Since it's apparent that the California Air Resources Board is responsible for this weakening of pollutant regs, it hearkens back to "Who Killed the Electric Car", and their involvement.
Carlos- Great History lesson! Since the County Pollution District was the first of its kind, the legacy it generated has likely made homogenization among other States difficult, but good for the Region.
This is where I agree with diesel_john, to an extent. The EPA (when operated properly) should be able to ramp-up efforts in hot spots like "The Basin", Denver, and the Northeast Corridor.
Conversely, when they do not (or are not quick enough to respond) States tend to employ their own rules and Governing Bodies, and there you go.
