2127-AI70 (December 13, 2002)
Draft
Environmental Assessment
With the lifting of the Congressional freeze on CAFE standards in
December 2001, NHTSA is proposing new CAFE standards for MY 2005-2007
light trucks. To satisfy the requirements of the National Environmental
Policy Act (NEPA), NHTSA, with the assistance of the John A Volpe
National Transportation System Center, drafted this Draft Environmental
Assessment, assessing the potential environmental impacts associated
with the proposed action. (December 13, 2002)
Preliminary
Economic Assessment
This assessment examines the costs and benefits of improving the
fuel economy of light trucks for model years (MY) 2005-2007. It
includes a discussion of the technologies that can improve fuel
economy, the potential impact on light truck retail prices and lifetime
discounted fuel savings, and the gallons of fuel that could be potentially
saved. (December 13, 2002)
