| Comment |
March 8, 2013 Dear Ms. Livingston, Attached is a submission and request for an allocation from AB32 Cap-and-Trade Auction Proceeds to our Conservation Agriculture Systems Innovation (CASI) Center. Two of our members, Ron Harben of the California Association of Resource Conservation Districts, and John Diener, President of Red Rock Ranch in Five Points, CA, also presented verbal testimony on behalf of our request at the Fresno public workshop that was held on February 19, 2013. Another CASI member, Fritz Durst, of Woodland, CA, tried to present verbal testimony at the February 25, 2013 public meeting in Sacramento, however, due to the overflow crowd at that meeting, he was unable to do so. His written testimony is included here with our submission. We believe that our proposal provides an important program and rationale for reducing agriculturally-generated greenhouse gasses through the increased adoption of conservation agriculture systems. We would be very happy to discuss our proposal with you further at any time. Sincerely, Jeff Mitchell |
