Changes in emissions by Scoping Plan sector between 2000 and 2017. Emissions from all other sectors have remained relatively constant in recent years, although emissions from high Global Warming Potential (GWP) gases have continued to increase as they replace Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) banned under the 1987 Montreal Protocol.

As part of a US Department of Energy sponsored effort, local fleets will replace existing diesel delivery vehicles with all-electric medium- and heavy-duty Smith Newton trucks for daily operations in the Houston-Galveston area. Each Smith Newton will be delivered with an electric vehicle charging station (EVSE).

Further, the agency said, technical progress has been made in developing technologies and approaches that can reduce NO x emissions beyond the standards put in place in the 2000 rule. (In the final HD Phase 2 rule, EPA had noted the evidence supporting the need for more stringent national NO x emissions standards.).

Meanwhile, environmentalists were voicing concern—about how noisy such aircraft are taking off, about the possibility that their high-altitude emissions would erode the ozone layer, and about how disruptive the sonic booms would be. Fourteen production aircraft were manufactured, but one was scrapped in 1994 and another crashed in 2000.).

The US EPA estimates the normal fleet turnover rate for a line-haul locomotive can take 30 years or more. In 2000, the ARB established California’s Diesel Risk Reduction Plan, which aims to reduce diesel emissions to 85% below 2000 levels by 2020. NO x helps create ground-level ozone, or smog.

Global trends in vehicle-kilometers traveled (VKT) and early deaths from vehicle-related fine particle exposure (2000–2030). Next-generation standards would target new reductions in emissions of NO x and non-methane hydrocarbons (HC), which are precursors to ozone and secondary particulate matter. Chambliss et al.
