CA EPA Update

Industry Update: California Clean Truck Check

Carriers operating in or traveling through California should be aware of ongoing developments surrounding the state’s Clean Truck Heavy-Duty Inspection & Maintenance regulation. The EPA has issued a final disapproval preventing California from applying these requirements nationwide to out-of-state carriers; however, California continues enforcing the rule for in-state fleets and may still attempt enforcement actions involving interstate operators.

This creates a practical compliance challenge — carriers could still face citations or administrative issues and would need to contest them after the fact.

Lee Trans is assisting fleets with understanding applicability and completing the required registrations where appropriate. If your vehicles (14,001+ lbs., non-gasoline) operate in California, now is the time to review your exposure.
