EPA, Highway Agency Seen as Likely to Miss OMB Deadline for Heavy-Duty Truck Proposal

摘要

The Environmental Protection Agency and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration are likely to miss a White House deadline to propose new greenhouse gas and fuel economy standards for medium- and heavy-duty trucks this month. The agencies have not yet sent the proposal to the White House Office of Management and Budget for review, typically the final step before a proposed rule is published in the Federal Register. The review process can take up to 90 days.
