THE American Trucking Associations (ATA) CEO Chris Spear declared the association and industry are going to review the Biden Administration's proposed emissions rules for heavy-duty trucks, reports the American Journal of Transportation.
'We share the Biden Administration's goals of reducing air pollution - as a longtime member of EPA SmartWay Transport Partnership - we have worked in harmony with environmental regulators to successfully reduce greenhouse gas and NOx emissions,' said Mr Spear.
'We will be looking very closely at the proposal put forth today by the administration, and working with them to shape an outcome that builds on those reductions, while not hurting the reliability of the trucks and trailers we purchase, nor imposing unreasonable or unworkable costs on our industry,' said Mr Spear.
'We want to ensure that the Biden Administration sets one, single national NOx emissions standard and that such standard can be achieved with workable, reliable technology - anything less than that will be extremely problematic for ata and our members.'
