This will have a major impact to our small minority business. We
all want clean air but at what cost? This will require our business
to replace / retrofit trucks that are not worth the retrofit due to
age / condition. We replace 2 trucks annually. This will require us
to replace 5 trucks for the next 3 years and retrofit 22 by 2014.
This will be ongoing retrofits until 2023 until all of our vehicles
meet the 2010 standards. We need more time and finincal assistance
to meet these time standards proposed. In these tight finincal
times we are struggling just to keep our doors open. This may send
us over and may not be able to meet the proposed regulation. We
tried to get B1 funding, however our trucks do not meeet the
funding requiremens.We urge a postponement of the rule and allow
more time to get into compliance. Thanks for our chance to make our
point to the board.
