(SACRAMENTO – June 3, 2013) “Today’s ruling is further support for the state’s momentum towards a lower carbon, more sustainable transportation fuel system. The Court clearly recognized the importance of the standard and the need to reduce carbon pollution, while protecting investments in alternative fuels that have already been made.”
