Comment | Dear Gov., MY wife and I haver been a Commercial Truck Dealer for over 21 years in California. This propasal as currently written will destroy not just the truckes but all the affilliated companies as well as drive the price of goods and services through the roof. California has benefited from lower costs for transportation for years. While y wife and I are also concerned about being green we also have to look at what cost. We have had the smoke law for 11 years and it was not enforced until the last 3 years. When it was enforced it was only on a selective basis. The State just allowed low sulfer Diesel this last year and this had made a substantila difference. I would propose that the allotted time for fleet improvement be increased to lessen the fiscal impact to the consumer. The rules are only going to speed the business flight from the State. The Kansas City Port of Entry openned 3 years ago and this alone will change the econmics of our State---they are in the process of by-passing us now and it will just accelerate. Please stretch the rules out. |
