Dear Ms. Nichols and California Air Pollution Control District
Board Members:
Cargo ships traveling off in the Santa Barbara Channel pollute the
air and ship strikes pose a threat to the majestic and endangered
blue 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 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.
