"The mandate imposes undue burdens on the motorcoach and travel industries without addressing critical operational, infrastructure and economic concerns," according to an ABA press release. "If EPA grants the CARB a waiver, other states are lined up to adopt and enforce the same requirements, which would expand the negative impact across the motorcoach and group travel industries."
"The motorcoach industry has long been at the forefront of innovation and environmental sustainability, leading efforts to adopt cleaner technologies like clean diesel engines and creating efficiencies through group and carpool travel," ABA President and CEO Fred Ferguson said. "We are proud of our role in reducing emissions and minimizing the environmental impact of transportation. However, CARB's ACF rule is being implemented too quickly, without adequate consideration of the unique operational and economic realities of our industry."
