"Court Halts EPA Rule Regulating Big Trucks’ Trailers" [1]

"A federal appeals court Friday halted implementation of a portion of an Obama administration regulation that set emissions-reduction standards for trucks’ trailers.

In a brief order regarding the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) rule, the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia said that a trailer industry group “has satisfied the stringent requirements for a stay pending court review.”

At issue is a 2016 regulation that increased fuel efficiency and greenhouse gas standards for heavy-duty trucks."
