Comment
The current proposal to ban the sale of gas powered chainsaws is
set to cause immeasurable safety issues for rural California. While
electric chainsaws may work for suburban homeowners and businesses,
they are patently unsafe for large jobs including falling trees for
firewood or as used by HotShot crews to remove hazard trees in fire
zones. 

It is unsafe to have a chainsaw run out of power out in the woods
mid-cut and is obviously not possible to simply plug it in. An
exception for rural CA should be made.
