EGR vs. SCR * USA - Navistar presses legal fight against SCR

Warrensville,ILL,USA -eTrucker, by Avery Vise -15 July 2009: -- Navistar is turning up the heat in its ongoing litigation against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, charging the agency is trying to manipulate the record in the case to hide what Navistar calls EPA’s “secret collaboration” with truck and engine makers to advance selective catalytic reduction for 2010 emissions compliance... In its latest filing, Navistar argues EPA’s new index improperly removes many documents from the original index, “including documents likely to reveal EPA’s own conclusions effectively confirming the merits” of the lawsuit. Navistar says the documents removed reveal the “inefficacy and environmental hazard” posted by SCR, which EPA had called infeasible in 2001 “but later authorized in secret collaboration with certain engine makers outside of rulemaking”... Specifically, Navistar charges the driver inducements incorporated into the Feb. 18 guidance to encourage truck drivers to add diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) were drafted for EPA by the Engine Manufacturers Association...
