MRY 1 and 2 are well-controlled electric generating units (ECUs), which provide energy to the MISO system. MRY Units 1 and 2 have substantially reduced NOx and SO2 emissions, which have been documented in the context of the Regional Haze program. MRY 1 has reduced SO2 emissions by 96% since 2[}02, and MRY 2 has reduced SO2 by -5- Sierra Club FOIA 2025-EPA-04883 ED_018388_00000327-00057 SC_EVERSPLIT0006366
