This Joint Resolution formally disapproves a rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) concerning various aspects of California's motor vehicle and engine pollution control standards. The rule, published in the Federal Register on April 6, 2023, addressed heavy-duty vehicle and engine emission warranty and maintenance provisions. Specifically, the EPA rule included measures related to Advanced Clean Trucks , zero-emission airport shuttles, and zero-emission powertrain certification. It also involved a waiver of preemption , allowing California to implement its stricter emission standards. By passing this resolution, Congress ensures that the EPA's rule is nullified and will not be implemented, thereby preventing its provisions from taking effect.
