May 24, 2022· Mass Comment Campaign sponsored by Natural Resources Defense Council. (web)· EPA-HQ-OAR-2019-0055-1614

Please accept these 28,240 public comments from members and online activists of the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) asking you to adopt the strongest possible standards to reduce pollution from diesel truck engines and establish a national zero-emissions truck sales requirement to help phase out fossil fuels and slash air pollution in the most-impacted communities more quickly. EPA has a responsibility to slash air pollution, protect public health, and address the climate crisis all at once by pursuing strong standards for heavy-duty vehicle emissions. While we commend your agency for undertaking this effort, we are concerned that your draft proposal doesn't go far enough and needs to be significantly strengthened. Even with strong emissions standards in place, it will take years for the benefits to reach the people who need them most. That's why we also need a zero-emissions truck mandate. By adopting the two abovementioned policies, we can make progress towards our climate goals and protect the communities most at-risk. Thank you!
