1/ Components are not additive since some generators are included in more than one category and not all units have environmental equipment.
2/ Nameplate capacity.
       Notes: · Data for 2000 are final pending final approval by the Environmental Protection Agency.  · Totals may not equal sum of components because of independent rounding.  · These data are only for plants with a fossil-fueled steam-electric capacity of 100 or more megawatts.
