I support your agency's proposal to require all ocean-going-vessels
to plug into shore-based sources of electricity, while those ships
are docked at port.  This item is Item # 20-8-1 on today's board
meeting, Thursday, August 27, 2020.

Our planet is at risk of becoming unlivable, if greenhouse gases
destroy our atmosphere.  Requiring ships to turn off their engines
while they are docked in port will reduce greenhouse gases.

Persons who live near seaports suffer physical harm, such as asthma
from pollution.  This proposed measure will reduce pollution at our
seaports.

I live in the city of Los Angeles.  My city government operates one
of the largest seaports in the world, on land which belongs to the
state government.  As a resident of Los Angeles, and a resident of
California, I want the California Air Resources Board to make the
air at the Port of Los Angeles as clean as possible.

Thank you for your help.
