The Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control proposed to adopt 7 Del. Admin. Code §1140, Delaware's National Low Emission Vehicle Regulation. The regulation would add a state Low Emission Vehicle program, incorporating the requirements of California's program, and mandating that only California-certified vehicles may be legally sold in the state starting in 2013. The Department said that, after extensive research with local car dealers, the highest percentage of non-California Air Resources Board certified cars available on any lot was 10%, while the majority of dealers had zero, one, or two vehicles without the certification. There will be a public hearing on October 22, 2010. http://regulations.delaware.gov/register/october2010/proposed/14%20DE%20Reg%20264%2010-01-10.htm#P9_218.
