Dear Air Resources Board Members,

We in the San Joaquin Valley have waited long enough for
effective, progressive action to clean our air. Now the Valley Air
Board is proposing an unconscionably long delay in cleaning ozone.
They and you have been presented with credible scientific research
and legal arguments as well that fully support a plan that will
clean ozone in the Valley years sooner, and without the "black
box" escape clause. This is well documented in the "Clearing the
Air " report by the the ISSRC and by other sources including the
air pollution specialist who resigned from the Valley Air District
after it ignored his and others' findings that ozone attainment
could be reached before 2023 and without the "black box". All that
is needed to implement such a plan is the political will to respond
to those to whom you are responsible: the breathers of this valley.
Please place the highest priority on achieving clean air in the San
Joaquin Valley as soon as possible, not as soon as comfortable for
the polluting parties. 

Lisa Kayser-Grant
