| Subject | Ford Motor Company Response to CARB 15-Day Notice to Amend GHG Standards |
| Comment | Ford Motor Company (Ford) appreciates the opportunity to comment on the California Air Resources Board's (CARB's) proposed modifications to section 1961.1 "Greenhouse Gas Exhaust Emission Standards and Test Procedures – 2009 and Subsequent Model Passenger Cars, Light-Duty Trucks, and Medium-Duty Vehicles", dated January 7, 2010. Ford supports CARB's intent to permit compliance with California Greenhouse Gas (GHG) standards based on a manufacturer's ability to comply the Federal GHG Emissions Standards. As previously recommended in the Ford September 15, 2009 and December 9, 2009 comments on the CARB proposed amendments, Ford offers the attached comments in support of the use of Federal CAFE data to demonstrate compliance with the California GHG standards, with suggested regulatory language changes that would implement our comments. We also offer comments on some areas where the proposed regulations present some timing concerns. Ford welcomes the opportunity to discuss this information in detail with CARB staff. |
