Subject: Edits on Demographic Analysis (plus some additional edits)

Hi KC and Dave,

Attached are the edits on the demographic analysis.  We will fax over a hand drawn example of the table

suggested, although there is a verbal description in the attached redline.

Additionally, there are also other suggested edits outside of the demographic analysis.  We can plan to

discuss those today (initial questions) and on Friday.

Regards,

Cortney

Pages 90‐91  OSHA PEL Language

The maximum individual cancer risk and the maximum chronic non‐cancer risk estimated from this data

set were also compared to the maximum individual cancer risk and the maximum chronic non‐cancer

risk estimated from MACT‐allowable emissions for the three source categories.  NEW: Since OSHA

adopted a lower PEL for chromium VI in 2006, EPA expects that some portion of the facilities may have
reduced the atmospheric emissions of chromium VI in its efforts to reduce employee exposure.

Therefore, pre‐2006 data may overestimate the emissions from some individual plants.  Similarly, data

that predates the 1995 MACT regulation may overestimate emissions from some plants.  

Page 90 – Review of NAMF High Risk Facility Information

These 166 facilities now included in the 2005 NEI comprise approximately 9 percent of the estimated

1,770 facilities covered by the MACT standards, and include 63 hard chromium electroplating, 96

decorative chromium electroplating, and 7 chromium anodizing facilities.

Proposed Footnote to this Sentence:  EPA received provided updated emissions data from the National

Association of Metal Finishers showing lower emissions in approximately 15 plants that EPA had

identified as high risk plants.  Although EPA did not have time to revise its modeling based on this

document, this document is in the record for public review and comment.
