Comment EI-19906

Received or sent (printed as 1/11/2013)

Please ensure that the EIS fully addresses the adverse environmental impacts in the Spokane area. My daughter and her family live within ¼ mile of the rail system south of I-90 and I am especially concerned about the increase particulates in the air from diesel exhaust due to the dramatic proposed increase in the number of trains heading west through Spokane. As a minimum I urge only the newest diesel engines or only retrofit engines meeting the current diesel engine standards.
