EPA Makes Move To Reduce Truck Pollution

The EPA is drafting a proposal to tighten pollution standards for heavy-duty trucks, building on existing nitrogen dioxide standards linked to health issues. The last update was in 2001, and since then, emissions have dropped significantly. The new initiative aims to address emissions during low-load conditions, but faces opposition from groups concerned about its impact on state policies. The EPA plans to release an official proposal later this year.
