EPA plans tougher fuel rules to curb smog and warming
The EPA will unveil plans for cleaner burning gasoline and a new tailpipe rule to cut urban smog and greenhouse gases by 2004 under the Clean Air Act. Auto makers will phase in cleaner cars next year, with emission cuts of 50 to 70 percent, but industry officials say sulfur in gasoline must drop to California levels since 1996 to achieve the full benefits. Refiners are urged to reduce sulfur to 30 ppm on average with no more than 80 ppm per fuel.
