Positive Impacts: Employment Information for On-site Jobs
Each on-site business was researched in the Dun & Bradstreet (D&B), database where number of employees, and sales volume
information was gathered. D &B is a company that provides information on businesses and corporations. It maintains a database of
over 179 million companies globally and over 53 million professional contact names using a variety of sources including public
records, trade references, tele-communication providers, newspapers and publications, and telephone interviews among other
various sources (www.dnb.com). In cases where data was not available in D&B, attempts were made to obtain the number of
employees from Lawrence Economic Development Corporation (LEDC) or individual business owners.
The Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS) number, is a unique nine-digit identification number assigned by Dun & Bradstreet to
each business and its location within the D&B database for the purpose of identifying each business. For businesses not reporting to
D&B, assumptions about the most appropriate NAICS code for those particular businesses were made.
Positive Impacts: Wage and Income Information for On-site Jobs
Wage and income information was gathered using the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) data. The BLS is a governmental statistical
agency that collects, processes, analyzes, and disseminates essential statistical data to the American public, the U.S. Congress, and
other Federal agencies in the broad field of labor economics and statistics. The data provided by the BLS has high standards of
accuracy and consistently high statistical quality, and impartiality in both subject matter and presentation.
Average weekly wage data for each of the businesses located at the South Point Plant Site was collected from the BLS Quarterly
Census of Employment and Wages database. Average weekly wage data was identified by matching the North American Industry
Classification System (NAICS) codes corresponding with each type of business with weekly wage data for corresponding businesses
in Lawrence County, if not available at the county level, the wage information was sought by State or National level, respectively. In
cases where wage data is not available for the six digit NAICS code, higher level (less detailed) NAICs codes are used to obtain the
wage data.
To determine the annual wages (mean annual) earned from jobs generated by each of the business located at the South Point Plant
Site, the average weekly wage figure was multiplied by the number of weeks in a year (52) and by the number of jobs (employees)
for each of the businesses.
