Comment
On behalf of GREENGUARD Environmental Institute (GEI), I would like
to applaud and support the California Air Resources Board's (CARB)
proposed regulation for ozone emissions from air cleaners.  

As part of our efforts to improve indoor air, GEI certifies over
150,000 products for chemical emissions.  We strongly believe that
testing for emissions from products is essential to limiting
unnecessary exposures to dangerous chemicals that may affect human
health.  CARB's efforts serve in the important vanguard of this
belief by promulgating objective, scientifically-based criteria. 


Our experiences confirm that air cleaners can emit significant
levels of ozone, which unequivocally impair respiratory systems,
particularly of the young and elderly.  

We encourage CARB to continue its efforts, extending its work to
other products and chemicals.

Sincerely,

Carl E. Smith, CEO
