Bill > S08099

This bill postpones the implementation and enforcement of Advanced Clean Cars II (ACC II) regulations by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC). Specifically, the bill prevents the DEC from requiring automobile manufacturers to sell an increasing percentage of zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) before January 1, 2028. Advanced Clean Cars II is a California-originated regulatory framework designed to gradually increase the proportion of electric and zero-emission vehicles sold by car manufacturers, with the goal of reducing carbon emissions from the transportation sector. By delaying the enforcement of these regulations, the bill effectively gives car manufacturers more time to adapt to the ZEV sales requirements. The bill would take effect immediately upon passage, and it overrides any existing laws, rules, or regulations that might conflict with its provisions.
