Abstract Due to this first attempt by EPA to examine the cumulative effects of projected regulations on small businesses, some of which are in the early stages of development, the findings of the study are best considered as preliminary. The small business study focused on nine industries likely to be adversely affected by the regulations. The study found that the costs may be high for small businesses in three of the industries - electroplating, wood preserving, and pesticide formulating. If the costs for hazardous waste and toxic chemical controls prove to be as high as estimated and cannot be passed on to consumers, some small businesses in these industries may be forced to discontinue operations or to close. Some small dry cleaners that have underground storage tanks or require substantial perchlorethylene emissions controls may have difficulty meeting the requirements. Gas stations, trucking firms, and farm supply stores with leaking underground storage tanks also may have difficulty.
