Background: ARB staff is working jointly with the staff of the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) and the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on the next phase
of greenhouse gas emission standards for medium- and heavy-duty
vehicles, referred to as Phase 2. These standards are expected
to build on the improvements in engine and vehicle efficiency
required by the Phase 1 greenhouse gas emission standards, and
provide a significant opportunity to achieve further greenhouse
gas reductions for 2018 and later model-year heavy-duty vehicles,
including trailers.
U.S. EPA and NHTSA are planning to issue a Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking for the Phase 2 standards in the spring of 2015 and a
final rule in the spring of 2016. Upon federal adoption of the
Phase 2 standards, ARB staff plans to present a proposed
California Phase 2 program to the Board, most likely in late 2016
or 2017.
California is in a drought emergency.
