Dear Chairman Nichols, 

 I am writing today to ask you, and the esteemed members of the
Board, to please consider an exemption to the proposed on-road
diesel Truck and Bus regulation. I would like to ask you to please
consider the modifications outlined in the letter I've attached to
you from Mr. J Micheal Mortensson, Executive Director of the CGA. 
 
I would like to bring your attention to the fact that the State of
California cannot possibly provide clean drinking water for all of
her citizens, and therefore depends greatly upon the private Water
Well Contractor to do so. The State's drought conditions and dire
forecasts from many experts regarding future water supply issues,
combine to provide the the very real potential of a water crisis
for our state in the near future. These regulations will add to the
water supply problems many more issues than they will solve. 

It is my professional opinion, after ten years of being involved
in the water well industry, that the cost of the new equipment as
currently proposed will be a onerous and extrodinarily burdensome
requirement on the water well contractor. It could very well have
immense ramifications upon the water well industry's capability of
providing clean drinking water.
 
Thank you very much for your time, please contact me if I can be
of any assistance whatsoever.
 
Respectfully, 

Matthew James Maxcy
