Overview of California’s Tractor-Trailer Greenhouse Gas Regulation

ATA Technology & Maintenance Council March 11, 2014

Stephan Lemieux

California’s Climate Change Initiatives

• California's Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 (AB 32)

• Governor’s Executive Order

• Strategies for reducing GHG emissions outlined in Scoping Plan •  Included Tractor-Trailer GHG Regulation

16

California Authority to Regulate GHG Under Clean Air Act •  In 2007, U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Massachusetts v. EPA that GHGs are covered by the Clean Air Act's definition of air pollutant

• Clean Air Act (CAA) §209(a) and (b) •  §209(a) CAA prevents all states except California from

adopting or attempting to enforce new motor vehicle emissions standards

•  §209(b) EPA must grant California a waiver from the general prohibitions of § 209(a) if California determines its standards are, in the aggregate, at least as protective of public health and welfare as applicable federal standards

17

Climate Change Progress

• California is on target for meeting 2020 GHG reduction goal

• Many GHG measures adopted over last 5 years, including: •  Low Carbon Fuel Standard • Advanced Clean Car standards • Cap-and-Trade • Tractor-Trailer GHG Regulation

•  MVT has and will continue to embrace most regulations related to fuel economy

•  Fuel savings technology is not just good for the environment and the communities we serve—it is good for business

•  Selfishly we would like to see more industry adoption of fuel savings technologies to reduce everyone’s cost per unit and improve ROI

Desires for Future Regulations

•  Let the market decide through voluntary programs like Smartway

• Make sure regulations reduce net emissions • Considerable opportunity to meet political objectives

through the mandate of Biodiesel •  Per US EPA, there is up to an 86% reduction in greenhouse gas

emissions by substituting petrochemical diesel with Biodiesel •  All terminal fueling at our main terminal in El Paso has been with

B20 Biodiesel since 2012—over 500k gallons per month

Fleets want…

To know how a technology will perform in their fleet

To know the trade-offs (e.g., weight, maintenance time, driver acceptance) for fuel savings?

Understanding top performance limits

Simple sources of information and a say in the program

Listening to stakeholders

Manufacturers want… Apples-to-apples comparisons of technology performance

Innovative standardized test methods that provide flexibility and reduce burden

Potential for other types of technologies
