It opened the J-Church streetcar line along a scenic route through Dolores Park and over the hill to Noe Valley, and it introduced its first motor buses, after five years of operating streetcars exclusively. This year, for the sixth annual Muni Heritage Weekend, the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency, which owns and operates Muni, and Market Street Railway, the SFMTA’s nonprofit preservation partner, are joining to celebrate these dual centennials, and mounting a variety of displays and related events to celebrate the positive ongoing role of public transit in the city. “Public transportation is what has kept San Francisco moving and growing developing for well over a century, and is more important today than ever,” says Ed Reiskin, SFMTA Director of Transportation. “Our displays will show just how important Muni has been not only to the city’s past and present, but will also show its vital importance to San Francisco’s future.” On September 9 and 10, from 10 a.m.

  • Duty Truck Emissions Standards
    NADA COMMENTS TO NHTSA/EPA RE: MY 2017-2025 PROPOSED STANDARDS Exhibit B A LOOK BACK AT EPA’S COST AND OTHER IMPACT PROJECTIONS FOR MY 2004-2010 HEAVY-DUTY TRUCK EMISSIONS STANDARDS Calpin and Plaza-Jennings 2/13/2012 1 A LOOK BACK AT EPA’S COST AND OTHER IMPACT PROJECTIONS FOR MY 2004-2010 HEAVY-DUTY TRUCK EMISSIONS STANDARDS Patrick Calpin, Esteban Plaza-Jennings American Truck Dealers February 2012 ABSTRACT: In 1997, 2000, and 2001, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published rules establishing a series of new emissions mandates for heavy-duty trucks to be phased-in between model years (MY) 2004 and 2010.1 Typical of EPA’s motor vehicle standards, these “technology forcing” mandates analyzed the development and implementation of new emission control strategies and technologies. The adoption of these new control strategies and technologies directly resulted in higher prices for new heavy-duty trucks. These mandates also resulted in significantly higher operating costs, attributable largely to increased maintenance requirements, reduced reliability, and lower fuel economy. Together, these higher prices and operating costs led to significant disruptions in the new truck marketplace. These included significant layoffs caused by unprecedented truck pre-buys and sales “cliffs,” capital constraints for truck and engine manufacturers (OEMs), suppliers, and dealers; and the departure of certain businesses from the heavy-duty truck market. This paper examines the degree to which, and possible reasons why, EPA’s estimated regulatory impact dramatically underestimated real world costs of the regulation. An analysis of actual sales data, including cost escalators associated with the MY 2004-10 standards, shows that EPA underestimated compliance costs by a factor of 2-5.
