(
a)
Costs
are
based
on
the
following
hourly
rates:
technical
at
$
51.59,
management
at
$
82.93,
and
clerical
at
$
35.30.
Management
person­
hours
and
clerical
person­
hours
are
assumed
to
be
5
percent
and
10
percent
of
technical
person­
hours,
respectively.

(
b)
There
are
estimated
to
be
eight
existing
major
source
plants
for
an
average
of
8/
3=
2.7
plants
per
year
during
the
3­
year
ICR
clearance
period.
There
is
expected
to
be
one
new
small
tunnel
kiln
affected
by
the
rule
constructed
at
an
existing
plant
during
the
3­
year
ICR
clearance
period,
for
an
average
of
1/
3=
0.33
plants
per
year.
Existing
kilns
need
only
to
keep
records
of
fuel
type
used,

while
new
tunnel
kilns
must
meet
emission
limits
acheivable
with
a
DLA
and
keep
records
of
fuel
used.

(
c)
Notifications
occur
one
time
only.
It
is
technically
incorrect
to
treat
these
notifications
as
annual
occurrences.
However,
the
burden
estimates
in
the
table
reflect
only
the
one­
time
burden
because
the
burden
is
applied
to
the
average
number
of
respondents
per
year.

(
d)
Assumes
15%
of
respondents
with
new
kilns
report
deviations
once
a
year.

(
e)
Assumes
85%
of
respondents
with
new
kilns
report
no
deviations
semiannually.
Assumes
no
deviations
from
the
fuel­
type
work
practice
standard
for
existing
kilns.

(
f)
Assumes
10%
of
respondents
with
new
kilns
will
have
a
startup,
shutdown,
or
malfunction
occur
in
a
year
that
is
not
managed
according
to
the
plan.

(
g)
Assumes
10%
of
facilities
will
use
an
alternative
fuel
once
per
year.

(
h)
Assumes
1.5
hours
per
affected
new
kiln.
Assumes
information
is
entered
1
time
per
week
for
52
weeks/
yr.

(
i)
Assumes
typical
plant
transmits
one­
time
notification
of
applicability
and
6
semi­
annual
reports
over
the
3­
year
period,
for
a
total
of
7
items
or
an
average
of
2.3
items
per
year.

(
j)
The
total
annual
number
of
responses
is
calculated
by
summing
the
product
of
columns
B
and
D
for
each
of
the
reports
listed
in
4E.

(
k)
Assumes
emission
test
to
be
conducted
on
1
kiln/
3
years
=
0.33
kilns
per
year
using
EPA
Method
5

PM
and
EPA
Method

at
a
total
cost
of
$
16,500.

(
l)
Assumes
10%
of
plants
with
new
kilns
will
fail
an
initial
performance
test
and
must
repeat
it.

(
m)
Capital
costs
associated
with
monitoring
new
kilns
are
estimated
at
$
1,320
(
0.33
plants/
yr
x
$
4,000
=
$
1,320)
based
on
visible

training
of
two
people
($
2,000
each)
every
5
years.

(
n)
Assumes
one
standard
four­
drawer
file
cabinet
per
facility
at
a
cost
of
$
235
per
cabinet.

(
o)
Annualized
costs
are
calculated
by
multiplying
the
capital
recovery
factor
(
CRF)
by
the
capital
cost.
CRF=(
i)*(
1+
i)^
t/((

costs

The
monitoring
equipment
needed
to
monitor
new
kiln
parameters
other
than
visible
emissions
(
e.
g.,
limestone
or
lime
feed
rate)
is
included
as
part
of
the
control
system
and
therefore
adds
no
additional
capital
or
O&
M
cost.
There
is
no
O&
M
cost
associated
with
visible
emissions
monitoring
other
than
the
training
costs
included
in
the
annualized
capital
costs
above.
