Bill Summary

This bill proposes to delay by five years the requirements of the Advanced Clean Truck rule. The rule would apply starting with model year 2031 trucks.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to delay the implementation of the Advanced Clean Truck (ACT) rule by five years. The Advanced Clean Truck rule is a regulation aimed at reducing emissions from trucks by requiring manufacturers to gradually increase the percentage of zero-emission trucks in their sales. Originally set to begin with model year 2031 trucks, this bill would effectively push back the start date of these requirements. While the specific details of the implementation delay are not fully provided in the XML document, the government summary indicates a straightforward five-year postponement of the rule's requirements. The bill appears to be part of a broader effort to provide additional time for truck manufacturers, businesses, and infrastructure to prepare for the transition to zero-emission trucks, potentially addressing concerns about the pace of technological development, economic impact, or readiness of charging/fueling infrastructure for electric or alternative fuel trucks.
