Summary
The EPA is proposing to reject Ohio's plan for how companies verify their vehicle emissions testing. This means Ohio would have to follow federal emissions standards instead of using its own verification method, which could affect how cars are tested for pollution in the state.
Key Points

- 2If the EPA's disapproval is finalized, Ohio would have to use federal emissions testing requirements instead of its own state system
- 3This could change how vehicle emissions testing works for Ohio residents and auto repair shops that perform these tests
- 4The public has until January 13, 2026 to submit comments supporting or opposing this proposed disapproval
- 5Vehicle emissions standards affect air quality and pollution levels that impact public health
