For several years, CRC worked in partnership with a few other agricultural groups to intensively focus on California’s Zero-emission Forklift (ZEF) Regulation. In the Summer of 2024, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) formally adopted the regulation after multiple years of work by our coalition resulting in solid regulatory relief for CRC members and all of California agriculture.
