1 MIDWEST OZONE GROUP Preliminary Comments on the CAIR Replacement Rule April 17, 2009 David M. Flannery Jackson Kelly PLLC Charleston, West Virginia

2 Scope Limit to regional transport Use state SIP process to resolve residual non-attainment Preserve as much of initial CAIR rule, as possible, consistent with Court decision

3 Relationship to Other Programs For covered sources, CAIR should be structured in a way that: -allows BART and RACT to be satisfied through CAIR compliance and - eliminates any possible basis for §126 petitions

4 Cost Effectiveness CAIR controls: -should be “highly cost effective” -account for adverse economic impact on sources -account for the lack of availability of capital

5 Trading Examination of various trading options -intrastate trading -ISO trading -CAIR region trading Comparison to no trading scenario Evaluate IPM and alternative approaches to assessing policy alternatives Select broadest possible trading program

6 Allowance Allocations Develop a new system of allocations (given rejection of Title IV) Seek public comment on alternative allocation methods Allocations should not be auctioned

7 Modeling Validate state emission inventories Establish the base year (assess both 2007 and 2008) A stakeholder group should agree on MET data Domain size should be consistent among modelers

8 Modeling (continued) Encourage use of best science in air quality and biogenics models Review boundary conditions and revise as appropriate Select representative future years most relevant to non-attainment deadlines (2012, 2015, other?) Select the year to be examined for maintenance (2025)
