Please delay this action.
 Although we agree that we will benefit from reduced emissions
this measure goes too fast and at a bad time in the economy. With
fuel consumption at very low rates around the globe, our air will
benefit even without these new constraints. Adding these
restrictions at this time will cost contractors jobs and reduce the
value of their assets at exactly the worst time possible.
Additionally, it will cost the taxpayers even more as rates for
equipment go up even higher to compensate for new expenses, and 
when infrastructure improvements are needed to keep the state
economy from falling into an even deeper mess. 

Thank you,
Rob Burke
