Under CAMA, a given classification is based on consideration of nine different factors, one of which is any other factor DEQ deems relevant to the establishment of risk. In the case of off -site impacts to private wells, the data and peer -reviewed modeling confirm that excavation provides no real benefit in comparison to capping the material in place or other innovative/sustainable solutions. This conclusion was anticipated by the U.S. EPA in its CCR rule. Similarly, six Environmental Impact Statements prepared by the Tennessee Valley Authority in December of 2015 confirmed that excavation would not meaningfully improve groundwater quality while creating new risks. The EPA explicitly requires consideration of the associated impacts to the environment with any excavation, transportation, and re -disposal of material (p. 21488, Selection of Remedy, Part 257.97). For sites in which groundwater/surface water impacts are the primary risk drivers, employing excavation as a remedy creates additional risk. The additional risk from excavation and transporting ash from one location to another is greater than the risk posed by leaving the ash in place. The table below provides estimates of the risk associated with excavation, transportation and ecological disturbance. For example, one out of eight traffic fatalities in 2005 resulted from a collision involving a large truck' such as would be moving ash from various sites. Ecologically, disturbance scales directly with volume of ash moved and distance traveled. Consideration Classification Low Excavation Optional Intermediate OR High Excavation Required Fatal In' — For Excavation minimum risk 0 1.10E-7 / hour a Non -fatal In'u — For Excavation minimum risk 0 6.6E-5 / hour a Fatal In'u — Transportation minimum risk) 0 2.8E-8 / mile b Non -fatal In'u — Transportation (minimum risk) 0 8.4E-7 / mile b Life Cycle Analysis — Carcinogen impact Pt 573 ° 22,500 ° Life Cycle Analysis — Ecotoxici Pt 132 ° 3,650 Life Cycle Analysis — Fossil Fuels Pt 141,000 ° 3,590,000 Life Cycle Analysis — Acidification / Eutro hication Pt 5,540 209,000 Notes: (a) Risk values for fatalities and injuries taken from Dr. Lisa Bradley, Haley & Aldrich, data from Oak Ridge National Laboratory. 1.1E-7 = 1.1 x 10-' = 1.1 / 107 = 0.00000011 = One fatality for every 9,090,909 man-hours 6.6E-5 = 6.6 x 10-5 = 6.6 / 105 = 0.000066 = One non -fatal injury for every 15,151 man-hours (b) Risk values for fatalities and injuries taken from Dr. Lisa Bradley, Haley & Aldrich, data from U.S. Department of Transportation. 2.8E-8 = 2.8 x 10 = 2.8 / 10' = 0.000000028 = One fatality for every 35,714,285 truck -miles 8.4E-7 = 8.4 x 10-7 = 8.4 / 107 = 0.00000084 = One non -fatal injury for every 1,190,476 truck -miles (c) Point values taken from SimaPro 8 Analysis, Eco-Indicator Results, as performed by Dr. Krishna Reddy, P.E., University of Illinois at Chicago (see Appendix). Point (Pt) values represent a standard Eco-Indicator value, as computed for one site. Pt values are dimensionless, derived from normalizing impacts relative to established databases for each category (e.g., ecotoxicity). The absolute number of points is not meaningful except in comparison across scenarios.
