a)
Assume
approximately
21
plants
(
respondents)
will
become
subject
over
a
3­
year
period.
Assume
consistent
progression
of
NSPS
coverage,
so
that
the
number
of
new
sources
per
year
equal
21/
3=
7.

b)
Assume
an
hourly
wage
of
$
23.80.
This
amount
was
multiplied
by
the
hour
per
year
in
column
E.

c)
Assume
20%
of
initial
performance
tests
must
be
repeated
due
to
failure.

d)
Assume
operation
365
days
per
year
as
specified
in
the
NSPS
review
document.

e)
The
number
of
affected
facilities
includes
the
number
of
sources
currently
subject
to
the
standard
(
113)
plus
the
average
of
the
total
number
of
facilities
to
be
constructed/
reconstructed

the
next
three
years
(
50%
