I mostly support the proposed amendments but would like to see the
offset amounts be increased from "4 [sic] times" to "as much as
possible". This is because attaining the state and federal
air-quality standards is only half the battle (especially since
said standards aren't actually protective); the real importance of
the regulation is to minimize emissions since any amount of air
pollution is harmful and deadly. Requiring the greatest-achievable
offsets would save lives and money and encourage manufacturers and
dealers to innovate and lead in reducing emissions.
Thank you.
