The total paperwork related labor cost for the entire industry (Non-liquid alternative fuels) is approximately $26,647 ($24,279 for certification and labeling costs + $2,368 for recordkeeping costs). AFV manufacturers: The maximum labor cost for the entire industry (AFV manufacturers) is approximately $1,128,370 per year for recordkeeping and producing and posting labels (37,388 hours × $30.18/ hour). Thus, the estimated total labor cost for both industries for all paperwork requirements is $1,155,017 ($26,647 + $1,128,370) per year, rounded. (3) Estimated annual non-labor cost burden: $426,251 rounded (includes both Non-liquid Alternative Fuels and AFV Manufacturers). Non-liquid Alternative Fuels: Staff believes that there are no current start-up costs associated with the Rule, inasmuch as the Rule has been effective since 1995. Industry members, therefore, have in place the capital equipment and means necessary to determine automotive fuel ratings and comply with the Rule. Industry members, however, incur the cost of procuring fuel dispenser and AFV labels to comply with the Rule. The estimated annual fuel labeling cost, based on estimates of 560 fuel dispensers (assumptions: an estimated 20% of 1,400 total fuel retailers need to replace labels in any given year given an approximate five-year life for labels— i.e., 280 retailers—multiplied by an average of two dispensers per retailer) at thirty-eight cents for each label (per industry sources), is $212.8 ($0.38 × 560). wwoods2 on DSK1DXX6B1PROD with NOTICES_PART 1 AFV Manufacturers: Here, too, staff believes that there are no current start-up costs associated with the Rule, for the same reasons as stated immediately above regarding the nonliquid alternative fuel industry. However, based on the labeling of an estimated 1,121,153 new and used AFVs each year at thirty-eight cents for each label (per industry sources), the annual AFV labeling cost is estimated to be $426,038.14 ($0.38 × 1,121,153). Thus, the estimated total annual nonlabor cost burden associated with VerDate Nov<24>2008 15:08 Mar 16, 2010 Jkt 220001 Dated: March 3, 2010.

This new Standard Mileage Rate for moving purposes is effective January 1, 2010, through December 31, 2010.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Change in Standard Procedure GSA issues/publishes the standard mileage rate for moving purposes in conjunction with relocation, formerly published in 41 CFR Chapter 302, solely on the Internet at http:www.gsa.gov/ relopolicy. This process, implemented in 2008, ensures more timely updates in relocation mileage rates by GSA for Federal employees on official travel within CONUS. Notices published periodically in the Federal Register, such as this one, now constitute the only notification of revisions in the relocation mileage rate to Federal agencies.
