| Comment | Blue Source strongly supports the proposed California Air Resources
Board (ARB) compliance offset protocol for mine methane capture
(MMC) projects, and commends ARB for its hard work in developing a
protocol that will economically enable the destruction of waste
mine methane previously vented to the atmosphere. ARB has
constructed a protocol that is scientifically sound, technically
robust and practical in its workability and application, which
should all result in measurable, real and permanent reductions in
greenhouse gas emissions. Furthermore, the offset credits to be
generated from the MMC protocol will represent a material
contribution to the California cap-and-trade program’s ability to
achieve GHG emission reductions in an economically efficient
manner. Blue Source encourages ARB to approve and make effective
the protocol as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
Eric Townsend
Chief Executive Officer
