2 INTRODUCTION Economic Impact Study Previous Studies Project Timeline Study Features 2

3 Economic Impact Study Measures or estimates the change in economic activity in a specified region, caused by a specific business, organization, policy, program, project, activity, or other economic event Study region can be a neighborhood, town, city, county, statistical area, state, country, continent, or the entire globe Measures changes in business revenue, business profits, personal wages, and/or jobs Sources of economic impacts - Direct - Indirect - Induced Methodologies I/O (input/ output) - RIMS II - EMSI - IMPLAN 3

4 Previous Studies/Reports Value Added to Recyclable Materials in the Northeast - US Dept. of Commerce (1994) Recommendations to the EPA for Conducting a Study of the U.S. Recycling and Reuse Industries - Northeast Recycling Council (NERC) (1997) Recycling Economic Information Study - NERC (2000) US Recycling Economic Information Study - Phase II of 2000 NERC Report (2001) Recycling Economic Information Study Update - NERC (2009) The Economic Impacts of the Municipal Waste Collection, Transportation, Recycling, and Disposal Industry in PA - Pennsylvania Waste Industry Association (PWIA) (2003) Economic Impact Study - US-Based Scrap Recycling Industry - Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries - (ISRI) (2013) 4

12 Study Features Modeling IMPLAN (IMpact analysis for PLANning) MIG, Inc. (formerly Minnesota IMPLAN Group) responsible for production of model data and software Created in 1970 s through collaboration between the U.S. Forest Service, FEMA, and University of Minnesota to assess impacts of land management options In 1988, offered IMPLAN software and data to non-forest Service users - Improved versions created since Utilizes a social accounting system that describes transactions that occur between producers, and intermediate, and final consumers Includes multipliers to describe secondary impacts 12

13 Study features Key IMPLAN Outputs 13

14 Study features Key Metrics Assessed Employment - Includes wage, salary, and self-employment jobs Value Added (Contribution to Pennsylvania Gross State Product) - Definition: an industry s or an establishment s total output less the cost of intermediate inputs - Further divided into labor income, other property taxes and indirect business taxes Labor Income - Captures all forms of employment income, including wages and benefits, employer-paid payroll taxes, unemployment taxes, and Proprietor income Government Revenue - Includes taxes and other related revenues on Federal, State and Local levels 14
