The longer-term purpose of the ACC program, according to ARB, is to shape the development of light-duty transportation to contribute to meeting the state’s 2050 GHG reduction goal of 80% below 1990 levels. This rulemaking is an opportunity for the Board to commit to the transformation of California’s light-duty vehicle fleet.
