Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction

62-285 - Florida Clean Car Emission Rule (Adoption of California Motor Vehicle Emission Standards)

The Florida Clean Car Emission Rule, 62-285.400, F.A.C., became effective on February 15, 2009. This rule, however, will only apply to future makes and models of passenger cars, light-duty trucks, and sport utility vehicles. The first motor vehicles that will be subject to this rule are those from two model years after both of the following conditions have been met: (1) the U.S. EPA has granted the state of California a waiver for their automotive greenhouse gas standards, and (2) the Florida Legislature has ratified this rule. On June 30, 2009, the U.S. EPA granted the California waiver, but the Florida Legislature has not yet ratified this rule. Therefore, the Florida Clean Car Emission Rule does not currently apply to any motor vehicle delivered to Florida for sale, lease, or rent.
