Ozone Final RIA Chapters for Distribution to OMB (Executive Summary -
ch. 3)

Heidi, 

Thank you for the time you spent with us today working out our remaining
outstanding issues.  Attached to this and the following emails is a full
version of the ozone NAAQS RIA.   This version is complete and reflects
all agreed to edits and changes.  The chapters and appendices I am
transmitting tonight exclude the Cost Effectiveness Analysis and UVB
analysis that OPEI indicated they would be sending separately on our
call today.  Additionally, concurrent with your review, contractors will
be changing chapter numbers and references to reflect our agreement to
make Ch. 6 an appendix to Ch. 5.  

Typically these chapters would make their way to you via OPEI, however
due to the unusual circumstances regarding our deadline, and the need
for after-hours delivery, there was no person available at OPEI to
transmit it, so I am cc'ing them for their records.

Please let me know if you have any trouble with the files.  Hopefully
they will get to you tonight.  I have assigned high priority to the
emails so that the system does not delay their delivery for off-peak net
usage hours.

Thanks,

Janet
