Subject: cap and trade revenues
Comment:
    Cap and trade revenues should not be used for projects, such as
California High Speed Rail, that will blight and/or negatively
impact air quality in those areas where it will be developed or
used.  High Speed Rail will produce extremely high Green House Gas
(GHG) emissions during its long construction period, most likely
about four years.  
     Allowing cap and trade revenues to be alloted to such projects
is diametrically opposed to the very purpose of these revenues. Cap
and trade revenues must be used only for mitigation of emissions,
not to fund projects. This was never the intent of cap and trade,
and use of revenues by such projects is a thoroughly improper.
