Low Emissions Vehicles 2018 Fiscal Advisory Committee
​Oregon is one of the Section 177 states that has opted in to California’s vehicle emission standards. The Clean Air Act requires that opt-in states keep their rule requirements identical to California’s vehicle emission program. This rulemaking amends Oregon’s rules to reflect the latest changes in California’s program.

DEQ has convened an fiscal advisory committee to consider the fiscal and economic impact of the proposed rules including: 
 
  • Whether the rules will have a fiscal impact, and if so, what the extent of that impact will be.
  • Whether the rules will have a significant adverse impact on small businesses, and if so, how DEQ can reduce the rules’ negative fiscal impact on small businesses.
