RE: PRB new language, in context for your review









Hi Margie,

Weren't you going to mention that higher PRB and/or CanMex contributions

would make attainment that much more difficult (i.e., fewer available

anthropogenic contributions to control in order to meet alternative

standards). This would make attainment more costly and uncertain and

would make achieving benefits more uncertain to that extent.  

I do not agree that PRB has no role in the RIA estimates.

Rob
