NESHAP for Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaning Facilities (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart M) (Renewal)

1.  Identification of the Information Collection

      1(a)  Title of the Information Collection

NESHAP for Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaning Facilities (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart M)  (Renewal), EPA ICR Number 1415.10, OMB Control Number 2060-0234.

      1(b)  Short Characterization/Abstract

      The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP)                    for Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaning Facilities were proposed on December 9, 1991,  promulgated on September 22, 1993, and was last amended on July 11, 2008.  EPA has  reviewed the standards under sections 112(d) (6) and 112(f) of the Clean Air Act and,     effective July 27, 2006, established additional monitoring requirements beyond those promulgated on September 22, 1993.  The additional requirements are to implement an  enhanced leak detection and repair (LDAR) program under which monthly leak detection     using handheld instruments is performed.  These standards apply to existing and new dry cleaning facilities that use perchloroethylene (PCE).  New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal.  This information is     being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart M.

      In general, all NESHAP 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 NESHAP.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Any owner/operator subject to the provisions of this part shall maintain a file of these measurements, and retain the file for at least five years following the date of such measurements, maintenance reports, and records.  All reports are sent to the delegated state or local authority.   In the event that there is no such delegated authority, the reports are sent directly to the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regional office.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        Based on our consultations with industry representatives, there is average of one affected facility at each plant site and that each plant site has only one respondent (i.e., the owner/operator of the plant site).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Approximately 28,012 sources are currently subject to the standards, of which 12 are major sources and the remainder are area sources.  Of the 28,000 area sources, 8,000 are located  in states (California, Maine, New York, Rhode Island) that already require an enhanced LDAR program; therefore, the NESHAP will affect 20,000 existing area sources.  No new major sources are expected over the next three years.  We estimate that 2,330 additional area sources per year will become subject to the regulation in the next three years, but that the overall number of facilities will remain constant due to the retirement of old existing facilities.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The active (previous) ICR had the following Terms of Clearance (TOC):
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            When this ICR is renewed, EPA should review the respondent burden,
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            universe, labor rates, and capital costs and ensure these estimates have
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            been updated.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      EPA has addressed each item of concern in the TOC by reviewing the aforementioned items and updating the estimates accordingly.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
	The burden to the "Affected Public" may be found below in Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost  -  NESHAP for Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaning Facilities (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart M) (Renewal).  The Federal Government "burden" is attributed entirely to work performed by federal employees or government contractors and refer to Table 2 below: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost  -  NESHAP for Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaning Facilities (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart M) (Renewal). 

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

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The EPA is 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, perchloroethylene emissions from dry cleaning facilities cause or contribute to air pollution that may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health or welfare.  Therefore, the NESHAP were promulgated for this source category at 40 CFR part 63, subpart M.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      2(b)  Practical Utility/Users of the Data
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The recordkeeping and reporting requirements in the standards ensure compliance with the applicable regulations which where 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 standard.  Emission monitors are used to ensure compliance with the standard at all times.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The notifications required in the standard are used to inform the Agency or 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 and the standard 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 part 63,       subpart M.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      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 (77 FR 63813) on October 17, 2012.  No comments were received on the burden published in the Federal Register. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

      The Agency's industry experts have been consulted, and the Agency's internal data sources and projections of industry growth over the next three years have been considered.     The primary source of information as reported by industry, in compliance with the record-keeping and reporting provisions in the standard, is the OTIS which is operated and maintained by the EPA Office of Compliance. OTIS is the EPA database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of all compliance data.  
      
      Consultations with industry representatives (i.e., respondents) were conducted to determine if there is any way for EPA to reduce the recordkeeping and reporting burden or improve the language in the standard to make it easier to comply.  In developing this ICR,     EPA contacted: 1) the Halogenated Solvents Industry Alliance, Inc., at (703) 741-5780; and 2) the Drycleaning & Laundry Institute, at (301) 622-1900.
      
      It is our policy to respond after a thorough review of comments received since the last ICR renewal as well as those submitted in response to the first Federal Register notice. 
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      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 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
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      These reporting or recordkeeping requirements do not violate any of the regulations  promulgated by OMB under 5 CFR part 1320, section 1320.5.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      These standards require the respondents to maintain all records, including reports and notifications for at least five years.  This is consistent with the General Provisions as applied to the standards.  EPA believes that the five-year records retention requirement is consistent 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.  EPA has found that the most flagrant violators have violations extending beyond five years.  In addition, 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).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      3(g)  Sensitive Questions
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The reporting or recordkeeping requirements in the standard do not include sensitive questions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Also, regulatory agencies, in cooperation with the respondents, continue to create reporting systems to transmit data electronically.  However, electronic reporting systems are still not widely used.  At this time, it is estimated that approximately 20 percent of the respondents use electronic reporting.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (ii)  Respondent Activities	
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Respondent Activities
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Read instructions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Complete monthly LDAR using a handheld instrument.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adjust existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Modify the existing recordkeeping system for the purpose of recording results of monthly enhanced LDAR.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enter information required to be recorded above.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Install, calibrate, maintain, and operate control device and LDAR instruments.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Write the notifications and reports listed above.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enter information required to be recorded above.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Submit the required reports developing, acquiring, installing, and utilizing technology and systems for the purpose of collecting, validating, and verifying information.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of disclosing and providing information.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Adjust existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transmit, or otherwise disclose the information.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Currently sources are using monitoring and reporting equipment that provide parameter data in an automated way e.g., continuous parameter monitoring system.  Although personnel at the source still need to evaluate the data, this type of monitoring equipment has significantly reduced the burden associated with monitoring and recordkeeping.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      EPA conducts the following activities in connection with the acquisition, analysis, storage, and distribution of the required information.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Agency Activities

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Review notifications and reports, including performance test reports, and excess emissions reports, required to be submitted by industry.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Audit facility records.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Input, analyze, and maintain data in the Online Tracking Information System (OTIS). 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      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 standard, and 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.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Information contained in the reports is entered into OTIS which is operated and maintained by EPA's Office of Compliance.  OTIS is EPA's database for the collection, maintenance, and retrieval of compliance data for approximately 125,000 industrial and government-owned facilities.  EPA uses the OTIS for tracking air pollution compliance and enforcement by local and state regulatory agencies, EPA regional offices and EPA headquarters.  Both EPA and its delegated Authorities can edit, store, retrieve and analyze the data.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
       The records required by this regulation must be retained by the owner/operator for five years.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      5(c)  Small Entity Flexibility
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The majority of respondents are small entities (e.g., small businesses).  According to the Federal Register Notice for the 2006 final rule (71 FR 42742), "... over 99 percent of commercial dry cleaning firms are small."  When developing the 2006 revisions, EPA took special steps to ensure that the burden imposed on small entities was reasonable.  The EPA conducted several meetings with industry trade associations to discuss regulatory options and the corresponding recordkeeping and reporting.  In addition, for the 1993 promulgated standards, an in depth economic analysis (comparable to a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis) was conducted and documented in "Economic Impact of Regulatory Control in the Dry Cleaning Industry," (EPA 45/3 91 021).  Because of the large number of small businesses in this industry, the reporting requirements for the individual cleaning facilities are minimal.  There are no quarterly, semiannual, or annual reporting requirements as there are with most regulated large industries.  The burden is further minimized since costly monitoring equipment, such as a continuous monitor, is not required.  To complete monthly enhanced LDAR, area source dry cleaning facilities may use a halogenated leak detector, instead of a more costly PCE gas analyzer as required for major sources.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The specific frequency for each information collection activity within this request is shown in below Table 1: Annual Respondent Burden and Cost  -  NESHAP for Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaning Facilities (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart M) (Renewal).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Table 1 documents the computation of individual burdens for the recordkeeping and reporting requirements applicable to the industry for the subpart 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.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB Control Number.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      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 1,564,851 hours (Total Labor Hours from Table 1 below).  These hours are based on Agency studies and background documents from the development of the regulations, Agency knowledge and experience with the NESHAP program, 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	$121.44 ($57.83+ 110%)   
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Technical	$100.23 ($47.73 + 110%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            Clerical	$50.51 ($24.05 + 110%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics,     March 2012, "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 standard 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 the regulation.  The annual operation and maintenance costs are      the ongoing costs to maintain the monitors and other costs such as photocopying and postage. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
             (iii)  Capital/Startup vs. Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Costs
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Dry cleaning facilities must use a handheld instrument to conduct leak detection on a monthly basis.  Major sources must use a PCE gas analyzer (photo ionization detector (PID), flame ionization detector, or infrared analyzer) to perform leak checks according to Method 21 on a monthly basis, while area sources may use a halogenated hydrocarbon leak detector (HHD), which is less expensive than the gas analyzer required for major sources.  Capital/startup costs for new area sources include the purchase of the respective monitor.  There are 2,330 new area sources and no new major sources expected in the next three-year ICR period.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Annual O&M costs for the monitors apply to both new and existing sources because these costs are incurred each year.  For the 8,000 area source facilities that are in those states that already require an enhanced LDAR program, this ICR does not estimate capital and annual O&M costs for the monitors.  The annual costs for postage are applied to new sources and sources with exceedances that must submit reports.  All other existing sources must only keep records, and, as such, an annual photocopying charge is assessed for all those sources keeping records.  These costs are summarized in the table presented below.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      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 $247,566.  
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      This cost is based on the average hourly labor rate as follows:

		Managerial	$62.27 (GS-13, Step 5, $38.92 + 60%) 
		Technical	$46.21 (GS-12, Step 1, $28.88 + 60%)
		Clerical	$25.01 (GS-6, Step 3, $15.63 + 60%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
These rates are from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), 2012 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.  Details upon which this estimate is based appear below in Table 2: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost  -  NESHAP for Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaning Facilities (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart M) (Renewal).

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Based on our research for this ICR, approximately 28,012 existing respondents will be subject to the standards on average over the next three years.  It is estimated that an additional 2,330 area sources, as well as no major sources, will become subject per year.  The overall average number of respondents, as shown in the table below, is 28,012 per year.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The number of respondents is calculated using the following table that addresses the three years covered by this ICR.

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The total annual labor hours are 1,564,851 hours at a cost of $156,283,515.  Details regarding these estimates may be found below in Table 1:  Annual Respondent Burden and   Cost  -  NESHAP for Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaning Facilities (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart M) (Renewal).  
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Furthermore, the annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection    of information is estimated to average 51 hours per response.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                  
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
            (ii) The Agency Tally
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The average annual Agency burden and cost over next three years is estimated to be 5,494 labor hours at a cost of $247,566.  See Table 2 below: Average Annual EPA Burden and Cost  -  NESHAP for Perchloroethylene Dry Cleaning Facilities (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart M) (Renewal).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      There is an increase in burden costs from the most recently approved ICR for both the respondents and the Agency, and is due to an increase in labor rates.  This ICR uses updated labor rates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics to calculate respondent burden costs.  This ICR also uses updated labor rates from OPM to calculate EPA burden costs. 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      There is an increase in respondent labor hours due to revisions in the calculation of burden hours.  The previous ICR included technical and managerial labor hours only in its burden calculations.  To be consistent with the estimation methodology used in other ICRs,      we have revised the calculations to include clerical labor burden, and have assumed it to be equal to 10 percent of technical labor hours.  These revisions resulted in an increase in the respondent labor burden   and associated cost.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      There is an increase in the total O&M cost for respondents.  This increase is due to a mathematical error identified in the previous ICR and is not due to changes in individual O&M costs or the number of corresponding respondents.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
      The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 51 hours per response.  "Burden" means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information 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.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Assumptions:
[a.]  We have assumed that there are 28,000 existing area sources and that 2,330 sources will leave the industry and will be replaced by 2,330 new area sources over the next three years.  We have also assumed that there are 12 existing major sources and that no additional major sources will be subject to the NESHAP over the three-year period of this ICR.
[b.]  This ICR uses the following labor rates: Technical $100.23 ($47.73 + 110%); Managerial $121.44 ($57.83+ 110%); and Clerical $50.51 ($24.05 + 110%).  These rates are from the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, March 2012, "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.  This ICR assumes that Managerial hours are 5 percent of Technical hours, and Clerical hours are 10 percent of Technical hours.
[c.]  This task requires management hours only.
[d.]  This is based on the estimate that 1,631 (70 percent) of the 2,330 new facilities will be above the cutoff and thus required to perform this task.
[e].  This is based on the estimate that 699 (30 percent) of the 2,330 new facilities will be below the cutoff and thus required to perform this task.
[f.]  We estimate that 5 percent of new facilities each year will exceed the cutoff, thus requiring submission of the exceed-consumption cutoff report.
[g.]  This task requires only technical employee hours.
[h].  Occurrences are based on weekly inspection, assuming 52 weeks per year.
[i].  We have assumed that of 28,000 perchloroethylene dry cleaners 19,600 (70 percent) will be above the per consumption cutoff, which will require that the cleaner conduct weekly leak detection and repair.  The remaining 8,400 perchloroethylene dry cleaners will be below the consumption cutoff and are only required to conduct bi-weekly leak detection and repair.
[j.]  We have assumed that facilities below cutoff performs leak detection and repairs on a bi-weekly basis.
[k.]  Major sources contain an average of four machines.  Task requires 1 hour times 4 machines/major source.
[l.]  Approximately 12 existing major sources are subject to the NESHAP.
[m].  Major sources contain an average of four machines.  Task requires 0.25 hour times 4 machines/major source.
[n.]  Area sources contain an average of one machine.  Task requires 0.75 hour times 1 machine/area source. 
[o.]  Approximately 8,000 existing area sources are located in states that already require enhanced monitoring; therefore, 20,000 existing area sources are subject to the NESHAP's enhanced LDAR program.
p[.]  No new major sources are expected for the three-year period of this ICR; therefore, no burden is associated with the development of carbon adsorber monitoring record systems.
[q.]  Occurrences are based on twelve months rolling average of PCE consumption, determined once per month.  
[r.]  This is based on 28,000 area sources and 12 major sources performing this task every year.
[s.]  This task is performed primarily by technical staff.  Management hours are only for a limited number of major sources, and we assume only three major sources will require managerial review.
[t.]  Estimate includes hours for training one owner/operator and one employee.
[u.]  This task requires an equal amount of management and technical employee hours.

Assumptions:
[a.]  We have assumed that there are 28,000 existing area sources and that 2,330 sources will leave the industry and will be replaced by 2,330 new area sources over the next three years.  We have also assumed that there are 12 existing major sources and that no additional major sources will be subject to the NESHAP over the three-year period of this ICR.
[b.]  This cost is based on the average hourly labor rate as follows: Technical $46.21 (GS-12, Step 1, $28.88 + 60%); Managerial $62.27 (GS-13, Step 5, $38.92 + 60%); and Clerical $25.01 (GS-6, Step 3, $15.63 + 60%).  This ICR assumes that Managerial hours are 5 percent of Technical hours, and Clerical hours are 10 percent of Technical hours.  These rates are from the OPM, 2012 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 assume that 30 percent of new sources will consume less than 140 gallons of PCE per year.
[d.]  We assume that five percent of new sources will have to report-exceed consumption cutoff.
[e.]  We assume that 70 percent of new area sources will consume between 140 to 200 gallons of PCE per year.
