000.

Subpart H
      
      a.	Total Capital/Startup Cost of Monitoring Equipment:
            Only new sources will buy an organic volatile analyzer. Estimate the average cost of a monitor is $7,000 with a 5-year expected life. The equipment is not capitalized, so no discount rate applies.  The average annual cost is, therefore, $7,000/5, or $1,400/yr.  Estimate that 80 percent of new facilities contract out LDAR services, and 20 percent perform in-house.  Those facilities which contract out (2 facilities) will purchase one unit as backup; the remaining facilities performing LDAR in-house (1 facility) will purchase 5 units to support the program.  The total annual capital/startup cost is, therefore, 7 units x $1,400/unit, or $9,800/yr.
      
      b.	Total Cost of Operation and Maintenance of Monitoring Equipment:
            The costs of upkeep and annual calibration of the analyzers are included in the contracted purchase price. 
      
      c.	Total Capital and O&M Cost for Subparts H:
            The total capital and O&M costs are $9,800.

Part 65 CAR
      
      a.	Total Capital/Startup Cost of Monitoring Equipment:
            Under the CAR, it is assumed all new sources start out under the referencing subpart.  Therefore, there is no capital/startup cost associated with this subpart.
      
      b.	Total Cost of Operation and Maintenance of Monitoring Equipment:
            The HON is the basis for determining O&M costs for the CAR.  The average cost per source, based on the HON, is $275,000 per year. There are 45 sources complying with the CAR. The annual operation and maintenance costs are $12,375,000 (45 x $275,000). 
      
      c.	Total Capital/Startup and O&M Cost:
            The total capital and O&M costs are $12,400,000.
