The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) is updating the ACT and HDO rules to maintain alignment with California and ensure they stay strong. But big oil and truck manufacturer forces are trying to use this process to gut the rules. This is where you come in. Regulators need to hear from you—Oregonians who require clean air, a stable climate, and a thriving economy built around clean technology.
Oregon is at a critical crossroads when it comes to clean transportation. Recently, diesel truck manufacturers and fossil fuel companies have led efforts to slow Oregon's progress toward reducing diesel pollution by delaying the implementation of our state's Advanced Clean Trucks rule. Here's why we need to fight those efforts and why we need to accelerate, not slow down, our transition to clean, pollution-free trucking as an essential step toward reducing diesel pollution and advancing clean transportation technology.
When a big diesel truck passes you by on the highway or in your neighborhood, you can see and smell it. It doesn’t have to be this way.
Oregon shouldn't roll back clean air protections and delay clean trucks.
Make your voice heard today: The legislature must ensure truck makers follow the rules to get rid of dirty diesel and deliver clean air by investing more in clean, zero-emissions trucks and charging.
