Advisories

• Drayage Truck Advisory Extension for Truck Replacements and Retrofits (Revised and Expanded) December 8, 2009 that local agencies may now use Prop. 1B funds after January 1, 2010 for retrofits on drayage trucks qualifying for the extension, provided that the retrofits are completed and operational no later than April 30, 2010.  Drayage truck replacement projects can continue to be funded with Prop. 1B monies in 2010.

Suspension of Funding

On December 19, 2008 ARB staff instructed local agencies implementing Prop 1B grants that these agencies must suspend entering into new contracts that would be funded from Prop 1B grant monies or expending funds for signed contracts because ARB is not authorized to approve payments until we have access to funds to cover the Prop 1B programs.

• December 23, 2008 Letter Sent to Local Agencies (PDF)

On June 26, 2009 and February 9, 2010, ARB sent letters to local agencies authorized to restart all projects with the available bond funds.
