Heidi -- It would be many, many humongous data files - way too much to email. (Mobile source data 

alone would be 80+ enormous files, for example.) We can explain in more detail when we talk, with the 

relevant staff present. 

Have a great holiday too!

Thanks, Kathy. I'm copying Lydia on this message.

Could EPA please provide an estimate of the amount of the data and resources 

required? That would be a helpful next step.

Thanks, and have a great holiday,

heidi

Heidi - We ran this by Lydia, and we'd like to meet to discuss this request 

on Monday (most of us are out the rest of this week).

We're concerned about the resources that would be involved in responding to 

the request, so we'd like to discuss the reasons for it. The amount of data 

involved is enormous (much more than you asked for SO2).
 Also, Lydia requests that she be cc'd on RIA-related inquiries.

Thanks. Let us know how you'd like to proceed. (Note I'm actually leaving at 

2:45 today, and gone the rest of the week).

Hi Ron

We appreciate your work ensuring that the public has an opportunity to see the 

data underlying the full attainment cost estimates for the SO2 NAAQS. We 

would like to ensure that the public (and we) also have access to comparable 

information for the reconsideration of the ozone NAAQS. In that vein we 

request that you please send us a spreadsheet providing, for each 

nonattainment area (county)

1) the costs and the projected emissions reductions for each emissions control

2) the emissions cuts necessary to meet different standards, starting from the 

2020 baseline

3) the baseline emissions by sector (e.g., EGU, non EGU, mobile sources)

4) the baseline emissions by fuel source (e.g., coal, natural gas, diesel, 

gasoline, aviation fuel, etc.)

Please let me know if you’d like to discuss, or if the request is vague.

Best, as always,

heidi
