Dear Chair Nichols,
I am in favor of the governor's agenda to reduce greenhouse gas
emissions 25% by 2020.

The most promising way to reach this goal is to give consumers the
choice to buy Zero-Emission Vehicles (ZEVs)

It is my understanding that the California Air Resources Board
(CARB) may reduce the number of ZEVs required of automakers by
90%, settling for only 2,500 from 2012-2014. This is very
disappointing.

I am respectfully requesting that the CARB take the following
steps:

1. Require the full 25,000 ZEVs that automakers had promised for
2012-2014, and
2. Create a separate requirement for plug-in hybrids that lets
them replace the dirtiest vehicles in CARB's regulations, rather
than the cleanest ZEVs.

I am planning to purchase a plug in hybrid as soon as they become
available.

Choice for consumers means cleaner air for everyone.

Thanks for your consideration,
Roy Kniveton
