That is, from the Comparative Assessment point of view, are there any insurmountable problems for SPS? The reports presented and the questions and comments received support our assertion that we have achieved our objectives, to provide a traceable and objective data set. It remains to communicate the results in the final report, noting the benefits and concerns surrounding the issues of the SPS reference system and concept as compared to the selected alternatives. The overall finding is that within the assumptions, uncertainties, and scope of the assessment, no comparative issues appear as insurmountable barriers to the SPS concept.
