Comment:
We are pleased ARB is employing a cap-and-trade system under AB 32. However, the program is proposed to be limited to the transportation, electricity, industry, and commercial/residential sectors. The Cap-and-trade program is meant to encourage reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and provide a mechanism to identify the most inexpensive means of accomplishing these reductions. What difference does it make if the project to reduce greenhouse gases is a Park Service facility? Toward this end, there should be no limits on the types of facilities that cap-and-trade reduction projections can apply. All facilities should be eligible as reduction projects at the start of the program. This will ensure that the maximum number of projects are encouraged for the most inexpensive cost, a goal that is good for all Californians.
