$1 a hand

3bb/100 in 15-30 is .90 cents a hand. I think decent players made that in Party 15-30 circa 2003, for example. Those games were pretty juicy (or more so on Pacific or Bodog...), but going from Party 15-30 to live 15-30 was like going from Party 15-30 to Party 2-4. UTG raise, 6 cold callers, etc.

The online games have gotten much tougher of course, but live ones hardly at all, the little I've seen. So I would think that 5+bb/100 would be still be well within reach in a decent live 15-30 game. Not many hands per hour--but that's not what you asked, and it puts you well over $1 a hand.

The first sentence in my original post was "Making $1/hand at live poker is easy".

I do not believe that there are 3BB/100 winners in the typical 15/30s that run online. People can be really anal and only sit in exceptionally easy games it's possible, but it's not practical for anyone.
