### 3 Overview

This Technical Support Document (TSD) describes an approach for estimating the

average avoided human health impacts, and monetized benefits related to emissions of

PM 2.5 

### and PM 2.5 

### precursors including NO

x 

### and SO 2 

### from 17 sector s using the results of

source apportionment photochemical modeling

. We focus in particular on the aspects of

our approach that represent a change from the benefit per ton calculation methodology

described in Fann, Fulcher and Hubbell (2009) and subsequently applied in several EPA

RIAs. We also describe the ways in which these new estimates can improve our

characterization of the PM 2.5



### - related health benefits from the sectors that were modeled , as

well as limitations and uncertainties associated with application of these estimates

. We

summarize the benefit per ton estimates for each of the 1 7 emission sectors. These source

appo rtionment based benefit per ton estimat es are also discussed in Fann, Baker and

Fulcher ( 2012)

.

Summary of Calculations

The procedure for calculating benefit per ton coefficients follows three steps , shown

graphically in Figure 1 :

1. Use source apportionment photochemical modeling to predict ambient

concentrations of primary PM 2.5

emission sectors across the Continental U.S

impacts, associated with the attributable ambient concentrations of primary PM 2.5

Program (BenMAP v4. 0. 66 ) 1



### .

3. For each sector, d ivide the PM 2.5



### - related health impacts attributable to each type of

PM 2.5 

### , and the monetary value of these impacts, by the level of associated precursor

em ission s. That is, primary PM 2.5 

### benefits are divided by direct PM 2.5 

### emissions,

sulfate benefits are divided by SO 2 

### emissions, and nitrate benefits are divided by

NO

x 

### emissions.

1 In this stage we estimate the PM 2.5

- related impacts associated with changes in directly emitted PM 2.5 , nitrate

and sulfate separately, so that we may ultimately calculate the benefit per ton reduced of the corresponding

PM 2.5 precursor, or directly emitted PM 2.5 , in step 3. When estimating these impacts we apply effect

coefficients that relate changes in total PM 2.5 mass to the risk of adverse health outcomes; we do not apply

effect coefficients that are differentiated by PM 2. 5 specie.

The example above depicts the total PM 2.5 

### contribution from the pulp and paper

sector , though we repeat this process for each of the 1 7 sectors, which include:

1. Aircraft, locomotives and marine vessels

2. Area sources

3. Cem ent kilns

4. Coke ovens

5. Electric arc furnaces

6. Electricity generating units

14. Pulp and paper facilities

15. Refineries

16. Residential wood combustion

17. Taconite mines

The “ Area s ources” and “ Industrial p oint s ources ” categories are agglomeration s of

sectors that we re not model ed separately. When selecting a benefit per ton estimate for use

wit h a sector not specifically modeled, it is necessary to determine which composite sector

is the best match with respect to the source characteristics that would affect the lev e l of

benefits. These attributes include the proximity to receptor populations, t he geographic

distribution of sources, and the release parameters of the source (e.g., stack height)

.

Readers interested in a full discussion of the air quality modeling performed to

generate these benefit per ton estimates may consult “Air Quality Modeli ng Technical

Support Document: Source Sector Assessments” (US EPA 2011a)

. Ambient PM 2.5

### 5 concentration s attributable to each sector were projected from the 2005 baseline to 2016

to represent growth and the application of controls. The starting point for the projections

was the 2005 v4.3 emissions platform (US EPA 2005)

. EGU emission estimates for 2016 are

from the Integrated Planning Model (IPM). The 2016 projection included emission

reductions related to the NO

x 

### State Implementation Plan Call (US EPA 1998) , the Maximum

Achievable Control Technology (MACT) Standards for Industrial Boilers (US EPA 2011d)

and Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines (US EPA 2010b) , and the proposed

Transport Rule affecting emissions from Electricity Generating Units (US EPA 2010c)

.

C ontrol and growth factors , including known plant shut

- downs and economic growth in

some sectors, were applied to a subset of the 2005 industrial point sources and area

sources to create the 2016 projection . Other North American emissions are based on a

2006 Canadian invento ry and 1999 Mexican inventory, which are not grown or controlled

when used as part of future year baseline inventories (US EPA 2011b; US EPA 2011c)

.

Global emissions are incl uded in the modeling system through boundary condition inflow

to the 36 km CAMx simulation. The initial and boundary conditions for the 36 km CAMx

simulation are based on 3

- hourly output from an annual 2005 GEOS

- CHEM simulation

(standard version 7

- 11). Table 1 summarize s the total precursor emissions attributable

to each sector in 2016. Appendix B of this TSD includes plots of the PM 2.5

### 6 The photochemical modeling used here also produced estimates of ozone levels

attributable to each sector. However, the complex non

- linear chemistry governing ozone

formation prevented us from developing a complementary array of ozone benefit per ton

values . This limitation notwithstanding, we anticipate that the ozone

associated with reducing emissions of NO

x 

### and VOC for many of these sectors c ould be

substantial.

Finally, it is important to note that while m ost VOCs emitted are oxidized t o carbon

dioxide (CO 2 

### ) rather than to PM, a portion of VOC emission contributes to ambient PM 2.5



### levels as organic carbon aerosols (US EPA 2009)

. T herefore, reducing these emissions

would reduce PM 2.5 

### forma tion, human exposure to PM 2.5



### , and the incidence of PM 2.5



### - related

health effects. However, we have not quantified VOC benefit per ton estimate s in this

analysis. Uncertainties in both the origin and quantity of emissions contributing to

secondary organic a erosol on regional scales limit the quality of regional scale modeling of

secondary organic carbon. Modeling and monitoring the relative amount of organic

particles that are formed through secondary processes, versus primarily emitted organic

particles, is highly uncertain. While the relative contributions of different sources to

regional sulfate and nitrate can be quantified with certainty, the contributions from

different sources to secondary organic aerosol are less clear. Carbonaceous aerosol reflects

a complex mixture of hundreds to thousands of organic carbon compounds, many of which

have not been successfully quantified. Despite progress that has been made in

understanding the origin, properties, and key formation processes of SOA, it remains the

leas t understood component of PM2.5 (Federal Register; 40CFR Parts 51, 72, 75, and 96

Rule to Reduce Interstate Transport of Fine Particulate Matter and Ozone (Interstate Air

Quality Rule); Proposed Rule. January 30, 2004).

Below we provide an expanded discus sion of each of the latter two steps to the

calculation

— estimating health impacts and economic value of PM 2.5 

### attributable to each

sector and calculating the benefit per ton coefficients

. The discussion of these topics is not

intended to be exhaustive, and readers interested in learning more about our approach to

performing an air pollution health impact and benefits analysis may consult the PM NAAQS

RIA (US EPA 2012)

.

Estimating the number of PM 2.5 

### - related health impacts attributable to ea ch sector

In this stage of the analysis we perform ed a Health Impact Assessment (HIA)

, which

quantifies the changes in the incidence of adverse health impacts resulting from changes in

human exposure to PM 2.5 

### from each sector . HIAs are a well

- established approach for

estimating the retrospective or prospective change in adverse health impacts expected to

result from population

- level changes in exposure to pollutants (Levy et al. 2009) . PC

- based

### 7 tools such as the environmental B en efits M apping and A nalysis P rogram (BenMAP) can

systematize health impact analyses by applying a database of key input parameters,

including health impact functions and population projections (Abt Associates Inc. 2012)

. Analysts have applied the HIA approach to estimate human health impacts resulting from

hypothetical changes in pollutant levels (Hubbell et al. 2004; Davidson et al. 2007; Tagaris

et al. 2009)

.

The HIA approach used in this analysis involves three basic steps: (1) utilizing

CAMx

- - generated estimates of PM 2.5 

### levels attributed to each sector ; (2) determining the

subsequent change in population

- level exposure; (3) calculating health impacts by applying

concentration

- response relationships drawn from the epidemiolo gical literature to this

change in population exposure (Hubbell et al. 2009)

. This procedure is operationalized

within BenMAP using a health impact functio n.

A typical health impact function look s as follows:

∆ y = y

o 

### ∙ � e β

∙ ∆ x



### − 1 �

∙ Pop

where y 0 

### is the baseline incidence rate for the health endpoint being quantified (for

example, a health impact function quantifying changes in mortality would use the baseline,

or background, mortality rate for the given population of interest); Pop is the populati on

affected by the change in air quality , whose size and distribution we have projected to the

analysis year ; ∆ x is the change in air quality; and β is the effect coefficient drawn from the

epidemiological study. Tools such as BenMAP can systematize the HI A calculation process,

allowing users to draw upon a library of existing air quality monitoring data, population

data and health impact functions.

Figure 2 provides a simplified overview of this approach , using PM 2.5



### - related

premature mortality as an example, though the procedure is generally the same for other

health endpoints

. This sequence of steps is performed for each of the 1 7 sectors for each

PM 2.5 

### component (primary PM 2.5 

### , sulfate and nitrate). The PM 2.5 

### health endpoints

quantified and the health impact functions applied in this analysis are consistent with the

PM NAAQS RIA (US EPA 2012) . That RIA includes a detailed discussion of each of the data

inputs, analytical assumptions and sources of uncertainty. In the interest of brevity, we do

not repeat these here in detail

. However, it is worth noting that we exclude the value of

several important non

- health endpoints, including recrea tional and residential visibility,

climate

- related impacts and ecological endpoints. Table 2 below summarizes the endpoints

quantified in this benefit per ton TSD.

methods.

3 We assess these benefits qualitatively because current evidence is only suggestive of causality or there are other

significant concerns ov er the strength of the association.

### 10 Estimating the e conomic v alu e of h ealth i mpacts attributable to each sector

After quantifying the change in adverse health impacts, the next step is to estimate

the economic value of these avoided impacts. The appropriate economic value for a change

in a health effect depends on whether the health effect is viewed ex ante (before the effect

has occurred) or ex post (after the effect has occurr ed). Reductions in ambient

concentrations of air pollution generally lower the risk of future adverse health effects by a

small amount for a large population. The appropriate economic measure is therefore ex

ante Willingness to Pay (WTP) for changes in ris k. However, epidemiological studies

generally provide estimates of the relative risks of a particular health effect avoided due to

a reduction in air pollution. A convenient way to use this data in a consistent framework is

to convert probabilities to unit s of avoided statistical incidences. This measure is calculated

by dividing individual WTP for a risk reduction by the related observed change in risk. For

example, suppose a measure is able to reduce the risk of premature mortality from 2 in

10,000 to 1 i n 10,000 (a reduction of 1 in 10,000). If individual WTP for this risk reduction

is $100, then the WTP for an avoided statistical premature mortality amounts to $1 million

($100/0.0001 change in risk). Using this approach, the size of the affected populati on is

automatically taken into account by the number of incidences predicted by epidemiological

studies applied to the relevant population. The same type of calculation can produce values

for statistical incidences of other health endpoints.

For some heal th effects, such as hospital admissions, WTP estimates are generally

not available. In these cases, we use the cost of treating or mitigating the effect as a primary

estimate. For example, for the valuation of hospital admissions we use the avoided medical

costs as an estimate of the value of avoiding the health effects causing the admission. These

cost of illness (COI) estimates generally (although not in every case) understate the true

value of reductions in risk of a health effect. They tend to reflect t he direct expenditures

related to treatment but not the value of avoided pain and suffering from the health effect.

Avoided premature deaths account for 98% of monetized PM

- related benefits. The

economics literature concerning the appropriate method for va luing reductions in

premature mortality risk is still developing. The adoption of a value for the projected

reduction in the risk of premature mortality is the subject of continuing discussion within

the economics and public policy analysis community. Foll owing the advice of the SAB’s

Environmental Economics Advisory Committee (SAB

- EEAC), the EPA currently uses the

value of statistical life (VSL) approach in calculating estimates of mortality benefits,

because we believe this calculation provides the most r easonable single estimate of an

individual’s willingness to trade off money for reductions in mortality risk (US EPA

- SAB

2000) . The VSL approach is a summary measure for the value of small changes in mortality

risk experienced by a large number of people.

### 11 EPA continues work to update its guidance on valuing mortality risk reductions, and

the Agency consulted several times with the SAB

- EEAC on the issue. Until updated

guidance is avail able, the Agency determined that a single, peer

- reviewed estimate applied

consistently best reflects the SAB

- EEAC advice it has received. Therefore, EPA has decided

to apply the VSL that was vetted and endorsed by the SAB in the Guidelines for Preparing

Ec onomic Analyses (US EPA 2000) while the Agency continues its efforts to update its

guidance on this issue

. 2 

### This approach calculates a mean v alue across VSL estimates

derived from 26 labor market and contingent valuation studies published between 1974

and 1991. The mean VSL across these studies is $6.3 million (2000$). 3 

### We then adjust this

VSL to account for the currency year used for the analy sis and to account for income

growth from 1990 to the analysis year. Table 3 shows the adjusted VSL estimates for

currency years 2000

- 2012 for the income growth years used in the source apportionment

benefit per ton calculations.

2011 $8.2 $9.6 $9.9 $10.1

2012 $8.4 $9.8 $10.1 $10.4

a Income growth projections are only available to 2024, so both the 2025 and 2030 estimates use

income growth to 2024 and are therefore likely underestimates.

2 In the updated Guidelines for Preparing Economic Analyses (US EPA 2010a) , EPA retained the VSL endorsed

by the SAB with the understanding that further updates to the mortality risk valuation guidance woul d be

forthcoming in the near future.

3 In 1990$, this VSL is $4.8 million.

### 12 In valuing premature mortality, we discount the value of premature mortality

occurring in future years using rates of 3% and 7% (OMB 2003) . We assume that ther e is a

“cessation” lag between changes in PM exposures and the total realization of changes in

health effects. Although the structure of the lag is uncertain, the EPA follows the advice of

the SAB

- HES to assume a segmented lag structure characterized by 30 % of mortality

reductions in the first year, 50% over years 2 to 5, and 20% over the years 6 to 20 after the

reduction in PM 2.5 

### (US EPA

- SAB 2004) . Changes in the cessation lag assum ptions do not

change the total number of estimated deaths but rather the timing of those deaths.

We express the economic value of the avoided impacts using constant year 2010

dollars, adjusted for growth in real income out to the analysis year using projec tions

provided by Standard and Poor’s. However, these projections are only available to 2024, so

both the 2025 and 2030 estimates use income growth to 2024. Economic theory argues

that WTP for most goods (such as environmental protection) will increase if real income

increases. Many of the valuation studies used in this analysis were conducted in the late

1980s and early 1990s. Because real income has grown since the studies were conducted,

people’s willingness to pay for reductions in the risk of premature death and disease likely

has grown as well. We did not adjust cost of illness

- based values because they are based on

current cos ts. For these two reasons, the cost of illness estimates may underestimate the

economic value of avoided health impacts in each analysis year

. As with the selection of

health studies, the economic valuation estimates applied in this analysis are consistent with

those used in the PM NAAQS RIA.

Calculating the benefit per ton estimate

The final step is to divide the incidence of adv erse health outcomes, and the

economic value of those outcomes, a ssociated with the primary PM 2.5 

### , nitrate and sulfate

attributable to each sector by the sector emissions of directly emitted PM 2.5 

### , NO

x 

### and SO 2



### .

The result is a suite of incidence per ton an d $ benefit per ton estimates for each sector.

Below we summarize the total $ per ton estimates for each of the 1 7 sectors , with more

detailed health impacts per ton for each sector provided in Appendix A . The results for four

analysis years (2016, 2020, 2025 and 2030) are presented.

also do not capture important differences in marginal $/ton that may exist due to different combinations of reductions (i.e., all other sectors a re held

### 21 Lowest Measured Air Quality Level Exposure Assessment

Assessments quantifying PM 2.5 

### related health impacts generally find that cases of

avoided mortality represent the majority of the monetized benefits. For this reason, EPA

has historically performed a series of analyses that characterize the uncertainty associated

with the PM

- mortality relationship and the economic value of reducing the risk of

premature death (Mansfield et al. 2009; Roman et al. 2008; US EPA 2012)

. Here we focus

on the level of uncertainty associated with the avoided premature deaths estimated to

occur due to air quality improvements below the lowest levels of PM 2.5 

### observed in the

epidemiological studies used to quantify such risks

.

In general, we are more confident in the magnitude of the risks we estimate from

simulated PM 2.5 

### concentrations that coincide with the bulk of the observed PM

concentrations in the epidemiological studies that are used to estimate the benefits.

Likewise, we are less confident in the risk we estimate from simulated PM 2.5 

### concentrations

that fall below the bulk of the observed data in these studies. Concentration benchmark

analyses (e.g., lowest measu red level [LML] or one standard deviation below the mean of

the air quality data in the study ) a llow readers to determine the portion of population

exposed to annual mean PM 2.5 

### levels at or above different concentrations, which provides

some insight into t he level of uncertainty in the estimated PM 2.5 

### mortality benefits. There

are uncertainties inherent in identifying any particular point at which our confidence in

reported associations becomes appreciably less, and the scientific evidence provides no

clear dividing line. However, the EPA does not view these concentration benchmarks as a

concentration threshold below which we would not quantify health benefits of air quality

improvements. 4 

### Rather, the benefits estimates reported are the best available estimates

because they reflect the full range of air quality concentrations associated with the

emission reduction strategies and because the current body of scientific literature indicates

that a no

- threshold model provides the best estimate of PM

- related long

- term mortality. In

other words, although we may have less confidence in the magnitude of the risk at

concentrations below these benchmarks, we still have high confidence that PM 2.5 

### is causally

associated with risk at those lower air quality concentra tions.

For a benefit per ton analysis, policy

- specific air quality data is not available due to

time or resource limitations. For rules using benefit per ton estimates , we are unable to

estimate the percentage of premature mortality associated with that ru le’s emission

reductions at each PM 2.5 

### level. However, we believe that it is still important to characterize

4 F or a summary of the scientific review statements regarding the lack of a threshold in the PM 2.5

- mortality

relationship, see the Technical Support Document (TSD) entitled Summary of Expert Opinions on the Existence

of a Threshold in the Concentration

- Response Function for PM 2.5

- related Mortality (US EPA 2010d)

.

### 22 the distribution of exposure to baseline air quality levels as a representation of the starting

point for any marginal reductions in air pollution as a result of sector specific emissions

reductions . As a surrogate measure of mortality impacts, we provide the percentage of the

population exposed at each PM 2.5 

### level in the baseline of the source apportionment

modeling used to calculate the benefit

- per

- ton estimates for this sector. It is important to

note that baseline exposure is only one parameter in the health impact function, along with

baseline incidence rates population, and change in air quality. In other words, the

percentage of the population exposed to air pollution below the LML is not the same as the

percentage of the population experiencing health impacts as a result of a specific emission

reduction policy. The most important aspect, which we are unable to quantify for rules

without rule

- sp ecific air quality modeling, is the shift in exposure associated with a specific

rule. Therefore, caution is warranted when interpreting the LML assessment for any

particular sector rule because these results are not consistent with results from rule s that

had air quality modeling.

Table 13 provides the percentage of the population exposed above and below two

concentration benchmarks (i.e., LML and 1 standard deviation below the mean) in the

modeled baseline. Figure 3 shows a bar chart of the percentage of the population exposed

to various air quality levels in the baseline, and Figure 4 shows a cumulative distribution

function of the same data. Both figures identify the LML for each of the major cohort

studies.

a One standard deviation below the mean is equivalent to the middle of the range between the 10 th and 25 th

percentile. For Krewski, the LML is 5.8 μg/m 3 and one standard deviation below the mean is 11.0 μg/m 3 . For

Lepeule et al., the LML is 8 μg/m 3 and we do not have the data for one standard deviation below the mean. It is

important to emphasize that although we have lower levels of confidence in levels below the LML for each study,

the scientific evidence does not support the existence of a level below which health effects from exposure to PM 2.5

do not occur.

93% are exposed to PM 2.5 levels at or above the LML of the Kr ewski et al. (2009) study

Limitations

This analysis includes many data sources as inputs, incl uding emission inventories,

air quality data from models (with their ass ociated parameters and i nputs), population

data, health effect estimates from epidemiology studies, and economic data f or monetizing

benefits. Each of these inputs may be uncertain and woul d affect the benefits estimate.

When the uncertainties from each st age of the a nalysis are compounded, small

uncertainties can have large effects on the total quantified benefits. T his analysis does not

include the type of detailed uncertainty assessment found in the PM NAAQS RIA (US EPA

2012; US EPA 2006) . However, the results of the Monte Carlo analyses of the health and

welfare benefits presented in the PM RIA s can provide some evidence of the uncertainty

surrounding the benefits results presented in this analysis.

In this analysis w e assume that all fine particles, regardless of their ch emical

composition, are equally potent in causing premature mortality. This is an important 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% 100%

It is also important to note that the monetized benefit per ton estimates u sed here

reflect specific geographic patterns of emissions and sp ecific air quality and benefits

modeling assumptions. Great care should be taken in applying these e stimates to emission

reductions occurring in any specific loca tion, as these are all based on national emission

reduction assumptions and therefor e represent an averag e benefit per ton over the enti re

United States. The benefit per ton for emission reductions in specific locations may be very

different from the estimates presented here. In addition, estimates do not capture

important differences in marginal benefit per ton that may exist due to different

combinations of reductions (i.e., all other sectors are held constant) or nonlinearities

within a particular pollutant (e.g., non

- zero second derivatives with respect to emissions).

The maps in Appendix B provide an indi cation of the location of the facilities that were

modeled a s well as the associated PM 2.5 

### levels.

When using these benefit per ton estimates in analyses, care should be taken to not

overstate the accuracy of the total benefits estimates or estimat es of avoided incidence. For

this reason, it is EPA practice to round total benefits estimates to two significant digits and

to round estimates of avoided incidence to the nearest whole number.
