Dear Ms. Nichols and California Air Pollution Control District
Board Members:

Large cargo ships traveling off our coast produce significant
greenhouse gas and toxic air emissions that impact my coastal
community.

More--ship strikes are an unacceptable threat to whales!

Slowing down cargo ships meets multiple objectives in your Draft
Cap-and-Trade Investment Plan including:

--Reducing GHG emissions and other air pollutants;

--Improving public health; and

--better protecting whales.

I strongly support including vessel speed reduction in your Final
Plan as a priority for funding and request Cap-and-Trade money be
directed to the Vessel Speed Reduction Initiative.
