On March 29, 2024, EPA announced new emission standards for heavy-duty vehicles for model years 2027 through 2032. The rule,Greenhouse Gas Emissions Standards for Heavy-Duty Vehicles – Phase 3, regulates heavy-duty vocational vehicles such as delivery trucks, refuse haulers, and public uti...
depending on the type of vehicle and use, the agency said. For instance, 30% of "heavy-heavy-duty vocational" trucks would need to be zero-emission by 2032, the EPA said, while 40% of short-haul "day cabs" would need be zero emission vehicles. ...
The Biden administration announced new tailpipe emission standards for new passenger cars that aim to cut over 7 billion tons of carbon emissions, as well as other harmful air pollutants. The standards will apply to new passenger cars and light-duty trucks, beginning with model year 2027 through...
The proposed rules would amend the existing National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants Emissions for hard and decorative chromium electroplating and chromium anodizing tanks by lowering the existing NESHAP limits for both existing and new sources.The EPA accepted public comments on the ...
