| Comment | As the proposed regulations now stand, our company is in serious
jepardy of not being financally able to comply with the
replacement of our 4 diesel trucks nor would we be able to sell
our trucks in California. Two of our trucks are small tankers for
the delivery of gasoline and diesel, one is a stake truck and the
3rd one is a class A tanker. These are special built
trucks and there is not a ready market out of state for them.
There is a strong possibility that we will have to shut down
our business, which is 3rd generation and has been in operation
since 1924. Not a pleasent thought.
The regulations do not make a great deal of sense as the cost to
business and government, State, local and Federal (all fire service
equip. will have to be replaced,what do you do with a fire engine
that cannot be used in the State) in this time of recession and
hard times on small business. The cost to all involved far outway
the benefits.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
