and recommend mitigation options here in the metropolitan <st1:State
w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Washington</st1:place></st1:State> region,
stakeholders have raised the issue of the need to examine measures in terms of
their impact on cumulative emissions rather than just annual emissions.
If possible, can you refer me to definitive studies and policies that address
this issue? Also, whether folks are aware of cost/benefit spreadsheet
tools that may provide useful framework to undertake such an analysis of
measures. Thanks. Jeff <o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
