Heidi, Janet did what I asked and in hindsight I screwed up.   The draft

California footnote is too long to be included along with every table.

We are going to take another shot at it and get back to you.

Heidi,

 Below are the data tables you asked for at our meeting.  Attached below

is also the elusive "slide 22" that somehow got lost on our end before

the briefing materials made their way to you.

You also asked about how we would characterize the 2020 numbers to be as

transparent as possible in communicating that our primary analysis does

not include San Joaquin and South coast in 2030.  We've developed a

standard footnote that we will use throughout the document and I've

pasted that text below for your review.

I'm working on further discussions of M and social costs and will get

Margaret to schedule something with you when we're ready.  I'll try to

move as quickly as I can on our end.

We'll be talking with you further today at 2:00 about the baseline

issue.  Thanks for holding your baseline questions and concerns until

that meeting.  Talk with you then.

Let me know if you need any further information.

Thanks,

-Janet

Draft California Footnote......

   Attainment dates will be determined in the future through the SIP

   process based on criteria in the CAA, future air quality data, and

   future rulemakings and are not knowable at this time.  For analytical

   simplicity, and in keeping with the proposal analysis, we have chosen

   to use an analysis year of 2020 and generally assume attainment in

   that year.  The exception is the San Joaquin and South Coast

   California areas where SIP submittals for the current standard show

   that they would have current standard attainment dates later than

   2020.  For these two areas in California, we are assuming a new

   standard attainment date of 2030.  Estimates of the costs and

   benefits of attaining .075 and the alternate air quality standards

   for these two areas in 2030 not included in the primary benefit/cost

   analysis and are provided in Appendix 10b.
