| Comment | Environment California Research & Policy Center urges the board to
stay the course on ZEVs and not send a conflicting policy signal
regarding timing and stringency of the ZEV program. In recent
weeks, Governor Brown has touted the state’s many policies to
support market expansion of ZEVs, including SB 1275, which the
legislature passed and the governor signed last month. SB 1275 was
developed in part to help achieve the Governor’s goal of ensuring
1.5 million electric vehicles on California’s roads by 2025, as
noted in his executive order signed in March 2012. Though not
specific to the ZEV Regulation amendments proposed to the board for
consideration at this meeting, the attached statement regarding our
state’s 1.5 million EVs goal is a reflection of the strong local
government support for California’s leadership on zero emission
vehicles.
