CCCE supports regulation of the last mile ecommerce warehouses that are increasing in numbers, generate significant air emissions and are clustered in environmental justice communities. This testimony supports “Int 1130-2024” a NYC City Council bill that would require the Commissioner of the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) to promulgate an “Indirect Source Rule” to reduce emissions attributable to indirect sources, such as warehouses or other structures that attract mobile sources of air pollution from trucks and other vehicles.
