28- to 31-percent reduction) to achieve a less-than-significant environmental effect, as indicated by Table 4.F-3. Implementation of additional emissions reduction strategies such as those identified in Table 4.F-4 above could further reduce the impact of GHG emissions. However, because it is unclear to what extent such measures could feasibly be implemented and would reduce GHG emissions to levels below the threshold of significance, the impact of GHG emissions from the CPP and CPP-V scenarios would remain significant unavoidable.
