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. |
