Bill > A06359

This bill postpones the implementation and enforcement of the Advanced Clean Trucks (ACT) regulations by the New York Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC). Specifically, the bill prevents the DEC from requiring manufacturers of medium-duty and heavy-duty trucks to sell an increasing percentage of zero-emission vehicles before January 1, 2027. The Advanced Clean Trucks regulations are designed to reduce emissions from commercial vehicles by gradually mandating that truck manufacturers sell a growing proportion of electric or zero-emission trucks. By delaying the enforcement until 2027, the bill provides truck manufacturers more time to develop and prepare zero-emission vehicle technologies and production capabilities before being required to meet the regulatory requirements. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage, ensuring an immediate pause on the current ACT regulation implementation timeline.
