Hi Cortney,
One other piece of information that I thought would be of interest to you is 
the estimate of the cost of control per ton of pollutant reduced.
The attached spreadsheet provides the estimates for 2SLB, 4SLB, and 4SRB non-
emergency engines at both major and area sources.  For 2SLB and 4SRB engines 
at major sources, we looked at the cost/ton of going from a floor that is 
based on no add-on emissions control to an above-the-floor level based on 
emission levels achieved using oxidation catalyst for 2SLB and NSCR for 4SRB.  
I didn't provide a cost/ton for 4SLB engines at major sources because the 
floor is already based on levels achieved using oxidation catalyst control.  
For 2SLB, 4SLB, and 4SRB engines at area sources, we looked at the annual cost 
for going beyond GACT (management practices) and establishing emission limits 
based on the use of oxidation catalyst or NSCR for those engines.
