Dear Ladies and gentlemen of the ARB,

My husband and I are owners of a small excavating business in a
small town in Northern California.  We have worked very hard over
the past 20 years to accumulate various pieces of equipment so
that we can make a living, pay taxes and  donate to our community.
 These pieces of equipment are older but very well maintained by my
husband and they are paid for.  The ARB proposed regulation will
impose an impossible burden on people like us that can't afford
this big of an expenditure (on technology that isn't even proven)
over such a short span of time. We want cleaner air and realize
that we must be good stewards of the environment however this
proposed regulation is too much, too soon.  It also sticks the
cost to a small group.
Please consider re working this ...thank you
