The bill also requires discussion of the impact on consumers, small business, regional economies, state, local, and tribal governments, local an industry-specific labor markets and agriculture.
The bill also increases and extends appropriations of diesel emissions reductions for FY 2012-2016 as set forth in the Energy Policy Act of 2005.
