Senate cancels California’s clean-truck waivers
The U.S. Senate voted to repeal a waiver granted to California that the trucking industry considered a costly mandate. The resolution nullifies the 'Omnibus' Low NOx rule, which tightened emission standards for heavy-duty trucks, a move cheered by the American Trucking Associations.
Advanced Clean Trucks is dead
Congress has terminated California’s electric vehicle and low-NOx truck mandates using the Congressional Review Act. Industry groups applauded the decision, while California officials vowed to challenge the 'unprecedented' use of the CRA to revoke adjudicatory waivers in court.
