The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has approved California's request to update its small off-road engine regulations. These updates, made by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) in 2016 and 2021, aim to reduce pollution emissions from engines used in equipment like lawnmowers and leaf blowers. The new standards, starting in 2024, will require most of these engines to emit zero emissions. The EPA granted this authorization because California's regulations are as protective of public health as the current federal standards and are necessary due to California's unique environmental challenges.
