Comment
Cascade Sierra Solutions (CSS)is one of the only non-profit
organizations in the US dedicated solely to reducing harmful
emissions and fuel consumption from diesel powered vehicles. CSS
has worked closely with the US EPA and the ARB to disseminate
information and educate truckers about air quality standards,
health issues, and the best available technologies for compliance
and improved operational efficiencies. We whole-heartedly support
your efforts for increased outreach to the trucking community.
Reaching this audience is difficult and requires accessing the
drivers where they live and work.

Both organizations have entrusted CSS to administer grant and
incentive programs to help truck owners. With our private and
public partners, we are able to help truck owners get the equipment
they need with very affordable terms.

CSS wishes to reconfirm our commitment to helping the ARB with
your outreach efforts in any way that we can. We have outreach
centers with permanent equipment and literature displays at popular
truck stops along the I-5 corridor to service truckers traveling
in, to, or from the California area. Current locations include
Sacramento, Coburg and Portland in Oregon, and we will be opening a
new facility in the Seattle area this summer. We expect to have
locations in Los Angeles, the Fresno area, and Medford, OR within
the next 1-2 years.

Any materials you wish to disseminate at our outreach centers can
be coordinated by contacting Dave Orton at 866-345-3390. In
addition, we can post notices for important items or events on our
website and cross-link to your very impressive website. We would
also entertain any other outreach proposals where you believe our
services can be helpful to your outreach mission.

Thank you for the trust you have placed in CSS in the past. We
hope to continue our relationship with your organization in the
future as we work to clear the air, improve health conditions for
our communities, and slow the effects of climate change due to
greenhouse gases.
