One of my least favorite Bush Acts gets repealed

Yay. Just read on TreeHugger that the EPA has finally agreed to let California imposed emissions-standards that exceed the federal requirements. It's about time the Environmental part of EPA stood up.

We knew it was coming--one of Obama's first moves was to order the review Bush's decision to prevent California from setting fuel emissions standards. Then, Obama announced he was setting a national standard--one that would take cues from California's plan. And now, the cycle is complete: today, California will officially receive permission from the EPA to set its own fuel emissions standard.
