Comment:
The Sector Overview and Emission Reduction Strategies for Transportation includes an evaluation of rail strategies. This evaluation is limited to High Speed Rail, which is contingent on voter approval of a state bond. The Scoping Plan should also evaluate the ability of the current state intercity rail program to provide a rail strategy. Implementation and expansion of intercity rail is not contingent on voter approval, but can be achieved through better coordination of existing state, regional and local transportation revenue available for this purpose. Such coordination is less likely to be achieved without some statewide evaluation of its potential effect on GHG emission reduction.
