Subject: comments on ARB scoping draft
Comment:

   Over all the plan is moving in the right direction.  I support
the Sierra Club California comments of which I have followed and
commented on thier development. The comemnts would strenghen the 
final plan.

    As International Vice Presidnet of the Club  I would
particularly point out the Club's concerns  in the sections
dealing with cap and trade and concerns for equity interests as
well as hope California will not extend the offsets and trading 
internationally at this time. I join concenrs as to avoiding 
tagreements for any  WCI activities that  allow looser
requirements for offsets.

    As a citizen involved in my local town efforts to reduce
emmissions as well as watching the very large  proposed
development for the Concord Weapons station  I  feel that more can
be done ot foce local government and builders to develop in a more
friendly fashion. 

    The draft plan needs more specifics on how industries will be
required to look at alternatives to present high emmissions. Where
feasable there should be consideration of  changes needed to
address the  carbon emmssions released by products imported into
the state for  use by the Califronia consumers especially as they
related to products made overseas by Califronia based companies.

     I would like to see more assessment of the opportunities
provided by Community Choice Aggregation and an increase  on
opportunities gained from  placing greater priority  on zero waste
includding  requiring producers to take responsibility for end of
life dispositioin of thier products.
