Short Statement:
There is no change in the labor hours in this ICR compared to the pervious ICR. This is due to two considerations. First, the regulations have not changed over the past three years. Secondly, the growth rate for the industry is very low, negative or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden. However, there is an adjustment increase in the total estimated labor costs. The change in cost estimates occurred because the labor rates have increased since the last ICR. This ICR used the most recent labor rates in calculating all burden costs. Additionally, the annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information has increased from 103 hours per response to 145 hours per response (41 hours per response for 40 CFR part 60, subpart PPP, and 250 hours per response for 40 CFR part 63, subpart NNN). This is due to a correction in the total number of annual responses. The total number of annual responses decreased from 180 to 128. To calculate the number of responses, the previous ICR assumed that all 29 sources subject to subpart NNN were required to submit Startup, Shutdown, and Malfunction (SSM) reports semiannually. This method was inconsistent with the Table 1 burden calculation, which assumed only 10% of all sources submit such reports. This ICR corrected the number of sources for submitting SSM reports, which results in a decrease in the number of responses for subpart NNN.
