Proposed Regulations and Amendments to Reduce GHG and Oxides of Nitrogren from HD Engines & Vehicles

Proposed Regulations and Amendments to Reduce GHG and Oxides of Nitrogren from HD Engines & Vehicles

Note: FED The ARB proposes five separate but related regulatory actions to on-road medium- and heavy-duty vehicles. An environmental analysis was prepared for each proposal and included into one staff report, in accordance with ARB's certified regulatory program and CEQA. The proposed regulatory actions include: 1) Phase 1 GHGE Standards; 2) GHG Tractor-Trailer Regulation Amendments; 3) Optional Low Oxides of Nitrogen Emission Standards for Heavy-Duty Engines; 4) Diesel Idling Regulation Amendments; 5) Amendments to Heavy-Duty Hybrid-Electric Vehicles Certification Procedures. The proposed regulatory actions will reduce GHG & NOx emissions from medium- and heavy-duty trucks, harmonize CA requirements with USEPA requirements, and ease enforcement & implementation of existing regulations.
