RE: Edits missing in reformatted Pb RIA Chapters for OMB?

I sent a fax to Lydia's fax machine earlier this afternoon --

I'll you call now to speak to it.

Also, Ron I apologize, but I will be out of office tomorrow.  I return

Monday morning.  If you could copy Nancy on the C-R memo that would be

great.

Heidi,

I have asked Kathy to specifically track the changes and provide

something which shows you the changes.   Hopefully this will be ready by

noon tomorrow.   We will have the short memo on the C-R analysis to you

tomorrow.

By the way, how close is Art on his paragraph?

Hi Ron,

I could not find some of the edits we had agreed to in previous

conversation, particularly in the cost chapters.  Perhaps you could

point me in the right direction if I have overlooked them (or remind me

if I have failed to remember a subsequent conversation).

Those edits include:

- Discussion of/estimates associated with the monitoring costs, separate

from engineering costs.  As I recall, EPA had intended to incorporate

estimates from the ICR, including the cost of network deployment, since

this rule does in fact include this implementation aspect?

- Edits to tables to reflect a framework for estimating costs to full

attainment.  I believe we had all understood that the RIA would

consistently reflect full attainment in tables, which means that there

is a cost associated with air qual improvements beyond known and unknown

controls on identified sources.  I see edits to the table in Chapt 6

where "+c" had been added, but the other tables in Chap 6 do not reflect

that total cost to attainment, nor the incremental additional air

quality improvements required to achieve attainment.

- Other conforming edits to text were not consistently made throughout

each of these chapters, most of these are smaller items (ex: deleting

"and welfare" from "health and welfare" effects, since this RIA

estimates the health endpoint only but no Secondary Standard Welfare

Effects).  I have noted them in detail and will call Margaret to set up

time for us to walk line-by-line to make sure we cover them all together

early next week.

Thanks very much,

Heidi

Subject: reformatted Pb RIA Chapters for OMB

Heidi, I think we uncovered the problem.   It was one of those classic

cases where when you look at the screen the tables appeared fine.

However, the formatting for the tables was not maintained when the

document was printed.   Kathy has fixed this problem, the offending

tables from the last version should now both view and print the same.

Let me know if this does not address the problem you raised.

I think this version is ready (just need to clean up the highlighted

language once you have reviewed it) to be finalized.    Pending hearing

from Bob and Art on their conversations about the C-R function issue and

its presentation in the proposal RIA, we are proceeding to work on the

final RIA.   In a few weeks we will get back to you with the design of

the final (addressing the points raised during your review of the

proposal RIA as well as things we plan to improve as well) RIA.

Talk to you soon.

Heidi -- here's the chapters of the RIA with the new frontpiece

(chapters 1, 5, 6, 7, and the Exec Summary), as well as the new chapter

4 with added tables.  I just sent it through Eileen Pritchard in OPEI,

but in the interest of time am also forwarding courtesy copies directly

to you.

Thanks.
