the Act if such fuel standard is adopted and implemented regionally

costly or impracticable and the commissioner has included such measure
in the implementation plan pursuant to section 7410 of the Act.

title, if required to maintain compliance with the Act.
5. The department shall certify emission reduction credits and

7503(c) of the Act. Such rules and regulations shall include provision
for cooperating with the commissioner of motor vehicles pursuant to
paragraph one of subdivision (d) of section 301 of the vehicle and
