I write in strong opposition to the modifications of the proposed
Advanced Clean Fleets rule.

My grandfather was a trucker and I understand how important
truckers are to making sure our goods get to where we need them.
Mandating the transition to zero emissions fleets -- before there
are enough trucks available and the costs are sky-high -- will
increase the cost of living in California to an even higher level.
In these already inflationary times, we're already working longer
hours to bring home less.

With electricity demand higher than ever, a crumbling
infrastructure in the state, and an unreliable grid, it is not good
policy. Let's figure out the technology needed to keep trucks
moving -- looking at all kinds of lower emissions options -- then
create regulations. This is too much, too soon.

I respectfully oppose the adoption of the Advanced Clean Fleets
rule as modified.

Sincerely, 

Kathy Laderman
