The cost criteria are based on those adopted by the AQMD Governing Board in the 1995 BACT Guidelines, adjusted to fourth second quarter 20031999 dollars using the Marshall and Swift Equipment Cost Index.  Cost effectiveness analyses should use these figures adjusted to the latest Mashall and Swift Equipment Cost Index, which is published monthly in Chemical Engineering.
