EPA Finds Motor Vehicle Emissions Budgets for Los Angeles-South Coast Air Basin Adequate for Transportation Conformity Purposes

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has determined that the motor vehicle emissions budgets for the Los Angeles-South Coast Air Basin are sufficient for transportation conformity purposes, following a revision to the California State Implementation Plan submitted by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) in 2017. This decision affects the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) and the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), who must use these budgets in future analyses.
