— To further reduce transportation emissions and accelerate the adoption of zero-emission vehicles , the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection on December 30, 2021, announced emergency regulations have been filed with the Secretary of the Commonwealth’s office to immediately adopt California’s Advanced Clean Trucks regulation, which requires an increasing percentage of ZEV truck sales starting with Model Year 2025 and ramping up through Model Year 2035, accelerating the market...
Massachusetts law requires the Commonwealth to adopt California motor vehicle emissions standards as long as those standards achieve, in the aggregate, greater emissions reductions than federal standards. Massachusetts first adopted the California Low Emission Vehicle program regulations in 1991 and has amended it many times to remain identical to the California LEV program.
Emergency authorization of the regulation was needed as the federal Clean Air Act requires states that adopt the California standards to do so at least two model years before the standards take effect – in this case, January 1, 2022 for vehicles labeled as Model Year 2025, which starts on January 1, 2024.
Massachusetts will see many health, climate, and economic benefits of the medium- and heavy-duty rules by 2050, including:
