Jan 10, 2018· Mass Comment Campaign sponsored by Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) (web)· EPA-HQ-OAR-2014-0827-4866

To Whom It May Concern: Attached are the signatures of 50,221 Environmental Defense Fund supporters from across the country who have submitted comments opposing EPA's proposal to repeal emission requirements for glider vehicles, glider engines, and glider kits. The comment they each submitted reads: "I'm writing today with great concern over EPA's proposal to reopen the 'glider truck' loophole. Doing so would give an unfair competitive advantage to these super-polluting trucks over trucks that achieve clean air standards. Freight truck leaders invested in and now sell cleaner freight trucks and engines. Reopening this loophole could put their prudent investments--and their employees' jobs--at risk, which is why numerous trucking industry leaders have publicly opposed the unfair competition and pollution that would be allowed by a glider kit loophole. But this policy wouldn't just unfairly pick winners and losers in the industry. It would put Americans' lives at risk. According to EPA estimates, if the glider truck loophole were left open until 2021, glider vehicles would result in as many as 6,400 premature deaths. These trucks emit as much as 40 times the pollution of modern engines, contributing to a host of respiratory problems that increase our national healthcare costs and put our lives at risk. Reopening this loophole takes America in the wrong direction. Please reconsider this dangerous decision." Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns about this submission.

Abstract

EPA and NHTSA, on behalf of the Department of Transportation, are each proposing rules to establish a comprehensive Heavy-Duty National Program (Phase II) that will reduce greenhouse gas emissions and fuel consumption for onroad heavy-duty vehicles, responding to the President’s directive on March 31, 2014, to take coordinated steps to produce a new generation of clean vehicles. NHTSA’s proposed fuel consumption standards and EPA’s proposed carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions standards are tailored to each of three regulatory categories of heavy-duty vehicles: Combination Tractors; Heavyduty Pickup Trucks and Vans; and Vocational Vehicles. The rules include separate standards for the engines that power combination tractors and vocational vehicles. Certain rules are exclusive to the EPA program. These include EPA’s proposed hydrofluorocarbon standards to control leakage from air conditioning systems in combination tractors, and pickup trucks and vans. These also include EPA’s proposed nitrousoxide (N2O) and methane (CH4) emissions standards that apply to all heavy-duty engines, pickup trucks and vans.
