If the region misses a milestone and reverts to standard nonattainment, hasn the EAC delayed the process?
No. In fact, if we start the EAC process but end up in standard nonattainment, we’ll still be ahead of the game. Technical and modeling work performed for the EAC would obviate the need for those analyses during SIP development under standard nonattainment. Even if we default in the EAC, we will get credit for strategies put in place under that agreement — no work is lost. If we shift to standard nonattainment, we don’t go back to “square one.” The region would assume the place in the nonattainment timeline where we would have been without EAC participation.
