Please keep or STRENGTHEN Zero Emmissions Regulations! Zeo emission
vehicles not only reduce air pollution, but help in the fight
against global warming. In fact, now is the time to strengthen,
not weaken, these requirements.

As a car owner, I am concerned about pollution as well as the high
price of gasoline. I would very much like to have the option of
purchasing a zero emission vehicle and reducing my own impact in
these areas. This is unlikely to come to pass, though, if
automakers are only required to make 150 ZEV vehicles per year.

Finally, I fully support the staff's proposal to significantly
increase the number of plug-in hybrids that must be produced and
appreciate staff's vision in including these cars in the ZEV
requirements. A plug-in hybrid that has an all-electric range, but
that also runs on gasoline when the battery is empty, is a great
option for consumers like me and is available NOW if only the car
companies would build them.

Sincerely,

Mary Beth Binder
