The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) finalized a rule that will cut nitrogen dioxide emissions by 50% by 2045 on new heavy-duty trucks, a move that will substantially hike operating costs for truckers, and will be passed on to everyone. The EPA’s rule is intended to push truckers to phase out diesel-powered vehicles and use electric vehicles (EV) instead. Compliance costs associated with such rules could suffocate an industry, squeezing out small and mid-size trucking companies that cannot afford to transition to EVs.
The agency’s trucking rules are less strict than California’s regulations as heavy vehicles in the state must cut nitrogen oxide emissions by 75% starting in 2024, and 90% starting in 2027, according to a California Air Resource Board rule. California’s trucking regulations were responsible for choking the supply chain during COVID as non-compliant trucks were not allowed in to ports and ships were backed up unable to unload.
The Environmental Protection Agency finalized a rule Tuesday that will impose stricter emissions standards on new heavy-duty vehicles, a regulation that will significantly raise operating costs for truckers, experts and industry representatives told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
“The costs associated with this are also a concern because these are costs that not only the industry will bear … prices will go up for everybody,” Texas Trucking Association President John Esparza told the DCNF.
“It’s an overreach that is indicative of this administration’s tendency to set aside balance to achieve the goals of activists that they are politically aligned with,” Mandy Gunasekara, a senior policy analyst for the Independent Women’s Forum and former EPA Chief of Staff during the Trump administration, told the DCNF.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) finalized a rule Tuesday that will impose stricter nitrogen dioxide emissions standards on new heavy-duty trucks, a move that will substantially hike operating costs for truckers, experts and industry representatives told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
The EPA’s rule, which is more than 80% stricter than the previous regulation, will require large trucks, delivery vans and buses manufactured after 2027 to cut nitrogen dioxide emissions by nearly 50% by 2045, according to an agency press release. The agency’s rule is intended to push truckers to phase out diesel-powered vehicles and use electric vehicles (EV) instead; however, the compliance costs associated with such rules could suffocate an industry that is not ready to transition to EVs, experts told the DCNF.
“It’s an overreach that is indicative of this administration’s tendency to set aside balance to achieve the goals of activists that they are politically aligned with,” Mandy Gunasekara, a senior policy analyst for the Independent Women’s Forum and former EPA Chief of Staff during the Trump administration, told the DCNF. “It’s going to squeeze out the mid-sized and smaller trucking companies because they’re not going to be able to afford to purchase the new, extremely expensive equipment required to continue to do what they do.”
The new rules are intended to phase out older trucks that emit more nitrogen dioxide and will push drivers to purchase electric trucks or newer models of diesel trucks that do not produce as much nitrogen dioxide when they burn fuel, according to the EPA.
“If small business truckers can’t afford the new, compliant trucks, they’re going to stay with older, less efficient trucks or leave the industry entirely,” Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association President Todd Spencer told trade publication Freight Waves. “Once again, EPA has largely ignored the warnings and concerns raised by truckers in this latest rule.”

A prior injunction blocked the mandate in January 2022, only a few months after Biden issued the order, but nearly 98% of covered employees had already been vaccinated.

DeSouza said that the cabal of money lenders from “banking bloodlines” has dominion over the UAPs and is building a campaign of fear.

These monsters deliver enough energy to blow apart the master transformers that supply the planet’s energy grids. When that happens, the lights go out for longer than anyone wants to think about.

A Tesla Model S spontaneously went up in flames in California over the weekend as the battery compartment caught fire while the vehicle was traveling at freeway speeds. The blaze required roughly 6,000 gallons of water to put out the electric fire as battery cells continued to combust.
California plans to ban the sale of new natural gas space heaters and water heating equipment by 2030. The California Air Resources Board (CARB), an unelected bureaucracy, voted unanimously and hopes other states will follow its model. Heat pump technology works entirely off of electricity and does have limitations.

This is not shocking at all, when you realize that the real purpose of the EPA is the US implementation of the 7th plank of the Communist Manifesto, that is designed to destroy the free market ~MFP
…or the rule will energize the big truck repair industry… b/c the sound of the rule is that it applies only to buying new vehicles…
Consequently we’ll probably see the criminals in charge of destroying the American energy independence, do even more stupid things to ramp up the price of diesel to force bankruptcy on resisters…
Brace for it……. UNLESS we can get JUSTICE in the Election Integrity wars…

Maybe carbon dioxide as a hazardous pollutant (actually is an essential compound for sustaining life) has lost its luster, so we’re now hearing a lot about NITROGEN dioxide as the newest flavor-of-the-month globalist canard. Hmmm… I guess that means that we can’t have nitrogen fertilizer or diesel engines anymore. As a fun fact, the most abundant gases in our atmosphere are nitrogen (#1) and oxygen (#2).
