                                1  BACKGROUND
       Section lll(f) of the Clean Air Act1(CAA) requires that EPA publish a
list of major stationary sources of air pollution not already listed under
Section lll(b)(1)(A); that is, for which NSPS had not, as of August 7, 1977, been
proposed or promulgated.  The list was to he promulgated by August 7, 1978, after
EPA had provided notice of an opportunity for public hearings and consulted with
Governors and State air pollution control agencies.  In developing priorities,
EPA was to consider (1) the quantity of emissions from each source category,
(2) the extent to which each pollutant endangers public health or welfare, and
(3) the mobility and competitive nature of each stationary source category,
e.g., the capability of a new or existing source to locate in areas with less
stringent air pollution control regulations.  After the list is promulgated,
Governors may submit applications under Section lll(g) to add major source
categories to the list, add any source category to the list which may endanger
public health or welfare, change the priority ranking, or revise promulgated
NSPS.
       Argonne National Laboratory (ANL), under contract with EPA, initiated
development of this list by compiling information on a large number of source
categories from a number of literature resources.  This preliminary list was
evaluated using the criteria specified in Section lll(f) of the CAA.  A draft
report describing this analysis was reviewed by the National Air Pollution
Control Techniques Advisory Committee on April 6, 1978.
       A final report published in April 1978 (see Ref. 2 - Priorities for
NSPS Under the Clean Air Aot Amendments of 1977, EPA-450/3-78-019) describes
the methodology used to apply the criteria and provides the resource material
used in developing the list.
                       2  NSPS PRIORITIZATION PROGRAM
       The source category data were first analyzed to determine those sources
which have the potential to emit 100 tons or more per year of any one pollutant.
These major source categories were then subjected to a priority ranking pro-
cedure using the three criteria specified in the CAA. - The priority ranking
procedure used represents an extension of an earlier Argonne procedure  develop-
ed to prioritize NSPS source categories using an extensive industrial data base
developed by TRC, Inc.1*         ,~

                       2  NSPS PRIORITIZATION PROGRAM
       The source category data were first analyzed to determine those sources
which have the potential to emit 100 tons or more per year of any one pollutant.
These major source categories were then subjected to a priority ranking pro-
cedure using the three criteria specified in the CAA. •; The priority ranking
procedure1 used represents an extension of an earlier Argonne procedure  develop-
ed to prioritize NSPS source categories using an extensive industrial data base
developed by TRC, Inc.**  -

-------
       In summary, the prioritization procedure first ranks source categories
on a pollutant by pollutant basis.  This results in nine lists [one for each
pollutant — hydrocarbons (HC), nitrogen oxides (NO ), particulate matter (PM),
                                                   X
sulfur dioxide (SCL), carbon monoxide (CO), lead (Pb), fluorides (F), acid
mist (AM), and hydrogen sulfide (H^S)] with each list ranked using the criteria
in the CAA.  In this ranking, first priority is given to quantity of emissions,
second priority to potential impact on health and welfare, and third priority
to mobility.  Thus, sources with the greatest growth rates and emission reduc-
tion potential are high on each list; sources with limited choice of location,
low growth and small emission potential are low on each list.
       The nine lists are combined.into one by selecting pollutant goals —a
procedure which, in effect, assigns a relative priority to pollutants based
upon the potential impact of NSPS.  After the pollutant goals are selected, the
final priority list is established through the selection of source categories
which will have maximum impact on attaining the selected goals.  The effect of
this procedure is to emphasize control of organic (hydrocarbon), particulate
matter, sulfur dioxide, and NO  emissions and to give carbon monoxide and
noncriteria pollutants a lower priority.
       The ranking of source categories on the list and, in fact, the differ-
entiation between major and minor sources is sensitive to the accuracy of the
data utilized.  The ranking is especially sensitive to emission factors, source
sizes, mobility, and source category growth rates.  Because the original data
base used to establish,.the priority list was obtained from a number of literature
sources and because time was not available to perform an independent verification
of these data, it was expected that further study will identify certain inaccu-
racies in the original data base.
                            3  REVISED DATA BASE
       EPA published the proposed list of major source categories in the
Federal Register  (see 43 FR 38872, August 31, 1978).  Copies of the Pviovi-
tlzation Doeumenb"2- were submitted to the Governors of the States and were made
available to the  general public.
       EPA forwarded to ANL for revaluation comments received on the priori-
tization of major source categories.  These comments came from the public
sector and from EPA staff.  Due to both EPA and public comments, ANL reexamined

-------
34 major source category data sets out of the 156 source category data sets in
the original prioritized list.  ANL also reexamined 11 minor source category
data sets.

3.1  IMPACT OF DATA CHANGES ON MINOR SOURCE CATEGORIES
       As a result of both EPA and public comments, 11 minor source categories
were reexamined and data changes were made for nine source categories.  In
addition, one source category (i.e., Printing Ink Mfgr.) was reclassified from
a major source to a minor source category.  Table 3-1 illustrates the change
in potential emission reduction (i.e., Ts-Tn) as a result of the data changes.
Table 3.1 indicates some significant potential emission reduction .for hydro-
carbon source categories resulting from data set revisions.

3.2  IMPACT OF DATA CHANGES ON MAJOR SOURCE CATEGORIES
       As a result of EPA and public sector comments on the original priori-
tized list proposed in the Federal Register, ANL reexamined 34 major source
category data sets.  The reexamination resulted in data changes for 22 major
source categories, which included reclassifying one major source category as
a minor source category (i.e., Printing Ink Mfgr.).  In addition, seven major
source categories were removed from the prioritized list.  Six of these source
category deletions resulted from up-dated data indicating essentially zero new
and replacement source category growth.  These source categories are:  Varnish/
Oleo-Resin, Steel/Open Hearth, High Explosive Waste Mfgr., Grey Iron Cupola,
Hydrofluoric Acid Mfgr. and High Btu Gasification.  ANL was unable to determine
acceptable input data for the Low Explosives Mfgr. Industry, therefore, this
source category was dropped from the list.
3.3  IMPACT OF PROGRAM CORRECTION ON PRIORITIZATION LIST
        In addition to source category data set changes, a modification to the
prioritization program caused  some changes to the prioritized list.  In the
original prioritization program, no provision was made to ignore standard set-
ting for pollutant emissions with a zero Ts-Tn value.  For instance, a major
source  category may have a high Ts-Tn for hydrocarbons and a zero Ts-Tn for
particulate emissions and the  source category'have a high air quality impact
for both pollutants.  In the development of the original list, the program was

not Instructed to ignore zero Ts-Tn source category/pollutant sets.  This
problem was corrected and resulted in some shift in source category priori-
tization irrespective of input source category data set changes.
       The elimination of the zero Ts-Tn source category/pollutant sets also
resulted in the elimination of some source categories from the list where
these source categories had no Ts-Tn values greater than .zero.  These,source
categories and the pollutant list from which they were removed are:
                   Source Category
        Acetic Acid (Butane)
        Fiberglass (Textile Process)
        Stone Quarrying
        Synthetic Rubber
        Textile Mfgr. (Heat Setting/Finishing)
        Gasoline Additives (Electrolytic)  •
        Gasoline Additives (Sodium-Lead)
       Table 3-2  is  the revised prioritized list of source categories for NSPS
promulgation based on source category data changes.  A prioritization by (Ts-Tn)
requires that the source  categories be  divided  into three distinct groups of
high, moderate, and  low  (Ts-Tn).  The range of  (Ts-Tn) values for  the three
groups  In the new data set  is  the same  as  was used in the original data set.
The distribution  of  source  categories among the three  (Ts-Tn) groups is roughly
the same for both the original and new  data sets.  In the original data set
there were  34 high (Ts-Tn)  source categories, 58 moderate and 64 low.  In the
revised data  set  there are 29  high  (Ts-Tn) source categories, 55 moderate and
64 low.
        Table  3-3  indicates the impact data changes had  on the source category
prioritization rank.  Since the  total list of prioritized major source cate-
gories was  reduced from 156 to 148  due  to source  category deletions,  the source
category rank is  also  presented  in  normalized  format  for comparative purposes.
Table 3-3 contains all the major source categories which received  either EPA
or public comment except those major source  categories deleted  from the  list.
Examination of Table 3-3 indicates  that over  60%  of  the source  categories
 receiving comment incurred only  minor change  in prioritization  rank.
        Table 3-4 shows the effectiveness of  the prioritized standard setting
 schedule on emission reduction over a ten year period from 1980 to 1990.   The
table is similar to Table 3-14 in the original prioritization report.

Source category was revaluated but no data change was  deemed warranted,

prioritization schedule emission reduction is bounded for comparative purposes
by the worst possible case of no NSPS standards set during the ten year period
and the best possible case of all NSPS standards set in the base year, 1980.
       Table 3-4 compares well to Table 3-142 reflecting the original data set.
There are only small differences in the percent change of pollutant emissions
in the case where all NSPS are set in the. base year.  This indicates that large
differences in percent changes in the case of no NSPS set (i.e., CO and Pb)  are
primarily due to growth factors.  Also, source categories characterized by de-
creasing capacity and zero replacement rate such as Grey Iron Cupola were de-
leted from the list.  The revised data set indicates a slightly better reduc-
tion in particulate emissions and lead emissions and a slight increase in sul-
fur dioxide emissions and nitrogen oxide emissions.                           ',
                                 4  EPA LIST
       Table 3-5 indicates the EPA prioritized list based on EPA aggregation
of source categories from the ANL list.  Table 3-5 compares the proposed EPA
list (43FR38872, August 31, 1978) with the revised list resulting from data
set revaluations and the final list resulting from both data set revaluations
and corrections made to the prioritization program routine (i.e., eliminating
zero Ts-Tn pollutant/source category data sets for standard setting).

16. ABSTRACT
          The Clean Air Act  Amendments of 1977 require   that the USEPA consider
     specific criteria in  determing priorities for  setting NSPS for major source
     categories:  quantity of air pollutant emissions,  extent to which air pollutant
     emissions endanger public health and welfare and the  mobility and competitive
     nature of each source category.  A previous report (EPA-450/3-78-019) describes
     a methodology that has  been developed for prioritizing source categories using
     the Clean Air Act criteria.  The methodology,  which employs three distinct
     computer programs, was  applied to a data set of over  150 major source categories
     for nine different air  pollutant emissions (particulate matter, sulfur dioxide,
     nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide lead,  sulfuric acid mist, hydrogen
     sulfide, and fluorides).  The program output is a  prioritized list of source
     categories for NSPS promulgation over a ten year period based on a multipollutant
     source category emission analysis, and was used to propose standard-setting
     priorities.  This report incorporates input data revisions resulting from comments
     on the proposed list  and is used to determine  a revised NSPS priority list.
