CARB Approves Off-Road Diesel Amendments
A win for the industry, these changes provide much needed financial relief
It's official, last Friday the California Air Resources Board (CARB) voted unanmiously to adopt amendements to the on-road and off-road diesel vehcicle regulations and will delay implmentation for all fleets by at least four years.
The off-road regulation will reduce costs by 97 percent over the next 5 years; expand or extend credits for businesses that comply before their deadline or have downsized; and, ease annual requirements to clean up engines. For more details on the Off-Road Regulation, please see: http://www.arb.ca.gov/ordiesel.
As reported on Friday, CARB also approved the low use mileage exemption for on-road diesel vehicles raising the limit from 1,000 miles to 15,000 miles. For more details on the Statewide Truck and Bus Regulation, please see: http://www.arb.ca.gov/dieseltruck.
