Dear members of the California Air Resources Board:
  We here in Middletown, CA 95461 experience, on a daily basis,
the odious toxic emissions from the many diesel trucks and buses
which come right through the middle of our town on Highway 29. Even
those of us with healthy lungs find it very difficult to breathe,
while for folks with cardiac, COPD, asthma, diabetes, and the
stroke-afected---the air pollution is overwhelming. I wake up many
morniongs with my pulse pounding, coughing, my breathing labored,
and the smell of petrochemicals in my nostrils.
  I am a retired educator and veteran, and I had hoped to retire
to a place with healthy, clean air. Regretfully, this is not the
case, and that is why I started our local organization, CLEAN AIR
PLEASE to clean up the persistent bad air in our valley. Your
regulation of diesel emissions will help us breathe better.
Sincerely,
Clare Brady
