1 SO 2 Data Analysis The following 4 slides attempt to provide a context for a re-analysis of the model results using the milestone inventory. If model results show a reduction in sulfate on the Colorado Plateau on the 20% worst (modeled) days, those results could be added to the slide show to complete the picture. Slide 1: 1990 – 1999 Improve data, 20% worst days Pie chart: Average contribution to extinction of selected components over 10 years Bar chart: SO 4, variance from the mean at individual stations over the same time period Slide 2: A comparison of OC and SO 4 as a percentage of B ext, and their correlation to emissions from wildfire. Slide 3: A qualitative relationship between observed sulfate on the Colorado Plateau and the 1996 WRAP modeling inventory for the 9 transport states (without fugitive dust). Slide 4: Comparisons between the 1996, 2018 base, and 2018 milestone inventories for point source SO 2 in the 9-state region. A 32% reduction in electric utility SO 2 in the milestone inventory yields a 21% reduction in total point source SO 2 in the region.
