EPA settles Ford car certification scare with conditional shipping
EPA chief William Ruckelshaus proposed that Ford may distribute 1973 cars to dealers pending a shorter antipollution retest, avoiding a full shutdown that could lay off up to 450,000 workers. Final certification still required. The move ties to broader pollution standards and economic indicators show mixed improvements.
