United StatesBill would move the Diesel Emissions Reduction Act's end date from 2024 to 2029
If it becomes law, this bill would change a date in the federal Diesel Emissions Reduction Act from 2024 to 2029, so the program's authority would run five years longer.
What it does
The bill swaps the year 2024 for 2029 in the section of federal law that sets the Diesel Emissions Reduction Act's end date.
Argument forA later end date could keep the program's authority from running out in 2024, which may give those that use it more time to plan.
Argument againstMoving the date to 2029 could keep the program on the books longer without a fresh look at whether it should continue as written.
More detail
Congress would replace the year 2024 with 2029 in Section 797(a) of the Energy Policy Act of 2005. This is the section of federal law tied to the Diesel Emissions Reduction Act.
