Abstract
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency issued effluent limitations for the Porcelain Enameling Industry in November 1982. This report estimates the economic impacts of pollution control costs for approximately 100 plants. The analysis focuses on price and production effects, potential changes in profitability, and plant closures. For one segment of the industry, comprised mostly of small plants, potentially significant impacts are projected. Regulatory alternatives to identify this segment and minimize the impact are also analyzed.
