Obama seeks tougher clean air standards.

CARB Certification
TxLED fuel standards may be satisfied by a CARB-certified alternative diesel fuel formulation, or by fuel that complies with certain California fuel regulations in accordance with 30 TAC §114.312(e). Please refer to the Draft Regulatory Guidance document for the specific requirements.

This is from the current TxLED standard. As you can see, it says "may" be satisfied, not "must" be satisfied. I trust the standard as written by TCEQ, which is the source of the TxLED program, more than your quote. No misrepresentation here. Here is the link to the standard:

Yeah, well perhaps you'll trust the United States Supreme Court...

Quote :

Under Section 209 of the Clean Air Act, no State
except for California is permitted to set emissions standards
for motor vehicles. See 42 U.S.C. § 7543(a). California
may adopt its own standards so long as those
standards are no less protective of public health than
federal standards and it applies for a waiver of preemption
from the EPA.

Clear enough for you?

Thank you.
I was not even questioning his claims; I was simply pointing out that his link did not support his claims. I saw no reason to freak out over something so minor.

In my next post, I admitted that you were correct. At least this exchange proves one thing. The administrator is not biased towards me.
