Consumer choice of fuel provided, rulemaking authority modified, and Clean Car rules eliminated.
HF 3345 eliminates Minnesota's Clean Car rules and prohibits state agencies from adopting rules that restrict consumer choice of fuel types for specific motorized equipment. The bill directly affects consumers, retailers, and manufacturers by banning requirements for retailers to stock certain fuel types (like electric or gas) and preventing rules that limit which fuel sources consumers can purchase for items such as generators, lawn mowers, snowmobiles, and passenger vehicles. Key provisions include repealing specific Clean Car rulemaking authority (Minnesota Rules parts 7023.0150-7023.0300) and explicitly prohibiting agency rules that mandate fuel-source-based inventory or restrict fuel choices. This bill modifies regulatory authority to prioritize consumer choice over fuel-source mandates for the listed equipment categories.
