ECONOMIC IMPACT OF QSHA PROPOSAL
Gentlemen:
As you know, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has recently proposed regulations for identifying, classifying and regulating suspect carcinogens (cancer-causing substances). The proposal, which has serious potential consequences for both manufacturers and users of chemicals and chemical-containing products, is one of the single most important documents published in recent years, for it is expected to be the basis for a national policy on carcinogens to which all federal agencies will subscribe.
The proposed regulations establish criteria for classifying substances and require regulatory consequences to flow automatically therefrom. The proposal authorizes OSHA to ban substances where there are "suitable11 substitutes and to require that exposures be reduced to the "lowest level feasible."
Industry, of course, collectively and individually recognizes its responsibility to provide workers with a safe workplace, free from recognized hazards, particularly known, human carcinogens. However, it is believed that the OSHA proposal will, because of its unscientific criteria, unfairly indict a substantial number of substances and that it is seriously deficient in other ways as a matter of science and policy. Further, the economic cost of the proposal to Industry is likely to be substantially out of proportion to any possible achievable benefits.
A broad-based industry committee the American Industrial Health Council, with which SOCMA is cooperating, has been formed to address the scientific, legal and economic questions raised by the proposal. This Council is urging, and we urge, that each of you file comments and/or participate at the scheduled hearing on the OSHA proposal. As many of you know, the sheer number of comments filed, particularly by small businesses, plays an important part in agency decision-making.
We recognize that many of you may not be able to address the complex scientific and legal issues raised by the OSHA proposal. However, we believe that each of you can, and should, at least address the economic impact of the proposal on your business or on particular products you make or use. Experience has shown that economic arguments made by industry, particularly small businesses, can also significantly impact agency decisions.

To assist you in addressing the economic questions, the industry committee has retained the consulting firm of Booz, Allen & Hamilton, Foster D. Snell Division, to prepare guidelines which will assist you in filing comments with OSHA and participating in the hearing, Enclosed for your use are Guidelines which summarize the key provisions of the OSHA proposal and focus the economic impact for you, Also enclosed is a set of forms to assist you In calculating the economic Impact, Instructions for use of the forms are contained in the Guidelines.
Also enclosed is a computer printout which attempts to both separate the major commercial chemicals from NIOSH's Tumorogenic Subfile and indicates EPA's ranking of the test results on which the listing was based.
We believe the enclosed materials will greatly expedite your understanding of the proposal and simplify the task of economic impact analysis. If you are not able, within the time frame allotted by OSHA, to precisely quantify the economic impact, less than precise or qualitative analyses should nonetheless be submitted to OSHA, focusing, perhaps, on job and foreign trade impacts of the proposal.
The industry committee has also asked Booz, Allen to prepare a broader economic impact study of the OSHA proposal. If you would like to cooperate in this effort for any of the products which you make or use, you should complete the enclosed forms and send photocopies to one of the individuals at Booz, Allen noted below as soon as available. Booz, Allen has executed a confidentiality agreement in which they have agreed to maintain the confidentiality of all the information they receive. No information will be related to a specific company without that company's approval, and access within Booz, Allen will be limited to authorized personnel.
Written comments to OSHA are due January 30, 1978. Persons who intend to appear at the public hearing on the proposal, scheduled to commence on April 4, 1978, are required to file a notice of intent to appear, and, if they expect to testify for more than 15 minutes, file their full testimony by January 30, 1978. OSHA may decide not to exclude from the rulemaking record submissions made after these dates, but you should nonetheless make every effort to meet these deadlines.
If you have any questions on the enclosed materials, you should feel free to contact either Ron Kensicki or Phil Gisser at Booz, Allen (201) 377-6700.
We appreciate your assistance and cooperation on this very important project.

I. INTRODUCTION
Puroese
A broad-based industry committee was formed to address the scientific, legal, and economic questions raised by regulations proposed by the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) for the identification, classification and regulation of suspect carcinogens (cancer causing substances^, hereinafter described as OSHA Generic Carcinogen Proposal. It has re tained Booz, Allan i Hamilton, roster D. Snell Division, to prepare these Guidelines and the enclosed forms.
The principal purpose of these materials is to assist you in analyzing the economic impact of the OSHA proposal on your company or on products you make or use. The attached materials are designed to facilitate your understanding of the OSHA proposal and focus your thinking on economic impact. You are urged to prepare and file comments with OSHA and/or to participate in the public hearing scheduled for the proposal using the enclosed materials as guides. Experience has shown that sound economic arguments, particularly for smaller businesses, can significantly impact agency decision.
The industry committee has also asked Booz Allen to prepare a broader economic impact analysis of the OSHA proposal. If you would like to cooperate in this effort, the enclosed forms should be completed and photocopies sent to Booz, Allen on a confidential basis, by early December.
Background On OSHA Proposal
In the Federal Register of October 4, 1977 (42 Fed. Reg. 54147), OSHA published its Generic Carcinogen Proposal. Abandoning its previous substance-by-substance approach to regulating chemical substances in the work place, OSHA, through these regulations, proposes to establish a vehicle and framework for future rulemakings which will enable it to move expeditiously. The regulations Bet forth criteria for determining whether a substance is a carcinogen, establish a classification scheme for suspect and known carcinogens and require certain regulatory actions to be taken following such classification. There are attached to the proposed regulations model standards to be used by OSHA as essentially fill-in-the-blank modules for standards on individual substances. Once adopted, the proposed regulations should lead to a flurry of regulatory activity, the focus of which will probably be a List of Suspect Carcinogens published by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSK), numbering in excess of 2400 substances, and which has been growing at the rate of 100 substances a month.
The regulations represent OSHA's proposed resolution of many complex scientific and legal issues. Once resolved in this rulemaking, those Issues may not be open to further question in subsequent rulemakings on individual substances. The criteria, classification scheme, and regulatory consequences in this proposal will apply to all subsequent OSKA rulemakings on suspect carcinogens. Indeed, given recent public pronounce ments on the need for cooperation and harmonious policies between federal agencies on toxic substances, the OSHA proposal may well form the basis for a national approach to similar regulations for all federal agencies.
The proposed regulations will establish criteria for classifying substances and require regulatory consequences to flow automatically therefrom. The proposal authorizes OSHA to ban substances where there are "suitable" substitutes and to require that exposure be reduced to the "lowest level feasible." These two terms are not defined by OSHA.
While the industry committee recognizes its collective and individual responsibility to provide workers with a safe workplace free from recognized hazards, particularly known carcinogens, it believes that the OSHA proposal might result in the improper classification of a substantial number of substances and that the proposal's economic costs might be out of proportion to its possible benefits.
Participation In Rulemaking
Written comments to OSHA are due January 9, 1978. Persons who intend to appear at the public hearing on the proposal, scheduled to commence on March 14, 1978, are required to file a notice of intent to appear, and, if they expect to testify for more than 15 minutes, file their full testimony by January 9, 1978. Although you should make every effort to meet these deadlines, we believe, although OSHA has not so stated, that it may decide not to exclude late submissions from its rulemaking record.
Written comments should be submitted in quadruplicate to:
Docket Office Docket No. H-090 Room S-6212 U.S Department of Labor 3rd Street s Constitution Avenue NW Washington, D.C. 20210

How To Use This Document
For Use 3y Your Company in Preparing Written Comments and/or Testimony
You will save time in this endeavor by following the steps described below.
Make copies of the forms in Appendix C, and keep a clear original. You may need multiple copies of some sections.
Select as many chemicals as you feel you can analyze
for internal case study from the ninety-nine chemicals
listed with their alternate names in Appendix A. These
chemicals, all of which appear on the NIOSH List of Suspect
Carcinogens,
are ones Booz Allen believes to be
economically significant. There may be other chemicals
on the NIOSH List which are not listed in Appendix A
but which may be significant to your company. You
should, therefore, carefully review the NIOSH list.
. Fill out this set of forms for each substance selected. If two of the substances are encountered in the same plant unit, one set of forms is sufficient.
. Aggregate the total compliance costs for each case
study substance, as shown on Form vi. The ratio of compliance costs to current costs, as well as the other ratios indicated, can be presented in your submission.
Submit written comments for the record (due January 9, 1973).
. If you intend to testify at the public hearing, notify OSHA of your intent to testify (due January 9, 1978).
If you intend to testify at the public hearing for more than 15 minutes, file full testimony (due January 9, 1978).
. Testify at public hearing commencing March 14, 1977.
. Retain file copies of all information collected and submissions made.
If You Elect To Participate In The Broader impact Study By Booz, Allen
If you elect to cooperate with the Booz, Allan study, please follow the procedure outlined below:
. Select two or three dissimilar ease study substances for analysis at your company.
. Inform either R. Kensicki or P. Gisser (201-377-6700, extension 260) at Booz, Allen that you are planning to analyze seLected case study substances at your company.
. Assign one individual responsible for getting the data and returning it. He will probably need the cooperation of plant and engineering people. For chemical producers, marketing people might provide some necessary inputs.

IX. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The forms in this package refer to the cost of compliance with OSHA's Identification, Classification and Regulation of Toxic Substances Posing a Potential Carcinogenic Risk. This form is organized to collect economic 5ata for each of the-products manufactured at your plants that may potentially be
affected by the proposed regulation of substances.
Substances for case study should be selected by your company from the following:
,,
. Economically Significant List -- In Appendix A substances are listed that are on the NIOSH Suspected Carcinogens list and judged to be economically significant on the basis of total CJ.S. production and the number of total employees associated with their manufacture or use or both. Your company may wish to select applicable substances from this list and present one or more case studies.
. other Substances -- In the NIOSH publication Suspected Carcinogens, 1976, over 2400 substances are listed that may be regulated under the proposed act. There may be other substances not listed in the NIOSH document that your company may want to study. The manufacture and use of these substances may have specific impact on your company.
For each of the case studies selected, one set of forms should be completed for each production plant at your company that is associated with the substance under 3tudy. The substance may be:
Manufactured at the plant (e.g., as a product, by-product or co-product)
. Used at the plant (e.g., as a raw material)
Present as in-process material (e.g., as a solvent, formulation or impurity)
. Handled for wholesale or retail distribution.
Therefore, your company may complete more than one set of forms depending on the number of plants that are associated with the case study substance. For example:
. Only one set of forms may be required for a case study substance if it is used, manufactured, present or handled at only one plant site of your company
. More than one set of forms may be required for a case study substance if it is used, manufactured, present or handled at more than one plant site.
Cost information will be determined on a plant-by-plant basis for each substance selected for a case study. If more than one substance is present at each plant that may potentially be regulated:
. Do not allocate separate compliance costs to each of the various substances present.
. Assume that the compliance cost required will be the effect of all substances at the plant unit potentially regulated.
. Do not complete a separate set of forms for each substance present at a plant unit, since this would result in double counting.
OSHA's proposed regulation and these forms cover each of the substances that may be classified by OSKA under Category 1 or Category II. The four categories established by OSKA are:
. Category I - Confirmed Carcinogens
. Category II - Suspect Carcinogens
. Category III - Substance for Which There Is Insufficient Information to Reach a Conclusion on Carcinogenicity
. Category IV - Substances of Carcinogenic Potential Not Found in the American Workplace.
- 5-
AP00048348
.J TO avoid prejudging the results of future oncological testing, the cost analysis is evaluated at two assumed levels;
Assumption 1 - Assume that the case study substances will be classified as a Category I substance
Assumption II - Assume that the case study substances will be classi fied as a Category II substances.
The compliance costs calculations are similar for Category I and Category IT substances except for:
. Engineering Controls
Category I substances will require employers to provide engineering controls to reduce exposure to the "lowest level feasible" (refer to No. 6, below)
Category II substances are assumed for purposes of this study not to require engineering controls expenditures.
Segregation of Work Area
Category I substances will require employers to segregate work areas of the plant in which Category I substances are present.
Category II substances will not require segrega tion of the work area.
. Lunchroom Facilities
Category I substances will require employers to provide lunchroom facilities that have a controlled temperature, positive pressure and filtered air supply whenever food or beverages are consumed in the workplace.
- Category II substances require appropriate facili ties for eating and drinking. Therefore, no capital cost expenditure should have to be applied.
6. The proposed OSHA regulation requires that engineering controls be provided to reduce exposure to the "lowest level feasible." OSHA does not define the "lowest level feasible." Depending on the definition, the cost of engineering controls may vary dramatically. Therefore, the cost of engineering controls should be calculated at three assumed levels. These assumed levels selected for the case studies were chosen to provide a range of possible standards; they do not directly reflect the level that OSHA may establish for a case study sub stance and they do not imply that these levels are technically feasible. The three assumed permissible exposure levels (PEL) for the case study substances differ depending on the form of the substar.ee.
. For liquid or gaseous substances, the engineering controls should be estimate^-at"the following three pel levels;
- 10 parts per million 1 part per million
10 parts per billion
. For solid substances, the engineering controls should be estimated at the following three PEL levels;
- 100 micrograms per cubic meter of air (0.1 milligrams) - 10 micrograms per cubic meter of air
1 microgram per cubic meter of air
(l)There are certain situations where capital cost expenditures can be called for under the proposed act. For example: If it is currently not feasible to meet an existing permissible exposure level (PEL) and your company uses respirators for compliance, engineering controls will be required to reduce exposure to the lowest level feasible, while still requiring use of respirators. Or, if the substance is not now covered by a PEL, it can be under this regulation. If these situations apply to your company, you may want to address them in your submission.

AP00048349
7. Thi.3 form establishes a standardized basis for estimating compliance cost and other economic effects. The coat data are "differential" cost information -- the added cost of compliance over and above the cost of compliance with existing regulations.
8. The cost of compliance should be consistent in terms c 1977 dollars. 9. The compliance costs should assume no change in demand for the primary product.
Therefore, compliance costs shall be determined at: . 1976 production output 1976 employment.
The compliance costs should assume normal operations and not take into account other factors, such as changes in prices and availability.

IV. SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS TO COMPLETE FORMS
IV A. Description of Forms To Be Completed By yOUr Company
There are eight basic forms enclosed in this package. The completion of these forms will serve as a basis for estimating the economic impact of the proposed OSHA carcinogen standard. Rather than to prejudge future oncological testing or "safe" employee exposure levels, there are four levels for which direct costs will be estimated by these forms for each case study substance. These levels correspond to the following assumptions:
. Case study substance is classified as a Category II substance and the PEL established will not require additional engineering controls.
Case study substance is classified as a Category I substance and the pel established is 10 ppm for liquids and gases, or 100 micrograms per cubic meter of air for solids.
. Case study substance is classified as a Category I substance and the PEL established is 1 ppm for liquids and gases, or 10 micrograms per cubic meter of air for solids.

Engineering Control Coat Calculation Guidelines (For Use With" Form IVT
The key provisions of the proposed act call for engineering controls to play the major role in reducing employee substance exposure.
For purposes of this study, we have assumed control costs will only be required for areas where the case study substance is evaluated as a Category I substance.
Engineering control costs required for Category I will depend on the PEL leyel that is established for that substance. For purposes of economic analysis, we have designated several assumed levels for which engineering controls should be estimated. These levels were selected arbitrarily to provide several levels at which engineering controls could be evaluated.
- For substances that are in liquid or vapor form, engineering controls will be evaluated at the following three assumed PEL levels:
.. 10 parts per million .. 1 part per million .. 10 parts per billion
For solid substances, engineering controls will be estimated at the following three assumed PEL levels:
.. 100 micrograms per cubic meter of air .. 10 micrograms per cubic meter of air .. 1 microgran per cubic meter of air
The capital cost calculations for each of the types of control should reflect a total project cost in 1977 dollars. Elements usually included are:
Engineering - Design - Materials
Equipment - Construction - Contingency (to be applied as 10 percent of all costs above).
The costs for typical investment items as presented on the next page reflect total project cost and if applied should not be altered to include additional project cost factors.
Xf it is dstsrmined that in order to achieve one of the designated PEL levels, a new facility would be needed for economic or technological reasons, then the engineering control capital cost should be estimated as the cost of an equivalent new facility (same production capacity):
The capital coat should be the cost of a new facility less the salvage value (or plus the demolition cost) .
The annual operating cost should be the differential cost of the new facility operating cost minus the existing facility operat ing cost (do not include depreciation!
The differential first year costs should include start-up costs.
Total engineering costs to meet the assumed PEL level must be estimated by your company. However, to assist your analysis, the following is a list of control techniques that are typically used to control exposure levels.
Vapor

AP00048358
1. Process Change
If process change is selected as the method of reducing substance exposure, the capital cost requirement must be determined solely for the individual process or operation.
2. Ventilation
Ventilation systems ean be designed to control either the local area or a general area. The cost is also dependent on the specified air flow rate.
'
3. Storage Tank Vapor Control
Floating roof tanks, indirect combustion, activated carbon adsorption and vapor containment systems are commonly applied to control storage tank vapors. Floating roof tanks are usually more cost effective than other control tech nologies to control storage tank vapors.
4. Mechanical Seals For Pumping Equipment
Pumps that currently have packed seals can be changed to mechanical seals. The control cost per pump is normally $S,000 to $10,000.
5. Closed Loop Sampling System
The installation of closed loop sampling systems will reduce employee exposure to liquid vapors during process sampling. The estimated cost for fabrication of such a system is estimated to be $500 per sampling location.
6. Liquid Level Alarms
Storage and process vessels should be equipped with high liquid level alarms to reduce the potential of overflow. The estimated cost to equip existing tanks with liquid level alarms is $3,000 per tank.
7. Rupture Disks
Rupture disks are used to reduce Leakage associated with poor sealing of relief valves. The estimated cost is $1,000 per relief valve.
8. Enclosures of Equipment or Processes
These systems consist of complete enclosure of equipment and processes using impermeable barriers. They are usually accompanied by exhaust ventilation and material collection systems.
9. Washing or Decontamination Systems
These systems are used in handling and storage areas to reduce exposure to particulate substances that adhere to exteriors of storage containers. Contami nated washings handling equipment costs should be included in these systems.
10. Clean-Up Equipment Generally consists of vacuum equipment to prevent particulate accumulation.
11. Conveying Systems
These systems are required to transport particulate substances instead of manual handling. They are generally enclosed.
12. Leak Proofing
This is done in existing doors, enclosures and ventilation systems whenever necessary. Cost to be estimated by your company.

XV D. Additional Economic Effect Guidelines (For Use With Form VIZ & Form villj
The requirements of the OSHA Carcinogen Standard may result in effects on your business in addition to direct quantifiable costs. Some of these are:
. Regulated substitution of raw materials. The proposal authorized OSHA to require for Category I substances "no occupational exposure," if it determines that there is a less hazardous suitable substitute. This may, in effect, amount to a ban on a substance for some or all applications.
. Voluntary substitution of raw materials for a variety of reasons: To avoid complexity of handling regulated materials.
-- To avoid potential liability effects. To avoid higher-cost regulated materials.
. changes in sales levels for a variety of reasons: Substitution to avoid handling of products labeled "carcinogens.:
- Reduction in purchase because of higher price. Effect of a potential ban on the substance in the workplace. Loss of sales to nonregulated foreign producers.
. Loss of jobs because of sales reduction or plant closings. . Changes in productivity because of manpower requirement shifts,
change in production capacity or change in demand. . Business closings because of higher operating cost, higher raw
material prices or product bans, especially as they might effect small businesses. . Changes in price because of changes in cost or demand. These issues are addressed on Forms VII and vtix. They may not all be significant for a single company but those that do apply should be addressed. They may well be significant from an overall industry point of view. Many of these areas call for subjective judgment and projections of what is likely to happen. It is important to be realistic in those assessments. Any exaggerations in this area would throw doubt on the credibility of the entire effort. Questions in this area are divided into two pages: . Form VII is to be filled out if the plant unit produces the particular case-study substance. Much of the material can be better provided if marketing peopLe are involved in filling out this page. . Form VIII is to be filled out if the plant purchases, uses, or m another way encounters the case-study substance in the plant unit. Either one or the other, in general, should be filled out for each case-study sub stance encountered in the plant unit. Formulators should fill out both. For the survey, any areas that are not applicable should be marked, "not applicable."

SUGGESTED OUTLINE FOR INDIVIDUAL COMPANY COMMENTS OR TESTIMONY ON THE OSHA GENERIC CARCINOGEN
PROPOSAL FOCUSING PRIMARILY ON ECONOMICS
Chapter I - Company Background
Description of the company, including!
. Size . Products made . Number of employees . Export-import balance . Activities in protecting worker health.
Chapter II - Methodology For Estimating Economic Impact
The guideline is the recommended methodology that should be referenced here.
Chapter III - Direct Cost
Impacts o the regulation, under two scenarios! . Scenario A - Assume all your products which are on the NIOSH List of Suspected Carcinogens are in Category I.
. Scenario B - Assume all your products which are on the NIOSH List of Suspected Carcinogens are in Category II.
Scenario A direct costs should be estimated at three potential control levels:
. a PEL Level of 100 ppm for liquids and gases or 100 micrograms for solids
. a PEL level of 1 ppm for liquids and gases Tsr 10 micrograms for solids
. a PEL level of 10 ppb for liquids and gases or 1 microgram for solids.
Chapter IV - Indirect Implications To The Company
This section should cover those significant elements of economic impact on your company that are not direct compliance-cost items. Possibilities include effects on:
. Use of substitute materials and processes . Price . Productivity . Competitive position regarding foreign producers . Possible plant closing . Employment . Small versus large companies.
Chapter V - Indirect Cost implications To Customer Industries
Using examples where possible, this section should cover effects on user industry.
. Use of substitute materials and processes . Costs and prices . Productivity . Competitive position regarding foreign producers . Plant and business closings Employment . Small- versus large-volume users.
* * *
You, may also want to cover non-economic issues in your submission such as technical problems, questions of toxicological definition, and recommendations for changes to the rule as proposed.
