Re: SB 233 (Hertzberg): Kuyimitsa Platform ya Mafuta ndi Gasi- OPANIZA

Wokondedwa Senator Hertzberg:

Mabungwe omwe asainidwa ayenera kutsutsa mwaulemu SB 233. Mabungwe athu ali ndi nkhawa zazikulu za zosintha zowononga zomwe zili muzolemba zaposachedwa za SB 233 zomwe zingamveke bwino kufooketsa malamulo omwe alipo (AB 2503 - 2010) powonjezera kukondera pakuchotsa pang'ono kwa zomwe zidagwiritsidwa ntchito. zopangira mafuta ndi gasi poyang'ana zotsatira zanthawi yochepa zochotsa kwathunthu ndikunyalanyaza zabwino zochotsa malo opangira mafuta ndi kubwezeretsa chilengedwe cha m'nyanja monga momwe amavomerezera poyamba ndi ogulitsa.

Ngakhale timathandizira malingaliro osintha Mtengo wa CEQA bungwe lotsogolera kuchokera ku Ocean Protection Council kupita California State Lands Commission, tili ndi nkhawa kuti zosintha zina zomwe sizinalangizidwe bwino ndi zomwe zaperekedwa mu SB 233 zitha kukondera pasadakhale chigamulo cha Boma mokomera tsankho. kuchotsa ndi kutsutsana ndi kuchotsa kwathunthu m'njira zingapo.

Mwina chofunikira kwambiri, zina mwazinthu zomwe zilipo 6613 (c) zimachotsedwa, kuphatikiza ndi kufunikira koganizira zovuta zakuchotsa pang'ono pamtundu wamadzi, chilengedwe chanyanja, ndi zinthu zachilengedwe (onani 6613(c)(3)), ndi kuganizira ubwino wa chilengedwe cha m’nyanja kuchotsa kwathunthu (6613 (c) (4)). Kuchotsa zofunika izi kumapereka cholinga chalamulo kuti zisakhalenso chofunika.

Kuphatikiza apo, SB 233, monga momwe idalembedwera pano, imayesa kulumikiza matope amatope ndi zipolopolo za zipolopolo. zopezeka pansi pa zida zam'mphepete mwa nyanja kuchokera kuzinthu zambiri zogwera ku Boma, koma potero, chinenero akufuna kukhala sachedwa kuti misconstrued kuchotsa matope ndi zipolopolo mounds kuchokera chifukwa kuganizira mu Environmental balancing equation. SB 233 imasokonezanso molakwika mpweya wanthawi yayitali zotsatira zabwino ndi kutulutsa mpweya wowonjezera kutentha (zomwe zidzayankhidwe ngati gawo la Mtengo wa CEQA review) mu kuunika kofunikira kwa zotsatira za nthawi yayitali ku chilengedwe cha m'nyanja.

Tidzanenanso kuti, malinga ndi zosintha zomwe zikukonzedwa mu SB 233, Boma. waku California atha kukhalabe mumndandanda wazovuta, monga zakhazikitsidwa momveka bwino ndi Malamulo a 2001 oyenera. Lingaliro la Uphungu wonena za malire pazofunikira za chiwombolo. Boma laphunzira kale kudzera muzochitika zomwe zilipo kale zokhudzana ndi zipolopolo za Chevron zomwe sizingatheke kuti zitheke sungani dongosolo lochenjeza za ngozi zapanyanja munkhaniyi.

Ndi mfundo zathu zonse kutsutsa mwamphamvu SB 233 m'njira yomwe akufuna.

Zikomo chifukwa cha chidwi chanu.
