Calif. Governor Threatens EPA Lawsuit
California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger gave the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency six months to issue a waiver allowing a state clean air law to take effect.
“The clock is ticking,” the governor said, according to a story in the Los Angeles Times. “If we don’t see quick action from the federal government, we will sue the U.S. EPA.”
The state first sought a waiver in December 2005 after the state passed the law restricting greenhouse gases from vehicles.
