Auto Dealers Appeal EPA's Granting California Right to Regulate Emissions. By Ken Thomas, AP, September 10, 2009. "Auto dealers and business leaders on Thursday appealed a decision by the Environmental Protection Agency that allowed California to establish the nation's first greenhouse gas standards for cars and trucks, setting the stage for a potential attempt to block the global warming rules. The National Automobile Dealers Association and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce asked the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit to review the EPA's decision. The EPA in July granted California's request for a waiver allowing it to push tougher air pollution rules. The EPA's decision cleared the way for California to implement a 2002 state pollution law requiring tougher fuel efficiency requirements in new cars trucks by 2016."
