Thank you for the opportunity to provide comments on the proposed
expanded list of early action items to reduce greenhouse gases. 
The California Refuse Removal Council (CRRC) member companies
provide comprehensive solid waste collection, transportation,
processing, recycling, and disposal services. CRRC represents over
100 hauling companies and 50 recycling facilities statewide. 

On behalf of the CRRC, I would like to express support for the
proposed early action “Guidance and Protocols for Local
Governments to Facilitate GHG Emission Reductions”.  Local
governments are becoming increasingly interested in measuring and
understanding their greenhouse gas impact and what measures can
effectively reduce it.  The development of protocols would greatly
assist local governments who are already poised to take actions to
reduce their greenhouse gas footprint and seek guidance as to how
to best accomplish that goal.

Additionally, the CRRC supports the proposal by CARB staff to
place a focused effort on voluntary actions, as described on Page
6 of the Notice of Public Meeting.  Staff’s suggestion to develop
methodologies for the quantification of voluntary greenhouse gas
emission reductions is very helpful.


Sincerely:


Rick Moore
