WASHINGTON (Reuters) – A group representing heavy-duty truck and engine companies withdrew a lawsuit it filed against the California Air Resources Board (CARB), court records show.
The Truck and Engine Manufacturers Association said on Thursday that its lawsuit was intended to ensure California regulators provide manufacturers at least four years of lead time before implementing new heavy-duty engine emission standards.
The group said it wants the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, which must grant a waiver for California to proceed, to confirm federal lead-time requirement applies to CARB.
