### Executive Summary

In February 2012, the EPA proposed the residual risk and technology review (RTR) for secondary aluminum production.

After considering public comments, the agency is publishing a supplemental proposal which will include an updated risk

assessment and some minor changes to the proposed requirements.

To gain a better understanding of the secondary aluminum source category and near

‐ source populations, the EPA

condu cte d a proximity analysis at a study area within 3 miles fr o m sources in th e source category for this rule m akin g

.

This analysis id entifies, on a limited basis, the subpopulations that may be exposed to air pollution from the regulated

sources and thus are ex pect e d to benefit most from this regulation. This analysis does not identify the demographic

characteristics of the most highly affected individuals or communities, nor does it quantify the level of risk faced by

those individuals or communities. The EPA has determined that this supplemental proposal will not have

disproportionately high and adverse human health or environme n tal effects on minority or low

‐ income populations

because it does not affect the level of protection provided to human health or the environment.



### Background

Executive Order (EO) 12898 (59 FR 7629 (Feb. 16, 1994)) establishes federal executive policy on environmental justice.

Its main provision directs federal agencies, to the greatest extent practicable and permitted by law, to make

environmental justice part of their mission by identifying and addressing, as appropriate, disproportionately high and

adverse human health or environmental effects of their program s, policies, and activities on mi nority populations and

low

‐ income populations in the United States. E.O. 12898 informed the development and implementation of the EPA’s

Environmental Justice (EJ) program and EJ policies. Consistent with the E.O. and the Presidential Memorandum that

accompanies the E.O., the agency’s EJ policies promo te envi ron mental protection by focusing attention and agency

efforts on addressing the types of environmental harms and risks that are prevalent among minority, low

‐ income and

indigenous populations. E.O. 12898 and the agency’s EJ policies do not mandate particular outcomes for an action, but

they demand that de cisions involving the action be informed by a consideration of EJ issues. Where feasible, actions

should prevent or address and mitigate EJ concerns.

A key element of environmental justice is ensuring that all people have an opportunity for meaningful involvement in

the decision

‐ making process. Certain groups may not have participated in the decision

‐ maki ng process hi storically

because of economic (e.g., income), social (e.g., language barriers, education levels, distrust of government) and

structural reasons. A critical concern is whether, and the extent to which, communities have the ability to influence the

types and number of regulated activities taking place in their com munity, as wel l as the requirements, conditions and

parameters by which such regulated activities must operate (e.g., permit conditions).

The EPA aims to notify and engage the public in a variety of ways. Each rule is reviewed to identify appropriate

mechanisms to promote meaningful involvement, which may include notices on the EJAir we bsi t e, community call

discussions, fact sheets, community meetings and/or webinars. Additionally, when reliable source location data is

available, the EPA strives to provide a screening report of near source populations. It is important to note that while the

EPA provides near

‐ source data, whether or not a facility

‐ level analysis is appropriate depend s on the Clean Air Act’s

(CAA) authority for the subject rule. For example, CAA sections 112 (d) and 112(f), which address hazardous air

pollutants, require the EPA to establish emission standards that apply to all sources in specified categories or

subcategories. In the case of the CAA 11 2(f), the EPA sets standards to ensure the pu blic is pr otected with an ample

margin of safety based on the maximum exposed individual risk (MIR) or the facility in the source category that poses

the highest risks to the public, and must consider specific statutory factors, including costs, energy and sa fety.

# Statistical SummaryCategory Totals and T-Tests

The EPA compares aggregated study area demographics to U.S. demographics in three tables within this section:

 Table 1

–

Demographic totals for the entire source category and U.S. demographic totals

 Table 2

–

Demographics averaged across study areas vs. U.S. average demographics

 Table 3

–

Proportion of study areas with populations exceeding U.S. average demographics

Table 1 is simply calculated by summing the demographic data in the study areas; however, urban study areas can often skew

the data. Therefore, Tables 2 and 3 use statistical inference to answer two additional and specific questions :

1. On average, how much do the demographics within the study areas differ from the U.S. population?

2. How often do the demographics within the study areas exceed U.S. average demographics?

Table 2

– Hypothesis Test for Question 1 (T-test for population average) 1

 Null Hypothesis (H 0 ): The proportion of the population in demographic category X within a given study area is a

normally-distributed random variable with mean EQUAL TO the U.S. average.

 Alternative Hypothesis (H 1 ): The proportion of the population in demographic category X within a given study area is a

normally-distributed random variable with mean NOT EQUAL TO the U.S. average.

 Test statistic: T = (Study area average %

– U.S. average %)/Standard Error

 If H 0 is true, then T has a T-distribution with mean = 0 and degrees of freedom = # study areas

– 1. The p-value is the

probability that H 0 is true given the value of T calculated from the demographic data.

 Statistical Conclusions:

o If the p- value is large (≥ 0.05): The a verage proportion of the study area population in demographic category

X is not significantly different from the U.S. average.

o If the p-value is small (< 0.05) and the T-statistic is POSITIVE: The average proportion of the study area

population in demographic category X is significantly greater than the U.S. average.

o If the p-value is small (< 0.05) and the T-statistic is NEGATIVE: The average proportion of the study area

population in demographic category X is significantly less than the U.S. average.

 Study areas with fewer than 100 total residents are ignored.

Table 3

– Hypothesis Test for Question 2 (T-test for occurrence) 1

 Null Hypothesis (H 0 ): The proportion of study areas having population in demographic category X exceeding the U.S.

average is EQUAL TO 50%.

 Alternative Hypothesis (H 1 ): The proportion of study areas having population in demographic category X exceeding

the U.S. average is NOT EQUAL TO 50%.

 Test statistic: T = (% of study areas > U.S. average

– 50%)/Standard Error

 If H 0 is true, then T has a T-distribution with mean = 0 and degrees of freedom = # study areas

– 1. The p-value is the

probability that H 0 is true given the value of T calculated from the demographic data.

 Statistical Conclusions:

o If the p- value is large (≥ 0 .05): The proportion of study areas having population in demographic category X

exceeding the U.S. average is not significantly different from 50%.

o If the p-value is small (< 0.05) and T > 0: The proportion of study areas having population in demographic

category X exceeding the U.S. average is significantly greater than 50%.

o If the p-value is small (< 0.05) and T < 0: The proportion of study areas having population in demographic

category X exceeding the U.S. average is significantly less than 50%.

 Study areas with fewer than 100 total residents are ignored.

A qualitative summary on the statistical significance immediately follows the tabular data in this section.

1 T-tests are designed for use when the number of study areas is large. Other tests may be used in place of T-tests for Tables 2 and 3 when there are fewer than 50

study areas.

## Statistical Summary (Category Totals and T-Tests)

Demographic Category Minority

Summary of the data:

Demographic Category Linguistically Isolated

Summary of the data: Table 3 indicates that 6% of study areas have a greater Linguistically Isolated population than the national

average. This is significantly less from the 50% we would expect if the study areas were randomly distributed

across the U.S.

The national proportion (Table 1) and average proportion (Table 2) of Linguistically Isolated populations living in

the study areas are both less than the national average. Furthermore, 6% of the study areas have Linguistically

Isolated populations greater than the national average (Table 3). This suggests that the proportion of

Linguistically Isolated populations living in the study areas is significantly less than the national average. Table 1 indicates that nationally, 30% of the people living within 3.0 miles of the study areas are Minority. This is

-6 point(s), or -16.7%, compared to the national average of 36% in 2010.

Table 2 indicates that on average, 18% of the people living in the study areas are Minority. The -18 point

difference in the average proportion is significantly less when compared to the national average.

Table 3 indicates that 16% of study areas have a greater Minority population than the national average. This is

significantly less from the 50% we would expect if the study areas were randomly distributed across the U.S.

The national proportion (Table 1) and average proportion (Table 2) of Minority populations living in the study

areas are both less than the national average. Furthermore, 16% of the study areas have Minority populations

greater than the national average (Table 3). This suggests that the proportion of Minority populations living in

the study areas is significantly less than the national average.

Table 1 indicates that nationally, 3% of the people living within 3.0 miles of the study areas are Linguistically

Isolated. This is -2 point(s), or -40%, compared to the national average of 5% in 2010.

Table 2 indicates that on average, 2% of the people living in the study areas are Linguistically Isolated. The -3

point difference in the average proportion is significantly less when compared to the national average.

## Statistical Summary (Category Totals and T-Tests)

Demographic Category Age 0 - 4

Summary of the data:

Demographic Category Age 65+

Summary of the data: Table 1 indicates that nationally, 7% of the people living within 3.0 miles of the study areas are Age 0 - 4. This is

approximately equal to the national average of 7% in 2010.

Table 2 indicates that on average, 7% of the people living in the study areas are Age 0 - 4. The 0 point difference

in the average proportion is significant when compared to the national average.

Table 3 indicates that 61% of study areas have a greater Age 0 - 4 population than the national average. This is

not significant from the 50% we would expect if the study areas were randomly distributed across the U.S.

The national proportion (Table 1) of Age 0 - 4 populations living in the study areas is approximately equal to the

national average; however, the average proportion (Table 2) is significantly greater than the national average.

Furthermore, 61% of the study areas have Age 0 - 4 populations greater than the national average (Table 3). This

suggests that the average proportion of Age 0 - 4 populations living in the study areas is significantly greater

than the national average, but there is a large amount of variability among the study areas.

Table 1 indicates that nationally, 13% of the people living within 3.0 miles of the study areas are Age 65+. This is

approximately equal to the national average of 13% in 2010.

Table 2 indicates that on average, 14% of the people living in the study areas are Age 65+. The 1 point difference

in the average proportion is significant when compared to the national average.

Table 3 indicates that 57% of study areas have a greater Age 65+ population than the national average. This is

not significant from the 50% we would expect if the study areas were randomly distributed across the U.S.

The national proportion (Table 1) of Age 65+ populations living in the study areas is approximately equal to the

national average; however, the average proportion (Table 2) is significantly greater than the national average.

Furthermore, 57% of the study areas have Age 65+ populations greater than the national average (Table 3). This

suggests that the average proportion of Age 65+ populations living in the study areas is significantly greater than

the national average, but there is a large amount of variability among the study areas.

## Statistical Summary (Category Totals and T-Tests)

Demographic Category Without a HS Diploma

Summary of the data:

Demographic Category Low Income

Summary of the data: Table 1 indicates that nationally, 16% of the people living within 3.0 miles of the study areas are Without a HS

Diploma. This is 1 point(s), or 6.7%, greater than the national average of 15% in 2010.

Table 2 indicates that on average, 17% of the people living in the study areas are Without a HS Diploma. The 2

point difference in the average proportion is not significant when compared to the national average.

The national proportion (Table 1) and average proportion (Table 2) of Low Income populations living in the

study areas are both greater than the national average. Furthermore, 71% of the study areas have Low Income

populations greater than the national average (Table 3). This suggests that the proportion of Low Income

populations living in the study areas is significantly greater than the national average. Table 3 indicates that 47% of study areas have a greater Without a HS Diploma population than the national

average. This is not significant from the 50% we would expect if the study areas were randomly distributed

across the U.S.

The national proportion (Table 1) of Without a HS Diploma populations living in the study areas is greater than

the national average; however, the average proportion (Table 2) is not significantly different than the national

average. Furthermore, 47% of the study areas have Without a HS Diploma populations greater than the national

average (Table 3). This suggests that the average proportion of Without a HS Diploma populations living in the

study areas is not significantly different than the national average, and there is a large amount of variability

among the study areas.

Table 1 indicates that nationally, 36% of the people living within 3.0 miles of the study areas are Low Income.

This is 4 point(s), or 12.5%, greater than the national average of 32% in 2010.

Table 2 indicates that on average, 37% of the people living in the study areas are Low Income. The 5 point

difference in the average proportion is significant when compared to the national average.

Table 3 indicates that 71% of study areas have a greater Low Income population than the national average. This

is significant from the 50% we would expect if the study areas were randomly distributed across the U.S.
