Transportation Emissions Proposals from the 110th Congress
H.R. 2088:
Safe, Accountable, Flexible, and Efficient Transportation Equity Act of 2003, which, among other things, would establish a multimodal energy and climate change program to study the relationship of energy, transportation, and climate change, and call for the development of strategies to reduce GHG emissions from transportation. Introduced at the request of the Bush Administration.
Sponsor:
Rep. Don Young (R-AK)
(3 Cosponsors)
H.R. 2115:
The Aviation Administration FY2004-2006 Authorizations Act as in the conference report, which, among other things, would develop a research and implementation plan for the application of emerging aircraft technologies that would minimize the effects on climate change per unit of production of thrust and flight speed. (See S. 824. The House-passed version of H.R. 2115 did not include the climate change-related provision).
Sponsor:
Rep. Don Young (R-AK)
(3 Cosponsors)
H.R. 2771:
Second Century of Flight Act, which, among other things, would require the Federal Aviation Administration to develop a research plan for emerging technologies that minimize the effects on climate change per unit of production of thrust and flight speed; and require NASA to develop a research plan to enable commercial aircraft to significantly reduce CO2 emissions.
Sponsor:
Rep. Todd Tiahrt (R-KS)
(1 Cosponsors)
H.R. 3551:
Surface Transportation Research and Development Act of 2003, which, among other things, would establish a multimodal energy and climate change program to study the relationship of energy, transportation, and climate change, and call for the development of strategies to reduce GHG emissions from transportation.
Sponsor:
Rep. Vernon Ehlers (R-MI)
H.R. 3577:
Intelligent Transportation Systems Act of 2003, which, among other things, would establish a multimodal energy and climate change program to study the relationship of energy, transportation, and climate change, and call for the development of strategies to reduce GHG emissions from transportation.
Sponsor:
Rep. Vernon Ehlers (R-MI)
H.R. 586:
Aeronautics Research and Development Revitalization Act of 2003, which, among other things, finds that an aggressive federal initiative to develop technologies to reduce aircraft noise, harmful emissions, and fuel consumption would benefit the United States by reducing the rate at which greenhouse gases are added to the atmosphere by aircraft.
(31 Cosponsors)
S. 1071:
Biofuels Air Quality Act, which promotes use of renewable fuels by, among other things, requiring consideration of the extent to which a proposed project under the congestion mitigation and air quality improvement program reduces atmospheric carbon emissions.
Sponsor:
Sen. Christopher S. Bond (R-MO)
(1 Cosponsors)
S. 892:
Clean and Renewable Fuels Act, which phases out the use of methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) in fuel to promote the use of renewable fuels, and requires a report on the resulting greenhouse gas emission reductions.
(1 Cosponsors)
H.R. 2088:
Biofuels Air Quality Act, which promotes use of renewable fuels by, among other things, requiring consideration of the extent to which a proposed project under the congestion mitigation and air quality improvement program reduces atmospheric carbon emissions.
