| Subject | New air quality regulations for existing fishing and whale watching boats |
| Comment | Please don't approve this new mandate.It will severely restrict access for lower income clients.My grandparents had a fishing barge about a mile offshore from Huntington Beach pier when I was a child (1958-1965) and I spent a lot of time there.It fostered a love for the ocean,boats and fishing in particular. It already costs $200 per person to go fishing in the bay area near me.The way I understand it, new boats will be necessary to accommodate the larger,heavier engines that comply with the proposed regulations.New boats are very expensive and of course the costs will have to be passed on to the customers.I can still afford to go fishing 8-10 times a year but a lot of my friends can't.If this law passes,most of Californians will be priced out.Please don't let this happen. Thank you for your consideration,Scott Burkett |
