Final Ozone NAAQS RIA Draft 1 for your review

Hi Heidi,

     Attached are the first three chapters for a first draft review of
the Final Ozone NAAQS RIA.  More chapters will follow in subsequent
emails.  This draft does not include extrapolated cost numbers or
benefit numbers, but we've made every effort to get to you something as
complete as possible to review while we wrap up the work for these
sections.  Below is a table of contents to give you a big-picture
overview of the structure of the document.  We started by editing the
Proposal document and have "tracked changes" in MS Word.    You will see
all of our deletions and additions from proposal when you open the word
documents.  If you want to view a clean version without the changes
highlighted, from the MS Word menu, go to "view" and "markup".  This
toggles between visible and hidden changes.  We were hoping that
tracking our changes would help to streamline your review efforts.  Let
us know if you liked this approach and let me know if you have any
trouble with the files.  I also want to add one caveat.  We've added
some chapters, so there may be some references within the document that
don't call-out the right chapter number.  We are working to fix these
and will have it resolved prior to the next draft.

Thanks,

Janet
