(D)significant in compounding the effects of drug and alcohol abuse, and already costing business
(E)significant in compounding the effects of drug and alcohol abuse, and already costs business

Choices D and E produce faulty constructions with the phrase significant in compounding, which cannot grammatically modify the verb form is growing
