Cars, trucks, and other transportation-related equipment account for approximately half of the air pollutant emissions in the United States. Common air pollutants from these "mobile sources" include carbon monoxide, volatile organic compounds, nitrogen oxides (NOx), and other hazardous air pollutants. Automobile manufacturers are subject to the requirements of the federal Clean Air Act (CAA), which regulates mobile source emissions with the overall goal of protecting public health with an adequate margin of safety.

Cities, many of which are constantly confronted with dual concerns of equipment maintenance and air quality, can reap benefits from this historic settlement agreement, if they are prepared. This article explores one aspect of the overall VW emissions scandal: the creation of the Environmental Mitigation Trust Fund as part of the 2.0-liter diesel engine vehicle settlement agreement approved by the U.S.
