Oct 12, 2017· Comment submitted by Thomas J. Gibson, President and CEO, American Iron and Steel Institute’s (AISI)· EPA-HQ-OAR-2015-0827-9005

Dear Sir/Madame: Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Reconsideration of the Mid-Term Evaluation of Greenhouse Gas Emissions Standards for MY 2022-25 Light-Duty Vehicles (82 Fed. Reg. 39551)("Reconsideration")(August 21, 2017). AISI serves as the voice of the North American steel industry in the public policy arena and leads collaborative projects in the development and implementation of steelmaking technology and new steel grades. AISI is comprised of 19 member companies, including integrated and electric furnace steelmakers, and approximately 120 associate members who are suppliers to, or customers of the steel industry. As detailed further in the attached comments, AISI is appreciative of the administration's actions thus far in putting the MTE back on a coordinated schedule with NHTSA. Our members believe a transparent process, founded in current data and market conditions will produce a more credible Final Determination and provide the much needed certainty in the standards all stakeholders desire. AISI and its members are committed to working with EPA and NHTSA, and most importantly our member companies' automotive customers, in implementing sound regulations and policy consistent with achieving the goals of the light-duty vehicle standards, namely achieving net decreases in fuel consumption and GHG emissions to the atmosphere. Respectfully submitted, Thomas J. Gibson President and CEO

Dec 30, 2016· Comment submitted by Thomas J. Gibson, President and CEO, American Iron and Steel Institute’s (AISI)· EPA-HQ-OAR-2015-0827-6102

Dear Mr. Lieske: Thank you for the opportunity to submit the attached comments on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Proposed Determination on the Appropriateness of the Model Year 2022-2025 Light Duty Vehicle GHG Standards ("Proposed Determination")(81 Fed. Reg. 87927)(December 6, 2016). AISI serves as the voice of the North American steel industry in the public policy arena and advances the case for steel in the marketplace as the preferred material of choice. AISI also plays a lead role in the development and application of new steels and steelmaking technology. AISI is comprised of 19 member companies, including integrated and electric furnace steelmakers, and approximately 125 associate members who are suppliers to or customers of the steel industry. AISI respectfully requests EPA withdraw the Proposed Determination and return to its long standing schedule for the Midterm Evaluation process. If EPA refuses to withdraw the Proposed Determination, AISI requests that EPA at least extend the comment period an additional 120 days to allow for adequate time to thoroughly review the proposal and supporting materials to provide a rigorous analysis and substantive comments. AISI and its members are committed to working with EPA and NHTSA in implementing sound regulations and policy that are consistent with the achieving the goals of the CAFE standards, namely achieving net decreases in GHG emissions to the atmosphere. Respectfully submitted, Thomas J. Gibson President and CEO

Abstract

The model year 2017-2025 rule establishing standards for light-duty vehicle greenhouse gases and corporate average fuel economy established a mid-term evaluation process for model year 2022-2025 greenhouse gas standards. The first step in the mid-term evaluation is a Draft Technical Assessment Report, issued jointly by EPA, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, and the California Air Resources Board, to inform EPA’s determination on the appropriateness of the GHG standards and to inform NHTSA’s rulemaking for the CAFE standards for model years 2022-2025.
