Pennsylvaniadrops from 5 th in 2003 to 7 th in 2023. Among the states in the lower tiers, there are no significant changes, with thebottom ten matching for both 2003 and 2023, albeit in a slightly changed order.In the baseline projections, all states show increased PRC share, with the most dramatic increases belonging to NorthDakota (from 1.23 percent to 1.49 percent), Maine (0.99 percent to 1.24 percent), and Montana (0.86 percent to 1.11percent).
