• Supported Congressional Review Act (CRA) resolutions that overturned Biden-era rules granting Clean Air Act waivers to California including (1) the Advanced Clean Cars II (ACC II) rule, which attempted to ban internal combustion engine vehicles by 2035; (2) the Advanced Clean Trucks rule; and (3) California’s heavy-duty NOx emissions standards. (Savings: Billions of dollars)
• Hailed a significant victory regarding the PHMSA rule that allows energy marketers to display the identification number of the fuel with the lowest flash point transported during the current or previous business day, streamlining operations and reducing unnecessary compliance burdens. (Savings: $2,000 per cargo tank)
• Secured a significant win when the PHMSA officially withdrew its proposal to raise annual hazardous materials registration fees. (Savings: $125 per small business)
• Secured language in all future hours of service waivers clarifying that drivers are not subject to ticketing simply for passing through a state not covered by the regional waiver while delivering fuel in direct response to an emergency.  Also, worked with Congress in sending a letter to FMCSA urging implementation of a preemptive and proactive policy for hours of service (HOS) exemptions to ensure the seamless delivery of essential motor fuels during major disasters, hurricanes, and regional emergencies.
• Filed objections to another proposed settlement of a swipe fee case brought by a merchant class that accepted Visa or Mastercard credit cards between December 18, 2020, and the present. A federal court in New York rejected an earlier version of the settlement, and EMA views the new one now before the court as equally bad for merchants. EMA also continues to fight for passage of the Credit Card Competition Act (CCCA).
• Cautioned EPA against bypassing established safeguards to fast-track natural gas pipeline approvals based on outdated assumptions that it displaces “dirty” heating oil. EMA urged EPA to consider unintended financial consequences of promoting the rapid expansion of natural gas infrastructure through favorable permitting policies – such as diminished competition, suppressed environmental innovation through modern liquid heating fuels, increased barriers for small businesses, higher costs for ratepayers, and potential impacts on grid reliability.
• Defeated EPA’s proposed rule that would have mandated the installation of gasoline vapor balancing equipment at virtually every small/intermediate bulk storage plant and loading cargo tank wagon across the country. (Savings: Based on EMA surveys — $120,000 – $250,000 per facility)
• Supported the Transportation Security Screening Modernization Act that would eliminate costly background check redundancies within the Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC), Hazardous Materials Endorsement (HME), and TSA PreCheck programs.
• Increased the daily maximum air mile radius and on duty time allowed short-haul drivers (Savings: $9,800 per marketer per year)
• EMA’s low liquid level integrity test as an alternative method for containment sump testing (Savings: $14,330 per UST sump every 3 years)
• Reduced EPA’s UST inspection and testing compliance costs with alternative procedures. Won lower cost alternative procedures (Savings: $7,855 per station per year)
• Defeated electronic HOS logging device mandate for short-haul drivers (Savings: $8,547 per marketer per year)
