This resolution cancels the EPA's 2023 waiver that allowed California to enforce its "Advanced Clean Trucks" program, which included zero-emission truck phase-in requirements, airport shuttle rules, and engine warranty standards. It uses the Congressional Review Act to make the waiver legally void.
It affects truck and engine manufacturers, trucking companies, airport shuttle operators, and states that had adopted California's stricter vehicle emissions rules instead of federal standards.
Without the waiver, California and states following its rules can no longer require truck makers and fleet operators to meet these specific zero-emission and clean-truck standards.
