As reported by The Sacramento Bee:
Assembly Bill 1346 directs the California Air Resources Board to phase out the sale of small off-road engines by 2024 or as soon as feasible, whichever comes later. The new law also directs the board to identify and make available, where feasible, funding for commercial rebates to go toward the purchase of electric equipment.According to the Los Angeles Times, the legislation
"requires all newly sold small-motor equipment primarily used for landscaping to be zero-emission - essentially to be battery-operated or plug-in."Those who are against the measure have said it will create more difficulty for people who work in the landscaping and gardening businesses.
"New portable gas-powered generators also must be zero-emission by 2028, which also could be delayed at the discretion of the state agency."
The new law applies to any engine that produces less than 25 gross horsepower, including lawn mowers, weed trimmers, chain saws, golf carts, specialty vehicles, generators and pumps. It does not apply to on-road motor vehicles, off-road motorcycles, all-terrain vehicles, boats, snowmobiles or model airplanes, cars or boats."
Comment: California is going to be SO SORRY they kept his ego in charge.
