A fresh look at the benefits and costs of the US acid rain program

Article Abstract:

The US Acid Rain Program, Title IV of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments, has achieved substantial reductions in emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides from power plants in the US. The benefits and costs of Title IV to those made in 1990 are compared concluding that further reductions in emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides from the electric power sector beyond those currently required by Title IV are warranted.
