Published on: 6051944. The purpose and effect of the proposed new rule section is to implement emission standards for new passenger cars, light-duty trucks, and medium-duty vehicles. The proposed rule establishes low emission vehicle standards and greenhouse gas standards. As required by the Clean Air Act, the proposed motor vehicle emission standards are identical to the California standards, and the proposed rule incorporates by reference many sections of title 13 of the California Code of Regulations. The proposed rule exempts emergency vehicles, military vehicles, specially constructed vehicles (kit cars), and vehicles designed exclusively for off-road use.
Implementation of the proposed rule will begin no sooner than two model years after the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) grants a waiver (i.e., approves) California’s greenhouse gas standards. Prior to implementation, Florida legislation ratifying this rule must also be effective.

The notice of rule development was published July 27, 2007. The purpose of this workshop is to offer rule proposals and to present an opportunity for interested persons to provide comments and recommendations to the department as we continue this rulemaking process.; Tuesday, March 18, 2008, 10:00 a.m.; Department of Environmental Protection, Carr Building, Room 170, 3800 Commonwealth Blvd., Tallahassee, Florida.
