Comment
I support your advanced truck regulation. Cutting down the
pollution for heavy truck and bus vehicles makes sense.  Here are
some reasons I believe this is necessary.

o	It is easier to convert fleets of vehicles than it is one at
	a time.(light duty cars and trucks. 
o	Trucks and buses can have engines replaced economically
	during the usage cycle. Autos are generally scrapped at
	end of life. 
o	Trucks and buses represent a significant amount of 
	GHG reduction. 
o	We will not get to the CA goal of Carbon Neutral by 2045
			without converting this segment to zero carbon fuel.
o	Truck traffic tends to travel through disadvantaged areas.
	Moving trucks and buses to electric means healthier air
	for this segment of the population.
o	Truck and bus refueling stations can be placed at
	optimum locations. This makes large chagrins /fueling
	stations more economically feasible. 
o	Diesel trucks and buses have Nitrogen dioxide in their
	exhaust. Asthma  comes in part from Nitrogen Dioxide.
o	We are in the middle of the COVID crises. We see that
	COVID aggressively attacks people with respiratory 
	diseases.
