Quote from: For Green Heat
It is widely expected that part of the relief that EPA will be providing to industry is a three-year delay in the emission standards that were  set to take effect in June 2020.  Republicans in the House of Representatives had already passed legislation for a three-year delay, but the Senate has not.  A court filingby the EPA said that it “intends to take final action on this first proposed rule by this fall,” and that would allow manufacturers to slow down their R&D and certification testing.

Kinda bullcrap if they delay it, a lot of companies spent a lot of money in R&D to meet the standards that were supposed to come out in 2020.

There was some talk of changing test methods too. I wish they could pick something for the next 10 years or so.
