I find it absolutely unbelievable and a slap in the face that CARB
at this time is reconsidering their policies. 

As one of many that have played by the rules and to the tune of
$17500 I have complied with CARB requirements. 

How can you people legally and ethically changed the rules after
having already set a deadline? 
You are potentially creating a situation in which those of us that
have incurred the cost of updating or retrofitting our equipment
cannot compete financially and our cost of operating is much higher
than the non compliers which could benfit from your action. I would
in fact call it discriminatory. 


With regard to the proposed amendment extending into 2016 or 2018
and replacing current engines to 2010 engine or newer as a way to
circumvent cost is terribly unfair.  If I had this option available
to me a few months would have waited it out, took advantage of the
proposal and sold the truck out of state in 2016. This is what I
suspect most people will do if passed anyways. 

For a state which prides itself on fairness and equality I find the
proposed amendments anything but fair.

You can rest assured that if this proposal passes that I will take
part in any class action law suit or otherwise which might arise
out of this irresponsible action.
