Comment
Hello, 

My name is Juan Ochoa and am a resident of San Ysidro and have the
honor of being the Social Equity Coordinator at Casa Familiar Inc,
a nonprofit org serving South SD. I am writing in support of having
the International Border Community in the San Diego Air Pollution
Control District (San Diego APCD) selected as an AB617 community to
develop both a community air monitoring plan and a community
emissions reduction program.

The 905 highway works as a truck route from the Port of San Diego
to the US-Mexico truck border crossing in Otay Mesa
and has the highest volume of trucks of the US-Mex border in CA.
Being included as an AB 617 community will allow focused efforts,
additional funding opportunities for implementation and address the
need of reducing air pollution within our often-underserved
communities and together increase the quality of life and
wellbeing.  Thank you.
