ASSUMPTIONS:

a
Labor
rates
and
associated
costs
are
based
on
the
United
States
Department
of
Commerce
Bureau
of
Labor
Statistics,
March
1999,
Table
10:
Employment
Costs
for
Private
Industry
by
Occupational
and
Industry
Group
estimated
hourly
rates
as
follows:
Executive,
Administrative,
and
Managerial
labor
is
$
73.93($
35.20
+
110%);
Technical
labor
is
$
54.94
($
26.16
+
110%);
and
Clerical
labor
is
$
34.42.
This
rates
were
multiplied
by
the
hours
per
year
in
Columns
E,
F,
or
G,
which
ever
applies,
and
H
is
the
sum
of
all
three
values.

b
There
are
a
total
of
68
coke
oven
batteries
at
25
existing
plants
(
23
by­
product
and
2
nonrecovery
plants)
currently
in
operation
in

United
States.
Therefore,
we
have
assumed
that
there
is
an
average
of
3
coke
oven
batteries
per
plant.

c
Daily
performance
tests
will
be
conducted
by
a
certified
observer
provided
by
the
State
enforcement
agency
will
be
performed
for
each
emission
point
on
each
battery.
Respondents
will
reimburse
states
through
permit
fees.
Assuming
an
average
of
3
coke
ovens
batteries
per
plant
will
be
inspected,
the
total
person
hours
for
inspections
is
estimated
at
8.25
based
on
the
cost
formula
for
calculating
reimbursement
costs
included
in
the
rule.
Therefore,
a
total
of
219
monitoring
hours
per
day
(
nationwide)
are
estimated.

d
For
by­
product
coke
batteries,
indirect
costs
to
respondents
would
include
the
cost
of
certification
for
the
observer
provided
by
the
state
enforcement
agency
or
its
contractor.
The
cost
of
the
3­
day
EPA
certification
course
($
200
per
person
per
plant
which
total
$
5,000)
is
included
in
addition
to
the
burden
hours
associated
with
attending
the
course.
The
cost
of
implementing
the
certification
course.
The
cost
associated
with
implementing
the
course
is
included
in
the
Agency
burden
estimates
given
on
Table
2.

e
According
to
a
recent
data
gathered
by
OAQPS,
none
of
the
5
byproduct
recovery
plants
with
sheds
have
applied
for
the
alternative
standard.
The
alternative
standard
does
not
apply
to
the
2
nonrecovery
plants
with
sheds.
Therefore,
none
of
the
existing
plants
have
continuos
emissions
monitoring
(
CMS)
for
opacity
since
it
is
only
required
if
the
alternative
standard
is
chosen.

f
The
owner
or
operator
of
an
existing
non­
recovery
plant
would
be
required
to
do
daily
oven
pressure
monitoring
rather
than
conduct
performance
tests.

g
The
owner
or
operator
of
an
existing
non­
recovery
battery
would
be
required
to
implement
specified
work
practices
for
the
control
of
emissions
from
charging
operations
and
document
the
performance
of
each
procedure.

h
Assume
all
of
the
by­
product
recovery
plants
have
installed
a
bypass/
bleeder
stake
flare
system.

i
Assume
that
of
the
23
by­
product
plants,
a
total
of
10
percent
(
2.5)
would
be
required
to
implement
the
work

procedures.

battery
with
two
independent
exceedances
of
an
applicable

limitation
for

within

would

in
the

plan

1

is
expected
to
permanently

required
notification
over
the
next
three
years.

k
All
by­
product
recovery,
a
brownfield
or
padup
rebuild
coke
oven
battery
are
expected
to
have
installed
flares.

l
Assume
2
of
the
the
25
existing
plants
may
experience
a
malfunction
requiring
notification
to
inform
the
Agency
and
a
written
report.

Assumes
1
plant
will
submit
an
initial
compliance
certifications
over
the
next
three
years,
all
other
plants
already
submitted
initial
compliance
certifications.

n
Ten
percent
of

23
by­
product
plants
are
expected
to
experience
a
venting
episode
where
emissions
are
released
through
bypass/
bleeder
stacks
without
flaring
requiring
notification
and
a
written
report.

o
The
initial
and
refresher
training
is
to
be
conducted
according
to
the
training
component
in

work

plan.
