Interactive Plot
(Note 1: Negative values indicate load reductions; positive values indicate load increases.)
(Note 2: To obtain values in million pounds (Mlbs), multiply the percent change shown in this plot by the CAST load in the first year of the assessment period, which is available in the Data Table under the About tab.)
