Dear CARB,

I write to ask that the California Air Resources Board keep
California leading the nation (and following others in the world)
in doing things in a better way. The technology is here, let's
promote it. Please do not weaken the current Zero Emission Vehicle
regulations. In fact, now is the time to strengthen, not weaken,
these requirements.

I would very much like to have the option of purchasing a zero
emission vehicle and reducing my own impact in these areas. This
is unlikely to come to pass, though, if automakers are only
required to make 150 ZEV vehicles per year.

Finally, I fully support the staff's proposal to significantly
increase the number of plug-in hybrids that must be produced and
appreciate staff's vision in including these cars in the ZEV
requirements. A plug-in hybrid that has an all-electric range, but
that also runs on gasoline when the battery is empty, is a great
option for consumers like me.


Sincerely,
Mayumi Elegado
