Comment
Members of the California Air Resources Board,
Ever since 1998, I have been advocating at the local level for a
ban on gas-powered garden equipment. Initially the ideas fell on
deaf ears. Over the years our community elected one city council
member after another who held more sympathetic views. When they
became the majority, gas-powered garden maintenance equipment was
finally banned in the City of Ojai. It took just a short time for
the professional landscape maintenance businesses to comply. 
The January 1,2024 deadline stated in AB 1346 is a reasonable
advance notification that would allow businesses and homeowners to
comply. There are many reasons to stick to this schedule rather
than extending the deadline, not least of which is the continuing
damage to our air quality perpetrated by these carbon spewing
machines. 
Please do not delay the implementation schedule of AB 1346.
Thank you,
Sharon Cate
Ojai, CA.
