| Subject | Emission Control for Docked Ships |
| Comment | I strongly approve of & support controlling the emissions from
docked ship for all of the reasons stated below:
Regulation reduces harmful pollutants such as diesel particles
in refinery and other vulnerable communities
Health benefits are 2x the costs to ship owners, Ports and
refineries
Emission Control costs add less than a penny to the cost of
fuel at the pump
Bay Area oil terminals should be required to comply by 2025, on
the same schedule as terminals located in Southern California
Money from penalties or alternative compliance actions should
be spent in consultation with local communities on local emission
reduction actions.
The people of Oakland, & west Oakland in particular, suffer from
various respiratory threats & this is one that can be eliminated.
Please do so. Thanks. |
