RNG Transportation Industry Statement on End of California Waivers

Washington, DC – The Transport Project (TTP) released the following statement by President Dan Gage in response to President Trump’s signing of Congressional Review Act resolutions nullifying three California Clean Air Act waivers:

The Transport Project supports efforts to advance the implementation of clean commercial trucks and buses. The best way to do so is through one national standard that equitably treats all clean technologies and allows fleets the flexibility needed to meet differing applications and duty cycles. Further, that standard must reflect technological and operational realities with an achievable timetable.

We support the actions of the U.S. House of Representatives, U.S. Senate, and President Trump to restore balance, fairness, and uniformity in fleet emission standards and reaffirm a national all-of-the-above clean vehicle deployment approach.
