This rulemaking adopted California Air Resources Board amendments to heavy-duty engine and vehicle exhaust emission standards to maintain identicality with CARB rules for new medium- and heavy-duty vehicles sold in Oregon. This rulemaking also adopted a 1-year implementation delay which replaced the temporary rule adopted by the EQC on Nov. 16, 2023. This action provides manufacturers and buyers compliance certainty and add additional flexibilities to the legacy engine sales allowances for engine model year 2025 and 2026.

DEQ convened an advisory committee to review the technical issues and fiscal impacts related to the proposed rules. In convening this committee, DEQ appointed members that reflect the range of entities that are both directly and indirectly affected by proposed changes to the rules.​
