Comment | Dear Sir, I have watched the ongoing thrash over your latest proposed changes with interest as it may well put us out of business.In looking at truck upgrades I have been told by engine manufacturers that they are simply pulling out of the California market and our current only engine choice is Cummins. We have experience with two trucks equipped to meet the new standards and they have been a nightmare to try and operate. Everyone is for clean air but the current changes are overwhelming no matter when they are phased in but are devastating at a time that couldn't be worse for anyone trying to stay alive in business. If you think this economy is going to be good for California, you think wrong. If you think your regulations are going to improve the air, they might, but at a cost beyond your wildest imagination. I can only speak for myself but we cannot afford these regulations at this critical time, we would have to downsize to afford them in a normal economy. Trading clean air goals for unemployment just doesn't seem like the right answer. |
