EPA Abandons California Gas Ration Plan Plans
The EPA moves to abandon its heavy gasoline rationing scheme for California cities while keeping other controls. Administrator Russell Train says changes to the law are needed to ease deadlines and allow discretion but notes no rush to alter clean air standards. Parking management and surcharges remain central to the plan, with enforcement if local governments fail to implement.
