On behalf of more than 50 environmental justice, labor, health,
scientific, business and environmental groups and the communities
we represent, we urge the California Air Resources Board (CARB) to
direct Staff to strengthen the proposed Advanced Clean Fleets (ACF)
rule before final adoption. This can be accomplished by directing
Staff to propose for final adoption the recommendations below,
included in Alternative 2: Accelerated ZEV Transition, as presented
in the Initial Statement of Reasons (ISOR). This
includes:
- Moving the 100 percent MHD ZEV sales date from 2040 to 2036;
and
- Ensuring all Class 7 and 8 tractors are subject to the same
transition schedule beginning 2027 while lowering the High Priority
Fleet threshold for Class 7 and 8 tractors from 10 or more
trucks.
