Motions for Sunnary Disnosition of Contention 8F1 (coal emissions health effects)

First, much of Staff's and Applicants ' statenents, arguments and affidavits disnute the validity of the emissions number for coal particulates (1151 4 metric tons ner year) given in Table S-3 All such goings-on are challenges to N9C rules. Intervenons are not allowed to disnute the values of emissions given in Table S-3 In fairness, neither should Staff or Apulicants be allowed to.

If they want to change the values, they can institute (or netition for) a rulemaking, or they can file netitions for a variance from the rule under 10 CFR 2.758. To date, it annears Staff and Annlicants have not done either of these things. Therefore, all their assertions regarding the actual amount of narticulates to be discharged should be ignored, and the figure of 11514 netric tons given in Table S-3 of 10 CPR 51.20, and statements and argunents based on that figure, should be the only things considered by the Board regavding contention 8F1. Staff and Applicants should play by the sane rules intervenovs 8312200233 031216 have to. DR ADOCK 05000 3 .

O In the FES',1 consideration of health effects of coal na-ticulates appears as part of a single sentence in Appendix C (p.C-h) stating that the Staff has found that "these emissions" add about "'O 02%

(two-hundredths of one percent) of the national annual releases" for each of these snecies (including particulates).

Contention 8F(1) does not even annear in Annendix J of the FFS, listing admitted contentions and what section(s) of the FES deal with them. This is true ever. though that appendix lists content $ons that have long since been thrown out as need-for-nower issues (""22A and B) and others on which both Staff and Apolicants have effectively moved for sunnary disposition. (See up J-1 thru J-4)

The contention says that the health effects of coal particulates "have not been analyzed (or) given sufficient weight

in the DES, and the FES, on its face, annears to not analyze or give weight to these health effects.

However, Applicants ' affiant Leonard D. Hamilton, when he deals with the actual S-3 number of 115h metric tons ner reactor-year of narticulates, effectively supports the contention. He calculates t n

[ (Affidavit in Sunnort of Anplicants ' Motion for Summary Disposition l

of Wells Eddleman's Contention 8P(1)", Dec. 6 '83 , page 7) that coal narticulate the health effects of this level of emissions from the nlants actually 4

sunnlying various gas diffusion (uranium enrichment) facilities range from 0.1 deaths year (Jonpa plant and Kyger plant), to 0.11 deaths for the Shawnee plant, 0.29 for the Bull Run plant, and 0.kh l for the Clifty plant. While he states these figu"es are uncertain, he says the " coefficient is statistically greater than zero" (ou 7 8)

(the " coefficient" is in fact 1.3 + 0.6 deaths / yea" per 10b versons per microgram ner cubic meter of fine narticulates (FP), ibid, n.7).

I While Anplicants' affiant stresses the uncertainties in this analysis, Applicants, in their sunplemental responses to interrogatories on 8F(1)

(Dec. 6 '83) admit the effects could be " extremely small" (answer to 8f1-1(a), p.2 ibid). The Harvard damage coefficient cited by Dr.

Hamilton is not zero, and the fact that, due to possible errors in data used to ddrive it (Hamilton, affidavit u.8) it cannot be absolutely proved to be nonzero is not strong enough efidence for sunmary disnosition on this issue.

To see this, connare the treatment of radiation health effects in the FES: It asserts'*D.008 cancer deaths / year from this (2-unit) facility"'(p.5-35) due to nuclear waste transnortation (spent fuel etc) and radiological imnacts of the niant, which it sneaks of in sevewal pages of text (however ill-documented it may be). Mo"eover, the Staff figured (p.5-31) about 12 changces in 100 that one of the workers at the plant would die of cancer due to on-the-job radiation exposure. Similar small numbers, e.g. O.3 genetic defects, have discussion and a part of Annendix C concerning Unen.

If Applicants' affiant Hamilton *s right, the S-3 emissions l

from coal n1 ants (particulates) would uroduce 0.1 to 0.kk deaths l

l per reactor year, based en a statistically significant damage estimate from such particulates by Harvard University Energy & Environmental Policy Center. (Dr. Hamilton used the midpoint of the estinate, i.e.

1 3 deaths /10b persons-year ner microgran per m3 fine earticulates ) .

Those are comparable or larger numbers than the Staff radiation death and genetic effect numbers cited above. Yet the FFS nrovides no l analysis connarable to that for radiation health effects as to the coal narticulates included in Table S-3 Note that the FES states (as to radiation health effects) "Most authorities agree that a reasonable -- and nrobably conservative -- estimate of the effects of low levels of radiation exnosure to a large number of people is within the range of about 10 to 500 potential cance" deaths

-h-(although zero is not excluded by the data) per million verson-rens.

(p.5-53, top, emnhasis added). So even though zero deaths are not excluded, in Staff's view, for the radiation deaths due to Shearon Harris oneration, they are considered (radiation deaths) and calculated somehow. This isn't done for the coal particulates, even thoagh Dr. Hamilton's own data show that a reasonable, conservative estimate for such deaths (based on health effects data statistically significantly different from zero -- p.7 of his affidavit), is 0.1-0.hk deaths / year, per Harris unit (Table S-3 is for one reactor,10, CFR 51.20).

Dr. Hamilton also gives a figure for mortably over the entire

~

US using the same damage function (taking fine carticulates at half the 1145 MT/ year Table S-3 particulate emissions due to Harris per unit) on page 8 of his affidavit. It is 0.67 excess deaths ner year.

Since the Staff takes the 11h5 netric tons of navticulates to be 0.02% of US total emissions (FES page C-4), we can infer from this figure that in the US, 5000 tines 0.67 deaths ner year would be l

caused by coal narticulates in total (3350 deaths / year). It is clear that this estimate of deaths (0.67/ reference reactor year) is large connared to any radiation health effects estimate in the FES, including uranium m'ning/ nuclear f uel cycle deaths which are the largest effect of radiation mentioned, ranging in Staff's opinion from about 0.27 deaths /RRY (100 - year estimate) to 2 deaths /RRY (1000-year estimate; both from rage C-8, nuclear fuel cycle effects).

This brings me to a fundamental misconcention in Dr.

~

, Hamilton's affidavit. He noints out that EPA has (in a , ,1982 staff document) estimated total narticulate concentrations of ex $$ to 110 micrograes/ cubic meter of TP (total narticulates) are of concern.

l He quotes them as saying (affidavit, p.h, bottom) that the 110 pg/m3 end of the range "may not include any margin of safety" (and then he uses that number, effectlysly, by taking 55 ug/m3 of fine narticulates, l

l

-5 (fine particulates being about half of total narticulates, see ibid n.8).

But the additional emissions of narticulates from the S-3 Table do not occur in a vacQum, i.e. they do not go into air with zero particulates in it. Rather, they go into air that already has a varticulate loading. So without at this noint going into the carcinongenic effects of particulates in the basis of 8F(1) (which Dr. Hamilton ignores),

we can say that the additional effect of the particulates added by the Table S-3 emissions will reasonably be related to health effects in pronortion to their amount, since the average loading of parbiculates in air is already in the 55 microgram ner cubic meter range (reference: 3/15/82 TOTAL SUSPENDED PA9TICULATES data for North Carolina,1981, see geometric mean and arithmetic mean for numerous stations renorting in NC). (c6ny attached, Exhibit 1).

(the forwarding letter from NC Div. of Enviro. Mgt, air cuality section, as Exhibit 2, is also attached). This comnletely undermines the alleged validity of noint 12 (p.5) of Hamilton's affidavit.

If particulate levels are already at or above the 55 ug/m 3 level, added narticulates (enrichment of fuel for Harris is an added use of electricity) would add to health effects.

Given this fact, Dr. Hamilton's own estimates as stated above i

show health effects from coal particulates at or above levels of health effects of radiation that were much better considered in the FES/LES than coal narticulates were.

l Of course, Applicants and Staff imnroperly connare estimated deaths due to coal particulates (and radiation) to total deaths that otherwise occur, but the point of the NEPA cost-benefit analysis for Harris is not to compare it to all other causes of death, but to connare its benefits to its environmental costs (including added deaths).

I note also that Dr. Hamilton for Applicants All but ignores the health effects of particulates other than deaths, thougP thesex are well known (aggravation of respiratory diseases, etc.: See, e.g.

Health Effects of the Gas-Aerosol Comnlex, Environmental Health Perspectives Dec. 1979 (copy attached) at p.197, bottom of 1st column and ton of second. See also, re acutely harmful effects, j ibid. pp 199-200. Note, p.200, it says health effects would be pronortional to.the density of the local ponulation, sunnorting Dr. Hamilton's numerical analysis on n/7 of his affidavit).

1 Dr.Hamiltononlysaysthatacut'eeffectsofexposureto coal particulates require the exposure be long-standing (iten l

16, affidavit p.8) . What is more long-standing than the oneration of a uraniun enrichment facility (load factor over 90%) for 30 years or so to enrich fuel for a Harris nuclear plant running for a 30-or-so year lifetime? The high load factor means the emissions will be near continuous (coal plants running sonewhere or other all the time l

to suoply the enrichment plant's continuous demand for nower), and

! the 30 years exeosure is certainly "long-standing". Dr. Hamilton i

doesn't really address these problems in his single paragraph aboutacuteandnon=deatheffectsofcoalyarticulates,andsurely therein does not orovide enough information for summary disposition as to these health effects.

Another counter to Applicants affiant saying health effects l

l may be zero is that of Perera & Ahned, 9espirable Particles (already i given to Applicants on discovery), pp h0-hh (cony of those tages l

These pages describe fine particle health effects in detail, w/refs.

attached). On page 41 it says a 1 percent reduction in total particulates could lead to an 0.23 to 0.89 percent reduction in pollution-related mortality. The pollution-related nortality alone in the US is estinated (Perera & Ahmed, n.1, cony attached) at 15000 to 100,000 Der year.

Thus, if we take the Staff DES (page C-4) estinate that 11k54 0.0$

MT of coal particulates is o.02% of US total emissions, they could be expected to cause a change of (0.23 to 0.89)xO.02 percent in the 15000 to 100p00 deaths per year due to pollution. This

~

number increase in deaths ner year, ish.6to17.8)x10 out of the 1.5 x 10b to 1 x 10 5 pollution-related &atths.

Thus, the upper limit of deaths would be 17.8 per year due to the S-3 emissions (17.8 x 10-3 x 10 5 ), while the lower limit would be 0.69 deaths / year (4.6 x 10 x 1.5 x 10'b). Note that the lower. limit here matches Dr. Hanilton's 0.67 deaths year fairly closely.

Staff takes a different anuroach (motion for summary disposition of Eddlenan contention 8F(1), December 2,1983). Admitting (ibid u.7) specific that the FES contains no _ . ' analysis of coal narticulate health effects, they clain these effects are insignificant while the FE_S only covers significant health effects (p.7, cuoting their affiant Billues at 5). As shown above, this argument is false on its face if one reads the DES /YES, which devote considerable space and specific discussion of health effects much smaller than those which, on the basis of Derera & Ahned's book or Dr. Hamilton's analysis for Applicants, occur from 1154 MT of coal particulates on a nationwide basis or a local basis near uranium-enrichment plants.

Staff characterizes my concerns with health effects (n.11) as " bald assertions" because I don't nyself know what the level of respiratory diseases, etc, would be if 115h MT of coal particulates were added to existing pollution levels. I suggest they read the basis documents of contention 8F2(1), which were cited on dis covery I

to by Anplicants (Staff has done no discovery on this contention)

Staff has not requested any of the

10/6/83 WE resnonse at 1h-15 i

documents cited in that resnonse, nor those in the basis of 8F1.

Neither Applicants' nor Staff's affiant states that he has reviewed ANY of these. Without review of these documents, how can their analysis be sufficient to dismiss this contention?

As noted above, the statements by Staff affiant Dr. Billuns about coal emissions not consistent with Table S-3 (e.g. up5-lh i 1

i of his affidavit) are a challenge to the rules and must not be considered in this croceeding.

As to the innact of the Thble S-3 narticulate emissions themselves, (

Dr. Billups anpears to argue baldly (pp2-3) that they are insignfficant, based on WASH 4248, He challenges the WASH-12h8 values on nage h, ,

S-3  !

arguing the emissions levels are conservative. So what? The value of emissions itself, he never describes any health effects analysis for.

These 1154 MT of narticulates are the issue in this proceeding.

Dr. Billups does advance the theory (p.k) that the eauivalent of h5 MWe is drawn fron he entire TVA power grid ner WASH-1[h8. f 6 9

  • reah sg 9%fNes 41(Al f.t 114; However, as shown abovt re US total particulate emissions and their health effects, there are health effects fron such a spread-out emission of coal particulates. In narticular, North Carolina is Exhibit 1 of ten down-wind of TVA, and NC particulate levels shown in attachment (referenced above) are often at or above the 55 ug/m3EPA says is of concern. Added narticulate would add to health effects therefron.

In sum, Anplicants' and Staff's arguments fail to even l

address (nor have their affiants evidently read) the health effects documents cited on discovery October 6 to Annlicants in resnonse to interrogatory 8F1-6 (copy attached, Exhibit h).

Most of their affidavits and argunent challenges the S-3 release value for coal narticulates,115h Metric Tons / year, which they may not do. ,

I Both Perera & Ahmed (un47 above) & Dr. Hamilton show health effects considered.

from coal narticulates at or above FES radiation effects

Dr. Hamilton is wrong to attribute zero health offects to additional particulate levels (which he figures by ' reasonable assumptions"

, his affidavit, up-3-h) to be added by the 115h MT of emissions in table S-3, because the actual narticulate levels i (e.g. in NC, Exhibit 1) are already at the EPA level of concern 3

($$ ug/m ) cited by Dr. Hamilton hinself (affid, pp h-5). Added pollution will thus add to the health effects, which Dr. Hamilton calculates himself at 0.1 to 0.67 deaths / reference reactor-year (i RRY is 1154 MT emissions in Table S-3). The coefficient of damage Dr. Hamilton used in this comnutation (n.7) is statistically significantly different x from zero by his own statement. The idea that zero "cannot be excluded" fron this number is a nossibility ,

one that likewise applies to radiation health effects considered in the FES/ DES (see FES p. 5-53). l 1

Finally, the FES does not consider the health effects of coal narticulates, in suite of the existence /adnission of contention 8F(1) since 8/18/83, as Staff adnits. How they can crgue that no consideration is an adequate consideration is sinnly beyond me.

The contention was that the FES gave inadequate consideration and insufficient weight to coal narticulate emissions. .

In view of only one sentence I've located being about them,  !

andcoalno weight assigned to them though the evidence discussed above narticulate d

If Staff wanted to get rid of this content $ or, they could simply have considered and veighed the health effects of coal carticulates in the FES. They didn't, the contention is still true on its face, and fo8fthe above reasone sunmary di snosition must fail, in light of the availbble evidence, e g. . tha t aN' l

SHORT LIST OF MATTEFS IN DISPUTE ON 8(F)(1)

1. Applicants and Staff challenge the rules in disnuting the 1154 MT coal particulate emir.sions given in Table S-3
2. It is valid, in light of anibient particulate concentrations (e.g. Exhibit 1, for NC,1981), to compute additional health effects due to earticulates at the 1154 MT level, whether emitted from specific plahts (Hamilton analysis for Aunlicants) or snread over the whole nation (Hanilton 0.67 deaths /yr; my ests nn 6-7 of above resnonse relying on Perera & Ahmed and their references). This is also true if the 1154 MT emissions are localized to the TVA grid.

i 3 The additional deaths resulting from 115k MT emissions range fron 0.1 to 17.8 deaths added rer reference reactor yeat under l

reasonable assumntiens including (at the lower end) analysis by i Dr. Hamilton for Applicants , and (at the unner end) analysis based l

on Perera & Ahned data (p.1 of book & refs on p.1) and Dr. Hamilton's adopted danage function.

h. the Harvard damage function used by Dr. Hamilton, 1.n3 + 0.6 deaths per 100,000 persons ner year ner microgran/m3 of fine particulates ,

is in fact statistically different from zero.

5. The FES contains no enecific analysis of health effects of coal particulates.
6. The FES does go on for pages and nages about radiation health effects, e.g. those from plant radiation nut at 0.008/9RY.
7. The FES analyzes, says Scaff, "significant" effects. B111uns staff affidavit at 5, on page 2.
8. The coal particulate damages from 115h MT of na rticulates calculated by Dr. Hamilton are larger than many innacts analyzed in the FES (e.g. 0.1 death /RRY, his low est, is greater then 0.008 deaths) 9 Neither An licants nor Staff address the non-death health effects of coal pS11ution enough to get disposition on this point.
10. Exposure to c oal long term and continuous. pollution due to enriching uraniun is --

Dear Mr. Eddleman:

Thank you for your interest and questions regarding air pollution. In response to your questions we provide the following:

(1) What is DNRCD doing about sulfate pollution in the air? North Carolina has both emission standards and ambient air standards for sulfur dioxide.

Most ambient air sulfates are believed to be the reaction product of sulfur dioxide and other substances in the air.

(2a) How many air quality samples does the State take monthly in North Carolina 7 In excess of 25,000 samples / month are collected by State and local agencies. The State and local agencies operated both manual and continuous ambient air samplers. Manual samplers have been operated for total sus-pended particulate, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and lead. These samplers operate every 6th day. As of Second Quarter 1982 there were 93 TSP, 25 SO2, 27 NO and 3 Pb samplers. Currently the manual network size is being reduced Continuous monitors operate continuously. Data are normally reported on an hourly average basis. Each of the 34 continuous monitors can produce 720 hourly averages per month.

Attached for your information is a summary of the 1981 data. We are 7 currently adding 14 additional continuous monitors to the sampling network.

b) How many are taken by industry? Not all industries are required to report data that is collected. We are unable to provide a count of those not reporting data they collect for their own use.

l There are seven industries either required or voluntarily reporting ambient air data. Some industries are reporting both "cri teria" and "non-criteria" pollutants. Most industries (of those reporting) are collecting the more costly continuous samples. Currently in excess of 7300 ambient samples per month are collected by industry.

Mr. Walla Eddleman 2 October 25, 1982 In addition to continuous ambient monitoring, there are in excess of 50 industrial facilities conducting continuous emissions monitoring. Opacity and sulfur dioxide are most frequently measured. Many industries also sample and analyze fuel samples in order to determine sulfur dioxide emissions from fuel burning processes. Fuel sample information is not usually reported to the State, unless required by permit.

c) By universities, or researchers? Ambient monitoring has taken place at many universities and technical institutes across the state, but primarily for educational purposes. Research type projects have been conducted at Appalachian State University, North Carolina State University, and Uni-versity of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, among others.

The National Atmospheric Deposition Program collects weekly acid-rain -

samples at seven sites.

Numerous ambient air research projects have been conducted by the Research Triangle Institute, and EPA located in the Research Triangle Park.

-as We encourage you to visit our headquarter's offices and review the data file if more information is needed. If you have questions, please call me at (919)733-6126.

A Brief Summary

+ back uf Q Eight years after the passage of the Clean Air Act Amend-ments of 1970, air pollution continues to take a devas-tating toll. Every year at least 15,000 people die from exposure to pollutants in the air;* millions more suffer from debili-tating illness caused by air pollutants.' In addition to inflicting this severe and costly injury to health, air pollution destroys visibility, l damages property and crops, and seriously threatens the natural environment. Thus air pollution costs many billions of dollars each year.88 Increasing evidence places much of the blame for this on one class of air pollutants that remains virtually unregulated today-atmospheric fine particulates.8

  • Fine particulates are generally defined as particles smaller than 1

] to 2 micrometers in diameter-or roughly one-fiftieth the width of a i

j human hair. Because of their small size, fine particulates pose a serious threat to human health. They are small enough to elude the body's defense system and to be breathed deep into the lower lung, i

' where they can remain for long periods before being cleared.5 Fine particulates are generally man-made and result from com-

'bustion, industrial, and transportation processes.' They are either directly emitted or, more often are formed in the atmosphere from gaseous precursors (SO 2 , NO,, hydrocarbons, etc.) that are gen-

' erated by these same processes.* Fine particulates reach very large

" Estimates of air pollution related deaths range as high as 100,000 deaths per year [L.B. Lave, E.P. Seskin, Epidemiology, causality and Public Policy *',

As mentioned earlier, death rates from chronic respiratory disease have been rising steadily in the United States and are considerably higher for people living in urban areas than for the rural popu-lation.
