Testimony

Kevin J. Boyle, Ph.D.

On behalf

R08-9

(Rulemaking - Water)

The People

ofthe State of Illinois

August 4, 2008

Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk's Office, August 4, 2008

What is your name and address?

Kevin J. Boyle, 275 Orchard Hill Lane, Newport, VA 24128.

On whose behalf are you testifying?

I am testifying on behalf of the People of the State of Illinois.

What is the purpose of your testimony?

The purpose of this testimony is to present the results of my analysis of the

economic benefits

of water quality improvements associated with the new

recreational use designations proposed for the Chicago Area Waterway System

(CAWS).

Based on this analysis I conclude that the total, present value

of these

economic benefits is, conservatively, $1.05 billion, or $47 per household per year.

These benefits reflect the amount that Cook County households are willing to pay

to achieve the proposed water quality improvements and associated recreational

use designations. Willingness to pay

is based on preferences for recreational

opportunities, concern about health risks, and a sense

of responsibility and

stewardship toward ecosystems and water resources.

Would you please summarize your qualifications and experience?

I am Professor and Head of the Department of Agricultural and Applied

Economics at Virginia Polytechnic University. My area

of expertise is non-

market valuation methods that are used to compute monetary values for natural

resources and changes

in environmental quality. My research includes

applications

of these methods to value changes in surface water and groundwater

quality.

Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk's Office, August 4, 2008

I am co-editor of a book that is a basic reference on the state-of-the-art in

non-market valuation methods,

A Primer on Nonmarket Valuation.

This book

provides a guide for the conduct

of each of the basic methods of valuing changes

in environmental quality. I have published over 70 peer-reviewed journal articles

on public preferences'and values for changes

in environmental quality, including

changes

in water quality.

I have many years

of experience with the valuation method I use in this

testimony: benefit transfer. I co-authored an article titled

Benefit Transfer

Studies: Myths, Pragmatism and Idealism,

that is one of the most cited papers on

benefit transfer

in the economics literature.

I also have extensive experience leading studies that value improvements

in water quality. I have conducted studies that investigate the economic benefits

of reducing eutrophication in surface waters, protecting households from arsenic

in drinking water, and protecting groundwater from contamination.

I have an extensive record

of public service relating to the valuation of

natural resources and environmental quality. I served as a peer reviewer for an

EPA study

of the benefits of water quality improvements in coastal states, as well

as a report that computed economic benefits attributable to the first 25 years

of the

Clean Water Act.

In addition, I have provided expert support

in several natural resource

damage assessments for federal and state Trustees that have involved injuries to

surface water and associated impacts to recreation and ecological services. I have

also provided testimony

in State rulemakings on a variety of environmental

Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk's Office, August 4, 2008

issues, including reductions in dioxin emissions from paper mills and fish-

consumption advisories.

A copy of my Vitae is attached as Exhibit 1.

I. SUMMARY OF TESTIMONY

1'8

Would you please summarize your testimony?

I follow a general framework for estimating economic benefits that is

consistent with EPA's 1995

Interim Economic Guidance for Water Quality

Standards

("Interim Guidance"), which was appended to lEPA's initial filing in

this docket. lEPA

Statement ofReasons,

Attachment C. Specifically, I examine

total benefits to households, which include "use" and "intrinsic" benefits

(Appendix C, Sections

C.l and C.2). Use benefits arise from peoples' direct use

of a resource (for example, water-based recreation on the CA WS). "Intrinsic" or

nonuse benefits arise when people value a change

in water quality even if they

will never use the CAWS.

My approach is also consistent with

EPA's 2000

Guidelinesfor Preparing

Economic Analyses.

The guidelines are general and can be applied to all types of

environmental improvements, including improvements in water quality.

Specifically, I conduct a 'benefit-transfer'analysis, where .information from

existing economic studies

is combined with local, site-specific information.

Benefit transfer

is an established economic procedure that uses existing

economic-benefit information to develop a specific economic benefit that

customized for a new application. Benefit transfer can be used to develop

Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk's Office, August 4, 2008

. I

economic benefits for a variety of changes in environmental quality and a change

in water quality is a common application.

My analysis indicates that improved water quality associated with the

proposed recreational use designation changes will result in economic benefits

that, conservatively, have a present value of $1.05 billion over 20 years, or $47

per household per year.

II. SCOPE OF TESTIMONY

What is the scope of your testimony?

My testimony focuses on the economic benefits of improvements in

CAWS water quality associated with the upgraded recreational use designations

proposed by IEPA. IEPA

Statement ofReasons,

Attachment H. The water

quality improvements will occur with the implementation

of wastewater

disinfection at the North Side, Stickney and Calumet wastewater treatment plants.

Water quality

is an environmental asset that provides flows of services to

society. The economic benefits

of improved services to society from enhanced

CA WS water quality can be measured

in terms of what households are willing to

pay to obtain the improvement

in water quality. This type of economic-benefit

analysis

is routinely used to support public decision-making, environmental rule-

makings and to compute monetary damages (that is, compensation payments)

natural resource damage cases.

The economic benefits I report reflect the amounts that local households

are willing to pay for the proposed water quality improvements and upgraded

recreational use designations. I compute a total economic benefit that includes

Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk's Office, August 4, 2008

use and non-use benefits. Use benefits occur when households enjoy recreational

use of the improved water resource. Non-use benefits occur when households

enjoy improved water quality even if they will never use the waters for recreation

or any other purpose.

The analysis presented in this testimony calculates a customized economic

benefit using information from 18 existing studies to develop a value applicable to

the CAWS and Cook County households.

III. APPROACH TO ESTIMATING ECONOMIC BENEFITS

What is the approach you followed to compute economic benefits?

I use the benefit-transfer method to analyze economic benefits. The

benefit-transfer method

is formally recognized in EPA's 2000

Guidelinesfor

Preparing Economic Analyses

and Office of Management and Budget's("OMB")

2003 Guidance on Development ofRegulatory Analysis.

Specifically, my

analysis involves five steps that are consistent with

EPA's guidelines.

I use results from a 2007 study by Van Houtven, Powers, and Pattanayak

that summarizes the results

of 18 existing studies that measure the economic

benefits

of water quality improvements. This summary of economic benefits is

based on water quality index values and several equations, which I adapt to

develop an economic-benefit measure that

is customized to households in Cook

County.

First, I describe the policy case. The policy case is the proposed change

use designation for the CAWS and associated water quality improvements arising

Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk's Office, August 4, 2008

from wastewater disinfection. This includes the identification of current water

quality conditions and the improved level

of water quality.

Second, I identified relevant studies. The Van Houtven study I cite above

used a Meta-analysis to statistically summarize the results from

18 existing

studies valuing changes

in water quality. The statistical summary includes an

equation that 1 use to compute an economic benefit for improved water quality

the CAWS.

Third, 1 reviewed the study for quality and applicability to the policy-case

rulemaking. With respect to quality, the Van Houtven study was published

in the

peer-reviewed journal

Resource and Energy Economics.

The Meta-analysis

equation provides the basis for a benefit-function transfer, which has been

demonstrated to be the most accurate type

of benefit-transfer analysis. The study

is also applicable to the policy-case rulemaking. First, the 18 studies used in the

Meta-analysis all measured the economic benefits for changes

in surface water

quality. Second, the Meta-analysis equation includes variables that allow

measures

of the current (baseline) and improved (change) in CA WS water quality

to be included

in the analysis using a 1O-point water quality index. Third, the

affected populations are similar. The Meta-analysis equation also includes

variables that reflect population characteristics, household income and percent

population that are users of the water resource. This allows me to customize the

economic benefit to Cook County households.

Fourth, I transfer the economic benefit. The Meta-analysis equation

used to conduct a benefit-function transfer that computes an economic benefit that

Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk's Office, August 4, 2008

is specific to the proposed CAWS water quality change and customized to

households in Cook County.

Finally I address uncertainty in two ways. First, lower and upper bounds

are calculated to develop a range of economic benefits. This range of benefits

reflects alternative modeling assumptions that could lead to error in the computed

economic benefit. Second, I apply an adjustment to address potential

overstatement of economic benefits. The 18 existing studies used a survey-based

method that is commonly referred to as the stated-preference method. A concern

with the stated-preference method is that survey respondents answer hypothetical

valuation questions and their responses may indicate values that are higher than

they would actually pay. To address this potential overstatement I reduce the

benefit-function transfer result by 33 percent. This adjustment is based on

research which shows that willingness to pay using cash transactions is about two-

thirds that of willingness to pay from hypothetical, stated-preference questions.

IV. CALCULATION OF ECONOMIC BENEFITS

How did you calculate the economic benefits of water quality improvements

associated with the proposed changes to recreational use designations?

I used an equation that includes variables and coefficients that are defined

in Exhibit 2.

Key variables

in the equation measure changes in water quality on a ten-

point index scale. This water quality index includes nine measures

of water

quality: dissolved oxygen, fecal coliform density, pH, biochemical oxygen

demand, nitrates, phosphates, temperature, turbidity, and total solids.

Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk's Office, August 4, 2008

Metropolitan Water Reclamation District (MWRD) monitoring data were

used to compute a current water-quality index value

of 6.1 on the 1O-point scale.

The expected improvement

in CAWS water quality was based on a range of

values for fecal coliform reductions provided in the testimony of Scott Twait of

IEPA (29 January, p. 190-192), resulting in a change of 0.7 in the water quality

index,

or an increase in the index value from 6.1 to 6.8 on the 1O-point scale.

Additional variables

in the equation reflect average household income for

Cook County ($62,488, according to the 1999 Census), and the percentage

Cook County households that are users of the river. Here, I used data from a 1986

survey

of Chicago and surrounding community residents that found that 10

percent

of households were CAWS users (including water-based recreation and

"outings" such as picnicking, hiking and photography). This percentage

is likely

an underestimate because recreational use and quality

of the CA WS has increased

over time.

The remaining variables

in the equation reflect characteristics of

economic-benefit study designs and implementation. Here, I apply values that

represent best-practice

in stated-preference valuation. One variable indicates

whether the value was published

in a peer-reviewed book or journal. I assign this

variable a value

of one to indicate a study that has been peer reviewed for quality.

Another variable

is a measure of the response rate to the survey used to collect the

economic-benefit data. 1 assign this variable a value

of 80 percent because it is

the response rate recommended in OMB's 2006

Standards and Guidelinesfor

Statistical Surveys.

The third variable indicates whether the value was derived

Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk's Office, August 4, 2008

from a survey that was administered through an in-person interview (as opposed

to mail or phone administration). I assign this variable a value of one, which is

consistent with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Blue

Ribbon Panel recommendations for administration of stated-preference studies via

in-person interviews. The final variable reflects the year in which the study that

produced the economic benefit was published, less 1973. I assign this variable a

value of27, which reflects the date of the most recent study (from 2000) from the

18 studies used in the Meta-analysis.

I use a linear equation model where all variables are statistically

significant to compute the household economic benefit. To address potential error

in my benefit-transfer analysis, I calculate a range of per-household annual

economic benefits based on alternative equations. One equation is linear and

includes variables that are statistically significant in explaining changes in

economic benefits and variables that are not statistically significant. The other

equation is log-linear and includes the same variables as the linear equation.

I then reduce the economic-benefit value by 33 percent to account for

potential over-statement in stated-preference data.

V. ECONOMIC BENEFITS

What is the result of your analysis?

Based on my analysis of the economic benefits of water quality

improvements associated with the proposed changes to recreational use

designations, I conclude that the total, present value

of economic benefits to

Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk's Office, August 4, 2008

households in Cook County over a 20-year period beginning in 2010 are,

conservatively, $1.05 billion.

How did you calculate the per-household economic benefit?

The computed annual household economic benefit is approximately $57 in

year 2000 dollars. Applying the adjustment for potential over-statement,

discussed above, the annual economic benefit

is reduced to $39 per household in

2000 dollars. I further adjust the economic-benefit measure to 2008 dollars using

the Consumer Price Index and arrive at a value

of $47 per household per year.

Using .alternative specifications

of the benefit-transfer function I calculate

a lower bound

of $23 per household per year and an upper bound of $57 per

household per year.

How many households will experience the benefit?

Most households in Cook County will benefit from the improvement in

CAWS water quality (see Figure 1, Exhibit 3). The affected waters are major

waterways

in Cook County and are easily accessible to Cook County residents.

I used a survey response rate

of 80 percent to compute the household economic-

benefit measure. I follow common practice and assign an economic benefit

of $0

to households who would not have answered the survey. Thus, I conservatively

include only 80-percent

of Cook County households when calculating total annual

economic benefits from the CAWS water-quality improvement.

The 2006 Census data indicate that there are approximately 1.9 million

households

in Cook County. After applying the 80-percent adjustment, total

Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk's Office, August 4, 2008

annual economic benefits are approximately $73 million, with a range of $36 to

$87 million.

How long will Cook County households experience the benefits of improved

water quality?

The improved water quality in the CAWS can be expected to continue to

perpetuity. The present value

of total household economic benefits is $1.05

billion, with a range

of$513 million to $1.26 billion. This present value of

economic benefits is based on a three-percent discount rate, a 20 year time

horizon that begins

in 2010, and a constant number of households (using 2006

levels).

Is your economic-benefit measure conservative?

My economic-benefit analysis is conservative in the sense that it most

likely understates the true economic benefits

of the proposed water quality

improvement and associated changes

in recreational use designations. The

analysis

is conservative for the following reasons:

1) The benefits of improved water quality are likely to extend well beyond 20

years.

2) Households outside

of Cook County may be willing to pay for improved water

quality

in the CAWS.

3) The use

of 10 percent in the benefit-function transfer to reflect the portion of

population that are CAWS users is likely understated because recreational

activity has increased significantly since 1986.

Electronic Filing - Received, Clerk's Office, August 4, 2008

4) Research indicates that a 33% adjustment for hypothetical bias may be too

large. I co-authored a 2008 study entitled

Provision Rules and the Incentive

Compatibility ofChoice Surveys

that found that it is only necessary to reduce

economic benefit by

18 percent.

5) Some of the households who do not respond to a stated-preference survey will

still hold value for the water quality improvements.

Are there other economic studies that demonstrate that households are

willing to pay for water quality improvements?

Yes, there are numerous economic studies that have examined the effect of

water quality on prices of nearby residential properties. Studies that

have

conducted indicate that improvements

in water clarity increase sale prices of

waterfront properties. Of particular relevance, Brashares found in her 1985

dissertation

Estimating the Instream

~alue

ofLake Water Quality in Southeast

Michigan

that increases in fecal coliform levels reduce prices of lakefront

properties near Detroit, Michigan. More recently, Leggett and Bockstael report

their 2000 article

Evidence ofthe Effects of Water Quality on Residential Land

Prices

in the

Journal ofEnvironmental Economics and AJanagement

that a 100-

count reduction in fecal coliform increases property values by roughly $5,000 to

$10,000 along the Chesapeake Bay

in Maryland. These property-value studies

clearly indicate that the public will pay for improved water quality.

VI. CONCLUSION

Does this conclude your testimony?

Yes.
