National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and EPA seek comments on CAFE and GHG standards

In Washington, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) propose to amend certain existing Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) and greenhouse gas emissions standards for passenger cars and light trucks and establish new standards, covering model years 2021 through 2026.

The agencies are calling for stakeholders to submit comments at w ww.regulations.gov to Docket EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0283. Information on additional methods for submitting formal comments is available at https://www.epa.gov/dockets/where-send-comments-epa-dockets.

NHTSA and EPA will jointly hold three public hearings on this proposal in Washington, D.C.; in the Detroit, MI area; and in the Los Angeles, CA area. The agencies will announce the dates and locations of the hearings in a supplemental Federal Register notice.
