Comment | Dear CARB Members, I am contacting you to express my concerns about the proposed regulations regarding GHG emmissions reduction recommendations that your Board is set to consider this Thursday. From my review of the recommendations, they do not seem to based on any real science or demonstrable evidence that the proposed standards are economically sound or that the cost/benefit has been established. We all want to be prudent when it comes to implementing standards to improve the performance of new buildings, however, we all must be looking at the economic burden we accept in conjunction with benefit we all will derive. In other words, the cost to achieve the benefit needs to be reasonable and balanced with the resulting reduction. The question we must ask ourselves is whether the economic burden placed on new construction is the best use of dollars for the reduction in GHG that we may realize. I strongly suggest that you ask for a complete economic analysis of the costs to implement these regulations with respect to the anticipated reduction in GHG emmissions for new construction. Sincerely, Dan Lloyd |
