Dear EPA Administrator Regan, Please accept these public 24,038 comments from members and online activists of the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) asking you to finalize the strongest possible standards to reduce pollution and help ensure the transition toward zero-emission vehicles. Transportation accounts for the largest share of climate pollution in the U.S. and is also a major source of other harmful pollutants that significantly impact public health, causing deadly diseases such as asthma, heart problems, and cancer. Cleaner vehicles are a winner all around. They help clean up the air, deliver savings on fuel, support domestic job creation, and protect the climate. Please finalize a strong vehicle standard that would do the following: •A strong EPA standard for cars, SUVs, pickup trucks, and cargo vans should be finalized by the end of the year and must lead to significant reductions in carbon emissions by being at least as strong as the most stringent alternative in the agency's proposal. Thank you

Abstract

Per EPA's authority under the Clean Air Act section 202(a), EPA will propose a comprehensive set of emissions standards for greenhouse gases and criteria pollutants for the light-duty vehicle sector as well as medium-duty vehicles (i.e., Class 2B and 3 vehicles). The standards will begin with model year 2027 light-duty vehicles, with stringency levels set at least through model year 2030. This action is also supported by the President's Executive Order 14037, titled Strengthening American Leadership in Clean Cars and Trucks.”
