## MEMORANDUM

DATE: September 2014

TO: Docket EPA-HQ-OAR-2010-0929

FROM: Lisa Grogan-McCulloch

SUBJECT: Final Evaluation of Competitive Harm from Disclosure of “Inputs to

Equations” Data Elements Deferred to March 31, 2015

Introduction and Purpose of Analysis

In the August 25, 2011, final rule deferring report ing of certain inputs to emission equations under 40 CFR part 98 (76 FR 53057) (hereafter refer red to as “‘inputs to equations’ data elements”) until March 31, 2015, the EPA expressed its intent to further evaluate the “inputs to equations” data elements to determine which, if any , could result in competitive harm if made publicly available. The EPA outlined a four-step pr ocess for this evaluation in the final rule and in a supporting memorandum entitled “Process for Ev aluating and Potentially Amending Part 98 Inputs to Emission Equations” (docket EPA-HQ-OAR-20 10-0929).

The EPA documented the results of the review undert aken for the second step of this evaluation process (i.e., the EPA’s analysis of the competitiv e harm that would likely result from reporting of “inputs to equations” data elements) in its memo randum “Evaluation of Competitive Harm from Disclosure of ‘Inputs to Equations’ Data Eleme nts Deferred to March 31, 2015,” August 2013, in support of the proposed September 11, 2013 rulemaking amending Part 98 to address this competitive harm (78 FR 55994). This review wa s undertaken for 27 of the 28 subparts of the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program (GHGRP) with “ inputs to equations.” 1 

## This memorandum is the final memorandum, which takes int o consideration public comments submitted on the September 11, 2013 proposed rulema king.

The evaluation of competitive harm includes:

• Part 1: An evaluation of the current market structu res for sectors required to report “inputs to equations” data elements, to determine w hether conditions exist within the market structures such that the release of the data could result in competitive harm, and

1 

### The review was not conducted for 2015 data inputs in subpart I because reporting of the “inputs to e quations” data elements for that subpart was addressed in a separate propos ed action [see 78 FR 68162 , November 13, 2013]. Additionally, the evaluation of the subpart C “inputs to equations” i n this memorandum encompasses the one subpart A “in put to equation” data element. As a result, the one subpart A “input to equation” is not listed explicitly in this memo randum.

## 2



## • Part 2: For those sectors for which the market stru cture analysis determined that reporting of the “inputs to equations” data elements could re sult in competitive harm, an evaluation of each individual “inputs to equations” data eleme nts to determine whether its release would be likely to cause competitive harm.

The EPA’s evaluation of current market structures i s presented in Part 1 of this memorandum. For all sectors in which the market structure analy sis summarized in Part 1 determined that the conditions exist within the market such that firms could use released “inputs to equations” data elements to gain a competitive advantage, the EPA p roceeded to evaluate each individual “inputs to equations” data element. Part 2 of this memorand um presents an evaluation of each individual “inputs to equations” data element to determine whe ther potential release would be likely to cause substantial competitive harm.

## Part 1: Evaluation of Market Structures

1.0 Introduction

The following sections describes the overall proces s used to assess the market structures that exist within the different subparts of 40 CFR part 98 with “inputs to equations” data elements, to determine whether conditions exist within the marke t such that competitive harm could occur should “inputs to equations” data elements be relea sed to the public. Section 2.0 summarizes the connection between market structure and the potenti al for information to cause competitive harm. Section 3.0 presents the process used for the assessment. Section 4.0 presents the results of the market structure assessment for each subpart ev aluated. Section 5.0 presents a summary of the overall results of this analysis.

2.0 Importance of Market Structure

Market structure affects firms’ ability to use info rmation about other firms in their market. Market structure is defined in terms of the number of firms supplying a commodity in the market, and the degree of control that individual f irms have over the prices they obtain for their products. The market, in turn, is defined in terms of the commodity marketed and the geographic scope of the market.

Competitive markets are characterized by many suppl iers and products that are identical or nearly identical, in terms of product characteristi cs that users value. In such markets, firms are “price takers”; that is, they are unable to influen ce the market price, and must determine their profit-maximizing production level as a function of the price set by the market. In such markets, strategic behavior is not possible because there ar e too many competitors, making it impossible for them to make decisions based on their competito rs’ actions and thereby affect market price.

Thus, for firms to be able to use information eithe r to cause competitive harm or to coordinate their pricing with competitors, the number of firms in the market must be small enough that firms can identify their competitors and identify c ritical information about their competitors’ operations. Markets with a relatively small number of firms are termed “concentrated.”

In the following section, we describe methods for a ssessing whether markets are concentrated. We then examine several sectors covered by the GHGR P, to determine their level of concentration.

3.0 Process for Assessing Market Structures and Pot ential for Competitive Harm

Economists assess market concentration using measur es that characterize the share of the market served by the largest firms. Specific tools used in clude the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI). For a given market, the HHI is calculated by squari ng the market share of each firm competing in the market, then summing the squared shares.

## 4 

## HHI = Σ i 

## s i 2 

## , where s i 

## = the market share of the i th 

## firm.

Potential values of the HHI range from near zero (i f each of the top 50 firms has one-50th of the output of the group (50*(1/50^2)), to 10,000, if on e firm has 100% of the value (100^2=10,000). The HHI reflects both the number of firms in the ma rket and the relative size of the firms, and assumes larger values (1) the smaller the number of firms in the market and (2) the greater the disparity in size between the firms. The U.S. Depar tment of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) 2 , 3 

## use the HHI to identify markets where there are po tential anti-trust concerns. They consider markets with HHI below 1,00 0 to be unconcentrated; markets with HHI between 1,000 and 1,800 to be moderately concentrat ed, and markets with HHI above 1,800 to be highly concentrated. The Census Bureau computes and publishes HHI for the manufacturing sectors, defined using North American Industry Clas sification System codes or NAICS codes. 4



## Economists define markets at the product or process level because customers make purchasing decisions for specific products or services. While identifying a concentrated or moderately concentrated NAICS is sufficient to identify subpar ts in which facilities are aware of their competitors, and thus subparts for which revealing sensitive information would have the potential to lead to competitive harm, it is not th e only indicator that a market may have the potential to lead to competitive harm should sensit ive information be released. Some sectors (defined at the 6-digit NAICS code level) that are not concentrated at the national sector level may produce some products for which there are suffi ciently few firms producing the product that they are aware of each other’s operations and may b ehave strategically. In these cases, publication of some data could result in either red uced competition or competitive harm. Similarly, some products are traded in regional, ra ther than national markets; for these, even if the sector does not appear concentrated or moderate ly concentrated at the national level based upon its HHI, regional markets, which have fewer fi rms on the supply side compared to the national sector, may be concentrated. In addition, some NAICS may include multiple industry sectors, only one of which is covered by a subpart. If this is the case, the industry sector may have concentrated or moderately concentrated market s even if the overall NAICS is not concentrated or moderately concentrated. As a resul t, for subparts for which the national-level NAICS assessment indicates that the sector may be u nconcentrated, the EPA performed additional assessments.

Thus, the EPA’s analysis followed a tiered approach :

1. For each subpart, the EPA examined associated NAICS codes to determine if the entire NAICS is concentrated or moderately concentrated at the national level.

## 2. If multiple NAICS are associated with a subpart, an d not all NAICS are in the same concentration category, the EPA determined whether a majority of the facilities reported concentrated or moderately concentrated NAICS.

3. If all the national NAICS associated with a subpart are unconcentrated, or a majority of facilities report under unconcentrated NAICS, the E PA determined whether:

a. The markets for the goods produced by firms in the subpart are regional, or

b. The NAICS is broader than the affected market, or t here are sub-sector markets within a sector, such as markets for specialty prod ucts.

If the EPA found that either of the criteria under the third tier above is true for a subpart, the EPA examined the market itself (either regional or sub-sector/product-specific) to determine if it is concentrated or moderately concentrated. If the EPA found that none of the above criteria is true for a subpart, the EPA determined that the mar ket is unconcentrated, and that the risk of competitive harm or diminished competition resultin g from the release of “inputs to equations” data elements for the subpart would be minimal. If the EPA found that any of the above criteria is true for a subpart, the EPA determined that the market is concentrated, such that the firms subject to the subpart are likely able to identify their competitors. For each such subpart, the EPA proceeded to evaluate each “inputs to equations” da ta element within the subpart to determine if its release would be likely to cause competitive ha rm. Refer to Part 2 of this memorandum for this analysis.

For three of the subparts, subparts C (Combustion), II (Industrial Wastewater Treatment), and TT (Industrial Landfills), the subparts represent a pr ocess that may take place at facilities in a number of industry sectors. Another subpart, subpar t U (Miscellaneous Uses of Carbonates), also includes a variety of industry sectors. The markets in which these facilities compete, and for which concentration must be assessed, are the marke ts for the goods or services they produce. To evaluate the concentration in these markets, theref ore, the EPA identified the NAICS codes for the industry sectors reported by these facilities, and examined their concentration.

For sectors that did not have manufacturing NAICS c odes, subparts W (Petroleum and Natural Gas Systems) and CC (Soda Ash), HHI values were not available. As a result, the EPA conducted a qualitative analysis of the market stru cture.
4.0 Results of Analysis

The EPA calculated HHI values using NAICS codes rep orted by facilities for reporting year 2011. For the 27 subparts for which this analysis w as conducted, the EPA identified 296 unique NAICS codes that facilities reported. Of these 296, 200 are manufacturing sector NAICS codes, for which HHI information is compiled by the Census Bureau. Subparts CC and W 5 

## did not have

## manufacturing NAICS reported, and thus HHI values w ere not available. As a result, for these subparts, the EPA conducted a qualitative analysis.

Section 4.1 presents the results of the analysis of concentration at the national sector (NAICS code) level. Section 4.2 presents the results of th e analysis of concentration at the regional, product, or process level. Section 4.3 presents the results of the analysis of subparts representing processes from many Sectors (i.e., subparts C, U, I I, and TT). Section 4.4 presents the results of the analysis of non-manufacturing Sectors (i.e., su bparts W and CC).

4.1 Analysis of Concentration at the National Secto r (NAICS-Code) Level To begin its assessment of the potential for the re lease of the “inputs to equations” data elements to lead to reduced competition or competitive harm, the EPA determined the level of sector concentration at the national NAICS code level. If the EPA determined that the NAICS code identified by a majority of firms in a subpart is c oncentrated or moderately concentrated at the national NAICS code level, the EPA concluded that t he firms in the subpart are likely are aware of each other’s actions. The EPA focused its assess ment on the 200 manufacturing sector NAICS codes associated with GHG reporting facilities.

Appendix A lists concentration ratios for the 6-dig it NAICS codes cited by facilities, as well as values of the HHI published by the U.S. Census Bure au for affected manufacturing NAICS codes. In addition, Appendix A presents information about the number of reporting facilities in a subpart that identified each NAICS. This informatio n allowed the EPA to identify which NAICS codes within a subpart represent the majority of re porting facilities. 6



## At the subpart level, the EPA considered a subpart to be associated with concentrated or moderately concentrated markets if a majority of th e firms reporting under that subpart identified themselves with NAICS codes that are concentrated o r moderately concentrated. Recognizing that it is actually the market or the sector that i s concentrated, for convenience throughout the rest of this document, the EPA refers to such subpa rts as concentrated or moderately concentrated. Using this criterion, the EPA found t hat the following subparts are at least moderately concentrated based on the NAICS codes as sociated with them: subparts F, G, L, N, O, S, V, Z, AA, BB, and EE. As a result, the EPA fu rther evaluated these subparts by examining individual data elements to determine if harm would be likely to occur. Refer to the Part 2 of this memorandum for this evaluation.

4.2 Analysis of Concentration at the Regional, Prod uct, or Process Level

For sectors for which the Census Bureau data indica te HHI in the unconcentrated range, the EPA undertook further analysis. The markets for the goo ds they produce were examined to determine if the markets for some or all of the goods are con centrated within a particular NAICS, or if the

## 7



## goods are traded in regional markets, which would h ave fewer firms than the national markets and thus are more likely to be concentrated; see th e analysis below.

Subpart E: Adipic Acid Producers . Production of adipic acid falls under NAICS 32519 9, All Other Basic Inorganic Chemical Manufacturing. This is a very broad NAICS code, encompassing production of many different inorganic chemicals; adipic acid production is a small subset of the overall NAICS. Thus, the EPA ex amined adipic acid producers specifically, rather than relying on a NAICS-level assessment. Th ree facilities reported under subpart E for reporting year 2011. Even without firm-level data, the HHI is useful because with only three plants, the lowest value the HHI could have is 3,26 7. 7 

## Because this source category does not have a threshold for applicability, all adipic acid producers in the U.S. are reporting under the GHGRP. Thus, the EPA concluded that the market for adipic acid is concentrated at the national level. As a result, the EPA further evaluated the “ inputs to equations” data elements in subpart E by examining individual data elements to determine if harm would be likely to occur. Refer to Part 2 of this memorandum for this evaluation.

Subpart H: Portland Cement Sector . Subpart H is the Portland cement industry. Nation ally, the HHI for the cement industry is 609.9; the four larg est firms produce 40.8% of value of shipments, according to the 2007 Economic Census. I n addition, Appendix 1 shows that the NAICS codes reported by GHGRP facilities in 2011 ar e unconcentrated. Therefore, the EPA proceeded to assess whether regional markets are co ncentrated.

High cement transportation cost relative to product value leads to regional cement markets with a small number of competing firms. In previous analys es supporting the EPA rulemaking, the cement industry has been modeled as regional, and i mperfectly competitive. 8 

## That is, market concentration within a regional market is sufficien tly high that firms are aware of competitors. For example, this analysis identified 20 regional m arkets for gray cement (a subset of this sector), with the number of plants in each market r anging from one to nine; 9 

## such markets are clearly concentrated at the regional level.

In such markets, firms may have the ability to infl uence market prices by their production choices. In addition, firms are more likely to beha ve strategically based on their knowledge of other (competing) producers’ behavior. In addition, they would be aware of their competitors’ identity and interested in production and market in formation about their competitors. It is important to note that facilities in the cement ind ustry may produce a variety of cement products. Some cement products are homogeneous (e.g., gray ce ment) and are traded in regional markets;

7 

### Assuming each firm has an equal one-third share o f the market results in an HHI of 3,267 (3 x 33 2 

### ). In fact, the threshold of 1,000 for moderately concentrated markets translate s to a minimum of 10 firms. 8

## As a result of these assessments, the EPA concluded that the structure of the markets that exist within this source category warrants further evalua tion of the “inputs to equations” data elements in subpart H. Therefore, the EPA further evaluated the “inputs to equations” data elements by examining each individual data element to determine if harm would be likely to occur. Refer to Part 2 of this memorandum for this evaluation.

Subpart K: Ferroalloys . According to the 2010 Statistics of U.S. Business es, 11 

## there are 19 firms nationwide that produce ferroalloys. Of the 10 firm s reporting under subpart K, nine selected NAICS 331112, for which no HHI information is avail able from the Census. As a result, we conducted a qualitative assessment of the market st ructure. Firms in an industry with only 19 firms would be aware of their competitors. In addit ion, if a sector that has 19 firms nationwide includes a few firms with relatively large market s hare (as opposed to a sector where all firms are similar in size, and each has roughly a 1/19 share of the market), the sector is likely to be concentrated. As a result, the EPA concluded that t he structure of the market that exists within this source category warrants further evaluation of the “inputs to equations” in subpart K. Therefore, the EPA further evaluated the “inputs to equations” data elements by examining each individual data element to determine if harm would be likely to occur. Refer to Part 2 of this memorandum for this evaluation.

Subpart P: Hydrogen Production . Most hydrogen is produced at petroleum refineries and ammonia production facilities, generally for captiv e use. Because these sectors are considered at least moderately concentrated (see discussion for s ubpart Y, below), we concluded that the structure of the markets that exist within this sou rce category warrants further evaluation of the “inputs to equations” data elements in subpart P. T herefore, the EPA further evaluated the “inputs to equations” data elements by examining ea ch individual data element to determine if harm would be likely to occur. Refer to Part 2 of t his memorandum for this evaluation.

Subpart Q: Iron and Steel Sector. The EPA assessed the market structure of the iron and s teel sector, using HHI data from the Census Bureau and o ther information. Steel production is generally characterized by economies of scale, resu lting in markets dominated by a few large firms. Economies of scale favor large furnaces (hig h capital investment costs) and pose entry barriers. High transportation cost relative to prod uct value is associated with regional steel markets with a small number of competing firms. As a result, firms may have the ability to influence market prices by their production choices . In addition, firms are more likely to behave strategically based on their knowledge of other (co mpeting) producers’ behavior. Nationally, the

See Appen dix A of the 2009 RIA for list of plants in each ce ment market in 2005. 11

## majority of facilities reporting under this source category had unconcentrated NAICS codes. For the reasons mentioned above, the national NAICS-lev el assessment may be misleading. Some steel products are homogeneous and are traded in re gional markets; others represent niche products with relatively few firms, serving differe nt markets (possibly different geographic dimensions). Both regional markets and niche market s have relatively small numbers of producers, indicating at least moderate market conc entration.

The EPA computed HHI at the process, region, and pa rent company levels, using data from the American Iron and Steel Institute. The American Iro n and Steel Institute provides limited steel production and process data, available on its websi te. 12 

## The data show a total of almost 124 million tons of steel produced, 73 million tons in EAFs and 50 million tons in basic oxygen furnaces (BOFs). The EPA constructed HHI values usi ng these production data, disaggregating by state, parent company, and process. The results indicated that there are 116 facilities located in 31 states, and production is not concentrated na tionally, as indicated by relatively low HHI values. However, when data are grouped by state or parent company, the HHI values show at least moderate concentration, with the exception of EAFs, which are unconcentrated even at the state level. As a result, when the EPA accounted for the distinc tions of region, parent company ownership, and steelmaking process, the EPA conclud ed that the structure of the markets that exists within this source category warrants further evaluation of the “inputs to equations” data elements in subpart Q. Therefore, the EPA further e valuated the “inputs to equations” data elements by examining each individual data element to determine if harm would be likely to occur. Refer to Part 2 of this memorandum for this evaluation.

Subparts R (Lead Smelting) and GG (Zinc Smelting). The EPA determined that markets served by firms reporting under subparts R and GG are conc entrated at the national level. Both subpart R (lead smelting) and subpart GG (zinc smelting) fa ll under NAICS 331410, Nonferrous Metal (except Aluminum) Smelting and Refining. In additio n to lead and zinc, many other nonferrous metals are included under NAICS 331410. Thus, the E PA examined the markets for lead and zinc individually. For subpart R, there is only one primary lead smelter, and seven firms with 14 secondary smelters nationwide (USGS, 2010a). For su bpart GG, there is only one primary zinc smelter and two secondary smelters nationwide (USGS , 2010b). Thus, firms in both of these subparts produce commodities whose markets are conc entrated nationally. As a result, the EPA concluded that the structure of the markets that ex ist within these source categories warrants further evaluation of the “inputs to equations” dat a elements. Therefore, the EPA further evaluated the “inputs to equations” data elements b y examining each individual data element to determine if harm would be likely to occur. Refer t o Part 2 of this memorandum for this evaluation.

Subpart X: Petrochemicals . In 2011, 64 petrochemical manufacturing facilitie s identified 14 NAICS codes. Of these, two NAICS, identified by 19 facilities, are concentrated based on their

12 

### http://www.steel.org/en/Making%20Steel/Where%20Its% 20Made.aspx

## 10



## HHI values. Facilities within this subpart produce one of six products: carbon black, methane, acrylonitrile, ethylene, ethylene oxide, and ethyle ne dichloride. The EPA examined the markets for these products, and found that none of them had more than 17 firms, and most had 10 or fewer. 13 

## As a result, the EPA concluded that the structure of the markets that exist within this source category warrants further evaluation of the “inputs to equations” data elements in subpart X. Therefore, the EPA further evaluated the “inputs to equations” data elements by examining each individual data element to determine if harm w ould be likely to occur. Refer to Part 2 of this memorandum for this evaluation.

Subpart Y: Petroleum Refinery Sector . There are two types of barriers to entry facing f irms wanting to enter the refining industry. First, ther e are significant economies of scale in refinery operations, so firms would need to start a fairly l arge-scale operation or they would face higher unit costs than their competitors. Second, legal ba rriers may also present obstacles (e.g., patented processes).

Nationally, the HHI for the refinery industry is 80 7; the four largest firms produce 47.5% of the value of shipments, according to the 2007 Economic Census. While 807 is not considered concentrated, the industry has become more concentr ated over time, even when considered nation-wide (the HHI in 1996 was 412, in 2000 the H HI was 611, and in 2007 it was 807). Concentration has occurred through mergers, which h as reduced the number of refinery companies in the U.S. Examining HHIs by the five PA DDs (Petroleum Administrative Districts for Defense,” 14 

## the Federal Trade Commission 15 

## found that PADD V (the West Coast including Alaska and Hawaii) was moderately concentrated (HHI =1,246 in 2003).

Individual petroleum products are relatively homoge neous, although different firms produce a different mix of products, and some produce special ty products for which there are few other producers. The U.S. Department of Energy collects d ata on refineries in a petroleum supply survey, which is published as an annual Petroleum C apacity Report. 16 

## The EPA reviewed the latest data (2012) containing 31 separate products and processes at 95 different facilities owned by 63 different firms. To better characterize the p etroleum market, the EPA analyzed these data at the product/process level, applying the HHI meas ure to test for market concentration. The result of calculating the HHI at the product/proces s level for petroleum refineries shows that activity for several key products/processes is at l east moderately concentrated. The data include capacity data for three thermal cracking processes (visbreaking, fluid coking, other), and together there are only nine facilities nationwide with this capability (HHI = 5,568, 2,463, and 10,000 respectively). Similarly, desulfurization and catal ytic hydrocracking are processes where there is

## at least moderate concentration (HHI 1,023 and 5,10 9, respectively). Additionally, production of isooctane (isomerization) is concentrated with a HH I of 7,813. Overall, of the 31 products/processes captured in the DOE data, seven are at least moderately concentrated.

Because the petroleum refinery industry is moderate ly concentrated in PADD V and because the markets for some petroleum products were at least m oderately concentrated, the EPA concluded that the structure of the markets that exist within this source category warrants further evaluation of the “inputs to equations” data elements in subpa rt Y. Therefore, the EPA further evaluated the “inputs to equations” data elements by examining ea ch individual data element to determine if harm would be likely to occur. Refer to Part 2 of t his memorandum for this evaluation.

4.3 Analysis of Subparts Representing Processes fro m Many Sectors Subparts C, II, TT, and U have reporters from a lar ge number of sectors. As opposed to many of the other source categories reporting under the GHG RP, these source categories are not defined by the types of products manufactured, or produced, at the facility. Instead, these subparts are defined by production processes or waste management processes (C, II, and TT) or inputs used (U). As a result, it is not possible to make a dete rmination based on the subpart as a whole. Instead, whether information related to these sourc e categories has the potential to cause competitive harm depends on the concentration of th e markets in which the facilities sell their products rather than on the total number of facilit ies reporting under each source category. Thus, the EPA determined that it would be necessary to id entify the markets affected and examine their market structure.

For these subparts, the EPA was able to conduct the first step of the evaluation, to examine the national-level HHI for the NAICS codes reported by facilities. However, for the NAICS codes where the national level 6-digit NAICS indicated un concentrated HHIs, EPA did not proceed with evaluating each of the NAICS codes to determin e whether regional or product-specific concentration occurred. Because these facilities co me from a wide variety of sectors for which the EPA does not have specific information beyond t he 6-digit NAICS code provided, and because many of the NAICS reported for these sector s are not manufacturing NAICS codes, further analysis of each of these sectors would be resource-intensive, and would be likely to have a large uncertainty without obtaining additional in formation from the facilities on the specific markets in which these facilities operate.

A summary of the results for the HHIs computed for these subparts is provided, by subpart, in Table 1. Refer to Appendix A for a complete list of the HHIs for NAICS codes reported by these facilities. The EPA’s analysis of HHIs for manufact uring NAICS codes listed by facilities in these subparts shows that some of the affected mark ets for goods produced by facilities in each of these subparts are concentrated or moderately co ncentrated. For these facilities, therefore, publishing the information contained in the “inputs to equations” data elements could potentially cause competitive harm or reduce competition. Due t o the limitations of the market structure analysis for these subparts, and because the result s of the analysis demonstrate that some of the

## 12



## facilities that report under these subparts are in sectors that are at least moderately concentrated at the national level, the EPA proceeded to evaluat e the individual data elements to determine if harm would likely occur (refer to Part 2 of this me morandum).

### The number of facility reports may exceed the numbe r of facilities, because some facilities report mul tiple NAICS codes.

b 

### Includes only facility reports of NAICS codes with non-missing HHI values. 

## 4.4 Analysis of Non-Manufacturing Sectors

As shown in Appendix A, HHIs were not available for subpart W 17 

## (Petroleum and Natural Gas) and subpart CC (soda ash manufacturing). As a resul t, a qualitative analysis of the market structures that exist within these source categorie s was conducted.

Subpart W: Petroleum and Natural Gas. Subpart W includes facilities operating in eight re lated segments of the petroleum and natural gas sector. B ecause subpart W is not a manufacturing sector, HHIs were not available for the vast majori ty of facilities. As a result, the EPA conducted a qualitative analysis of the segments within this sector.
For each segment, the EPA examined the market struc ture to determine if revelation of “inputs to equations” data elements by firms in that segment h ad the potential to cause competitive harm or reduce competition. For source categories that are in the manufacturing sector, as shown in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 of this memorandum, the EPA ex amined concentration at the national level,

17 

### Of the 1,549 facilities that reported under subpa rt W in 2011, three facilities reported manufacturi ng NAICS codes for which HHIs are available and were moderately concentrated . Of these, one facility with a NAICS of 325181 (al kalies and chlorine manufacturing) reported a small amount of emissions under LNG storage. EPA determined that this LNG st orage process is separable from the remainder of the facility and is unrelated to the alkalies and chlorine manufacturi ng market. EPA believes that the NAICS for the remaining two facilities wer e reported in error.

## 13



## as well as at the regional, product, or process lev el. Because of the unique nature of the subpart W source category with a relatively large number of producers selling a relatively homogeneous product, the EPA determined that it would not be ap propriate to assess the market structure at the product or process level. As a result, the EPA cons idered the market structure of each segment as well as the types of information that are collected through this source category. The EPA’s findings for each subpart W segment are reported be low.

Onshore Petroleum and Natural Gas Production 

## The onshore petroleum and natural gas production se gment covers emissions related to onshore production wellheads. The market structure for petroleum and natural gas was considered separately for this segment. Onshore pet roleum production is a regionally concentrated market, with wells located in fixed ge ological formations. Decisions on where to drill wells may be based on proprietary informat ion during the early development of a formation when lease prices have not stabilized and operators are taking risks by drilling explorations wells in formations that do not have p roven production records. After several wells have been drilled in an area, information abo ut production becomes publically available and the advantage incurred by the operato r drilling exploration wells is lost. However, once a well has been drilled, decisions to produce are based on market prices and the ability to control flow from the well. Although this could pose a potential data sensitivity with respect to exploration wells, for most explora tory wells this issue is addressed by the fact that onshore production data is reported at a sub-basin level, as defined by county boundaries, and which is a large enough scale that disclosure of the data collected under subpart W would not reveal any proprietary informat ion about the facility or cost to do business. However, for two specific types of explor atory wells, delineation wells and wildcat wells, in specific cases discussed below, early pub lic disclosure of six “inputs to equations” data elements could reveal the productivity of the wells and therefore result in loss of investment value. The six “inputs to equations” dat a elements are:

• For gas well completions or workovers with hydrauli c fracturing, the measured flow rate of backflow during well completion (40 CFR 98. 236(c)(6)(i)(B));

• For gas well completions or workovers with hydrauli c fracturing, the measured flow rate of backflow during well workover (40 CFR 98.23 6 (c)(6)(i)(D));

• For gas well completions or workovers with hydrauli c fracturing, the total number of days of backflow from all wells during completions (40 CFR 98.236 (c)(6)(i)(E));

• For gas well completions or workovers with hydrauli c fracturing, the total number of days of backflow from all wells during workovers (4 0 CFR 98.236 (c)(6)(i)(F));

• For onshore production storage tanks, the total vol ume of oil from all wellhead separators sent to tank(s) in barrels per year (40 CFR 98.236(c)(8)(i)(F)); and

## 14



## • For onshore production storage tanks, the total vol ume of sales oil from all wells in barrels per year (40 CFR 98.236(c)(8)(ii)(A)).

The specific cases for which early public disclosur e of these six “inputs to equations” data elements could reveal the productivity of the wells and result in loss of investment value are as follows:

• For gas well completions or workovers with hydrauli c fracturing, where wildcat wells and/or delineation wells are the only wells in a su b-basin that can be used for the measurement. These measurements require the use of “representative” wells. If wildcat and/or delineation wells are the only wells that can be used for measurement of these data, then the inputs could reveal informa tion on the productivity of the well.

• For onshore production storage tanks, where wildcat wells and/or delineation wells are the only wells in a sub-basin. If wildcat wells and/or delineation wells are the only wells in a sub-basin, then the volumes reported for these data elements would represent volumes of wildcat wells and/or explorato ry wells exclusively, which could reveal information on the productivity of the well.

Delaying reporting of these data for two reporting years would be sufficient time for reporters to thoroughly conduct an assessment of th e well, after which the data could be reported and made publicly available. Besides the n eed for a two-year delay for the six data elements associated with exploratory wells in the s pecific cases described above, the likelihood of harm can be characterized for all inf ormation collected for this segment, and the EPA did not proceed to evaluate each “input to equa tion” data element in this segment.

The onshore natural gas production market overlaps many of the geological formations of petroleum production. Furthermore, the market itsel f is structured the same, with a large number of operators within each formation. Like ons hore oil production, disclosure of data for onshore natural gas production at the sub-basin level would also not reveal any proprietary information about the facility or cost to do business, except for the specific case described earlier. Aside from the specific case des cribed earlier, the likelihood of harm can be characterized for all information collected for this segment, and the EPA did not proceed to evaluate each “input to equation” data element i n this segment.

Offshore Petroleum and Natural Gas Production 

## Offshore petroleum and natural gas production inclu des emissions from offshore production platforms and does not include emissions from drill ing and exploration that is not associated with production platforms. The products created on offshore production platforms are delivered into the same market as onshore petroleum and natural gas production, which is a competitive market. The reported data are specific to a latitude and longitude as identified by the facility, but the data reported in offshore pro duction do not include information specific to the formations from which hydrocarbons are being extracted and only information

## 15



## concerning the operations of the platform is report ed. The operational information does not include information that the operator will find pro prietary to the well; as a result, the information reported under offshore petroleum and n atural gas production would not reveal any proprietary information about the facility or c ost to do business. As the likelihood of harm can be characterized for all information colle cted for this segment, the EPA did not proceed to evaluate each “input to equation” data e lement in this segment.

Natural Gas Processing 

## Natural gas processors are regionally located close to production wellheads. The market itself is large, with roughly 500 firms. These firms are l ocated in close proximity to given natural gas plays. However, we do not believe that this reg ional concentration would pose data sensitivity issues because the “inputs to equations ” data elements in this segment would not reveal any proprietary information about the facili ty, cost of natural gas, or cost to do business. As the likelihood of harm can be characte rized for all information collected for this segment, the EPA did not proceed to evaluate each “ input to equation” data element in this segment.

Natural Gas Transmission Compression 

## Natural gas transmission compression operators tran sport natural gas from processors to end users. Firms are regionally concentrated, having co ntrol over particular segments of the pipeline infrastructure. Although the number of fir ms and the regional concentration could pose data sensitivity issues, we do not believe thi s is an issue for three reasons: (1) there are few technological secrets related to pipeline const ruction and natural gas transmission, and technological innovation is mainly in the area of p ipeline security; (2) the rate charged for transport is highly regulated, preventing use of th e data for strategic price competition; and (3) once pipeline and compression are built in a gi ven corridor, there is little incentive for a competitor to build additional pipeline and compres sion along the same route. As a result, the “inputs to equations” data elements in this segment would not reveal any proprietary information about the facility or cost to do busine ss. As the likelihood of harm can be characterized for all information collected for thi s segment, the EPA did not proceed to evaluate each “input to equation” data element in t his segment.

Natural Gas Distribution 

## Natural gas distributers own and operate the distri bution mains and services and function as the middle man between transmission lines and end-u sers. This market is regionally located, with distributers having exclusive access to specif ic cities and other localities. Both publicly and privately owned companies are highly regulated, unable to charge market-based rates for service. The regulation by government and the monop oly rights distributors hold over given regions prevent competitors’ use of the data for st rategic purposes. As a result, the “inputs to equations” data elements in this segment would not reveal any proprietary information about the facility or cost to do business. As the likelih ood of harm can be characterized for all

## 16



## information collected for this segment, the EPA did not proceed to evaluate each “input to equation” data element in this segment.

Underground Natural Gas Storage 

## Underground natural gas storage is used to smooth o ut volatility in consumption and use of natural gas. The market is regional; facilities are located either near major distribution centers or near oil and gas fields. Even with the regional market structure, competitors are not known to engage in strategic competition in building stor age facilities. First, facilities are built in response to other upstream factors, such as increas ed gas supply coming to distributors, not to undermine other competitors. Second, storage fir ms are constrained by the geographical and geological requirements needed for underground storage, preventing firms from moving in and increasing their market share. Finally, stor age technology is widely known and not used to garner a competitive advantage. As a result , the “inputs to equations” data elements in this segment would not reveal any proprietary in formation about the facility or cost to do business. As the likelihood of harm can be characte rized for all information collected for this segment, the EPA did not proceed to evaluate each “ input to equation” data element in this segment.

Liquefied Natural Gas Storage 

## Liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage operates much t he same as underground natural gas storage, with storage used to smooth volatility rel ated to consumption. The small size of the LNG storage market could create the possibilities f or disruptive competitive undercutting; however, we determined that this is unlikely for th e following two reasons. First, LNG storage is primarily owned by highly regulated dist ributors, preventing competitive firms from undercutting the market. Second, LNG storage o ccurs in response to increase supply upstream or decreased demand downstream, and is not responsive to cost advantages. As a result, the “inputs to equations” data elements in this segment would not reveal any proprietary information about the facility or cost to do business. As the likelihood of harm can be characterized for all information collected for this segment, the EPA did not proceed to evaluate each “input to equation” data element i n this segment.

Liquefied Natural Gas Import/Export 

## Currently the U.S. has only 12 LNG import terminals and one LNG export terminal. There are nine onshore import terminals and three offshor e import terminals. LNG technology is not proprietary. The technology is relatively simpl e and has been around for many years. The market is regional and small, with import terminals located along the Gulf and East Coasts. Although there are a small number of facilities tha t import and/or export LNG, they may be viewed as a part of the larger natural gas supply s ector that is a much larger market. The product delivered or consumed by LNG import/export is identical to the product generated in onshore and offshore natural gas production. Functi onally, import and export terminals may be considered as a large producer or consumer of na tural gas. Import and export terminals are

## 17



## generally located in regions of supply restrictions or excess to maximize price margins. However, the trading prices of natural gas are publ ically available and the building of new import and export terminals is limited by capital a nd permitting, not by market structure. Therefore, release of information about import/expo rt terminals would not change the operations of other firms in the market. As a resul t, the “inputs to equations” data elements in this segment would not reveal any proprietary infor mation about the facility or cost to do business. As the likelihood of harm can be characte rized for all information collected for this segment, the EPA did not proceed to evaluate each “ input to equation” data element in this segment.
In summary, for all of the industry segments within subpart W, with the exception of the specific cases described above for wildcat wells and delinea tion wells, either the data are reported at a level of geographical aggregation that protects ind ividual well information, or the markets in which the affected firms operate are structured in ways that disclosure of “inputs to equations” data elements would not be likely to cause competit ive harm. For the wildcat wells and delineation wells, in the specific cases described above, early public disclosure of seven “inputs to equations” data elements could reveal the produc tivity of the wells and result in loss of investment value. In those cases, reporting of thes e data for two reporting years would be adequate to safeguard sensitive information, after which the data could be reported and made publicly available. As a result, the EPA did not fu rther evaluate the “inputs to equations” data elements in subpart W.

Subpart CC: Soda Ash . The four facilities reporting under subpart CC in 2011 identified NAICS 212391, Potash, Soda, and Borate Mineral Mining. Th is is not a manufacturing NAICS, so HHI is not published for it. However, there are only 18 firms in this sector nationwide. 18 

## If a sector that has 18 firms nationwide includes a few firms w ith relatively large market share (as opposed to a sector where all firms are similar in size, an d each has roughly 1/18 share of the market), it is likely to be concentrated. As a result, the EPA con cluded that the structure of the markets that exist within this source category warrants further evaluation of the “inputs to equations” data elements in subpart CC. Therefore, the EPA further evaluated the “inputs to equations” data elements by examining each individual data element to determine if harm would be likely to occur. Refer to Part 2 of this memorandum for this evaluation.

5.0 Summary

In this part, the EPA examined the market structure s for subparts with “inputs to equations” data elements to determine whether conditions exist with in the market structure such that release of these data could result in competitive harm. The EP A determined that such conditions exist within the market structures for all of the subpart s examined except for subpart W, for which there are specific cases described in Section 4.0 o f this document where early public disclosure

## of six “inputs to equations” data elements could re veal the productivity of wildcat wells and delineation wells and result in loss of investment value. In those cases, delaying reporting of these data for two reporting years would be adequat e to safeguard sensitive information, after which the data could be reported and made publicly available without disclosure concerns. As a result, the EPA did not further evaluate competitiv e harm for facilities reporting under subpart W. For the “inputs to equations” data elements in t he remaining 27 subparts examined, the EPA further evaluated the data elements by examining ea ch individual data element to determine if harm would be likely to occur. Refer to Part 2 of t his memorandum for this evaluation.

## 19



## Part Two: Evaluation of Individual Data Elements

1.0 Introduction

As discussed in Part 1 of this memorandum, the EPA determined that conditions exist within the market structures such that competitive harm could occur should certain types of information be released for all of the subparts examined in this m emorandum except for facilities reporting under subpart W. As a result, no further evaluation of competitive harm was conducted for this source category. The EPA further evaluated the rema ining “inputs to equations” data elements in 26 subparts by examining individual data elements t o determine if harm would be likely to occur.

2.0 Evaluation of Harm

Based on the EPA’s previous consideration of compet itive harm (see proposed CBI rule, 75 FR 39115–39116, July 7, 2010), the EPA’s previous cons ideration of comments received on the proposed CBI rule (see final CBI rule, 76 FR 30806, May 26, 2011), and the EPA’s more recent consideration of comments received on the Call for Information (75 FR 81366, December 27, 2010), the EPA identified certain types of data tha t would reveal information that likely cause competitive harm, if reported and publicly released . These data include:

• The quantity or composition of raw materials or pro ducts; or

• Process design, process performance and operation, and cost to do business.

Additionally, the EPA determined that many other “i nputs to equations” data elements, which alone would not reveal information that could cause competitive harm, would reveal the types of data specified above if known together with certain additional data elements (i.e., multiple reported “inputs to equations” data elements would be needed to back-calculate the types of data specified above).

Under this evaluation, each individual “inputs to e quations” data element was evaluated to determine whether it includes any of these types of data, as further discussed below. In all, 493 “inputs to equations” data elements (excluding “inp uts to equations” for facilities subject to subpart W) were reviewed according to the process d escribed in this section. Refer to Appendix B for results of the analysis for each of the 493 d ata elements.

2.1 Quantity and Composition of Raw Materials or Pr oducts

The EPA has determined in previous GHGRP actions th at publicly releasing facility-specific data on the quantity or composition of raw material s or products would likely cause competitive harm. In these previous actions, the EPA finalized CBI determinations for such data currently reported under Part 98 (e.g., production rates that are currently collected under Part 98, but not used to calculate GHG emissions). As further discus sed in the proposed CBI rule, disclosing a facility’s production or throughput data would be d etrimental to a firm’s competitiveness by revealing confidential process information and oper ational and marketing strategies, as follows:

## 20



## • Annual production quantities, used in conjunction w ith other publicly available data related to capacity, provide insight into a firm’s operational strengths and weaknesses. Competitors could determine at what percent capacit y a firm is operating, which can reveal information on the financial and competitive strength of the firm;

• Disclosing a facility’s production or throughput qu antities and product compositions could give competitors insight into a firm’s local and regional market conditions and expansion plans, enabling competitors to devise str ategies to prevent expansion and to steal market share in specific locations; and

• Disclosing a facility’s feedstock quantities and co mposition and reactants fed into particular processes at a facility could provide in sight into a facility’s operational strengths and weaknesses, expose a firm’s competiti ve and marketing strategies, or reveal a firm’s suppliers and sourcing strategies.

Refer to the preamble to the proposed CBI determina tions (75 FR 39115–39116, July 7, 2010) for a more detailed discussion on why reporting pro duction and raw material information would be likely to cause competitive harm.

Under this evaluation, we identified all “inputs to equations” data elements that require reporting of data related to the quantity or composition of r aw materials or products. We evaluated these data elements to identify any attributes in the dat a elements that would distinguish them as less likely to cause competitive harm if released than t hose data elements previously determined to be CBI (see reference above to previously proposed CBI determinations). We concluded that all such data elements identified under this analysis w ould be as likely to cause competitive harm as those previously identified.

Data elements determined to include a requirement t o report the quantity or composition of raw materials or products are identified in Appendix B.

2.2 Data Related to Process Design, Process Perfor mance and Operation, and Cost to Do Business

Based on a review of comments on the Call for Infor mation (75 FR 81366, December 27, 2010) and on previous actions under the GHGRP, the EPA ha s determined that data related to process design, process performance and operation, and cost to do business would reveal the following information:

• Disclosing process design information could be detr imental to a firm’s competitiveness by revealing the design efficiency of the unit, pro viding insight into the firm’s operational strengths and weaknesses (e.g., disclos ing the ratio of the maximum rate heat input capacity to the design-rated steam output cap acity of a combustion unit, not connected to the electric power grid, would disclos e the design efficiency of the unit);

• Disclosing process performance and operation inform ation could be detrimental to a firm’s competitiveness by revealing process efficie ncy, providing insight into a firm’s

## 21



## operational strengths and weaknesses (e.g., disclos ing an aluminum production facility’s cell performance would disclose current production efficiency);and

• Disclosing information related to the cost to do bu siness could be detrimental to a firm’s competitiveness by providing insight into a firm’s operational strengths and weaknesses (e.g., disclosing an HCFC production facility’s los s factor, which accounts for the loss of HCFC-22 upstream of a measurement, would reveal the amount of product that is lost).

Data elements determined to include a requirement t o report the type of information described above are identified in Appendix B.

2.3 Other Data That Would Likely Reveal the Types o f Data Specified Above If Certain Additional Data Are Also Known

An additional evaluation was conducted to determine whether each “inputs to equations” data element not related to the quantity or composition of raw materials or products (see section 2.1), in combination with currently reported data element s and other “inputs to equations” data elements, could be used to back-calculate the types of data specified in sections 2.1 and 2.2 (e.g., production quantity, cost to do business). For exam ple, for an adipic acid production facility, the abatement technology destruction efficiency, if rep orted alone, would not reveal any information that would likely cause harm; however, if reported together with the abatement utilization factor, emission factor and reported N 2 

## O emissions, it could be used to back-calculate an estimate of the mass of adipic acid produced, which is the type of data identified in section 2.1 of this memorandum. Data elements determined to reveal prop rietary information in this way are identified in Appendix B.

For any such data elements identified, the EPA also determined if such harm could be avoided by removing the reporting requirement for certain a dditional data elements. For example, if the abatement utilization factor were reported (as requ ired under §98.56(h)), together with annual
N 2 

## O emissions from nitric acid production (in §98.3(c )(4)) and the emission factor (in §98.56(j)(1)), and the destruction efficiency (in § 98.56(g)), these data together could be used to calculate the mass of adipic acid produced. However , if reporting of the emission factor were removed, the abatement utilization factor could be reported without revealing proprietary information about nitric acid production. Any such “inputs to equations” data elements are identified in Appendix B.

3.0 Summary

Based on the results of Part 1 and Part 2 of this m emorandum, the EPA proceeded to Step 3 of the evaluation for 25 19

1 In the May 26, 2011 final CBI determination notice (76 FR 30782), EPA grouped the direct-emitter data reporting elements into 11 data categories and assigned CBI determinations on eithe r a category or individual data elements basis. One of the categories established was “Emissions,” which contains all data elements that are emission values required to be reported by dire ct emitters under Part 98 (e.g., annual CO2e emissions, emissions by GHG and source categor y, emissions by GHG pollutant). All data elements w ithin this category were determined to be “emission data,” which under CAA section 114( c) are not entitled to confidential treatment. As a result, data elements that have been assigned to the “Emissions” category (refer to the final CBI rulemakings: May 26, 2011, 76 FR 30782; A ugust 13, 2012, 77 FR 48072; August 24, 2012, 77 FR 51477) are made publicly available on t he Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program website."
