CARB supports EPA’s final determination that the adopted GHG
standards are appropriate.

EPA action helps secure a low-carbon transportation future



SACRAMENTO — The California Air Resources Board welcomes the EPA
Administrator’s determination that the adopted light-duty vehicle
greenhouse gas (GHG) emission standards for model years (MY)
2022-2025 are appropriate.  In 2012, CARB agreed to a national
program based on federal adoption of GHG reduction standards as
stringent as California’s. EPA’s action today solidifies the
continuance of the national program.  

These standards give the auto industry certainty and are the most
important basis for the transition to further emission reductions
in 2030 and beyond.  

“From the CARB technical team’s perspective, the evidence in
support of the standards is robust and definitive” said Dr.
Alberto Ayala, CARB’s Deputy Executive Officer.   

This final determination is also timely and important as CARB
prepares to consider its own mid-term review of the standards in
March. 

“This progress is the result of an unprecedented national
partnership between California and U.S. EPA,” said CARB Chair
Mary D. Nichols. “We expect that progress to continue under the
adopted regulations and we look forward to working together to
plan for 2025 and beyond.”
