Particulate matter air pollution control programs in Japan — an analysis of health risks in the absence of future remediation
The objective of this case study was to assess potential health risks and productivity loss in the absence of future additional environmental control of particulate matter (PM) in Japan. Assuming a 10% decline in PM, the estimates of the numbers of possible cases of premature mortality and morbidity that could be prevented in the year 2010 were (1) 8700 long term deaths, (2) 12,000 cases of chronic bronchitis, (3) 24,000 cases of cardiovascular d…
Particulate matter air pollution control programs in Japan — an analysis of cost savings in the absence of future remediation
The objectives of this study were to assess avoided economic costs (or anticipated ‘benefits’) of not implementing new environmental policies for particulate matter (PM) in Japan and compare these future benefits to estimates of future health risks developed in a separate analysis. The estimates for the benefits of avoided PM pollution control in the year 2010 were (1) $27 billion USD for stationary source controls, (2) $2.1 billion to $3.3 billi…
Cost Analysis of Particulate Matter Control Programs – A Case Study of Tokyo
The objectives of this case study were to assess economic costs of existing environmental policies of particulate matter (PM) in Tokyo and compare the costs to estimates of benefits developed previously. The purchasing power parity-adjusted one year estimates for the costs of PM pollution control and prevention were: (1) $720 million (USD) for stationary source controls, (2) a range of $690 million to $1.1 billion for diesel motor vehicle control…
Benefits analysis of particulate matter control programs – a case study of Tokyo
The objective of this case study was to assess economic benefits of past environmental policies of particulate matter (PM) in Tokyo by comparing observed pre‐control PM levels in 1975 and post‐control levels in 1998. The point estimates of the numbers of additional cases of avoided premature mortality and morbidity due to PM pollution control were (1) 3900 long‐term deaths in adults aged 30 years and older (population 5 098 000), (2) 4700 cases o…
Feasibility of cost‐benefit analysis for particulate matter air pollution control in Japan
In the present study, we identified cost benefit analysis (CBA) procedures and data availability to determine the programme feasibility of conducting an ex post CBA for particulate matter of a ten micron nominal diameter (PM‐10) air pollution control in Japan. This paper describes Freeman's benefits methodology to use for the benefits portion of the CBA, and the paper shows the US Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) costs methodology suppleme…
