Subject: Priorities for A.B. 32 Scoping Plan
Comment:
Dear Chairwoman Nicholas, I believe the A.B. 32 Scoping Plan should have three central priorities: 1. A well-designed cap-and-trade program. Cap-and-trade puts an absolute limit on pollution from some of California's largest sources and guarantees the environmental results we need. CARB should include as many sources as possible in a cap-and-trade system. I support CARB's preliminary thinking that 80% of California's global warming pollution would be under a cap-and-trade system by 2020. 2. An "Indirect Source Rule" (ISR) to control emissions from development projects. CARB should require California's local air districts to develop ISRs to control emissions from new developments. 3. A new Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) to increase clean energy in our state. I support CARB's preliminary recommendation that the state immediately adopt a 33% RPS by 2020. Thank you. Sincerely, Kathryn Markham Los Angeles
