APPENDIX
B:
SUPPORTING
COST
DATA
OVERVIEW
EPA
estimated
a
reference
or
standard
quantity
for
each
costed
best
management
practice
(BMP)
that
could
be
applied
to
construction
erosion
and
sediment
controls
(ESCs)
(e.
g.,
621
feet
of
silt
fence
for
a
3­
acre
single­
family
residential
construction
site).
These
reference
quantities
were
set
to
serve
a
range
of
site
conditions
and
slopes
consistent
with
the
requirements
of
the
proposed
rule.
Reference
quantities
were
not
varied
between
ecoregions
but
were
varied
in
response
to
alternative
levels
of
management
(i.
e.,
regulatory
options
explored
by
EPA)
as
shown
in
Table
B­
1.
Note
that
only
where
values
in
Table
B­
1
differ
between
options
and
baseline
values
is
there
expected
to
be
a
change
in
the
cost
for
site
ESCs.

Reference
quantities
of
various
ESCs
(or
construction
controls)
are
listed
in
Tables
B­
2
through
B­
10,
along
with
unit
costing
and
the
assumptions
used
in
EPA's
compliance
cost
assessment.
Note
that
for
some
controls,
reference
quantities
are
given
in
terms
of
the
number
of
units
that
will
be
constructed
(i.
e.,
the
number
of
construction
entrances
anticipated
for
a
certain
size
site).
In
addition,
where
unit
costs
are
nonlinear
(i.
e.,
the
unit
cost
varies
with
the
size
of
the
unit),
both
a
design
quantity
and
a
number
of
units
per
site
size
class
are
required
to
estimate
ESC
compliance
costs.
An
example
of
this
is
sediment
basins,
where
the
total
volume
(the
site
size
in
acres
times
3,600
cubic
feet
per
acre)
is
apportioned
into
a
number
of
installations
(i.
e.,
a
70­
acre
site
is
estimated
to
have
2
installations).
This
process
helps
ensure
that
any
economies
of
scale
in
the
calculation
of
compliance
costs
are
reasonable.

National
BMP
costs
were
determined
using
the
following
three
equations
that
relate
site
size
class/
land
use
type
models
to
ESC
capital,
design,
and
operation
and
maintenance
costs.
Note
that
Table
B­
11
contains
the
regional
adjustment
factors
that
customize
cost
estimates
for
the
19
ecoregions
defined
by
EPA
to
make
its
analysis
more
representative
of
actual
conditions.

the

costing
methodology.
