At this virtual stakeholder meeting and listening session, the public is invited to learn more about the Advanced Clean Trucks program and discuss their ideas and questions with DEQ staff.
Elementis Chromium, Inc. has agreed to a Special Order by Consent (SOC) with the North Carolina Environmental Management Commission (EMC) to allow the facility to continue to operate while DAQ is processing its air permit renewal application.
Governor Roy Cooper has designated the N.C. Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) to manage North Carolina’s share of the VW Settlement, an agreement between the German automaker and the U.S. Department of Justice on behalf of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). North Carolina’s beneficiary mitigation plan is structured in two phases, so DEQ can seek additional input and make changes as needed along the way. In Phase 1, nearly $30 million was awarded for projects across North Carolina. In Phase 2, the state plans to invest the remaining $67 million in additional projects.
The N.C. Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) will hold a series of information and listening sessions with stakeholders in the coming months before proposing new rules for an Advanced Clean Trucks (ACT) program in North Carolina.
On October 25, 2022, Governor Cooper signed Executive Order 271, which, along with other directives, charged DEQ to initiate the rulemaking process for the Advanced Clean Trucks rule and propose the rule for consideration to the Environmental Management Commission (EMC).
