ear Chairman Nichols,

I am writing to support the Administrative Fee regulation coming
up for a vote on June 25, 2009. Thank you for your leadership in
the fight against global warming.

A stable funding source is needed in order to continue the
important work of CARB and other state agencies to implement
California's global warming strategies. The proposed AB 32
administrative fee provides that funding in an equitable manner by
imposing a fee on major sources of greenhouse gases in California,
rather than continuing to rely on state funds.

In light of the state's already dire budget situation, adopting
the fee regulation is a responsible action to provide the resources
necessary to administer key strategies and regulations to curb
greenhouse gas emissions from all sectors of the economy.

I strongly support adoption of the fee to ensure that CARB
maintains momentum toward meeting the state’s greenhouse gas
reduction goals. Thank you again for your leadership and I again
urge you to adopt the AB 32 administrative fee.
