Excess Emission Reduction Targets — Most of the serious proposals for acid rain control (in fact, both the House and Senate bills of 1984) involve some formula for allocating reductions excess emissions of SO2 over a defined population of emitters (in almost all cases, electric utilities). The principal focus of these efforts is to reduce total regional emissions, thus avoiding the nationally uniform, ambient requirements of the NAAQS. While the proposals differ as to who must come into compliance with what, when, and how, they share the common feature of requiring proportional reductions, in emissions above some threshold level (7). The political and economic implications of this approach have been discussed extensively elsewhere (8).

Concerns about the effects of cadmium and lead heat stabilizers on human health and the environment, and the probabilities of replacement, date back at least three decades. Pressures to eliminate the environmental hazards ostensibly caused by lead exposure have led to the introduction of a Senate bill calling for reductions in commercial and personal consumption of lead and its compounds. The measures would ban lead in food processing and cans, phase-out lead in cosmetics and product packaging, and require 100 percent recycling of lead-acid storage batteries.
