Policy priorities will shape a feebate: whether it targets greenhouse gas emission, oil consumption, or criteria pollutant emission; the selection of the set of subject vehicles; revenue objectives; manufacturer impacts: and equity.

A bill was signed directing the Commissioner of Environmental Protection to “develop a plan for the implementation” of a feebate by Governor in June 2005.
