Comment:
I am writing regarding the Cap-and-Trade Auction Proceeds,
Investments to Benefit Disadvantaged Communities: Interim Guidance
to Agencies Administering Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund Monies.  I
would like to register my organization’s concerns about the use of
the CalEnviroScreen 2.0 Tool in assessing Disadvantaged Communities
(DAC) for the purpose of the distributing these funds.  By using
this tool, seriously disadvantaged communities in our region and
the whole Sierra will not, and cannot, be considered as a DAC. This
puts our region at an unfair disadvantage when applying for
funding. We urge instead that you use the DAC status determined
based on the DAC definition provided in DWR's Proposition 84 and 1E
IRWM Guidelines, dated August, 2010.

Thank you,

Elena DeLacy
