Subject | Proposed Regulation |
Comment | Ladies and Gentlemen: We believe the currently proposed CARB regulations are unfair/unrealistic to require older machines that were Tier 0 - Tier 2 to comply with the new regulations When we purchased our equipment, we were not told that its useful life had an end date. If this regulation is passed, it will devalue all non-conforming equipment in California. Many companies will be forced to close due to these unfair regulations. We are in favor of clean air, and we believe that new machines that are sold should meet certain requirements. Machines that were purchased prior to these regulations were legal at the time of purchase. To have them comply with the new regulations is not realistic. You have taken the opposite approach with automobiles and the smog tests that are required by moving the date for required smog from 1966 to 1976. We need to move forward rather than moving backwards. Thank you for your time and consideration. Respectfully, Tom Hauenstein, President Coastal Earthmovers, Inc. |
