The document details the methodology for calculating SO2 control costs, estimates the health and monetary benefits of a tighter emission cap alternative (CATF 16) compared to the EPA's IAQR, and argues that sufficient boilermaker labor exists to implement these controls by 2010.

  • The Clean Air Task Force's (CATF) alternative control scenario (CATF 16) is projected to yield significantly higher health and monetary benefits than the EPA's IAQR proposal. For 2010, the CATF scenario estimates 18,000 avoided deaths and $99 billion in benefits, compared to the EPA's 9,600 avoided deaths and $53 billion. For 2015, the CATF scenario estimates 22,000 avoided deaths and $129 billion in benefits, versus the EPA's 13,000 avoided deaths and $77 billion.
  • The benefit-cost ratios for the CATF alternative control scenario are estimated at 12 in 2010 and over 14 in 2015, with incremental costs of $8.16 billion in 2010 and $8.97 billion in 2015 relative to the base case.
  • The average cost of removing SO2 and NOx under the CATF alternative scenario is estimated to be between $1,000 and $1,100 per ton for SO2 and $800 to $1,000 per ton for NOx in both 2010 and 2015.
