Zusammenfassung
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) has notified EPA that it has adopted amendments to its regulations related to zero emission vehicles (ZEVs) in California. By letter dated September 17, 2009, CARB requested that EPA confirm that its amendments as they affect model years 2008-2011 are within-the-scope of previous waivers of preemption issued by EPA. CARB also requests that EPA confirm that amendments as they affect the 2012 and subsequent model years are also within-the-scope of previous waivers of preemption issued by EPA; or, in the alternative, that EPA grant a new waiver of preemption for these future model years. This notice announces that EPA has tentatively scheduled a public hearing concerning California's request and that EPA is accepting written comment on the request.
