3. Tentative timetable for work on PM, adopted by EMEP: The basis z Broad timing: y Aimed at supporting the review of the Gothenburg Protocol in 2004. y 2003 reserved for testing and sensitivity analysis y Results of specialized studies and new data should be available by 2002 y 2001 for preparatory work z Coverage: acidification, eutrophication, ozone and exposure to fine particles involving SO 2, NO x, VOCs, NH 3 and the various species of particulate matter. Linkages to climate change policies. Here: only PM-relevant parts

4. Tentative PM timetable: contributors z EMEP (CCC, MSC-W, CIAM, TFIAM, TFMM, TFEIP) covers: y atmospheric modelling, y monitoring, y emissions & projections, y abatement costs, y integrated assessment modelling z Input from: y other bodies under the Convention (effects) and y work done by EEA and the EC y national contributions by Parties
