  I OWN AND OPERATE A 1999 INTERNATIONAL DIESEL TEN WHEEL DUMP
TRUCK. I AM  VERY CONCERNED ABOUT POLUTION. GLOBAL WARMING AND
HEALTH. MY WIFE HAS LUNG CANCER. I DON'T BELEIVE IN THE WAY THE
SCIENCE OF THE RESEARCH IS PRESENTED AGAINST THE TRUCKING AND
CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY. I BELEIVE THE REGULATIONS ARE BEING
IMPLEMENTED TOO FAST FOR THE IDUSTRIES INVOLVED.DO TO THE RECENT
HIGH FUEL PRICES. WHICH WILL RISE AGAIN. THE VERY POOR ECONOMY. MY
BUSINESS MAY HAVE TO CLOSE. THE RETROFIT IS VERY COSTLY AND IS ONLY
A SHORT TERM FIX. A NEW VEHICLE OR EVEN A NEWER USED VEHICLE IS OUT
OF MY FINANCIAL REACH. I'M IN BUSINESS LESS THAN THREE YEARS. THE
PROGRAMS AT THIS TIME FOR AID. I DO NOT QUALIFY FOR THEM. I WOULD
LIKE TO SEE A SLOWER IMPLEMENTATION OF RETROFIT AND VEHICLE
REPLACEMENT.THE ECONOMY MUST BE IN A LOT BETTER SHAPE FOR FOR
BUSINESS TO SERVIVE AND UPGRADE! A CHANGE IN QULIFICATION FOR AID
IS ALSO NEEDED. IT IS NOT STUCTURED FOR VEHICLES THAT PUT ON MORE
HOURS THAN MILES. THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME MAKE COMMENTS  ABOUT THE
PROPOSED RGULATIONS.
