Table 1.

Specified control scenarios for power plant simulation.

Scenario Definition
A 75% reductions in SO2, NOx, and primary PM2.5 from all plants
B Reductions in SO2, NOx, and primary PM2.5 from all plants to meet the average target emissions in pounds per million Btu, with plants currently below the target constrained to no emissions increases
C Elimination of plants until all caps are met, starting from the highest health benefit per unit emissions of SO2, going down
D Elimination of plants until all caps are met, starting from the highest health benefit per unit emissions of nitrogen dioxide (NO2), going down
E Elimination of plants until all caps are met, starting from the highest health benefit per unit emissions of PM2.5, going down
F Elimination of plants until all caps are met, starting from the lowest health benefit per unit emissions of SO2, going up
G Elimination of plants until all caps are met, starting from the lowest health benefit per unit emissions of NO2, going up
H Elimination of plants until all caps are met, starting from the lowest health benefit per unit emissions of PM2.5, going up
I Elimination of plants until all caps are met, starting from the highest background PM2.5 concentration, going down
J Elimination of plants until all caps are met, starting from the lowest background PM2.5 concentration, going up
K Elimination of plants until all caps are met, starting from the highest SO2 emitters, going down
L Elimination of plants until all caps are met, starting from the highest NO2 emitters, going down
M Elimination of plants until all caps are met, starting from the highest PM2.5 emitters, going down
N Elimination of plants until all caps are met, starting from the lowest SO2 emitters, going up
O Elimination of plants until all caps are met, starting from the lowest NO2 emitters, going up
P Elimination of plants until all caps are met, starting from the lowest PM2.5 emitters, going up
