INTRODUCTION
This report supports the Effluent Limitations Guidelines and Standards for the Coastal Oil and Gas
Industry ("Coastal Guidelines"). The report analyzes the cost-effectiveness of five regulatory options for three
wastestreams organized into two wastestream groups under the current regulatory baseline and under an
alternative baseline. In this document, EPA compares the total annualized cost of each regulatory option to the
corresponding effectiveness of that option in reducing the discharge of pollutants for each wastestream. EPA
evaluates the effectiveness in terms of costs per pound of pollutant removed, weighted by the relative toxicity of
the pollutant The rationale for this measure, referred to as "pound equivalents removed," is described later in
this document
Section Two discusses EPA's cost-effectiveness methodology and identifies the pollutants included in
the analysis. This section also presents EPA's toxic weighting factors for each pollutant and considers the
removal efficiency of each option. Section Three presents the results of an analysis comparing the considered
options to the current regulatory baseline (see the Final Economic Impact Analysis [FEIA]).1 Section Four
compares the options considered to an alternative baseline (see the FEIA, Chapter Ten). In Section Five, cost-
effectiveness values for selected coastal options are compared to cost-effectiveness values for other promulgated
rules. Appendix A presents data on pollutants and pollutant removals and Appendix B presents data on
annualized costs for each of the regulatory options. Appendix C presents an analysis of cost-effectiveness using
total annualized dollar losses as calculated in the FEIA. These total dollar losses incorporate the values of all
production losses as well as compliance costs for all affected producing units that do not shut in in the baseline
or first year.

BACKGROUND METHODOLOGY
The cost-effectiveness (CE) of the Coastal Guidelines is evaluated as the average and incremental
annualized cost of a pollution control option in an industry or industry subcategory per total and incremental
pound equivalent of pollutant (ie., pound of pollutant adjusted for toxicity) removed by that control option. The
cost-effectiveness analysis primarily enables EPA to compare the removal efficiencies of regulatory options under
consideration for a rule. A secondary and less effective use is to compare the cost-effectiveness of the options
for the Coastal Guidelines to that of Effluent Guidelines for other industries. By ranking the options in order of
decreasing cost-effectiveness (higher cost per pound equivalent removed), EPA can identify the point at which
options cease to be cost-effective.
EPA ranks options in order of decreasing cost-effectiveness (increasing cost per pound equivalent
removed) in order to identify the point at which increased removal of pollutants is no longer cost-effective.
Generally, EPA determines this to be where costs (per pound equivalent removed) increase sharply, that is, where
relatively few incremental pounds are removed for steady increases in cost The accompanying figure (Figure
2-1) shows this point as Point A, where the cost-effectiveness curve becomes nearly vertical. Increases in
removals beyond this point come only at relatively high unit costs, which, in many cases, EPA will determine
exceeds the benefit of the increased removals to society.
A number of steps must be undertaken before a cost-effectiveness analysis can be performed. There are
five steps that define the analysis or generate data for use in the cost-effectiveness calculation:
• Determine the wastewater pollutants of concern (priority and other pollutants).
• • Estimate the relative toxic weights (the adjustments to pounds of pollutants to reflect toxicity)
of the pollutants of concern.
• Define the regulatory pollution control options.
• Calculate pollutant removals for each pollution control option.
• Determine the amuialiVed cost of each pollution control option.

All of these factors are used in tMe calculation of die cost-effectiveness values, which can then be
compared for each regulatory option under consideration. The following sections discuss the five preliminary
steps and the cost-effectiveness calculation and comparison methodologies.
2.1 POLLUTANTS OF CONCERN
Under the Effluent Limitation Guidelines and Standards for the Coastal Oil and Gas Industry, a number
of priority and other nonconventional pollutants are regulated. Some of the factors considered in selecting
pollutants for regulation include toxicity, frequency of occurrence in wastestream effluent, and amount of
pollutant in the wastestream. The list of regulated pollutants for each regulatory option is presented in
Appendix A.
23 TOXIC WEIGHTING FACTORS
Cost-effectiveness analyses account for differences in toxicity among the pollutants using toxic weighting
factors. These factors are necessary because different pollutants have different potential effects on human and
aquatic life. For example, a pound of zinc in an effluent stream has a significantly different effect than a pound
of PCBs. Toxic weighting factors for pollutants are derived using ambient water quality criteria and toxicity
values. For most industries, toxic weighting factors are derived from chronic freshwater aquatic criteria. la cases
where a human health criterion has also been established for the consumption of fish, then the sum of bom the
human and aquatic criteria are used to derive toxic weighting factors. The factors are standardized by relating
them to a ''benchmark" toxicity value that was based on the toxicity of copper when the methodology was
developed.2 Appendix A presents the toxic weighting factors used for the regulated pollutants in the cost-
effectiveness analysis of the coastal oil and gas industry. Where possible, EPA derived toxic weighting factors
2 Although me water quality criterion has been revised (to 12.0 ug/l), all cost-effectiveness analyses for
effluent guideline regulations continue to use the "old" criterion of 5.6 ug/l as a benchmark so mat cost-
effectiveness values can continue to be compared to those for other effluent guidelines. Where copper is present
in the effluent, the revised higher criterion for copper results in a toxic weighting factor for copper of 0.467 rather
than 1.0.
2-3
-------
for pollutants discharged to saltwater, since most discharges by the industry are to salt or brackish waters.3 In
general, saltwater toxic weighting factors are lower (i.e., less toxic) for pollutants in saltwater than in freshwater.
Only where no saltwater toxic weighting factors are available are freshwater factors used.
Examples of the effects of different aquatic and human health criteria on freshwater toxic weighting
factors ate presented in Table 2-1. As shown in this table, the toxic weighting factor is the sum of two criteria-
weighted ratios: the "benchmark/old" copper criterion divided by the human health criterion for the particular
pollutant and the ltbenchmark/old" copper criterion divided by the aquatic chronic criterion. For example, using
the values reported in Table 2-1,11 pounds of the benchmark chemical (copper) pose lie same relative hazard
in freshwater as one pound of cadmium because cadmium has a freshwater toxic weight 11 times as large as the
toxic weight of copper (5.16/0.467=11.05).
2.3 POLLUTION CONTROL OPTIONS
This cost-effectiveness analysis was performed on pollution control options proposed for two
wastestream groups: 1) produced water/treatment, workover, and completion fluids (TWC); and 2) drilling
wastes. The produced water/TWC measures include both costs and loadings for produced water and TWC, which
were treated separately at proposal. Table 2-2 presents a summary of the options proposed by wastestream. In
all there are five separate options: three produced water/TWC options and two drilling waste options under two
regulatory baselines. For all wastestreams, a zero-discharge option is considered New Source Performance
Standards (NSPS) options are not specifically covered because they are identical to Best Available Technology
(BAT) options. The relative cost-effectiveness for new sources will not be different than that shown for the BAT
options. Pretreatment Standards for Existing Sources (PSES) and Pretreatment Standards for New Sources
(PSNS) options identical to NSPS options are also proposed. Because no PSES or PSNS projects are anticipated,
however, the cost-effectiveness of these options is not discussed
3 This is true for Main Passes and CookMet as well as for discharges associated with the .alternative baseline
(See Section Four.)

2.4 POLLUTANT REMOVALS
The pollutant loadings have been calculated for each facility under each regulatory option for comparison
with baseline (i.e., current practice, without the regulation) loadings. The postregulatory removals for each
wastestream affected under each regulatory option are presented in Appendix A.
Pollutant removals are calculated directly as the difference between current and post-treatment
discharges. Removals are then weighted using the toxic weighting factors and are reported in pound equivalents
(see Appendix A for pound equivalent removals for all pollutants by wastestream and option). Total removals
for each option ate then calculated by summing the removals for all pollutants under each option. Total pollutant
and pound equivalent removals estimated to be achieved under each regulatory option are presented by
wastestream in Table 2-3.
2.5 ANNUALIZED COSTS OF COMPLIANCE
Under each regulatory option, anmialized costs of compliance have been developed (see the FEIA). The
derivation of these costs is summarized briefly below.
For produced water and TWC, EPA derived the pretax costs (including the state and federal governments'
share of compliance costs)4 of purchasing, installing, and operating injection wells or improved gas flotation
systems, or alternatively, transportation and disposal at a commercial facility, depending on size of operation for
each of the treatment facilities not yet required to meet zero discharge in 1996 in the Gulf of Mexico and for each
of the treatment facilities in Cook Inlet Where capital costs are incurred, EPA annualized them at 7 percent5 over
10 years (the estimated realistic worst-case lifetime of production) and added to the annual costs of operating the
pollution control equipment Commercial disposal costs were computed on the basis of barrels per year disposed.
4 Every dollar spent on compliance can be applied against a firm's taxable income. Due to various tax
mechanisms such as accelerated depreciation, this reduction means that firms face only about 60 to 70 percent
of compliance costs post-tax.

For drilling wastes (which are only of concern in Cook Inlet), EPA estimated the costs of landfilling (in
an existing landfill, so to accrue annual costs only) versus using dedicated disposal wells (including the capital
costs of installing wells and retrofitting platforms). Based on a drilling schedule supplied by Cook Inlet
operators, EPA distributed operating costs over time. EPA then derived the net present value of this uneven
stream of capital and operating cost outlays annualized at 7 percent over a 7-year period of drilling.
Hie aggregate annual costs by option are presented in Table 2-4. Appendix B presents the calculations
used to arrive at the aggregate annual costs figures. Appendix C presents costs and cost-effectiveness for an
alternative analysis incorporating production losses into the cost of regulatory compliance.
2.6 CALCULATION OF THE COST-EFFECTIVENESS VALUES
Cost-effectiveness values are calculated separately for each wastestream. This approach leads to the
following two analytical groupings: produced water/TWC options and drilling waste options. Within each of
these groups, the options are ranked in ascending order of pound equivalents of pollutants removed. Under each
of these analytical groupings, the incremental cost-effectiveness value for a particular control option is calculated
as the ratio of the incremental annual cost to the incremental pound equivalents removed. Average cost-
effectiveness values are calculated as total dollars divided by total pound equivalents. The incremental
effectiveness may be viewed primarily in comparison to the baseline scenario and to other regulatory options.
Cost-effectiveness values are reported in units of dollars per pound equivalent of pollutant removed.
For the purpose of comparing cost-effectiveness values of options under review to those of other
promulgated rules, compliance costs used in the cost-effectiveness analysis are adjusted to 1981 dollars using
Engineering News Records Construction Cost Index (CCI). This adjustment factor is calculated as follows:
Adjustment factor = 1981 CCI/1995 CCI = 3,535/5,471 = 0.646

The equation to calculate incremental cost-effectiveness is:
ATCk-ATCk.1
where:
ATCk=
PEk=
Cost-effectiveness of Option k
Total annualized treatment cost under Option k
Pound equivalents removed by Option k
The numerator of the equation, ATQ. minus ATC^, is simply the incremental annualized treatment cost
in going from Option k-1 (an option that removes fewer pound equivalent pollutants) to Option k (an option that
removes more pound equivalent pollutants). The denominator is similarly the incremental removals achieved in
going from Option k-1 to k. Thus, cost-effectiveness measures the incremental unit cost of pollutant removal
of Option k (in pound equivalents) in comparison to Option k- 1 .
Average cost-effectiveness values can also be derived by setting ATC,.., to zero and by setting the
pollutant loadings (PE^) to the current loading. These values can be used, with caution, to compare an option
to previously promulgated effluent limitations guidelines.
2.7 COMPARISONS OF COST-EFFECTIVENESS VALUES
Because the options are ranked in ascending order of pound equivalents of pollutants removed, any
option that has higher costs but lower removals than another option immediately can be identified (the cost-
effectiveness value for the next option becomes negative). When negative values are computed for Option k,
Option k-1 will be noted as "dominated" (having a higher cost and lower removals than Option k). Option k-1
is then removed from the cost-effectiveness calculations, and all cost-effectiveness values within a regulatory
grouping are then recalculated without the "dominated" option. This process continues until all "dominated"
options are eliminated. The remaining options can then be presented in terms of their incremental cost-
effectiveness values and are considered viable options for regulatory consideration.

SECTION THREE
CURRENT REGULATORY BASELINE RESULTS
The cost-effectiveness analysis is based on the Agency's estimates of the cost of compliance and
wastewater pollution removals associated with five BAT options for two wastestream groups—produced
water/TWC and drilling waste. NSPS options are also established but are not separately investigated because
they are the same as BAT options and the relative cost-effectiveness is the same. A total of five options
organized into the two wastestream groups under the current regulatory baseline are analyzed (see Section Two
for more details).
The following sections, present a brief description of the technologies used in each of the regulatory
groupings, and, for each grouping, cost-effectiveness data and results are presented in a table. Note that the
incremental data for the first option in each group is determined against baseline values (i.e., no removals and
no cost). Cost-effectiveness results are presented for priority and other nonconventional pollutants combined.
3.1 PRODUCED WATER/TWC BAT OPTIONS
Three BAT options were evaluated for produced water/TWC. Option #1 requires oil and grease limits
based on the use of improved gas flotation technology (currently required of all offshore oil and gas operations).
Option #2 requires all operations to achieve zero discharge, with the exception of Cook Inlet and main pass
operations, where limits based on improved gas flotation must be achieved. Option #3 requires all coastal oil
and gas operations to achieve zero discharge, regardless of location.
Table 3-1 presents the cost-effectiveness data and results under the current regulatory baseline. As
shown in the table, the incremental cost-effectiveness values range from $5 to $42 per pound equivalent removed.
The selected option is Option #2, zero discharge with improved gas flotation in Cook Inlet The
incremental cost-effectiveness of this option is $35 per pound equivalent removed and the average cost-
effectiveness is $14 per pound equivalent removed.

3.2 DRILLING WASTE BAT OPTIONS >

Drilling waste requirements only apply to Code Met because the remainder of the subcategory is subject
to zero discharge. Two BAT options were evaluated for drilling waste. Option #1 specifies zero discharge in
all coastal areas and offshore oil and gas industry limitations for Cook Inlet. This option corresponds to current
practices. Option #2 requires zero discharge in all regions.
Table 3-2 presents the cost-effectiveness data and results for this group of options. The incremental
cost-effectiveness values range from $0 to $699 per pound equivalent removed.
EPA selected Option #1. As shown in Table 3-2, this option has no costs or loading reductions
associated with it

SECTION FOUR
ALTERNATIVE BASELINE RESULTS
Undo- the current regulatory baseline, EPA assumes that only certain operators discharging to the major
passes of the Mississippi River and operators in Cook Met are affected by the regulation. Under the alternative
baseline, EPA assumes that, in addition to those dischargers affected under the current regulatory baseline,
operators defined as Louisiana Open Bay Dischargers and Texas Individual Permit Applicants also are affected
by the regulation (see the FEIA).
Table 4-1 shows the total pollutants removed under the alternative regulatory baseline and Table 4-2
shows the aggregate annualized costs. The results are presented in Tables 4-3 and 4-4. As Table 4-3 shows,
the incremental cost-effectiveness values for the produced water/TWC BAT options under the alternative baseline
range fiom $22 to $42. EPA selected Option #2, zero discharge with limits based on improved gas flotation in
Cook Inlet The incremental cost-effectiveness of tins option is $42 per pound equivalent removed and the
average cost-effectiveness is $26 per pound equivalent removed.
Table 4-4 presents the cost-effectiveness data and results for the drilling waste BAT options. The cost-
effectiveness for drilling waste options is the same for the current regulatory baseline and the alternative baseline.
Therefore, as in the results presented previously, the incremental cost-effectiveness values for the alternative
baseline range fiom $0 to $699 per pound equivalent removed. The selected option is Option #1. As shown in
Table 4-4, this option has no costs or loading reductions associated with it

SECTION FIVE
COMPARISON OF COST-EFFECTIVENESS VALUES WITH
PROMULGATED RULES
Table 5-1 presents the cost-effectiveness values far Effluent Limitations Guidelines and Standards issued
for direct dischargers under BAT in other industries. The numbers presented here for this rulemaking are pretax
costs, whereas many of the numbers presented for other effluent guidelines are post-tax costs—that is, the costs
actually faced by the firms, not the total cost of the equipment (which is subsidized by reductions in taxable
income). Thus direct comparisons between this rulemaking and others cannot be made easily. An equivalent
post-tax cost, however, might be at least 60 to 70 percent of pretax costs. The number reported for the Coastal
Oil and Gas Industry is for the selected produced water option, the most costly drilling waste option, and the most
costly TWC option listed separately. As the table shows, the $35 per pound equivalent removed for produced
water/TWC is well within the range of cost-effectiveness values seen for other rules. For drilling waste, BAT
is zero discharge in the coastal subcategory, except in Cook Inlet, where BAT is equal to current practice (BAT
limits established in permits on a best professional judgment basis) and thus results in no costs.

APPENDIX C
COST-EFFECTIVENESS RESULTS
INCLUDING PRODUCTION LOSSES IN COMPLIANCE COST ESTIMATES
In this appendix, EPA assesses the cost-effectiveness of the Coastal Guidelines using the total dollar
losses calculated for each modeled well, facility, or platform in the economic impact analysis (see the FEIA) for
produced water/TWC options. (Drilling options are not associated with production losses and thus are not
addressed here.) These losses include capital and O&M expenditures on compliance equipment among
production units that do not shut in in the baseline or first year (these production units would not install the
equipment), the tax shields on that equipment (taxes foregone by state and federal governments), the value of
production losses to the firm and state and federal governments (income and severance taxes), and mineral rights
owners (royalties).
The pollutant loadings remain the same, but the annual costs of compliance in some cases tend to be less
(leadingto an overall slightly lower annual cost over all options) because the production loss modeling is more
sophisticated than the approach used to calculate total compliance costs. Using the production loss model
(described in the FEIA), EPA can determine which operators will choose to install equipment and produce and
which operators will choose to shut in and incur production losses instead of incurring compliance costs, thereby
reducingtheir total losses. In many cases, the total value of production lost is less than the cost of compliance.
Table C-l shows the present value losses (costs) in 1995 dollars, the annualized cost, and the annualized cost
in 1981 dollars for all options under the current regulatory baseline and the alternative regulatory baseline.
Table C-2 presents the cost-effectiveness using total dollar losses under the current regulatory baseline.
As shown in the table, the incremental cost-effectiveness values range from $5 to $41 per pound equivalent
removed. EPA selected Option #2, zero discharge with improved gas flotation in Cook Inlet The incremental
cost-effectiveness of this option is $31 per pound equivalent removed and the average cost-effectiveness is $ 13
per pound equivalent removed.
Table C-3 presents the cost-effectiveness using total dollar losses under the alternative regulatory
baseline. As shown in the table, the incremental cost-effectiveness values range from $20 to $44 per pound
